Strolling through the old streets and alleys of Suzhou, one can feel the tranquility and harmony, as if time has slowed down here.
And ancient streets such as Pingjiang Road and Shantang Street in Suzhou are great places to taste authentic Suzhou snacks and purchase specialty handicrafts. Suzhou, a captivating classical city, awaits your exploration and discovery.
Zhouzhuang, known as the "number one water town in China", has a history dating back to the Northern Song Dynasty. Strolling along the bluestone road, there are ancient houses with white walls and black tiles on both sides. Occasionally, small bridges and flowing water can be seen, creating a peaceful and tranquil scene. Riding a small boat, shuttling through the narrow waterway, listening to the boatman tell the ancient legend of Zhouzhuang, as if immersed in a flowing ink painting. In addition, the unique cuisine of Zhouzhuang, such as Wan San Ti and Po Cha, is also an experience that cannot be missed.
