"Minatominato Hotpot Chaike" is a popular hotpot restaurant that serves eye-catching hotpot. The fish paste is cutely shaped like a penguin or lollipop! This is not only beautiful to look at, but also delicious 😋 We chose two types of soup: spicy mala soup and mild pork and chicken broth soup. Both were rich and delicious ✨ The service was also very good, and they gave us free sorbet and ice cream! It's a popular restaurant that often has a line, so we recommend going early! 📍Minato Minato Firepot/Tea Rest (Wujiang Wanxianghui Store) ☑︎Address L406, Building 4, Wanxianghui, No. 2299, Biping Road, Wujiang District, Suzhou City ☑︎Business hours 10:00-24:00 ☑︎Access Directly connected to Suzhouwandong subway station #Suzhou tourism #Suzhou #China travel #Chinese food #China tourism #China

A Chinese dish that is loved by Chinese people but not well known to Japanese people is "sour cabbage fish". "Sour cabbage fish" is a dish made by simmering pickled sour cabbage and white freshwater fish. "Tai Er Sour Cay Fish" is a popular restaurant that serves this dish! There is always a line no matter when you go. It contains a lot of sour cabbage and chili peppers, so it's so spicy and sour! It's really spicy, but it's so addictive! You can't help but eat it. It went down a lot with rice 😁 If you like spicy food, you should definitely try it at least once! 📍Taijiang Soy Sauce (Wujiang Wanxianghui Branch) ☑︎Address No. 2299, Biping Road, Wujiang District, Suzhou City, Wujiang Wanxianghui L4, L428 Commercial Service ☑︎Business hours Monday to Friday: 11:00-14:00 17:00-21:00 Saturday and Sunday: 11:00-21:00 ☑︎Access Directly connected to Exit 2 of Suzhou Wandong Subway Station #Suzhou tourism #Suzhou #Suzhou travel #China tourism #China travel #China #Chinese food #Gourmet #Gourmet trip

TNN coffee & bar is a popular and stylish cafe with unique interior design. There were many girls taking photos for social media inside the cafe 🤭. We ordered a set for two, which included two coffees and a cake. We could choose from Tiramisu, Pandan Basque Cheesecake, and Coconut Latte Basque Cheesecake. This time, we chose the Pandan Basque Cheesecake that we had been curious about for a while. "Pandan" is a plant used in cakes in Malaysia and Singapore. Recently, it has also been used in cakes and drinks in China. Since I had never tasted it before, I decided to try it for the first time. My impression after eating it was... "tastes like grass"! 😂 It had a strong grassy aroma. I thought it would be delicious once I got used to it. By the way, "Pandan" is called "班兰" in Chinese. If you're curious, give it a try when you see it! 👊 📍TNN COFFEE & BAR (Suzhou Bay Branch) ☑︎Address Room 101, 1st Floor, Building B, Cai Zhi Hui Business Center, No.11588 East Taihu Road, Wujiang District, Suzhou City ☑︎Business Hours 10:00-20:00 ☑︎Access Take the subway to "Suzhou Bay East" station, transfer to bus route 719, get off at "Shuixiu Street East Taihu Road" and walk north for 178m. #OverseasTravel #ChinaTourism #ChinaTravel #Suzhou #Cafe #CafeHopping

Suzhou Wujiang Park is the largest comprehensive urban park in the Songling urban area, known as the 'urban green lung' of Wujiang. It is open for free all day, all year, making it ideal for in-depth cultural exploration and daily leisure activities. I. Complete historical context Modern origins: Its history dates back to 1934, when Songling Town in Wujiang County designated 'Qiyang Mountain' and 28 mu of surrounding land as the first Wujiang Park. Buildings such as the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, Simian Hall, and Xilou were successively constructed, and in 1937, the Monument to Martyr Qian Digen was erected. Modern setbacks: During the Anti-Japanese War, the park was severely damaged by Japanese forces. After the war, despite repairs, it remained desolate and dilapidated for a long time, subsequently undergoing multiple destructions and phased restorations. Modern park construction: In 1992, the new Wujiang Park officially began construction. It was designed as a comprehensive urban green space leveraging its lush vegetation. In 2001, the 'Happy City' amusement project was completed. Subsequent renovations and upgrades preserved the original green areas while adding various sports and leisure facilities. Evolution of names: After the new Wujiang Park officially opened in 1999, the old Wujiang Park, built in 1934, was renamed Songling Park, creating a historical pattern of two 'Wujiang Parks.' II. Key attractions 1,000-meter health trail: This core route circles the lake, connecting all functional areas of the park. It is an excellent spot for flower viewing and photography when cherry blossoms and roses are in full bloom in spring. Miniature Taihu Lake: Located in the central area of the park, this lake is a scaled-down replica of Taihu Lake. Visitors can take a boat ride, and with the stacked mountains to the northwest, it forms a classical Jiangnan garden landscape. Specialized sports venues: The southwest corner features a 1,500-square-meter exclusive morning exercise area with free power outlets and fitness trails. The former children's playground has been converted into a 3,000-square-meter standard roller skating rink, surrounded by Suzhou-style architectural corridors, offering both sports and relaxation. All-ages recreation area: The northern section includes a medium-sized ice rink and numerous children's play facilities, catering to the leisure needs of visitors of all ages. III. Practical travel information Location: No. 666 Lize Road, Wujiang District, Suzhou. The south gate is the main entrance at No. 666 Lize Road, and it is a 1,500-meter walk from Lize Road Station on Line 4. Supporting services: The park offers full Wi-Fi coverage, and there is a free parking lot at the entrance, making it convenient for both self-driving and public transport. Visiting tips: The light is soft in the early morning or evening. Walking along the lake during these times allows you to avoid crowds and immerse yourself in the relaxed atmosphere of the city's green lung.

🍦 Must-have outfits​ ☀️ Wujiang’s average temperature in August is 27℃ to 34℃, with daytime highs reaching 38℃ and high humidity—a typical sauna day 🥵. I only brought two types of clothes: quick-dry short sleeves and a thin sun-protective shirt, plus a pair of breathable shorts. Definitely don’t wear sandals or flip-flops—Tongli and Zhenze are full of old stone slab roads that get scorching hot during the day and slippery after rain. A pair of soft-soled, non-slip sneakers will save you 👟. Pack a dual-purpose umbrella, high-SPF sunscreen, a neck fan, and mosquito repellent, plus a box of Huoxiang Zhengqi water. August has occasional showers, and mosquitoes are fierce near Taihu Lake and the ancient town waterways. Don’t go out at night without mosquito repellent 🦟. 🚗 Transportation guide​ 🚇 If you’re coming from out of town, take the high-speed train to Suzhou Station or Suzhou North Station, then transfer to Metro Line 4 to Tongli Station. From there, take the Wujiang smart rail T1 demonstration line or bus 725. It’s about a 10-minute ride to Tongli Ancient Town, and the smart rail is free 🎉. Don’t try to visit all the ancient towns in one day—spend half a day each in Tongli, Zhenze, and Lili for a comfortable experience. If driving, parking in Tongli on weekends is nearly impossible after 2 PM, so arriving early is key. Don’t rush to take the tricycle at the scenic spot entrance—check the estimated fare on Ctrip first to avoid being tricked by “free guided rides.” 🍜 Local delicacies​ 🦐 Walk around Tongli nibbling on sock-bottom crisp, which is crispy and sweet. In Zhenze, black dried tofu and Dingsheng cake are freshest from old street shops. Lili’s fried glutinous rice balls are crispy outside and sticky inside. A box of spicy feet costs 20 yuan; paired with a soda, it’s the perfect afternoon treat 🥤. Restaurants on the main street are generally 10% more expensive. Walk two alleys in for grandma’s home cooking, which saves quite a bit per person. Don’t buy souvenirs at the first shop on the main street—residential areas are about 30% cheaper. ⚠️ Pitfall guide​ 🚫 Tongli combo tickets are valid only on the day of purchase—don’t buy them a day early. Boat rides are charged per boat and can be shared by 4 people. Confirm the route and price before boarding. August is not crab season, so don’t order hairy crabs by Taihu Lake—just try the “June yellow” crabs. Black dried tofu and silk products sold as “100 yuan silk quilts” in scenic areas are usually scams; go to local old workshops instead. Afternoon thunderstorms come suddenly. Taihu lakeside trails and boat tours will close temporarily during storms. Avoid wandering outdoors at noon. Only swim in official water areas; never enter wild rivers or unknown waters 🛟. 🏮 Must-visit attractions​ 📸 Tongli Ancient Town ticket is 80 yuan, and the night session at Tuisi Garden is 50 yuan. The best time to enter the town is before 5 PM. The narrow Zhongxin Alley is so tight it fits only one person sideways—perfect for photos 📷. Zhenze Ancient Town combo ticket is 42 yuan. The Ciyun Temple pagoda, Shijian Hall, and Yuji Bridge represent a pagoda, a street, and a hall, showcasing rich sericulture culture. It’s quieter than Tongli. Families can visit Suzhou Bay Dream Water World—adult tickets are 98 yuan, and a family ticket for 2 adults and 1 child is 398 yuan. For hot springs, check out Suzhou Bay Wangyan Hot Spring—adult tickets are 168 yuan, and double tickets are 318 yuan. Dong Taihu Ecotourism Resort is free. Ride along the 28-km lakeshore to watch the sunset—a local secret summer spot 🌅. August in Wujiang brings wave after wave of heat. Before traveling, check scenic spot openings and weather alerts on Ctrip. Avoid noon by exploring ancient towns early or late and resting in air-conditioned spaces in the afternoon—that’s the right way to enjoy your trip 💡.

The Longest Bridge in Jiangnan ~ Chuihong Bridge Chuihong Bridge was originally built in the eighth year of the Qingli era of the Northern Song Dynasty (1048), spanning the Wusong River and near the Grand Canal. It was constructed over a wide river surface, majestic in scale. Having been destroyed and rebuilt several times, it once had as many as 99 arches and was known as "the longest bridge in Jiangnan." It is praised as "except for Yueyang Tower, there is no such scenery in the world." More than 300 literati and scholars left over 400 poems praising Chuihong. The bridge is not only a historic structure but also a gathering place for poets and scholars, as well as a site for welcoming and sending off travelers. It was a key node on the important waterways of the Wusong River and the Grand Canal, witnessing the prosperity and changes of the canal throughout history. Behind the construction of the bridge lies a beautiful story. In the seventh year of the Qingli era (1047), Li Wen, the county magistrate of Wujiang, faced a dilemma when the court suddenly halted the construction of new official schools nationwide, leaving the 100,000 taels of silver collected by the people for building a temple school unused. At that time, the Wusong River separated the northern and southern cities, and people relied solely on ferries to cross. Frequent tragedies occurred when boats were destroyed and people drowned during strong winds and high waves. Li Wen decisively used the money to build a bridge at the mouth of the Wusong River. The following year, the bridge was completed and named "Liwang Bridge," meaning beneficial for the people's travel, but locals called it the "Long Bridge." The bridge faced Taihu Lake, spanned the Wusong River, curved like a crescent moon, and was as long as a hanging rainbow, hence the name "Chuihong Bridge." At the center of the bridge stands a pavilion also named "Chuihong." In the seventh year of the Xining era (1074) of the Northern Song, the famous writer Su Shi, along with Yang Yuansu, Chen Lingju, Zhang Ziye, Li Gongze, Liu Xiaoshu, and others, toured Chuihong Bridge. At midnight, under the moonlight, they drank wine in the Chuihong Pavilion and composed poetry, creating a celebrated story. During the Zhenghe era (1111-1118) of the Northern Song, the young Wang Ximeng painted the "A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains" under Emperor Huizong’s guidance. Experts believe the cross-shaped pavilion and long bridge spanning the river in the painting were modeled after Chuihong Bridge. In the second year of Shaoxi (1191) of the Southern Song, poet Jiang Kui returned home with a singing girl and passed Chuihong Bridge, leaving the famous poem "Passing Chuihong": "My new lyrics are the most charming, Little Red sings softly as I play the flute. After the song ends, I pass through Songling Road, Looking back at the misty waves of the Fourteen Bridges." The Northern Song calligrapher Mi Fu left the famous verse: "I like to send new poems to Sangzhu, Chuihong’s autumn colors fill the southeast." In the Ming Dynasty, Tang Yin gathered famous scholars Shen Zhou, Zhu Yunming, Wen Zhengming, and others to hold a farewell banquet by Chuihong Bridge for his friend Dai Zhao. Tang Yin painted "Chuihong Farewell," depicting distant mountains like dark eyebrows, slanting trees, and boats under the bridge. Chuihong Bridge witnessed joyful reunions among friends and conveyed deep feelings of farewell and wishes for the future. Chuihong Broken Bridge, originally named Chuihong Bridge and initially called Liwang Bridge, is commonly known as the Long Bridge. It was first built in the eighth year of Qingli (1048) as a stone pier and wooden bridge. In the second year of Tai Ding of the Yuan Dynasty (1325), it was rebuilt as a stone arch bridge with 62 arches (some records say 72 or 64). It has undergone multiple repairs over the generations. The bridge’s center pavilion is named "Chuihong," and two pavilions named "Huize" and "Diding" stand at both ends, each guarded by a pair of stone lions. In 1957, it was listed as a cultural relic protection unit of Jiangsu Province. In May 1967, most of it collapsed, and the remaining ruins were listed as a cultural relic protection unit of Wujiang County in 1986. In 1996 and 2005, the Wujiang City government repaired 17 arches on the west and east ends (several arches and bridge piers on the west end remain buried underground). In June 2006, it was announced as a cultural relic protection unit of Jiangsu Province, and in October 2019, it was designated as a national key cultural relic protection unit.
