How to get from Suzhou to Suzhou Tongli Ancient Town What's interesting about Suzhou Tongli Ancient Town? What must-see attractions are there in Tongli Ancient Town, Suzhou?

There are many different ideas about the ancient town. My love for the ancient town stems from the fact that I fell in love with the ancient town unconsciously after watching the TV series "Orange is Red". I will choose an ancient town for a walk whenever I have the chance, as if walking on the bluestone path, my heart will calm down, and I can relieve a lot of pressure without impetuousness, so I like the ancient town more and more. The place I went this time is Tongli Ancient Town.

When I came to Tongli, it happened to be the rainy season. After the rain, the streets were unusually clean. The road ahead, the street next to it, and the house next to it become clear, without the unique rivers and small houses in the south of the Yangtze River. I even once suspected that I was in the wrong place.

As the saying goes, one side of the soil and water supports the other side, and Tongli is not only beautiful, but also outstanding and talented. From the Song Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, there were hundreds of top scholars and many scholars. From Ye Yin, a poet in the Song Dynasty, to an artist in the Ming Dynasty, from Chen Wangdao, a supervisor in the Ming Dynasty, to Jin, a famous modern economist. All show their great influence in history.

The local people showed me the way, and after a long walk, they finally saw the river and the house by the water. Different from other ancient water towns, the river in Tongli is very wide and the houses on both sides are relatively regular. The river is blue and green, giving people a fresh feeling.

I bought a ticket online in advance and went to the tourist service center at the gate of the scenic spot, where there is a special online ticket collection window. Other windows, whether group tickets or individual tickets, have long queues, and only the online ticket window is empty, which avoids the pain of queuing.

Because it is an online ticket, the scenic spot also comes with postcards and maps from Tongli, as well as vouchers from the teahouse, which is not only cheaper than buying tickets in cash, but also giving gifts, which is really cost-effective!

There are many rickshaws outside the scenic spot, so you can choose to take them when you return. The rickshaw here is different from other scenic spots. They don't sell or attract customers. They have a good attitude, and the cars are all the same in style and color. I feel that they should be managed by regular companies.

Tickets for Tongli Scenic Spot are joint tickets, including small tickets for many scenic spots such as Tuisi Garden and Gengletang. The joint ticket supports entering and leaving the scenic spot several times in two days, but if you need to enter and leave the scenic spot many times, you need to stamp the entrance of the scenic spot, so everyone should pay special attention. It is suggested that tourists who have not thought of going in and out many times should stamp their seals on the eve of entering the scenic spot to avoid trouble when they want to enter the park again in the future.

Sanqiao, Tuisi Garden and Songshiwu Garden are the main attractions of Tongli Ancient Town.

Small rivers crisscross here, and all kinds of small bridges and buildings look very old, unlike some other ancient towns with obvious signs of reconstruction. ?

Because there are many rivers here, my companions and I will follow, without a plan or direction. As long as we are happy, we can go anywhere we want.

In front of a stage, surrounded by many people, they walked over and found the names of movies and TV plays engraved on the floor tiles under their feet.

The inscription on the stone pillar is "China Tongli Film and Television Photography Base". It is said that many movies and TV series were shot in Tongli. All these names on the ground were filmed here. Take a closer look, there is nothing I have ever seen!

The alleys and hutongs in Tongli are very clean. High white walls, new green leaves, clean and beautiful. It is this dozing employee who is not suitable.

Seeing that the staff were sleepy, I thought I was early and there was no one inside. I rushed to check in, trying to take a good shot when no one was around. But when I entered, I was dumbfounded. It was full of people!

The retreat is really hot. It is not a weekend or a holiday. It will be full when it opens early this morning! The front hall is not big, and there are too many people to take a close-up of the yard.

The tuisi Garden was founded in the 11th to 13th year of Guangxu reign in Qing Dynasty (A.D. 1885- 1887). Director Lan Sheng, alias Wan Xiang, real name Nan Yun. During Guangxu period, Ren Lansheng left his post and returned to his hometown. He spent 100, 000 taels of silver to build a house garden, which was named Tuisi Garden. It was named Zuo Zhuan, which means "I am loyal to my thoughts, and I have made up for my mistakes".

Look at this guy! The private garden really feels a little small. I'm afraid the owner of the garden wouldn't have thought that his quiet and comfortable garden would become so lively!

In Tongli, there is a clear mist everywhere. The rich ancient town customs make people's hearts calm down at once. But Tongli is not only gray, but also faint green on the lake and under the bridge, as well as the gurgling water and the low singing of birds who don't know where to hide.

Second, the use of horizontal buildings, unique style. The garden is not built vertically as in the past, but horizontally. It consists of four groups of buildings with different styles, which are divided into halls, inner halls, atriums and gardens from west to east. Third, pavilions and pavilions are complete, gathering the essence of classical gardens.

There is still a lot of room in the retreat thatched cottage. Many tourists thought that they saw the thatched cottage at the last stop at the main hall station, but in fact they could go deeper by bypassing the tables and chairs.

Go on, there is a deep staircase. The stairs are narrow and steep, but when you get to the second floor, it suddenly becomes clear.

There are many windows on the second floor, overlooking the retreat garden from different directions and angles.

This boat-shaped building is called "Noisy Gege", which is a boat-shaped building, commonly known as dry boat. In the ancient Jiangnan water town of China, boats were the main means of transportation. Stone boats and dry boats in gardens are naturally symbols of affection for water and boats, which is the cultural characteristic of Hanshui Township in the south of the Yangtze River.

You can go to the Red Pavilion, where there are inscriptions and calligraphy and painting preservation.

The garden is small and beautiful, with lush vegetation. Most trees are rare species. This big tree is Pu Shu. I have always heard the name of Park Shu-ming, and this time I met this immortal.

There is a small pavilion above the rockery. I thought it was just an ornamental pavilion, and I couldn't climb it, but I happened to see two foreigners smoking on it, and I became interested. I looked around the rockery and didn't see the stairs. I looked around twice before I saw the hole hidden in the rockery. The picture shows that the hole is quite big, but it is actually a small hole. When I went in, I got stuck once and managed to squeeze in.

Although the retreat garden is small, it has pavilions, terraces, buildings, pavilions, corridors, squares, bridges, pavilions, halls, rooms and pavilions. With superb freehand brushwork of landscape art, it contains rich traditional Chinese cultural connotation and shows a model of oriental civilization gardening art. In addition, the ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River, such as Tongli Ancient Town and Wuzhen, were bundled together and listed in the World Cultural Heritage Protection List, and this retreat garden was listed in the World Cultural Heritage on 200 1 together with nine Suzhou gardens, such as Humble Administrator's Garden, Liuyuan Garden, Lion Forest and Canglang Pavilion.

Walking on the street in Tongli, the map is basically useless, because the signs of scenic spots are not obvious, and those famous places alone make people look for collapse! Fortunately, the scenery of the scenic spot is good, and you can enjoy it after two more trips.

I like alleys like Tongli very much, and it is more appropriate not to say big alleys. Because the alleys in Tongli are much bigger than those in other water towns. Although the volume has become larger, there is no shortage of details. The quaint walls, lush green plants, exquisite windows and neat stone roads are filled with the temperament and beautiful charm of the water town everywhere.

The streets in Tongli are quiet old shops without noisy business atmosphere. In Tongli, you can walk slowly, turn slowly and enjoy the taste of Tongli.

Speaking of the taste of Tongli, delicacy is essential. Purple and white are symbols of victory, soft and charming. Legend has it that in the Southern Song Dynasty, the people specially made it for Han Jiajun to go out to inspire soldiers. There is the word "victory" on the cake, which was later called "victory cake".

All kinds of Suzhou-style cakes in Tongli are also delicious, so don't miss them.

In the center of Tongli, there are many umbrella pavilions along the river. In the afternoon, sit by the water-green river, soak a pot of scented tea, and slowly taste the green Tongli style.

Take a walk in Tongli Mingtang in the afternoon and feel the home environment of Tongli celebrities and old officials.

The second floor was the boudoir and wedding room of the young lady at that time. From the furnishings of the room, we can feel the folk customs at that time.

I walked around the second floor, feeling that the plow hall was not big, just a small building and several houses. When I went downstairs, I found a small door at the end of the first floor, which was very narrow and small. After coming out, it turned out to be a big garden!

There is a big garden hidden behind the living room. There are stages, rockeries, bridges and running water. This is really low-key luxury, with connotation!

Pearl Tower Scenic Area and Jade Land are together. Looking for the Pearl Tower for a long time, I found the door and came in to find that it was actually the Yushitai, which was blocked at that time. Only after asking about it did I know that the Pearl Tower is a love story, and the story happened here.

Pearl Tower Scenic Area is located on the west side of Tongli Jingyuan in the ancient town, which is divided into three parts: east, west and north. There is Chen Yushi House in the east, a back garden in the west, and an ancient ancestral temple, Chen Jiapao Tower and an ancient stage in the north.

There are only three door-to-door hair clips, which have local architectural characteristics.

At the end of the scenic spot, there is a quiet river. This river is green, and its banks are green.

Jiangnan water _ _ _ _ water, Tongli alone has 49 _ _ _ banks, which coincides with July 7th. If this _ even _ _ is happy _, it may be _ waiting from the sky, _ managing _ autumn night, but it is still reminiscent of Du Mu's _ softness _ escape months ago.

The sun has set in the west, and the colors in Tongli are getting brighter and brighter with the darkness. Finally, follow the camera and feel the charm of the night in Tongli together.

The sun has set in the west, and the colors in Tongli are getting brighter and brighter with the darkness. In the early morning or evening when there are few tourists, walking on the stone road and walking on the streets of Tongli also has some feelings.
