Everyone has a special city in their hearts, either childhood memories, happy childhood interests, or a city where they have worked hard, recording their own growth process, or an inexplicable fate. They have been there several times, but each time I have different feelings. And I think that Suzhou must be a special existence for me, so that I, who has been here many times, can like this city from the bottom of my heart time and time again.

This time, I am honored to be invited to join Shangri-La to explore new ways to play the city.

The first stop to stay in the hotel is many details, with ubiquitous art and design and Jiangnan's unique ingenuity running through it. The visual rooms in the graceful space, to the Chinese red wall, to the welcome desserts, or an elegant corner of the room, all exude rich vitality, and everything around you is presented in front of you flexibly. Many times, artistic language is a unique aesthetic expression, as if mutual achievements are the best tacit understanding.

Come on, join me with the mountains and lakes to experience the poetry and distance of Suzhou Garden Fragrance up close.

Gentle and reserved, with a Jiangnan temperament coming from the face

Luxury rooms with a strong sense of spatial design can feel a touch of Jiangnan's warmth and subtleties when you stay in them. The murals, sofas, and carpet are cleverly integrated into them. The open design rationally layout the entire space and adds visual added More new ideas.

The bathroom is separated from dry and wet, and the oversized bathtub can relieve the fatigue of a day's travel. At the same time, the dressing table on the side allows female guests to feel more intimate details, and the makeup time becomes relaxed and comfortable.

L'Occitane's full set of toiletries demonstrates the attentive quality.

The office area can allow business people to start efficient work at any time.

Stroll leisurely in it, relax in the swimming pool, sweat in the gym, and have a healthy lifestyle to relax your body and mind happily.

Explore the elegant ideas in the hotel

Nowadays, I often like to stroll around the hotel and discover some personalized ideas. Strolling in Suzhou Yuanxiangli, the Internet celebrity wall located in the lobby is not to be missed. You can check in here to take photos and blend into the festive atmosphere in minutes.

Another Internet celebrity wall is next to the restaurant on the second floor. In the late autumn, this scene in front of you is like a door of joy that will open for you.

The revolving staircase next to the gym presents a lively atmosphere. The green trees outside the window are lush, but looking down is elegant and graceful.

Such resting areas can be seen everywhere in the hotel, creating an elegant charm. Murals, pillows, and fabric sofas are full of affinity.

Even the counter where check-in is handled has a vibrant scenery, exquisite and luxurious.

During the dinner, new and old friends gathered together to celebrate this happy moment. The light was like moonlight shining down. Everyone raised their glasses to celebrate. The cheers were the joy of meeting and the warmth of reunion.

At midnight, you can meet your friends to go to the bar for a dance, or taste a fresh cocktail together. The romance at midnight starts at your heart.

Back in the room, the waiter had already carefully prepared a good night snack. A bowl of chicken head rice and red osmanthus stewed with white fungus, which warmed the stomach and heart.

Autumn is strong, stroll through Lotus Island

After breakfast, everyone set off from the hotel and went to Lotus Island, which has a wetland scenery. After going through buses and cruises, they were able to board the island in about two hours. As a newly opened scenic spot, there are not many people here, but it presents tranquility. The temperament, residual lotus, boats, pavilions, and charming autumn poetic paintings appear in front of you.

Yiyuan, the name is particularly poetic. In fact, it is a folk museum with characteristics of the water town, which vividly reflects the unique folk culture of the water town in the Yangcheng Lake area, the living style of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, and the delicate and elegant living atmosphere is presented between small bridges and flowing water.

Hundreds of fish specimens living in Yangcheng Lake are displayed.

Ships, green trees, houses by the water's edge, watching the sunrise and sunset, listening to the song of birds in the gap, isn't this the life you yearn for?

Kengo Kuma, a master check-in architect, works the world's most beautiful passenger terminal. The huge triangular roof is integrated into the ecological and natural surrounding environment. It is close to simplicity and has an oriental charm.

Meet Pingjiang Road, mottled beautiful slow times

Do you need a reason to like a city? Every time I come to Suzhou, I choose to come to Pingjiang Road for a walk, and this time is no exception. The waterways here are parallel and the river streets are adjacent, continuing the urban square pattern since the Tang and Song Dynasties. It is the most complete preserved ancient street in Suzhou, but it shows new vitality based on the old neighborhood.

Compared with Guanqian Street, which is separated by an alley, the clean and simple atmosphere of life here and the bustling noise just a few feet away are like two worlds. Stroll along the river, walk through the green houses, blue sky and other misty rain, and be intoxicated in this mottled and beautiful time.

You look at the scenery from the bridge

The scenery watchers are looking at you upstairs

The bright moon adorns your windows

You decorate other people's dreams

The night in the water town is calm with a touch of agility. Outside the indigo houses, the passing boats represent a little romance unique to Jiangnan.

When you come to Suzhou, you can't miss the Peach Blossom Garden. Looking at the long queue at the door, you can feel the strong appeal of this restaurant.

The grapefruit vodka waiting for me in my room early is especially suitable for a drink on this evening, which is a bit warmer than Beijing.

When Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs meet Huaiyang cuisine

The autumn wind rises, and the crab feet become fat.

At the right time to search for crabs, in this late autumn season, what better to capture taste buds than a few hairy crabs that have been picked up and served on the table in less than four hours? Behind the delicacy of Jiangnan Jishi is the highest respect for the ingredients.

Look at this full of crab roe. It is a rich ingredient and a delicious taste to the heart.

I have heard of Huaiyang cuisine for a long time, but when you come to Suzhou, you must not miss this cuisine. With rivers and lakes as the main ingredients, the top cooking art is fresh, elegant, meticulous and exquisite, showing the superb imagination of knife skills, heat, collocation and shape. It seems to be writing poetry and painting, and expresses its strong traditional Chinese cultural heritage.

Recommended dishes: Squirrel Mandarin fish, crab powder and chicken head rice stewed with sturgeon dragon fish tendon, yellow croaker crab soup simmered noodles, steamed Taihu double fresh, Jiangnan veal, golden autumn cooked drunk crab, all of which can be tasted at Xiangxi Garden, Suzhou Garden.

Set sail by Jinji Lake

Looking out from the room, you can see the beautiful scenery of Jinji Lake. Suzhou Garden Fragrance, which has a dominant position, is super suitable for a vacation. After lunch, we met to come to the lake and felt the autumn breeze blowing against our faces. The Ferris wheel in the distance and the Eastern Gate (commonly known as the "Big Autumn Trousers") were the best backgrounds for shooting. We rode a sailboat and followed the direction of the wind. Wandering by Jinji Lake, it was comfortable and comfortable.

When encountering strong winds and waves, turning sideways is still a bit thrilling.

Reading time, in Eslite Bookstore

Suzhou Yuanxiang is not far from Eslite Bookstore and is a five-minute walk. You can read a book, drink tea, or visit the life market to spend a wonderful afternoon.

After a short three-day trip to Suzhou, I discovered many new ways to play in Suzhou. In fact, everyone has a unique city in their hearts, which is like an inexplicable fate, a heart-warming, and a long-lost quiet time.

Slow life in Suzhou is poetic, and it is also a touch of exquisite atmosphere unique to Jiangnan.
