Pinsongqiu is located in Daliang County, Shunde in China. It is an amazing garden comprised of predominately Pines hence the name. The main species of Pine is Pinus massoniana and there are over 150 distinctive masterpieces of pine bonsai all created in the Lingna style.

During the majority of our visit it rained but rather than detract from the spectacle it enhanced the colours of the Pines and made the foliage even more pronounced.

Future posts will feature a more in depth look at the pots of the Pines as well as some of the other bonsai species used, in addition to a video of the visit but for now here are some general pictures of our visit with the Bonsai Clubs International (BCI) convention and lunch afterwards too.
