Suzhou

Suzhou makes an art of looking closely. Its classical gardens frame ponds, rocks and pavilions as changing scenes, while the old town follows a network of canals and narrow lanes.

Begin with the Humble Administrator’s Garden and the waterside streets of Pingjiang Road. With another day, venture to Tongli for stone bridges and canal-side life. Leave room for a slow meal, a cup of tea or a closer look at the region’s silk and embroidery traditions.
