Chill Hike + Ancient Vibes = Solid Day Out

#springitinerary So Tiger Hill in Suzhou? Kinda epic in a low-key way. It’s got this perfect mix of nature, history, and random cool stuff to stumble across. You start off just expecting a little hike, and suddenly you’re looking at a 1,000-year-old leaning pagoda that’s basically China’s version of Pisa. Wild. The walk up is super doable, lots of shady spots, gardens, little bridges, and ancient stone paths. Along the way, you’ll find bonsai displays, old gates, and even a sword-testing stone (yes, really). It feels peaceful but never boring. There are plenty of photo ops and spots to just chill and soak it all in. Plus, the views from the top are 10/10. It’s not super crowded either, which makes the whole thing feel like a mini escape. Honestly? Great way to spend a few hours. History, nature, and no rush. Loved it.
