一方药园：药草园

药草园是一个可享受各种感官体验的地方，神秘的气味，变化的颜色和季节的变化，都能带来不同的体验，同时也能作为药理学研究的试验台

The Physic Garden is a place to celebrate sensuous phenomena of all kinds. It is a place where mystic scents, changing colors, and seasonal variety can be enjoyed and studied. It is also a test bed for pharmacological research.

位于诺华校园的药草园是在古代修道院上建成的。在古代，僧侣们在那里研究关于植物的药物属性，这些知识为今天的研究工作提供了基础。这些地方常常是隐蔽的，是户外的实验室，与公共生活隔绝，但是蕴藏着极其重要的秘密

This Physic Garden at Novartis Campus is based on the monastery garden where, in ancient times, monks developed their knowledge about the pharmaceutical properties in plants, a knowledge that provided the foundation for today′s research efforts. These were often hidden places, laboratories in the outdoors, secluded from public life, containing secrets of utmost importance.

因此，诺华的药草园被隐藏起来，在空间组织上像一个剧场，或迷宫，花园是半封闭的，游客可以在高大的紫杉(红豆杉)和山毛榉(山毛榉)树篱之间曲折移动，花园会逐渐显露出来。“寻找真相的人，必定会找到真相”，这句话对今天的研究者，或是对中世纪修行的僧侣来说，一样重要

Consequently, the Physic Garden at Novartis is hidden, spatially organized as a theatre, or as a labyrinth, or as an onion with many layers. The garden is semi-enclosed, and the visitor enters through a zig-zag movement between backdrops of tall hedges of yew (Taxus) and beech (Fagus). The garden reveals itself step by step. The one who searches will find; a statement which is as relevant to the researcher of today as it was to the medieval monk.

在药草园中心，是一个下沉式的种植床，里面有31种药用植物，以条纹的形式排列。轻微日晒增加了植物的珍贵度，这些脆弱的标本被放置在低矮的花岗岩墙的框架内，不可触摸。从稍高的地方看过去，我们可以把花坛看成是一幅色彩丰富、纹理丰富的画，或者一块条纹地毯。没有栏杆的轻型结构桥梁横跨着，使参观者能够更仔细地观察植物，每一株植物的边缘都挂着一块青铜铭牌

Having arrived at the center, a sunken planting bed opens up, containing 31 species of pharmaceutical plants organized in a striped pattern. The slightly sunkenness of the basin adds to the preciousness of the plants, and placed inside the frame of a low granite wall, these fragile specimens become untouchable. They are viewed from slightly above, and we can read the flower bed as a colorful and textured painting or a striped carpet. Bridges of light construction, without railings, span the sunken bed, permitting the daring visitor a closer examination of the plants, each of which is labeled with an engraved bronze plaque mounted at the edge of the bed. 

在凹陷的床的两侧有四个“原木架”，这是一堆成堆的原木，它们的形状与树篱的屏风相得益彰，也让人联想到“书架”，所选木材的类型代表了已从中提取物质并用于民族药理学的树种，总共有70种植物在物理园展出

Along the sides of the sunken bed are four “log racks”, a collection of logs stacked in piles whose forms complement the screens of hedges, and are also reminiscent of a library. The types of wood selected represent tree species from which substances have been extracted and used in ethnopharmacology . All in all, 70 plant species are on display in the Physic Garden.
