What travel scams are there in Suzhou?

Suzhou and Hangzhou have always been a must-see for our travel. There are beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River and romantic legends. However, with the continuous development of tourism, there are some unacceptable drawbacks here, that is, some tourist routines to obtain more benefits.

I don't know if you have encountered any travel routines, scams and the like. Today, Bian Xiao will tell you some travel scams that you will often encounter when traveling in Suzhou!

First, low-priced tickets

When you get off at Humble Administrator's Garden, Lion Forest and Suzhou Museum Station (this is a bus stop), there will definitely be many aunts and grandmothers coming to you with signs.

I told you there were cheap tickets. The normal off-season of Lion Forest is 30, the peak season is 40, the off-season of Humble Administrator's Garden is 70 and the peak season is 90. The museum is free, but you have to wait in line.

But these aunts will tell you that Lion Grove 20 Humble Administrator's Garden 50 can be cheaper with a student ID card.

After reading your heart, I will recommend other scenic spots to you, saying that it is cheaper to connect them.

The most commonly recommended is Lion Forest-take a cruise-Panmen-Tangyin Garden-Shantang Street and get off.

The normal fare is 40+ 120+40+30+0=230 (indeed).

Ticket sellers usually sell at a 30% discount.

Then I will give you a contract to tell you when to leave the lion forest and where to take the bus.

Then, after a car full of people, a temporary group was formed.

You might say, that's quite cheap, really cheap, there is no pit, but it's up to them to decide where to take you when you get on someone else's car.

Last time we joined the group at 1 in the afternoon, and it ended at 5 o'clock. Besides these scenic spots, we also went to two shopping spots.

Moreover, the time of the two shopping spots is as long as 1 hour at each point, and there is no departure before the time. Fortunately, Suzhou local tour groups have no compulsory consumption, so you can rest assured.

Second, the shopping point routine

There are four common shopping spots in Suzhou tourism: silk, pearls, jade and tea.

It's all true, and the price is not much different. Just ... In order to stimulate consumption, merchants usually use the following two tricks to make you feel that you have bought a good thing at a very low price.

The first type: 10% discount for grandpa's birthday (most commonly used).

Take tea as an example, everyone will be invited to a room to have tea and explain the knowledge of tea. Suddenly, a manager will push the door and come in.

The previous commentator would say: This is our manager, who is not often in the shop at ordinary times, and suddenly came to inspect our work today.

Then the manager began to befriend everyone happily and said, today is my grandfather's birthday. I'm glad to chat with you. I give people in this room a privilege.

Attention, it's just our room. We'll close the door and say, it's so mysterious.

What is privilege? Privileges are cheap. Discount makes you feel good.

Jade, 10% off, the original price 1000, now 100, in fact, it is only tens of dollars.

Tea, daughter-in-law tea I sell to your mother-in-law tea, which is the general Biluochun.

Large-diameter pearls and small-diameter pearls are also sold, but they are all inferior.

My brother was taken in by this and bought me a jade pendant, saying that he was lucky.

I asked him if it was his boss's grandfather's birthday, and his face turned red.

The next day, I came to the door to return the goods, and then people really gave it back to him without saying anything!

I think I'm guilty, too. Anyway, it's not bad for this client.

The second type: the activity offers great benefits.

This silk is most commonly used. The general silk shopping spot is not a simple shopping spot, but a venue similar to the Silk Museum.

From the introduction of the birth of silkworm babies to the weaving of silk, especially exaggerating the benefits of silk quilts and silk products.

Maybe I'll take you to make a small craft or something.

It's just that the only way out is definitely the silk mall.

The discount on silk inside will make people feel, alas, such a good thing doesn't seem expensive either.

The salesman will say that we have activities these days, and we will restore the original price after these days.

But it should be noted here that

On-site inspection weighing! Because silk quilts are sold by weight, the quality is different.

There is a big gap between single cocoon and double cocoon silk quilts, so it is necessary to prevent merchants from shoddy.

Third, things that may be fooled into buying.

The first is the colorful fruits sold near the lion forest in Humble Administrator's Garden.

These fruits look good, but they can't be eaten unless they are delicious. Many of them are dyed! Don't buy it!

The second kind is Suzhou local tobacco.

Before, a male friend came to buy a pack, which was hard to smoke, choking and bitter. It's still expensive, so don't buy it.

(3 3) 10/Don't buy scarves in 0 yuan.

(4) Don't buy Suzhou embroidery cloth around 25 yuan. They are all woven by machines. Can you frame it or not?

(5) Don't buy any old yogurt in Suzhou. Beijing Old Yogurt Xi An Old Yogurt Chengdu Old Yogurt Are you kidding?

(6) Don't buy Suzhou specialties, such as mung bean cake, this cake, that cake and paper boxes. It's terrible, and it's all powder and this thing.

In Suzhou, it is called Suzhou specialty, and in Nanjing, it is called Nanjing specialty. It's all the same in a different shell.

Fourth, things that can be bought

1, when you take the cruise, someone will sell playing cards for 5 yuan, and each side is a landscape map of Suzhou Garden.

If you can't buy at a loss, you can't be fooled. Go back and have a look It's still unforgettable. It usually costs 2 yuan to buy a deck of poker. This is packed in a plastic box, which is quite good.

2. 10 yuan, three Chinese-style small bags to bring souvenirs to relatives and friends? This kind of small bag is most suitable. It looks beautiful and practical, but the price is actually very low.

3. Want to buy local products? Huang Tianyuan Guanqian Street, a century-old shop, is trustworthy. But to be honest, Suzhou's specialties can't be taken away, such as Su-style noodle soup and Wuxi steamed buns.

In summer, you can buy loquat (expired) from April to May, bayberry (expired) from May to June, and Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs (expired) in autumn.

4. Grandma's flowers on the roadside are delicious, and fragrant white orchids and jasmine flowers can be hung on your chest and worn on your hands.

However, the shelf life is short. If you want to take it home, you need to wrap it in a wet cloth and keep it moist.

All right, is everyone clear? When traveling, you must keep your eyes open, think more and see more, so that you can travel better. Finally, I hope this will not happen to you. I hope you have a wonderful trip!
