- Jichang Garden - Nestled within Huishan Ancient Town in Wuxi, Jichang Garden is one of China’s most renowned classical gardens. Established over 400 years ago, its graceful pavilions, meandering paths, and a pond reflecting the nearby Huishan Mountain create a landscape that appears naturally formed rather than constructed.
Its design was so esteemed that Emperor Qianlong replicated it twice for Beijing’s Summer Palace and Chengde Mountain Resort.
- Huishan Old Town - Experience a living painting along the Grand Canal. Huishan Ancient Town in Wuxi provides a serene, more genuine alternative to bustling water towns like Zhouzhuang or Wuzhen.
Stroll through ancient lanes bordered by traditional white-walled buildings, stone bridges arching over tranquil canals, and ancient banyan trees shading teahouses. Locals still enjoy morning tea and play mahjong by the water here.
Visit the legendary Second Spring under Heaven (famously sampled by Emperor Qianlong) and Jichang Garden—a classic Ming Dynasty garden that inspired Beijing’s Summer Palace. Also, explore the Huishan Clay Figurine Museum, home to the iconic “Grand Ah Fu” folk art.
Ideal for a half-day getaway from Shanghai or Suzhou. No entrance ticket is required for the town itself—wander freely, then pay small fees for gardens and attractions you wish to enter.
- Taihu Yuantouzhu Scenic - A vast peninsula resembling a turtle head extending into Taihu Lake, Wuxi’s premier natural attraction. Spring unveils a sea of pink cherry blossoms (among China’s finest), while autumn transforms the lakeside hills into shades of gold and red.
