- Humble Administrator’s Garden - Upon arrival, guests will be immediately taken to explore the Humble Administrator’s Garden, a classical garden known for its elegant scenery. Located in the northeast of Suzhou, this garden is the largest and most famous classical garden in the city. With a history spanning over 500 years, it was originally constructed during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) with exquisite and quaint designs, representing Chinese private gardens. The garden is divided into eastern, western, and central sections, each featuring lush greenery, blooming flowers, delicate galleries, long corridors, and unique buildings.
- Suzhou Village - Next, guests will enjoy a sightseeing tour through the old town of Suzhou. Riding on a tricycle, they can admire the ancient architecture that has stood the test of time within the historic district.
- Tongli Town - After lunch, guests will be guided to Tongli Ancient Town. Thanks to its rich history and careful preservation, Tongli offers a wonderful opportunity to appreciate the charm and allure of a water town along the Yangtze River in China. Tongli is a picturesque and historic town interwoven with a network of waterways. Visitors can see 49 ancient bridges and 7 small isles divided by the rivers and their branches. Walking along the flagstone paths around Tongli Town, one can observe that nearly all the traditional homes are built at the water’s edge, with many boats docked in front. The classic Retreat and Reflection Garden (Tuisi Garden) is a highlight, with nearly all its buildings situated by the jade-like pond.
