Suzhou has jurisdiction over gusu district, Xiangcheng, Wuzhong, huqiu district and Wujiang, Zhangjiagang, Changshu, Taicang and Kunshan, with an area of 8,488.42 square kilometers.

What's worth visiting in Suzhou 0 1, Suzhou Railway Station.

There is no civil airport in Suzhou at present, so traveling to Suzhou is usually by train to Suzhou Station, or by plane to Shanghai/Wuxi and then by train to Suzhou Station. So as long as you don't drive, you will definitely stop at the railway station when you come to Suzhou.

Suzhou Railway Station was designed by Cui Kai, a master architect. Personally, I think the railway station design in China has the most local characteristics and has been selected as one of the top ten buildings in Suzhou. The main impression of the design of Suzhou Railway Station is that it is a diamond, square and round world of painted tiles composed of various geometric lines. South of the railway station is a moat, opposite the river is an ancient city, and the North Temple Tower, Pingmen and Taohuawu are close at hand. The design of Suzhou Railway Station is remarkable in ensuring that a large number of modern transportation facilities can naturally inherit and continue the texture of the ancient city.

Tips: It's Suzhou Railway Station, not Suzhou Park Station.
