Suzhou Yangcheng Lake | A stunning photo check-in spot
🌟In late autumn and early winter, you can enjoy the unique beauty of red maple 🍁. Apart from the popular Tianping Mountain in Suzhou, there is a few hundred meters long Maple Avenue on the Yangcheng Lake Peninsula in the park. 🌈It is said that many people call it 'Little Quebec🤫'. The trees planted on both sides are Canadian red maples🍁. When we went there, some leaves had already fallen, but the long walkway and dense red maples were still very stunning under the sunlight☀️ and blue sky. 📍Address: The road outside the farm at No. 1, Tanxi Road, Suzhou Industrial Park, Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province. 🚇Subway: Line 1 of Rail Transit → Route 176 🚌Bus: Route 176, Route 127, Route 1055, Route 238 🚗Self-driving: Navigate to Putian Organic Ecological Agriculture Park 🅿️Parking: Free🆓 🎫Admission: Free🆓

Friendly Ba Cheng Street in China
Ba Cheng Street in China left a lasting impression on me. The vibrant street market was a delight to explore, with a rich display of local culture and traditional crafts. As we strolled along, we stumbled upon a charming tea shop, it’s called 巴城街茶坊. The owner warmly welcomed us and introduced us to various Chinese teas, making the tasting experience truly enjoyable. Their hospitality and the authentic tea flavors made the visit unforgettable. A must-visit for an authentic taste of China's culture.

Breathtaking Sunset at the Yangcheng Lake!

The Suzhou Village
Suzhou Village, which opened its doors for the first time in May 2014, is located on the western shore of Yangcheng Lake Peninsula, in historic Suzhou, and serves the discerning visitors to this major tourist destination.
The design of Suzhou Village is an original fusion of Italian and artisanal Chinese influences that create an elegant, distinct and wholly authentic customer experience.

A new luxury resort hotel in Suzhou, let's see how it is.
How far would you go for authentic hairy crabs?
The cool autumn breeze is the best time to eat crabs. Of course, you should go to Yangcheng Lake to enjoy them! So, I booked a flight to Suzhou.
This time, I booked the newly opened Banyan Tree Yangcheng Lake. Located in the central lake area, it is surrounded by water on three sides, with a great view. The lake and canal run through the hotel, connecting the buildings. You can also take a boat on Yangcheng Lake, which is a unique experience.
Don't miss the night ceremony in the evening. Accompanied by the fisherwoman's evening song, the candle of blessing is lit. The boat is quiet in the sound of the singing bowl and the aroma of essential oils. You can also enjoy special cocktails at the lobby bar at night.
The hotel has only 70 different types of luxury rooms, so it is very comfortable and quiet. Guests can take a boat to check in and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan gardens. The rooms are well-equipped, even with an outdoor private hot spring. You have to try it to know how relaxing it is in winter. There are many kinds of mini bars, except for wine, which is free.
Mingyue Italian Restaurant
A very good restaurant, very impressive. Chef David Han has a great control of the dishes. The presentation is exquisite and thoughtful, which is my favorite type. Steak and champagne, a pleasant dinner.

Enjoy the beautiful scenery of Yangcheng Lake, taste delicious lake delicacies and local snacks, and visit the space-themed amusement park (indoor and outdoor). There are pink and white sandpits (a favorite for kids). The pink sandpit is by the lake and has coarse sand, so shoes are required. The white sandpit is in the amusement park.

Yangcheng Lake, Suzhou | You must try the hairy crabs from Yangcheng Lake when you visit Suzhou.
It's crab season again 🍁
We decided to eat crabs 😋
We went to Lianhua Island at Yangcheng Lake to eat crabs 🦀
The island has rice fields, windmills, and rainbow paths.
The houses are all designed in the style of traditional Chinese gardens.
The streams flow gently, like a paradise on earth.
~~~
We chose a crab restaurant by the lake to enjoy a crab feast.
The owner found us a perfect spot with a lake view. As we ate, boats passed by, showcasing the charm of the Jiangnan water town.

🦀 Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs
Steamed without any seasoning to retain the original freshness. When you open the crab shell, you'll be surprised by the golden crab roe! It's very plump.
The crab meat is also very tender and fragrant.
🦀 Crab roe and gorgon fruit
Sticky gorgon fruit mixed with crab roe, cooked to a thick and flavorful consistency. The texture is super rich, perfect to put on rice for a mouthful of freshness.
🦀 The cooking of crab roe and crab meat is excellent.
The crab roe tofu is super tender and smooth! The crab leg asparagus is very fragrant! The crab meat wontons are a pleasant surprise. I ate several in one go, and they warmed my stomach.
~~
Early autumn is a great time to travel. Spend a day here, enjoy the super plump crab roe, and admire the beautiful lake view. It's so relaxing ✌🏻

Guaranteed not to delete a single comment about a good hairy crab restaurant in Suzhou.
I didn't expect there to be such a beautiful place in Suzhou. Can you imagine? This paddy field lake view crab restaurant actually lets us dine in the paddy field👀👀👀 I have to say it's very creative, and the scenery is indeed very healing!
The crabs in their home are also delicious, authentic Bao's hairy crabs, very large and fresh, it looks like they were caught in Yangcheng Lake that day, the crab roe inside is full, and the oil flows out as soon as the lid is opened!
The bamboo basket pumpkin porridge is also my favorite drink, the light sweetness is so refreshing, 📌 it can be paired with crabs to relieve greasiness, soft, fragrant and sweet, it's so delicious!!
I also ordered a braised yellow croaker. The braised taste is richer than steamed. The fish is quite large and fresh. 📍 The meat is delicate and very flavorful~
Overall, the experience is still good, it is indeed the best quality hairy crab in Lotus Island.🦀

The photos I took today!!
Each photo I took today is full of the colors and details of life.
The sun was shining brightly, and I came to Lotus Island with a love for life. The beauty of this island is far more than what meets the eye. As I walked deeper into the island, I was pleasantly surprised to find a bamboo raft landscape, which was as quiet and beautiful as a paradise. The bamboo raft floated gently on the water, surrounded by lush bamboo forests and clear lakes, forming a picturesque picture.
Having a meal on a bamboo raft is an indescribable enjoyment. The surrounding scenery seems to be magnified several times, and every detail is clearly visible. The breeze brushed my face, bringing a hint of coolness and the scent of nature, making me feel as if I was in a peaceful dream. The sparkling lake adds a bit of dynamism and spirituality to this quiet lunch.
Not only that, this is also an excellent photography experience. The scenery of the bamboo raft is very photogenic, whether it is shot alone or as a background, it is very beautiful. Every shutter sound seems to capture the beauty of this moment, making people seem to be intoxicated in this tranquility and harmony.
For the upcoming National Day, I have specially organized a worthwhile guide to eating and drinking. Lotus Island is not only picturesque, but also has many delicacies waiting for you to discover. You can enjoy food on a bamboo raft, or you can taste fresh seafood in a lakeside restaurant. These do not require too much money, you can take satisfactory photos and enjoy a good day with a small budget.
In general, Lotus Island is a place worth visiting. Whether you are here to enjoy the beautiful scenery or to find food, it can meet your needs. Don't hesitate, bring your camera and appetite, and spend a wonderful National Day on Lotus Island!
