Huaihai Street | A Must-Visit Japanese Street in Suzhou

Apart from Suzhou's gardens, the most unforgettable place for me is this Japanese-style street hidden in Suzhou. No matter when or where you take photos, it always feels like you're in Japan. ✅ Travel Guide: 🔆 Address: Huaihai Street, Qiuhu District, Suzhou 🔆 Metro: Line 3, Shizishan Road, Exit 2 🔆 Parking: Hongtang Underground Parking, Golden Eagle Mall This area is a renovated old town, mainly featuring Japanese cuisine and snack shops. You can easily rent a set of kimono (60 yuan/hour, including clothes, obi, geta, hair accessories, and handbag) and pretend to be in Japan. Be sure to take photos in the evening or at night. ✅ Food Recommendations: The whole street is filled with sushi, sashimi, barbecue, and Japanese cuisine. You don't need to ask which one is authentic; if it's not good, it probably wouldn't survive. 1️⃣ Chuan Gu Japanese Western Restaurant (Huaihai Street Branch) Recommended dishes: Curry Fried Shrimp and Beef Patty, Colorful Salad, Baked Rice with Curry Fried Shrimp, Curry Fried Pork Cutlet 2️⃣ Unagi Road (Huaihai Road Branch) Recommended dishes: Nagoya-style Unagi Rice, Beef Tongue, Ginger Squid, Grilled Mackerel, Sukiyaki, Wasabi Snail 3️⃣ Sansui Japanese Cuisine (Huaihai Road Branch) Recommended dishes: Salt-grilled Salmon, Grilled Eel, Salt-grilled Cod, Sashimi Platter
