DuShu Lake

#createwithtrip This place is called the Dushu lake, and it’s one of the popular lakes in Suzhou and is know for it’s calm and peaceful atmosphere. I was able to visit this place and with me I brought my trusted drone and took to the skies for these shots from this location you have a distant view of the Suzhou skyline which includes the gate of the orient, the ifs tower and there you can also see an interesting spherical structure at the center of the lake which is really awesome.  there are different parks and so many different locations that you can relax or maybe have a nice afternoon fishing or kayaking on this lake. #suzhou #awesomepic #createwithtrip #travelinspiration #travel #suzhoutravel #summervacation #urbanexplorer #scenicspotguide #scenicspotphotoguide.

like I’ve said in my last few posts this place is not a Very Popular place in Suzhou. Only a few people that I know have actually heard about this place and that was basically after recommended this Spot to them. The first time that I’ve visited this place was purely by accident I searched on my maps for any nearby parks and I noticed a very small park that was located in The southern region of Suzhou. This place has a very unique and beautiful aesthetic. you are greeted by a very glorious entrance. And as you walk around the park you would notice different temples and different sculptures And monuments that really make this park very beautiful. #scenicspotguide #travelinspiration #unforgettableexperiences #urbanexplorer #momentsmission

when people visit Suzhou, the place that most people visit, would be the gusu area, which is the old town, and the SIP area which is mostly around the center of Suzhou. However there is a location or generally an area that Is just as developed and as beautiful as the Suzhou center but not as popular and that is the Dushu lake area. this area is located sort of south east of the city and has many Highrisers and many beautiful parks and sights . there is also the Dushu lake where you have the amazing lake view, and you also have the egret park, if you’re looking for more nature and vegetation. there are also a number of malls and cinemas and galleries you can visit so you’re sure to have a great time. #momentsmission #travelinspiration #christmasgiveaway #nationalpark #unforgettableexperiences #urbanexplorer

Oh of the lovely things about Suzhou is that the city is filled with really beautiful and unique parks. this particular park is located at the north side of the Dushu lake! I would actually say that this is one of the parks that are fairly hidden but absolutely beautiful. a great place to have a simple picnic with the family or friends, also a great place to watch the sunset or admire the lake. one thing that really stood out was the pattern at the center of the park from ground level you might see and appreciate it, but from above it’s really breathtaking this is also a place that is extremely photogenic so if you’re looking to get those banger photos, then this is the place to go! #momentsmission #scenicspotguide #travelinspiration #nationalpark #unforgettableexperiences

I always love to go on these photography walks every once in a while. and on this occasion I was at the Dushu lake church. why is it called this? well the answer is simple. because it’s a church that is located right by the Dushu lake. This church is actually located in the egret park right beside Moon Bay Area in Suzhou. the fact that it’s located in a park makes visiting the church very scenic. One other reason why this church is quite popular is because many newly wedded couples come here to take their wedding photos! 💒 🤵‍♂️ 👰‍♀️. it is a really beautiful place and I definitely recommend that you check it out if you’re around the area. #momentsmission #travelinspiration #christmasgiveaway #mapletrees #luxuryhotel #unforgettableexperiences #naturalwonders

one Location that I would always enjoy visiting is the Dushu lake and that is so for many reasons. First off, the Dushu lake Is situated in a fantastic location, it is directly south of the jinji lake which means it’s location around the center of Suzhou. this lake is actually not as popular as the jinji lake, but it’s just as beautiful. For that reason there aren’t too many people or tourists that flood the area. you might see lots of families camping in some of the open fields. and that gives this lake more of a simple nostalgic feel. I also enjoy flying my drone here, as it is such a stress free experience. Hope you enjoy the shots! #scenicspotguide #travelinspiration #decembertravel #momentsmission #naturalwonders

Suzhou is a really beautiful place with many lakes, however the two most popular lakes in Suzhou are the jinji lake, and the Dushu lake which are located in the central part of Suzhou these two lakes are located just side by side to each other. the most popular lake of the two is the jinji lake, however the Dushu lake is absolutely beautiful as well. the north part of Dushu lake is the spot that I would recommend to visit, this is one of the least visited part. there are a few gardens and spots that you can appreciate the lake from. and I was able to capture these at the autumn period when the trees looked gorgeous, bu it was still pretty cold lol.#mapletrees #nationalpark #unforgettableexperiences #urbanexplorer #scenicspotguide #travelinspiration #momentsmission

With the weather getting colder, the ginkgo and maple leaves have fallen one after another, leaving the dawn redwoods standing tall for a while longer. Suzhou is famous for its Suzhou-style gardens, but if you want to see dawn redwoods, you don't have to squeeze into the gardens. Instead, you should visit the more spacious parks. Here is a recommended free route for viewing dawn redwoods. 👉Dushu Lake Ecological Park➡️Dushu Lake Church (Dushu Lake Park)➡️Shili Shantang ——- ✔️Dushu Lake Ecological Park: The ecological park is quite large and not crowded. The wooden walkway inside is particularly photogenic. 🎫Ticket: Free 🚇Suzhou Metro Line 2, Dushu Lake South Station, Exit 2, 200 meters walking distance. 🌟Nearby is the Yinshan Lake Gelin Park Mall, with lots of food options and a 🥤Tea King shop. ——- ✔️Dushu Lake Park: ‼️It's quite close to 'Dushu Lake Ecological Park,' but many people mistake 'Dushu Lake Park' for 'Dushu Lake Ecological Park,' which they are not. ⛪️The Dushu Lake Christian Church is located inside Dushu Lake Park. Besides family activities and walking in the park, the church is the most worth visiting. On weekends, you'll see many Lolitas taking photos here. 🌟The cross in the lake by the church is the most distinctive feature of the church, something you won't see at other churches. 🎫Ticket: Free 🚇Suzhou Metro Line 2, Dushu Lake Neighborhood Center Station, Exit 4, about 600 meters walking distance. There is also a parking lot for convenience. ——- ✔️Shili Shantang: Shantang River starts from Jinji Lake in the west and extends to the Wusong River's Niuyu Mouth in the east, with a total length of about ten Chinese miles, hence the name 'Shili Shantang.' The dawn redwoods of Shili Shantang are definitely worth seeing. With the leisurely lake water and the redwoods gradually turning red, a painting of early winter has been drawn for you. The greenway by the lake is perfect for walking, jogging, and dog walking. The dawn redwoods by the lake are even more beautiful, making it irresistible to stand under them and 📷take photos. There are many people taking photos on weekends, so it's recommended to go early. ✈️Drones can be flown nearby, but be careful as there are many trees. 🚇Suzhou Metro Line 5, Hualian Station, Exit 4, with a parking lot nearby. 🎫Ticket: Free Dushu Lake

Special forces travel to Suzhou. Apart from the nearly two days of travel by car, we visited Jinji Lake + Dushu Lake + Suzhou Center Oriental Gate + watched the music fountain + took a cruise at Moonlight Pier + Eslite Bookstore + Hanshan Temple + Tiger Hill + Humble Administrator's Garden + Suzhou Museum, Lion Forest (didn't make a reservation, just passed by) + Guanqian Street + Pingjiang Road + Cangqian (passed by) + Tongli Ancient Town (not fun) We visited off-peak and caught the last day of free bus in Suzhou and half-price tickets for scenic spots. The whole trip felt very nice, but there were still quite a lot of people, because it was after all the Spring Festival. The Humble Administrator's Garden is really beautiful and full of artistic conception, but there is no desire to raise the camera, because the lens is full of people, and there are a lot of people shooting in the garden, half an hour of tour time is spent in squeezing people and avoiding the lens. Tiger Hill is the best scenic spot for experience, suitable for arranging plenty of time to walk around, the view of the vast plain from the top is indeed a little shocking for the 'mountain people'. The Eslite Bookstore is also a big surprise, it is a layout of the mall that I have never seen before, full of some rare things (although dead expensive), good to visit! Metaphor: enlarged version of greenparty, Miniso, a collection of various jewelry stores (only shopping, not buying) The Jinji Lake Music Fountain is free, good looking, the fountain time is unexpectedly long, accompanied by music like a professional dance program of the Spring Festival Gala, strong viewing. Although there are really a lot of people, the special police maintaining order seem to have pulled five or six cars, standing in a row every few meters, and safely completed the evacuation after the program ended. In terms of food, I only ate one meal of Suzhou cuisine, and ate the 188 squirrel mandarin fish. It's delicious, but it's too sweet, I can't eat a few bites and I'm tired, there's no fishy taste, it's like a starch fish block with sweet and sour sauce. The osmanthus cake sent by the restaurant is delicious, it is a taste that I didn't imagine before, the outside is soft, and the inside is glutinous. In addition, I also ate a very delicious Hunan restaurant, the horseshoe sauce meat bun with a long queue on the northwest street of the Humble Administrator's Garden. The only regret is that I didn't eat any snacks, because every meal was super full. In terms of travel, the subway station is a distance from each scenic spot, it is not that you arrive at the scenic spot as soon as you leave the subway station, which makes me a bit strange. But the bus is free (angry praise) and it is also convenient. The old city is indeed complex and congested, and self-driving is not recommended. In summary, good weather and good mood + parents burst gold coins + good food and good accommodation = good travel
