You can find a guide or rent an audio guide, which will give you a better experience than wandering on your own and help you better understand some knowledge of Suzhou gardens. 2️⃣Near the Humble Administrator's Garden are the Suzhou Museum main hall and Pingjiang Road, which can be arranged to visit on the same day. The Suzhou Museum main hall must be booked 3-5 days in advance; it was designed by Mr. I. M. Pei and is particularly artistic. 3️⃣The tourist service center🉑️offers free luggage storage, and many small shops nearby also offer luggage storage, but it's not necessarily free. When visiting the Humble Administrator's Garden, don't just rush through; instead, take a leisurely stroll, imagine it as your own garden, walk through pavilions and towers, see the sunlight through the colored glaze, and the mottled tree shadows on the white walls, it's truly beautiful!
