Morning tour:
Canglang Pavilion-"Suzhou's oldest garden" Canglang Pavilion was built near the water, and water is her dress. Pacing the Canglang Pavilion, before entering the garden gate, I saw a pool of green water, rugged rocks and winding corridors around the garden. The biggest difference between the layout of Canglang Pavilion and other gardens in Suzhou is that it is transparent. The rockery in the park is integrated with the pool water outside the park, so you can explore the scenery inside a little from the outside. The park is dominated by rocks, with towering old trees and a pool at the foot of the mountain. The scenery is as green as walking into the real Shan Ye forest. Canglang Pavilion is a good place to rest and meditate because there are not many people on weekdays. By the way, you can also visit Suzhou Art Museum and Mr. Yan Memorial Hall next door. There are oil paintings on display, and the Canglang Pavilion is a one-vote system.
Separated from Canglang Pavilion is Suzhou Confucian Temple, which was founded by Fan Zhongyan, a famous minister in the Northern Song Dynasty and has a history of nearly a thousand years. The important buildings that have been preserved are Lingxingmen, Jiymen and Dacheng Hall. There is a Suzhou Monument Museum in the Confucian Temple, among which the four Song Dynasty monuments "Heaven, Earth, People and City" are the most famous. In addition to these four Song Dynasty monuments, the Confucian Temple also collected more than 3,000 stone carvings and nearly 10,000 rubbings. If you are interested in these things, you must come and feel them.

After eating delicious food in Phoenix Street, you can visit the Twin Towers in Suzhou in the afternoon. The Twin Towers are located in the courtyard of the Twin Towers in Dinghuisi Lane. The two towers are almost identical in appearance. The twin towers closely connected like this are unique in China, because it is quite difficult to build two towers at such a close distance. Many architectural scholars come here every year, and some architectural professors even bring their students here for on-site teaching. It is not only these that attract their attention, but also the tower gate with a height of 10 meter on the tower crown makes them unbelievable. It is understood that these two pagodas are all made of pig iron, each weighing 5 tons. How did people at that time carry this behemoth up there? You're here, too. Find out. Next, you may wish to hike and shop in nearby Shiquan Street. Shiquan Street still retains the traditional pattern of "land and water parallel and river street adjacent". Looking around, the white walls and tiles are patchwork, integrating culture, tourism, leisure and food. On a sunny afternoon, listening to jazz on the terrace by the river, time slipped away inadvertently.

When you visit Netscape, you should sit down. You can wait and see. Around the pool, you can count the fish before and wait for the moon in the pavilion. The shadow of flowers moves to the wall, and peaks and mountains act as windows, just like natural pictures. I don't think the garden is very small. Visit Netscape Garden in the evening, and remember to visit the "Moon Pavilion" to see the "Three moons". It is surrounded by water on three sides, and there is a big mirror hanging in the middle of the hall. Whenever the moon rises, you can see three bright moons in the sky, water and mirror.
