On Sunday, after returning books to the library, I saw that Daoqian Street was right next to it, so I decided to take a walk. The ginkgo season was over, and the golden leaves on the roadside had already fallen. I walked into the Suzhou Inspectorate. There were few tourists, so I walked around the garden and visited the art exhibition.

On Daoqian Street in Suzhou, there is the former site of the Jiangsu Prosecution and Prosecution Office. It was originally the Military Preparation Road Office in the Ming Dynasty (hence the name "Daoqian Street"). It was occupied by the High Court and later used by municipal authorities. Recently, in order to protect the ancient city, some municipal offices have been moved away, and the old Jiangsu Provincial Inspectorate is under renovation and restoration. Not far to the south is the Jiangsu Provincial Prison, which is now a police museum. Therefore, after admiring the ginkgo trees on Daoqian Street in early winter, you can turn to the former site of Jiangsu Province to see the ancient trees, drink a cup of coffee, and understand the history.

The Former Site of Jiangsu Provincial Surveillance Office is located at No. 170, Daoqian Street, Gusu District, Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province.

It is now a provincial cultural relic protection unit and was used by the Jiangsu High Court during the Republic of China period. It is a building of significant historical value. Having withstood the test of time and witnessed historical changes, the restored site of the Surveillance Office retains its majesty and adds a touch of serene and elegant beauty.
