Tips: The security in Suzhou City is very good, and all accommodation must be registered. In this regard, Sanya cannot compare. However, the tricycle drivers in Suzhou are very annoying. The best way is to ignore them. They are all workers from out of town, so they are very annoying. When I see you are traveling, I tell you, where are you going, one yuan, beauty streets, etc. Don’t pay attention to them, don’t ask them for directions, and don’t let them take you to a hotel. Be careful to get ripped off! There are also some taxi drivers in Suzhou. Sometimes if they see that you are a foreigner and ask where you want to go, they will say that this place is not good and take you to live somewhere else. Because they will get commissions, and you will also be ripped off. In short, don’t trust these people too much when you go out. It is best to ask maps and ordinary citizens for directions. This is best. The address to Jiahe Hotel is: the south door of the Lion Grove Parking Lot on Yuanlin Road. There is an Internet cafe opposite. The place surrounding Chi is Shizilin. I personally think that the Lion Forest sign is not easy to find, because when you get off the bus stop, you can't see the obvious instructions. Now I will teach you a good way: when you get off the bus, you can see a good supermarket, and there is But the Tongtianfu Hotel opposite is called Shilin Temple Lane. Come in and keep walking until you reach the intersection and you will find the Lion Grove. You can also see the Jiahe I mentioned. Turn left and go straight ahead to find the Humble Administrator's Garden. It's very close. , go straight ahead at the intersection and turn left before you reach Pingjiang Historic Street. Don't get a tricycle, because there is no need to spend this money. It is actually very close, but the sign is not clear. Suzhou city is not big to begin with. Some people have said that the ancient city of Suzhou (mainly Pingjiang District) was also called Pingjiang Mansion in the old days. From south to north and from east to west, the taxi fare will not exceed 20 yuan. I believe that the purpose of self-guided tours is to be completely self-guided and to use your trip as an opportunity to learn local knowledge. Just use some snacks and be more prepared!
About Play: Suzhou gardens are the best in the world. Suzhou gardens are comprehensive works of art of architecture, landscapes, flowers and trees, sculptures, calligraphy and painting. They integrate natural beauty and artistic beauty, forming a circuitous and step-by-step landscape. There are more than 60 gardens in the city, among which the Humble Administrator's Garden and the Lingering Garden are included in the four famous gardens in China, together with the Master Garden, Huanxiu Villa and Canglang Pavilion, Lion Grove, Art Garden, Coupling Garden, and Retreat Garden. Nine classical gardens, including Siyuan Garden, were included in the World Heritage List by UNESCO in December 1997 and November 2000. The ancient towns of Tongli, Zhouzhuang and Jiaozhi are in the process of applying for inclusion in the World Cultural Heritage List. /p>
Suzhou has both beautiful gardens and scenic landscapes. Famous temples and temples are scattered throughout the city and countryside. The cultural relics and historic sites are inscribed with each other, making it famous both at home and abroad. Tianping, Dongting, Dongshan, Dengwei, Yushan and Yushan are all natural scenic spots. The ancient town of Zhouzhuang and modern tourist facilities such as Suzhou Paradise and Taihu Paradise also attract many tourists from home and abroad?
Suzhou currently has 10 museums including opera, folklore, inscriptions, silk, Suzhou embroidery, coins, gardens, and Buddhism, and has become a new tourist hotspot.
I. I went to the following places and expressed the following opinions:
The Humble Administrator’s Garden: To the north of the Lion Grove, straight from the Garden Road to the north, I think the essence of Suzhou gardens lies here. The 70 admission fee is the most valuable. I took a look at it and remembered that there is a Suzhou Folk Museum on the way to the Humble Administrator’s Garden. It’s free of charge. You can stop by and check it out.
The Lion Grove: It’s named after the Rockery Kingdom. There are Taishi and Shao in the mountains. There are countless lions, roaring lions, lion dances, awake lions, and sleeping lions squatting, fighting, or playing. The incredible whole mountain looks like the Kunlun Mountains, with the mountains rising horizontally from the ground and the uplifted Lion Peak. Mainly, the mountains are undulating and stretching in all directions. It is worth seeing.
Huqiu: It is known as "the first scenic spot in Wuzhong": "The King of Wu"
Fu Chai buried his father in Helu here. Three days later, a white tiger came up from it, so it was named Huqiu.
"Huqiu Temple was built in the Jin Dynasty, and was renamed Wuqiu in the Tang Dynasty
Baoen Temple, Yunyan Temple in the Song Dynasty, and Hufu Temple in the Qing Dynasty.
It is recommended to go to Guanqian Street in the evening and eat Huang Tianyuan's side. A day trip to the Pingjiang Road Historic District is really not enough in downtown Suzhou. Ganjiang Road is also very nice. There is a river in the middle of the road, which may be the only one in Suzhou. There was a lot of praise. Although it has been renovated, you can still find old houses that are hundreds of years old. Some old men were fishing by the river, and old ladies were enjoying the cool weather and chatting along the way. I also saw a small boat in the river, carrying tourists; and a beautiful girl sitting on the bow, the look in her eyes was even more shocking, and she was often left behind by the pace. Okay, but it depends on the person. She doesn’t like my LG very much, saying I don’t look like a young person, haha. She prefers to visit Qian Street because she has enough time for shopping. If so, go to Lingyan Mountain and Tianping Mountain in Mudu. It takes a whole day.
Tips: Suzhou’s transportation is very good, and the map of Suzhou is very clear and practical, as long as you can distinguish the north from the south. Don't get confused about the directions. There are many bus lines and the services are very attentive.

China has four major cuisines: Jiangsu, Shandong, Guangdong and Sichuan, with different tastes. They are called "eastern sour, western spicy, southern sweet and northern salty". Jiangsu cuisine belongs to the "southern sweet" flavor.
Suzhou cuisine is characterized by rigorous selection of ingredients, fine workmanship, and different techniques according to the seasons. It is good at stewing, stewing, steaming, roasting, and stir-frying, and pays attention to soup preparation to maintain the original flavor. It tends to be sweet and has a harmonious color scheme.
Famous Su-style signature dishes include: squirrel mandarin fish, shark fin in clear soup, eel paste with oil, watermelon chicken, whole chicken with mother oil, Taihu water shield soup, jade shrimp bucket, and lotus. Collection of stews and more.
Suzhou’s snacks are also world-famous. Dried tofu in dense sauce, pine nut candy, rose melon seeds, shrimp soy sauce, jujube paste sesame cakes, lard salty cakes, etc. are all very popular and must-try.
The most famous Suzhou-style restaurants are "Deyue Tower" and "Songhe Tower".
The specialty of Deyuelou (No. 27, Eunuch Alley) is that the menu changes in due course according to the seasons. In spring, there is cherry sauce meat; in summer, there are steamed anchovies, maple trotters, steamed pork with lotus sauce, etc.; in autumn, there are chestnut yellow braised chicken, fat-free pork; in winter, there are bone-in eight-treasure chicken, boiled herring, assorted hot pot, etc. The two of us ate a De Yuetong Chicken (RMB 50), a Roasted Bacon Pork (RMB 15), and a bottle of Budweiser (RMB 10), which cost 75 yuan. The waiter smiled when paying the bill, maybe because we ordered less, haha! ! !
Songhe Tower (No. 141 Guanqian Street) was founded during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. It has a history of more than 200 years and is a representative of traditional Jiangsu cuisine. Squirrel mandarin fish, Biluo shrimp, braised meat and tofu, etc. are all the signature dishes of this restaurant.
I didn’t get to eat because I didn’t have a reservation. I’ll definitely try it next time I get the chance.
The most popular restaurants in Suzhou nowadays include Tianzhu, Xiangyun, Runji, Tsinghua, Nankai, etc. These "fashionable new favorites" are compared with "time-honored restaurants" such as "Deyue Tower" and "Songhe Tower". ”, the price is more reasonable, the service is first-class, and the environment is more elegant.
The main food streets in Suzhou are: Eunuch Lane, Shiquan Street, Xueshi Street, Phoenix Street, Ganjiang Road and Shilu Kinmen Shopping Mall Food Street. But there are so many that it’s hard to choose.
The best place to stay in Suzhou is in the urban area. You can’t afford to stay in a 4-star or 5-star hotel. But I personally don’t think it’s necessary. The current economic hotels are developing well, and the house prices are generally between 100-200 yuan. The space is missing restaurants and other facilities, but it gives us tourists more real benefits! But the conditions of hotels that are too cheap are often unsatisfactory. When I go to Suzhou, I choose a place near the garden scenic area. One is safety, and the other is the surrounding environment. I can feel the atmosphere of old Suzhou. The Jiahe Business Hotel on Yuanlin Road where I stayed is worth recommending, especially when I get up early in the morning and stand on Yuanlin Road. There is a special feeling. But you have to get up earlier. Preferably before 6 o'clock. Haha, if you are a lazy man, don’t mention it, haha! The key to choosing a hotel to stay is whether it has lobby and room bathroom facilities. This is my experience from many years of business travel. It's on a main road, on a main artery, the price is high, and the room is noisy.
Transportation: Shanghai Hongqiao Airport and Pudong Airport have direct buses to Suzhou, with fares of 50 yuan and 80 yuan respectively. You can also take trains and buses from Shanghai. It is best to take the train, which leaves in 20 minutes and can be reached in 40 minutes. But if you arrive at the airport at night, you will spend a lot of money. Jianyi can arrive in Suzhou in the afternoon. Because it was too late, there were no airport buses. A taxi to the train station would cost at least 300 oceans.
Travel: Suzhou has opened a special tourist bus line, which is divided into east and west lines. The east line passes through the railway station, Beisi Pagoda, East Garden, Lion Grove, Humble Administrator's Garden, Guanqian Street, etc. The west line passes through the railway station, Huqiu, Xiyuan, Hanshan Temple, Liuyuan Garden, Shantang Street, Panmen, etc. The fare is 1 yuan for regular cars and 2 yuan for air-conditioned cars. In addition, you can take a taxi, the starting price is 10 yuan (3 kilometers), or rent a bicycle to play. It is not recommended to take a tricycle, the price is extremely expensive.
Tickets: Tickets for various attractions in Suzhou are around 50 yuan, varying between peak and off-season.
Shopping: Places you can visit in the city include Renmin Road and Guanqian Street, where you can buy Daoxiang Village’s freshly baked fermented rice cakes and pine nut candies, Ye Shouhe’s date mud cakes and dried tofu, and Huang Tianyuan’s Rice cakes, Caizhizhai’s brown sugar and one-bite cakes, etc.
Note: 1. There are many people at the exit of the train station or bus station who recommend one-day tours or hotels. Don’t ignore them. As long as you hesitate at all, they will pester you for a long time! Once successful, you will contribute the kickback! Most of the hotels they recommended were dirty and messy. Otherwise, he will recommend you to go, and it would be strange if there is no kickback. Remember: what they say is bad is actually good, and what they say is good must be bad. This requires reverse thinking
2. It is best not to ride on the tricycles in Suzhou, and never go there. Listen to those out-of-town rickshaw drivers who recommend you places to visit at extremely low fares. Not to mention that those places are not fun, the coachman can also get kickbacks for your contribution. Remember: what they say is bad is actually good, and what they say is good must be bad. This requires reverse thinking. Sometimes it's really funny. I heard a tricycle driver say to a little girl that the most interesting thing in Suzhou is the Water Village Folk Garden, especially the cockfighting show. faint! ! !
3. All buses in Suzhou accept Shanghai Transportation Card and Wuxi Taihu Pearl Card, and the fares are 10% off.
4. There are fake monks in some temples in Beisi Pagoda and Dongxishan, who extort foreign tourists by telling fortunes and asking for fortunes.
5. Suzhou’s specialties are basically some silks and Suzhou-style candies and pastries. There are also some in front of the temple. For sweets and pastries, Caizhizhai, Daoxiangcun and Yeshouhe are the best, all on Guanqian Street.
It is recommended to buy silk in large stores. Do not sell silk recommended by scalpers, drivers, or tricycle drivers. If you buy it for 200 yuan, it may only be worth 20 yuan, which is amazing! ! !
6. When you are out, don’t make yourself unhappy with your companions because of trivial matters. Ask for directions and make more preparations. It doesn’t matter if you are a little annoyed. Just be happy and travel freely! You must believe in your ability to travel independently! This is because I have, and I kind of regret it. After all, it is fun to go out and have fun. There is no need to compete with friends for trivial matters.
Finally, I wish all my self-guided tour friends all over the world a happy trip! !
