By saying the garden it's a replica or a representation the author means its a vision in our minds that we create. In other words, as if we arrange a landscape to our commodities making it our creation and depiction of our art.The the two poles of elephantine stasis of the palace shares the ground with the butterfly charm of Marie Antoinette's hameau. Her sylvan glooms hide assissins, and it is a haunted place if only for vividly showing hoe contraries meet or call each other forth in the mind in the the Versailles gardens. A garden is a man made mental picture of a landscape. It's the arrangement and ornament place in this that makes them so pleasing too experience. In contrast a natural garden would be a landscape that nature provides us with and we have preserved and taken care of. In today's society people don't usually pay attention to their surroundings anymore.

Back in Cuba I used to go to a park called "Parque Maceo" which in a part there was a Haha, I didn't know that that type of structure was called like that until this moment. I definitely have a better understanding of what a garden could represent after reading this article. There is a garden around my area called City of Hialeah Garden of Arts. It's located in recidential area. And it's kind of a hidden Jem not a lot of people know about. The garden it's surrounded by art works and it has a park type of feel to it. With a couple of complex benches  you can enjoy the whole atmosphere of tranquility and  beautiful views. I could describe my relationship to it as my inspiration zone. It's a place that I visit where I want to enjoy solitude and a pleasing atmosphere to look at.
