I thought Suzhou was beautiful enough, until I came here

Little bridges over flowing water, households along the river, the misty rain of the south of the Yangtze River is like a painting. You must take a trip to Zhouzhuang to see how well the ancient architecture of the is preserved. The commercialization is not severe, instead, there's more of a lively atmosphere, suitable for a leisurely stroll. Admission is 100 yuan per person, free before 7 am and after 9 pm, if you have plenty of time you can consider visiting from evening to the next day at a leisurely pace, and even save on the ticket fee. Hand-rowed boat is recommended! 220 yuan for a boat that seats 6 people, you can find others to join, listening to the boatman sing Jiangnan tunes, it really has the flavor of the water towns of the south of the Yangtze River. Tried the Wan San trotter, it's a sweet-flavored braised pork knuckle, restaurants in the scenic area don't seem expensive, steamed white silk fish is very fresh and sweet. ✅ Zhouzhuang 📍43 Quanfu Road, Kunshan City, Suzhou, Jiangsu Province
