Beijingers, traveling to Suzhou for five days, please recommend interesting, beautiful and worthwhile places in Suzhou and its surrounding water towns.

Traveling to Suzhou can be divided into several theme tours:

First, the garden line, the advantage is that the building is different from the north, exquisite and beautiful, strong regional characteristics, the disadvantage is that tickets are expensive. The most famous gardens in Suzhou are: Humble Administrator's Garden, Lion Forest, Canglang Pavilion and Lingering Garden. If someone takes it, the master's garden (night tour is better) and the lovers' garden hidden deep in the alley are also very good. But this kind of scenic spot, usually there will be more people, and the effect may not be very good. They are suitable for quiet stop-and-go, and there are many human stories in them. Before you go, you can read the online introduction, so that when you look at it on the spot, you will have a sense of surprise like "so this is the place". (It may take a day)

The second is the market line. The advantage is that there is no need for tickets. The disadvantage is that many shops are foreign due to commercial development. Two places, Pingjiang Road and Shantang Street. If you go in summer, a night tour is also very good. You can also go down the river by boat, which is unique. You only need to visit the gardens or museums during the day and then visit these two places at night, so you don't need a day. )

The third is the museum line. There are many museums in Suzhou, large and small, and tickets are not needed. The older ones are Kunqu Opera Museum, Pingtan Museum (with Pingtan performance), Garden Museum and Silk Museum. The newer ones are Suzhou Museum and Suzhou Celebrity Museum. Each has its own characteristics. You can also insert sightseeing gardens.

The fourth line is Taihu Lake Line. It's no exaggeration to stay in Dongxishan for a day or two. Yue Ming Bay in the Western Hills is a good place to go. Personally, I prefer the ancient village of Luxiang in Dongshan, which is worth seeing. You can also go to Sanshan Island for a day by boat. Others, such as Wufeng and Linzhai caves, can also go. Don't believe the propaganda that "Wuxi is the pearl of Taihu Lake". 70% of Taihu Lake is in Suzhou. There are mountains, water, people and history. There are abundant products all year round, and every day is a good season. There is not so much artificial beautification, so it is natural and simple.

The fifth is the Guzhen Line. Zhouzhuang, Tongli and Luzhi are all famous. But to be honest, there is not much difference between Wuzhen and Xitang.

Sixth, other scenic spots worth visiting, such as Tiger Hill, Dome Mountain and Tianping Mountain.

You can go to Jinji Lake to watch night scenes and water curtain movies, or you can take a double-decker bus around the lake at the International Expo Center.
