Suzhou Travel Guide

Four Days and Three Nights in Suzhou - Non-Special Forces Itinerary|||I realized my wish at the end of 2024 and went to Suzhou❗ I read a lot of guides before departure and finally chose a route that suited us. I recorded it here and hope to give you some reference. 🏠Accommodation 📍UrCove by Hyatt Suzhou Shantang Street, the hotel is very clean, very close to Qilishantang, and convenient transportation 🚶🏻‍♀️Itinerary DAY1️⃣: Qilishantang I set off from Shanghai on the 29th and arrived at Suzhou Station in the afternoon. I stored my luggage at the hotel first. I wanted to go to Jinji Lake to watch the sunset in the afternoon, but I was too hungry, so I went to eat crab roe noodles first. I took a walk around Shantang Street and took some satisfactory photos before going back to the hotel to rest. DAY2️⃣: Lingering Garden ➡ Xiyuan Temple ➡ Hanshan Temple ➡ Night Tour of Shantang Street When I went there, many leaves had fallen in the Lingering Garden, but it was still very beautiful. It took about two hours to walk and take photos. When I went there, there was a flower arrangement exhibition, which was very beautiful. After walking for a while, I arrived at Xiyuan Temple, ate vegetarian noodles, and didn't have to queue✌🏻. I bought vegetarian buns, and there were quite a few people queuing for vegetarian buns. It was 10 yuan per pack, and you could buy 3 vegetables and 2 red bean pastes. The taste was good, but two people might not be able to finish it. I got a calendar, couplets, and the character "Fu", and I felt very fulfilled. After coming out, I walked for a long time because I mistook the location of the bus stop. When I arrived at Hanshan Temple, my feet were already very painful, so I didn't go in much. I took a taxi back to rest for a while, ate Haidilao near the hotel, and then went on a night tour of Qilishantang. Because I found the wrong location the day before, there are really many bridges in Suzhou. The others are also very beautiful, but I saw many viewing points on 📍Xinmin Bridge. DAY3️⃣: Suzhou Museum ➡ Humble Administrator's Garden ➡ Eslite Bookstore ➡ Big Photo Frame Check-in and Take Photos ➡ Gate of the Orient I made a reservation for the museum a week in advance, and I didn't find an explanation. You can listen to some for free in the official account. The whole museum is very beautiful, and the small light and shadow through the corridor are very artistic. There are many black and white buildings in Suzhou, which have a feeling of landscape painting and also give people a quiet and elegant feeling. You must see the treasure of the museum in person. After coming out, it is the Humble Administrator's Garden. I couldn't walk anymore, so I didn't go in to appreciate it. I took a taxi to Eslite Bookstore. There are all kinds of small things inside that really hit the hearts of girls. There is also a check-in place for Zhang Linghe on the first floor, and the stairs are also very good for taking photos. For someone like me who likes taking photos, I love it so much. I walked to the big photo frame check-in place, and there were not many people. The food inside was quite expensive, and the mineral water was 5 yuan a bottle. I couldn't see the sunset because I went too early and left when I was hungry. The next stop was the Gate of the Orient, another classic check-in place, like Chongqing Raffles City. After taking photos, I finally got on the subway back, bought delicious food and small cakes, and watched the New Year's Eve concert of Esther Yu! DAY4️⃣: Gusu Wall 📍No. 36 Fengqiao Road ➡ Return Every time I go out to play, I must take photos📸. I only have half a day in the morning, and this location is very close to the hotel, so I left the time here. In fact, it's just a wall, but it's still quite photogenic. 👉Finally: Shen Wansan's pig's trotters are delicious, and I packed a portion when I left.
