In foreign countries, outdoor fireplaces are very popular because Europeans and Americans like to engage in family activities outdoors, such as dining, barbecuing, etc. They like to move their living room or dining room outdoors. So, an outdoor fireplace became a gathering place for family gatherings.
In our country, due to the actual weather and various factors, we cannot move our living room outdoors like in foreign countries. However, in a corner of our own yard, we can build a small fireplace, surround it with a pavilion or a small platform, and set up outdoor tables and chairs to enjoy the fun of grilling outdoors, just like when we were children, squatting around the fireplace in a corner of the yard and chatting.

In order to prevent the garden from appearing dull, it is necessary to give the garden a visual focus, which is the purpose of the existence of a false fireplace. Arched wooden grilles have been added to the simple fireplace countertop, making the garden space more approachable. Iron wire lotus vines quietly climb up the grille, close to the beautiful brass clock decoration hanging in the middle.
