Favorite thing: One can hardly get the taste of Suzhou if he is in haste. You should set aside some time to sit in the tea house of a small (not so croweded) garden such as Ou Yuan Garden,Yi Pu Garden; to explore the tiny streets of the old city such as (Kong Fu Si xiang -- close to No.10 middle school -- it would be fun to visit the school as well since the school has the famous "TaiHu" stone as I mentioned before). Until you do these, you wouldn't get the true feeling of Suzhou.

Favorite thing: From late June to early July, it's time to watch the blossom of water lily. Combined with Chinese garden art, it is really a soul washing experience. In Chinese, waterlily is famous for its "not polluted even from dirty land, not bewitching even from clean spring". Waterlily is one of many kinds of plants ancient Chinese used to liken the personality an ideal person should have.

Favorite thing: There's a famouse temple called Han Shan Temple in Suzhou, it should thanx to a poem which has a sentence: The guest in a boat heard the bell ring from the Hangshan Temple which is located outside of Suzhou City in the mid night.
Fondest memory: This is a rebuilt one.=)

Favorite thing: Unlike foreigners always bring their pet dog when out for a leisure walk, Chinese always bring their birds aside. This kind of bird, after special training, can imitate people talking.
