Located at Huayuan Lane in Xuningmen Street of Yangzhou City, east China's Jiangsu province, Ho Family Garden, also named "Jixiao Heights", is regarded as "the most important garden in Late Qing Dynasty". An official surnamed Ho of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) from Hubei Province spent 13 years building it as his residence, hence the garden's name.
