摘　　要：扬州是两淮盐运枢纽与盐政中心,盐商多为富户,他们流寓于扬州,除了居家营生之外,还有种种商务活动,在旧时代商务又和各种交际宴饮活动分不开,那些富户购地营宅,凿池堆山,以为游寓宴聚之所,亦作为盐商会友交际议事之地,加之园林之作最能体现商户的财富与智慧,各家于是争奇斗艳,极尽奢华之能事,以至明清两代,整个扬州城内外,巨室、亭馆鳞次栉比,其中盐商更是借此炫耀,相互攀比,致使扬州成为园林极盛之地。清乾隆六次南巡扬州,盐商趁此献媚斗富。据载,际时造园47座,沿保障湖(即今瘦西湖)两岸及平山堂一带,盐商造了近30座园林别业,然至清末盐市消停,"盖帝王之踵不至,盐商中落,江淮汜滥,以致歌舞销歇,珠帘泥土",扬州园林也随之衰灭。In ancient China,Yangzhou used to be a centre of salt transportation and administration.Many rich salt merchants gathered in Yangzhou.Business and social gatherings were not separable,which motivated many salt merchants to construct gardens for sake of all those gatherings.Up to the Ming and Qing Dynasties,the number of gardens in Yangzhou reached the peak.When the salt market turned sluggish towards the end of the Qing Dynasty,Yangzhou gardens no longer kept the prosperity.
