Suzhou -- the Lion Forest Garden

by wwliu

Compactly yet harmoniously spaced, the Lion Forest Garden has a prominent part for series of man-made mountains with various buildings around the lake, and an artificial waterfall and cliffs at the edge of the lake on the west. Remains of the 14th century man-made mountains, covering 1,152 sq.m. and being the largest of all at Suzhou, can be still seen today. Noted for its labyrinthine mountains with winding pathways and caverns, old pines and cypress trees, awesome peaks and jogged rocks of grotesque shapes resembling dancing lions with striking and unusual poses, it possesses with pride the true delights of mountain and forest scenery in limited space with a flavor of Zen Buddhism.

Suzhou -- Yipu

by wwliu

Suzhou, a city looks like a big gardens. You can feel her unique feature wherever. When you walk on the streets, Suzhou people speaking with an southern accent would sell to you various stuff what filled elegant sense. Diaphanous, ingenious, dignified, You can use every adjective to describe SuZhou as these.

Gondola rides

by stmlnyc

A gondola ride along the canal is a good way to see the town. It costs 60 RMB per gondola in Tong Li (max. 6 person, excluding children) and 80 RMB in Zhou Zhuang (max. 8 person). If you don't want to pay for the whole gondola, just chip in and ride with fellow tourists if your group is under the max. number.Tip: Try to get a female gondola rower, there more likely to sing traditional Wu-dialect songs during the ride.

Nanjing

by FreeCloud

Nanjing, the 'southern capital', once was the Replic of China's capital after World War II. Besides Dr. Sun Zhongshan's maoseleum, a must-see, the city used to be the 'greeniest' among all Chinese cities. It has a long history as well, onced to be an ancient capital for a short while. More later.

Wu Xi/Lake Tai Hu

by FreeCloud

Lake Tai Hu used to be a very beautiful place, and I liked it better than Suzhou. However, for past several years, they built several theme parks along the lake, which I think totally ruined the peace and the charm of it.Before many people can afford to fly and/or drve their own cars, Lake Taihu used to be Shanghai people's weekend/recreation/honeymoon place. The Shanghai tourists also jumped up the local prices.

Watertowns

by FreeCloud

There are many watertowns in Jiangsu province, where preserve relatively well of their traditional Chinese architecture and life style, to certain degrees.The few known to general tourists are Tong Li, Lu Zhi, Mu Du etc, all not far from Suzhou.
