Travel guide from Nanjing to Suzhou, urgently requested!

I don’t know your standards for a first-time stay. For budget hotels, I recommend the Home Inn in Guanqian. If it’s better, the Suzhou Renjia Hotel on the east side of Guanqian Street is very good, whether it’s rooms, meals, or... It’s for work and travel. I have important friends who live there.

About snacks

1. Go out of Guanqian Street and walk north. Opposite to (Tsim Sha Tsui, Carnival, and Dezhuang Hotpot), there is a dumb pan fried restaurant. It is recommended to try it. The old restaurant (others are franchised) is in Su'an New Village. , it’s not easy to find. If you’re willing to take a taxi, it costs about 15 yuan from Guanqian.

2. There is a road to the south of Guanqian Street called Eunuch Lane. Suzhou’s traditional food is all there. If you want to eat Subang cuisine, go to Yuelou (I haven’t gone there recently, Babao Duck). , fire recipes and the like are specialties), Songhelou (squirrel mandarin fish, fried eel paste, stir-fried shrimps, jar meat, you can just remember these without reading the recipes). The consumption of these two restaurants is relatively high, if you want to eat both 60 if you arrive. There are also noodle restaurants such as Zhu Hongxing and Lu Changxing. Suzhou is very famous for its noodles.

3. This place is difficult to find. It is in a small alley to the north of Dumb Fried Pancake on Linton Road. Turn left to the door of Suzhou Flower and Bird Market. In the afternoon (12:00-15:00, remember !) There is Pan Yulin Sugar Porridge, the most traditional snack in Suzhou. My grandpa must eat it once a week.

4. In Xizhong City, near Changmen, there is Yaoji Soybean Milk, which contains sesame oil dumplings, sweet and salty soybean milk, and fried dough sticks, the most traditional breakfast for Suzhou people. It's a pity that his glutinous rice is not very good.

5. Go all the way east from Guanqian Street to Linton Road. Then go east and ask passers-by. You can go to Pingjiang Road, which is next to the river and has Suzhou characteristics. You can pick up Youjiatao Road. Ye Pu, opened by an old couple, tastes okay, although it is not a traditional Suzhou snack.

3. Specialties

Guanqian Street:

Huang Tianyuan (Guanqian Street Middle, Xuanmiao Guandong) pastries (yellow sponge cake, mint sponge cake, pig cakes) Oil cakes, Dingsheng cakes, square cakes), I wonder if they are available in gift boxes now, which would be more worry-free.

Ye Shouhe is diagonally across from Huang Tianyuan. You can buy some marinated tofu, sesame cakes, peanut cakes, shrimp xiang fish, and jujube paste sesame cakes. Theirs is the most authentic, and mine is the best. The old man loves to eat.

Cai Zhi Zhai (Ye Shou He Dong), buy some pine nut rice dumpling candies and walnut soft candies.

Also, listen to the salesperson’s introduction and try to buy as much as possible in smaller quantities.

IV About the itinerary

D1 Arrive in Suzhou, go to Shantang Street, Qili Shantang to Tiger Hill, and then visit Tiger Hill. The Water Village Style Garden is a lie, don’t go there. If you have time, go to Fengqiao Scenic Area, but I don’t think it’s necessary. It is recommended that you go to Lakeside Xintiandi and Ligongdi in Jinji Lake in the park at night. There is the largest laser music fountain in East China. There is one at about 7:30 in the summer.

D2 Humble Administrator’s Garden, Suzhou Museum, and at most a Lion Grove. You can go shopping on Pingjiang Road in the afternoon. There are many Suzhou specialty snacks and tea places nearby, you can try them all. Ask the elderly people walking on the road, they are all very enthusiastic. In the evening, you can stroll around Guanqian and buy some Suzhou specialties.
