Two-day tour, how to experience the Jiangnan charm of Suzhou in two days?

There are too many attractions. It is recommended to visit one garden, one mountain, one temple, one boat, one village and one pagoda

Day 1:

After getting off the train at Suzhou Railway Station, Take bus 178/518/you 1/202 at the train station (about 3-4 stops) and get off at Suzhou Museum. Visit the Humble Administrator’s Garden (50 yuan) for 2 hours. Take bus 1 at Suzhou Museum (about 11 stops). )/Tour No. 2 (about 15 stops) and get off at the first and last stations of Huqiu. Tour Huqiu (40 yuan) for 2.5 hours. At the first and last station of Huqiu, take the You 1/You 2 bus to Guanjing Xincun East/Huqiu Road Xincun and transfer to the 816 bus to Heshan Bridge (about 9 stops). After getting off, walk 200 meters northwest and enter the back gate of Hanshan Temple. Visit Hanshan Temple (25 yuan) for 1.5 hours. If you are young, you can consider a night boat tour around the Suzhou moat in the evening for 120 yuan and 70 minutes.

The next day:

Suzhou North Railway Station/Railway Station: Catch the 7.00am early morning passenger bus to Zhouzhuang for 17 yuan. Tickets for Zhouzhuang are 80 yuan and can be purchased online. After 5 hours of sightseeing, we took the passenger bus from Zhouzhuang Bus Station back to the North Square of Suzhou Railway Station at about 2 p.m. 1.5 hours.

At the train station, take Route 1 (about 2 stops) / Route 4 (about 2 stops) / Route 4 (about 2 stops) and get off at Beisi Pagoda (West). Visit Beisi Pagoda (25 yuan) for 1.5 hours. You can return to the train station at 18.30pm and take the train back home.

On the first day, we went to Luzhi District, Wuzhong District, which was once known as "the first water town in China". It is located in the southeast of Suzhou City and has a civilization history of more than 2,000 years. There are many waters, bridges and alleys here, making it a veritable land of many waters. Compared with other more famous ancient towns such as Tongli Ancient Town, Luzhi is definitely an independent existence different from others. Luzhi is also very beautiful at night. If you want to find a quiet place, then Luzhi Ancient City will be a good choice for you.

It’s also a good idea to go to the Humble Administrator’s Garden next. Located in Pingjiang District, Suzhou City, the Humble Administrator’s Garden is one of the four major ancient gardens in Suzhou. It is also the largest and most famous garden in Suzhou. The Humble Administrator's Garden, a classic of Chinese private gardens, has been included in the World Cultural Heritage List. As a representative garden in the south of the Yangtze River, the Humble Administrator's Garden is centered on water, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with exquisite halls and pavilions, luxuriant flowers and trees, full of poetry and painting, and has strong characteristics of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River. Strolling through the Humble Administrator's Garden, I believe you will be amazed by the breadth and depth of Chinese classical garden art!

The next day we went to the Suzhou Museum to have a look and feel the strong sense of history in Suzhou. This is a museum with local history and artistic characteristics. It is the essence of Suzhou architecture. It is probably one of the few museums that I have a strong desire to visit. The Suzhou Museum designed by the famous designer I.M. Pei, with its white walls and black tiles, perfectly demonstrates the perfect integration of geometric shapes and Zen. The exhibition area in the museum displays a large number of historical cultural relics, fully displaying the historical beauty of Suzhou.

Suzhou is a typical garden city in the south of the Yangtze River. However, the two-day tour was a little rushed, so we could only compress the space and time and make reasonable arrangements.

On the first day, you can visit gardens in Suzhou, such as Lion Grove, Humble Administrator’s Garden, Hanshan Temple, Tiger Hill, The Lingering Garden, Master of the Nets Garden, etc. You can simply have a bowl of Suzhou-style braised pork for breakfast. Double eel noodles. At noon, you can eat squirrel seabass and stir-fried shrimp at Deyue Tower or Songhe Tower on Guanqian Street. In the evening, you can take a walk on Shilu Pedestrian Street and eat snacks on Shantang Street.

On the second day, you can visit an ancient town. Luzhi, Jinxi and Zhouzhuang are on the same route. After returning to Suzhou in the evening, you can visit the Pingjiang Road Historical and Cultural Street.

This kind of trip is more leisurely and allows you to appreciate the charm of the ancient city of Suzhou. Of course, if you have time, the Jinji Lake in the park is also beautiful.

Since the author mainly wants to experience Jiangnan, we have basically visited the scenic spots in Nanjing city. You can go straight to Zhouzhuang, Luzhi and Tongli, three of the six towns in Jiangnan. If it were me, I might spend two days leisurely traveling in Zhouzhuang to fully immerse myself in that atmosphere.

The budget is about 30, and the price of B&B is always the same. It is not luxurious, but it is suitable for the situation.

Walk along the corridor in the "Humble Administrator's Garden" and walk into the distance step by step. This is a corridor built along the wall. Under the corridor is a small pond. , the entire corridor became more quiet because of the water. I stopped and looked at the pool. There were several stone mountains above the pool. Green plants grew on the stone mountains. The branches fell along the stone mountains. The fish in the pond were swimming around it, and the red fish also added a touch of life to the blue picture.
