There are four main modules to visit in Suzhou, gardens, ancient towns, Taihu Lake, and Suzhou Industrial Park. The first time you come to Suzhou, you must visit the classic gardens Humble Administrator’s Garden and Tiger Hill. The rest are similar, with the ancient town Zhouzhuang and Tongli are the best and most famous, but Shantang Street and Pingjiang Road in the ancient city of Suzhou are also rich in cultural heritage. Taihu Lake is the best place in the golden autumn season. Now there are no hairy crabs to eat and there are fewer fruits. Suzhou The industrial park is most famous for the Jinji Lake Scenic Area, which is a completely modern city.
