The aim of this research is revealing the spatial relationship between garden pavilions and design of the waterside in eight gardens of Suzhou registered as a World Heritage Sites. By analyzing the spatial patterns in the elevation of the waterside and pavilions, it tries to understand the pond design that is a united spatial vocabulary with the architectural character of pavilions. This spatial relationship is analyzed by constructing graphic of spatial patterns consisting of the elements surveyed in each garden through the field survey. Through the analyses of surveyed data, followings are observed; the pavilion primarily used for viewing the garden and for a rest is arranged with the waterside of natural-shaped rocks, and most of its foundation are combined with waterside by using natural-shaped rocks, and on the other hand, the pavilions for ceremonies and meetings have the waterside with artificial cut stones. This study concludes not only the importance of considering pavilions as a united set with the landscape design of the shore, but also morphological relationship of pavilions with the design of the waterside. Thus, its shape of the foundation is combined with waterside and has strong influence on whole shape and landscape characteristics of the pond.
