The Garden of Surging Waves ( simplified Chinese: 沧浪园; traditional Chinese: 滄浪園; pinyin: Cānglàng Yuán; Jyutping: Cong1long4 Jyun4), is a Chinese garden and city park currently under construction in Astoria, Oregon. The Astoria City Council selected the garden as city's bicentennial legacy gift in recognition of Astoria's Chinese heritage. [1]

The garden's ceremonial ground breaking took place at Heritage Square in front of Astoria City Hall on April 14, 2012. [1]
