About Shuimu Tsinghua University
水木清华, Chinese idiom, pinyin shuǐ mù qīng huá, originally refers to the scenery of Yuan Jiashan, the official of the Ministry of War of the Ming Dynasty in Sui County, Henan Province. It is used to describe the clear and beautiful garden landscape. Now it also specifically refers to the "水木清华" landscape on the campus of Tsinghua University. This word constructs the artistic conception of the garden through the four elements of water, wood, clearness, and Chinese. The word "Zhan" strengthens the visual effect of the water and light. Its etymology can be traced back to the poem "Shui Mu Zhan Qing Hua" written by Xie Hun in the Eastern Jin Dynasty in "You Xi Chi". The Southern Dynasty's "Book of Song·Yi Yi Zhuan Lun" was renamed "Shui Shi Qing Hua", forming a strange word.
