I have visited the Yangtze River Delta many times, and many ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River are familiar to me. On the other hand, Suzhou East Taihu Lake, also known as Suzhou Bay Resort, visited it seriously for the first time and found that the natural environment here is super good, with a giant park, a magnificent landmark building Grand Theater, as well as various Internet celebrity restaurants, hotel hot springs and other supporting facilities, and even a water sports center on East Taihu Lake, where sailing competitions will be held.

This place is especially suitable for parent-child tours, sports, or weekend vacations. My Shanghai friends who accompanied me have played around Shanghai all over the world, and this is actually the first time they are here.

The main attractions in Suzhou Bay are free. The most landmark building is the Suzhou Bay Grand Theater, which is connected by two "streamers". It was designed by internationally renowned designer Christian de Bauzanbach and is the third largest in the country. Theater complex. Whether viewed from a distance or up close, it is majestic. The two "ribbons" just explain the meaning of Wujiang District as the hometown of silk. Walking on the "streamers", you can see a panoramic view of the nearby landscape.

The resort's lakefront line is like an S-shaped fluttering silk ribbon, and it is also like water sleeves in Kunqu Opera.

What many people don't know is that the interior of the Grand Theater can be visited. In addition to the Theater Hall, the lines inside are also extremely beautiful and the light is full of design. Looking at online information, the Grand Theater is full of black technology. It is called the "8K Future Theater" and is the world's largest immersive technology performing arts theater. I chose a special night to watch a drama "Song of Eternal Regret" here. The plot moved my friends and I very much, and the live audio equipment was perfect.

At some specific times, such as during the May Day holiday, around 6 o'clock in the evening, there will be large-scale fountain performances. The fountain interpretation design is unique and is at the leading level in the world. The highest spray water can reach 120 meters. When the fountain ends, the audience refuses to leave for a long time.

No matter from which angle or from the air, the Grand Theater will not disappoint.

The Grand Theater is the finishing touch of Suzhou Bay. Perhaps what the future city will look like is the Taihu New City of Suzhou Bay.

From Fountain Square to the north, there are various styles of gourmet restaurants along the way, including a super beautiful bookstore and an academy. This is very suitable for taking photos and checking in. A little further north, there is a Shangsai Sailing Club. There are some domestic water sports clubs on the beach, but this is the only club as large as the lake.

When I was abroad, I always saw foreigners playing kayaking, sailing, etc. in cities, but there were not many cities in China where they could play. This club has yachts, sailing, kayaking and other water sports. It's not expensive after asking. The membership is 10,000 yuan, so you can play as you please and discipline them. In my impression, sailing is the tallest project in the world, and this charge is really not expensive. When I saw the boss chatting, the boss said that he was purely a sailing enthusiast and participated in many foreign events just because he liked it and wanted to popularize this event, so the price was not high and he lost money every year. This boss is super cute and always smiles.

After looking at the environment here and this club, I want to settle here. But if you say that I am a child selling houses, you really are not. Suzhou Bay is a place where you can't buy a house even if you have money. Everyone is optimistic about the development of the "City of the Future".

Starting from the Sailing Club to the north, there is the green forest area, Suzhou Bay Ecological Park, 7-meter landscape embankment, coniferous forest, Wangyou Lake, coniferous forest, plant huts, etc., all over the scenic spots, walking on the long plank road, the air is so good that you can breathe in big gulps. It is also a great place to ride bicycles. If it is late March, when the cherry blossoms on Cherry Blossom Avenue are in full bloom, they are as beautiful as a pink swimming dragon dancing. Being among them is also like a fairyland.

Further north is Wangong Dike, the quietest "urban green lung" in Wujiang. A forest avenue such as the one in "Game of Thrones" has become a well-deserved check-in point for Internet celebrities. In the secret forest, portraits are particularly beautiful. The bridge on the small river has the charm of the small bridge on the Canal St. Martin in Paris. Further inside, there is the landscape of green leather trains and many catering cars, like a fairy tale world. If you want to take good photos of your girlfriend, this is absolutely right.

The hot springs on this side of Suzhou Bay are very good.

The most recommended one is Wangyan Hot Spring, which has an elegant environment and green trees. The soaking pool is hidden in the middle of the green trees, making it quite private. Of course, the facilities are also very complete, including geothermal fumigation rooms, floating afternoon tea, etc. Stay at Huayi Hot Spring Resort Hotel next to Wang Yan Hot Spring at night. The two families are connected together. Huayi Hotel also has a hot spring pool that you can soak in at any time. The hotel has a beautiful environment and it is good to take a stroll.

In addition to Huayi Hot Spring, East Taihu Hotel is also very recommended. There is also a hot spring area here, and the little girl at the front desk is very fun. She always asks me what I need again and again, and also takes the initiative to introduce me to the soup pool. There are many people here on weekends and short holidays. There are few people in normal times. It is very suitable for visiting on weekdays. The hot springs are particularly comfortable.

East Taihu Hotel has the "best" location and faces the beautiful scenery of Taihu Lake. The hotel is very large, with villa areas, landscape areas, and a boat ride from the dock to the opposite island. The landscape area is lush and has beautiful scenery. The facilities are also very good. In addition to the hot springs, there is also a large swimming pool and a video game area. I didn't pay attention at first, otherwise I would have gone in to play. The hotel is divided into a large villa area and an overall hotel area. The trail in the middle passes through wetlands and forests, which is also beautiful. The rooms are fully equipped, among which I like the children's room very much. It is decorated with a fairy tale atmosphere.

In addition to these two hot spring hotels, there is also a brand Le Meridien. If you want to stay in a B & B, there is a special recommendation, which is Baixiangli Green Water Family. B & Bs are small three-story villas. The courtyard is very warm. There are also animal areas, bunnies and a super edible fragrant pig. You can cook yourself in a separate small house and eat in a separate small house. The environment is great.

Le Méridien is close to the Sports Park in Suzhou Bay. There is an Internet celebrity coffee shop in the sports park: LIM COFEE. We had a Western-style lunch here. To be honest, it was not just delicious, the environment was so beautiful. The room was orange-red, the table was covered with flowers, and the plates and wine glasses perfectly blended with the style of the meal and the background. Western food is also very authentic and delicious, and the price is moderate. Many girls come here to check in to take pictures and have a cup of coffee.

If you are traveling with your children, it is highly recommended to visit Huabanwan Scenic Area. You can cook your own picnics here, and there is also a huge Peacock Garden. It is said that there were dozens of peacocks at first, but later, due to good breeding, they have grown to more than 200 now. When feeding peacocks, they walked among the more than 200 peacocks, and the peacocks were not afraid of people. The most interesting thing was the "Peacock Flying Southeast" program at 14 o'clock in the afternoon. Dozens of peacocks were driven onto high wooden platforms and flew down from above. The peacocks really could fly. Then the large troops will be released to stroll around and get close to passers-by at will.

Jade Space

The coffee cups from Zhijian Bookstore are very interesting

There is also a place to visit is Shengjiashe (Read She Sisheng) Old Street. There are many silk and qipao shops on this street. Wujiang is a place rich in silk, so you can come here to visit the shops at the end of your shopping. You can also try on qipao and take photos on the old street. There is also a special restaurant on the old street, opened by singer Li Yugang. It is called "Jade Space". The layout here is very elegant and the dishes are also very refined, which is very suitable for taking photos.

Itinerary recommendations, three days and two nights: main attractions, Wangongdi, Grand Theater, Ecological Park, Sports Park, Huabanwan; Internet celebrity check-in points, LIM Coffee, OCC Coffee, Aimei Afternoon Tea, Jade Space, Shangshu Prefecture Bookstore (Ecological Park), Zhijian Bookstore (Shengjiashe); accommodation, East Taihu Hotel, Wangyan Hot Spring and Huayi Hot Spring Hotels, Baixiangli Green Water Family, Wujiang Hotel, etc.

Transportation time: Driving from Shanghai Hongqiao to Suzhou Bay is 1 hour and 20 minutes, and from Suzhou North Railway Station to Suzhou Bay is about 50 minutes.

Special suggestions: During May Day, hotels may be tense. I personally recommend coming here on weekdays or weekends, which is relatively relaxed. Especially on weekdays, there are really not many people here who soak in the hot springs. In terms of shooting, if you have drones to take with you, the aerial photography of the Grand Theater is particularly beautiful, but you have to be extra careful when looking at the fountain, because the spray water is too high and it is easy to shoot down small planes.
