The English appreciate the natural and not miraculous beauty of nature. The park becomes part of the surrounding natural landscape, preserving all its characteristics.

Landscaping in Chinese style
The Chinese are people who have nothing to do with kondachka. Its gardens, a whole philosophy, deepened in that, you will find peace of mind and harmony. It was China that made natural art the dominant garden art and taught the rest of the world.
Let’s start with the fact that Chinese gardens are divided into three types:
- Laughing (they give joy, pleasure and fill the soul with warmth);
- Threatening (they show the true and powerful power of nature);
- Idyllic (calm and tune in a meditative mood, restore vitality).
- The Chinese garden has many stylistic subtleties:
In the heart of the garden, as Eastern philosophy requires, there must be five elements: fire, water, stone, air and wood.
The central composition of the garden is a gazebo. This is the main point of concentration of the vital energy of Qi.
The site should be extensive, mountainous, with smooth lines and winding roads.
It is necessary to create the impression that the garden has no end or end. Therefore, the fence is hidden from the eyes.
Humpbacks are an immutable decorative attribute of the Chinese garden. They serve as a ferry across the pond, which must surely look very natural.
It will be beautiful if you plant live fish in a pond. It can be a mirror carp or a golden crucian carp.
The flowers do not grow in flower beds, but in chaotic bushes. Or in wooden tubs and stone.
Special attention must be paid to the stones. In Eastern culture, they are considered living custodians of the past, full of energy. From strangely shaped stones you can create excellent artistic compositions.
Each of the plants planted in the eastern forest also has a certain value. For example, needles – a sign of longevity and any fruit tree – a continuation of the human race. Berezklets, forcing, honeysuckle, climbing roses – all this will become a lovely Chinese-style garden fill.
The power will be determined by the number of square meters of the room that we want to cool. In general, for a room of about 30 square meters you need an air conditioner between 3,000 and 4,000 BTU. The formula to calculate watts is to establish between 100 and 140 BTU per square meter, although everything will depend on the orientation of our house and if we are going to have one or two air conditioners in the room.
Changing the air filter is a relatively simple task. First, you have to locate the filter, which is usually located in appliances placed inside the home. Once located, we will take it out. In case it is covered by a metal band, we will unscrew it, being careful to keep the screws that we have removed safe.
