Stroll along Pingjiang Road, where the sound of Suzhou Pingtan echoes on the stone-paved streets. The old buildings on both sides are filled with authentic Suzhou-style New Year flavors. Find a small shop and try a sweet and glutinous plum blossom cake, which will leave a warm aftertaste. At night, the lights on Shantang Street illuminate the river, and you can take a boat ride to experience the gentle charm of "people living by the river." Suzhou during the Lunar New Year is both tranquil and festive. Come here to enjoy a poetic and warm Lunar New Year and rediscover the flavors of the New Year in the misty rain of Jiangnan.

In the cold winter, I set foot in Suzhou to meet the romantic Jiangnan. The city is like a slowly unfolding ink painting, exuding a unique gentleness and poetry in the cold. In the Humble Administrator's Garden, the withered lotus leaves outline unique lines on the cold water, contrasting with the ancient pavilions and towers, reminding people of the summer scenery and the passage of time. The red maple trees in the distance have not completely withered, adding a touch of color to the winter. Walking through the garden, it seems as if you can hear the footsteps of history. The stone road on Pingjiang Road is washed clean by the winter rain. The aroma of tea and food from the small shops on the street warms the passersby. Walking along the river, occasionally a boat passes by, breaking the winter silence. At night, the lights on Shantang Street are reflected in the river, creating a dreamlike scene. At this time, find a teahouse, order a cup of Biluochun tea, listen to a song of Suzhou Pingtan, and feel the gentle and lingering charm of Suzhou in the soft melody. Winter in Suzhou does not have the blooming flowers of spring, but in this simplicity, it shows the elegant charm of Jiangnan, making people intoxicated and reluctant to leave.

Stepping into Suzhou is like stepping into an ink painting. The ancient streets and alleys, the bluestone roads, and the black tiles on white walls all tell stories of the past. Stroll along Pingjiang Road, where boats sway in the river and the boatman's soft Wu dialect ripples with the water. Every step in the Humble Administrator's Garden reveals a new scene, with pavilions, rockeries, and ponds showcasing the exquisite elegance of Jiangnan gardens. The Tiger Hill Pagoda stands tall, witnessing the changes of history. At night, the lights of Shantang Street illuminate the river, creating a dreamlike scene. Suzhou, a city full of charm, is worth savoring in every corner. Once you arrive, you won't want to leave. You'll want to immerse yourself in its gentleness and enjoy the beautiful time unique to Jiangnan.

April travel brings me to Suzhou, where I checked into a hotel and asked the front desk manager for recommendations on nearby attractions. The manager patiently recommended the Humble Administrator's Garden and the Lion Grove Garden, as well as Pingjiang Road. Due to limited time, I only visited the Lion Grove Garden today. Although it's less popular, the Lion Grove Garden in April is truly beautiful, with red maple leaves and purple wisteria coexisting as if God had spilled his palette. According to the locals in Suzhou, the wisteria blooms for about a week, and I've also booked visits to the museum and the Humble Administrator's Garden, which I'm looking forward to. Besides the beautiful scenery, the hotel staff are also quite nice, providing warm and attentive service, and the rooms are clean and hygienic.

Always cherishing the childhood friendship, pointing to the magnolia as a matchmaker. Today, I return alone to the place of pleasure, where the magnolia blooms as if in the old days. Every step is a scene, a painting scroll, with each move, the scenery changes. The white magnolias of Suzhou's Humble Administrator's Garden and the Couple's Retreat Garden are in bloom. The white magnolia attracts people with its noble temperament and delicate fragrance, its petals as fine as jade, giving a sense of tranquil beauty. This March, during my trip to Suzhou, I happened to encounter the quietly blooming white magnolias. It was quite close to the hotel I was staying at, I saw it online and immediately went to appreciate it. Seeing the beautiful temperament of the white magnolia and the original match with Suzhou's characteristics, I realized that Suzhou's white magnolia style is unique and very beautiful. I suggest that those who are destined, also have the opportunity to appreciate it.
