The announcement of the May opening has triggered much criticism online. A Sina Weibo user with the screen name "you have the look I love best" wrote, "The garden is associated with humiliation. Why bother spending so much in replicating it?"

"Boteyang" posted, "I would prefer they spend [the money] to design a better one."

Others voiced support, however. "Wenwenwenwen" said on Sina Weibo, "I support it. I have been longing to see the original since I was a child."
