Spring in Suzhou comes with agility and lightness, yet it remains silent. Just as you were a little careless, with a sudden look up, spring arrived.

Ten miles of spring breeze, two bright moons, vegetable immortals flying down the Qionglou, the ink and wash of Gusu City, accompanied by the unique beauty of Jiangnan swaying with the spring breeze.

Suzhou in spring is dyeing the most poetic spring colors in the world one by one. Strolling through it, you are like walking into a painting of ink and wash, filled with unrestrained and intense joy in your heart.

[At the Right Time for Travel]

Amidst the swaying waves, swim into the bustling Jiangnan region.
In the long alleys of the market, fireworks gather and people ask when they spread out.

The unique charm of Jiangnan water towns constitutes the fundamental temperament of this city. Everything in Sucheng is closely related to water, which gives the city a leisurely and comfortable experience.

The pink walls and black tiles on the shore are arranged in a neat and orderly manner. In front and behind the house, there are elderly people sitting idle on benches chatting, women watering the flowers and plants in front of the door, aunties washing by the river, and children strolling with small dogs.

Taking the ground as a seat and insects as companions, find a natural green space to experience the fun of camping with children, be an explorer in nature, and enjoy warm parent-child time.

In spring, when going to Suzhou, I want to sit by the window of a tea house on the shore and don't want anything. I drink a cup of spring tea, look at the Suzhou water outside the window, listen to Suzhou tunes, and occasionally hear the dialect of Wu Nong's soft language, which is a multiple enjoyment of sight, hearing, and taste.

Spring is beautiful and the breeze is gentle. Let's meet in the spring of the Taihu Lake Lake. The vast expanse of lake light stretches across the sky, and the shadows of fishing sails and gulls dot, freely wandering among the green mountains and waters.

The lotus leaves are lush, the lotus flowers are shy, and the lotus pond, hidden by green trees, lazily emits the soft light of Jiangnan.

As the day draws to a close and the lanterns begin to shine, the excitement of Suzhou at night officially begins. Humble Administrator's Garden, Netmaster's Garden, Canglang Pavilion, Shantang Street, and Jinji Lake showcase the novel beauty of this city.

The night was very quiet, with only the sound of frogs, everything seemed so peaceful. In contrast to the sea of lights, neon lights reflect on the river surface, and cars and ships flow colorful in the Milky Way. There is a combination of movement and stillness, complementing each other, making people feel like they are in a dream in a poem.

[New gameplay for trendsetters]

When people ask, there will always be one or two winds that fill my dreams. Exhibitions, theaters, markets, and residences have added some new excitement to the city.

Exhibition

The renowned city of Baiguan never lacks exhibitions, and there are always various exciting things waiting for you to discover at any time.

To come to Suzhou, you must check in at various museums and exhibitions. Understanding Suzhou starts here.

Recent New Exhibitions

Theater

Suzhou also has a variety of new and colorful theaters, bringing various performances including traditional Chinese opera, stage theaters, and parent-child theaters to meet everyone's needs in all aspects.

As night falls and the lanterns begin to shine, accompanied by the tinkling of strings, Wu Nong softly sings in a unique style at the Jiangnan Theater in Sucheng. The rich forms of expression bring the unique literary and artistic aesthetics of Jiangnan to your side.

Suzhou is a city with drama. For many Suzhou people, Kunqu opera is a hidden pride, Pingtan is a spiritual nourishment in the blood, and singing and dancing are energy stored under their feet.

The saying "How can we know the spring scenery is like this until we reach the garden" immerses us in the world of the "ancestor of all kinds of plays".

Market

The spiritual energy of a city, the bustling streets and markets, filled with the flourishing of human fireworks. Some markets may seem like a vegetable market on the surface, but in reality, they can be seen as a concrete manifestation of "human fireworks". Not only can they take you to touch the texture of a city, but they can also allow you to taste various traditional Suzhou cuisine.

Meeting three or five friends in this bustling and bustling place filled with fireworks, gathering for leisure and shopping together is truly unforgettable.

Some markets, whether retro or modern, turn hot and bustling markets into a scenic spot in Suzhou, creating a different taste for real life.

Living in Jiangnan Village

Seeing the hustle and bustle, inhabiting the mountains and wilderness, and meeting the spring of Jiangnan, is our last chance to arrive as promised

*If you want to experience the hustle and bustle of the city, you can choose the luxurious hotels by Jinji Lake and the high-end residences by Dushu Lake.

The colorful lights in the commercial area are all on, making the buildings more beautiful. The flowing light shines brightly, complementing each other and shining brightly. It is truly heart stopping. A flowing painting, a three-dimensional scene, and a charming symphony.

*If you want to experience the leisure of rural areas, find a quiet and elegant homestay, enjoy a secluded landscape, and encounter a comfortable life in the Peach Blossom Land.

Drinking tea to admire the scenery, teasing dogs and playing with cats, leaving behind a unique flavor in the most primitive rural countryside.

Let's slow down together here, calm in favor and disgrace, and watch the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court; I have no intention of leaving or staying, I hope the clouds in the sky roll and relax.

[Delicious Cuisine]

In the third month of Yangchun, the Suzhou people, who value not eating from time to time, welcomed the fork
A variety of spring delicacies that make people's fingers skip a beat.

The seasonal delicacies from Suzhou that were missed in the past are now coming at the right time with spring.

Those who love to eat meat cannot miss sauce meat. The bright red color is appetizing to look at. Lay a layer of green cauliflower underneath, which not only matches meat and vegetables, but also exudes a spring vibe of "green leaves lining red flowers".

Those who love to eat aquatic products are even happier! Qingming snails are better than geese. Before Qingming, snails were the fattest and most beautiful time of the year. When the rapeseed flowers bloom, the pond snakehead fish also reaches its most plump and beautiful time. They are fried, boiled, stewed, and roasted... no matter how they are cooked, they are incredibly delicious~

There are also Qingtuanzi, pickled Du Xian, fava beans, fermented rice cakes, strung waist cake, Chinese toon sprouts, Fengzhen big meat noodles, braised bamboo shoots, water shield vegetables, and Malantou, all of which are just the tip of the iceberg in Suzhou cuisine.

Taste a cup of Biluochun and another spring limited malt cake. For Old Suzhou, this kind of spring is considered full.

The familiar and bustling Suzhou city has returned and reunited with beauty.

Suzhou is like a peaceful woman who meets you unconsciously. Her intoxicating smile lingers in your heart, making you involuntarily reminisce and linger on until you meet her again.

The longing for a new life is in Suzhou.
