Here is the fantastic itinerary of day tour for American media friends who took bullet train this morning from Shanghai to Suzhou. I picked them up at 8:42 AM at Suzhou rail station and we went to visit Lingering Garden directly.

Lingering Garden is one of the most popular World Culture Herritages of Suzhou.  Traditional perfomance named Chasing Dream in Lingering Garden is happening from April to May.

Tiger Hill is the symbol of 2500-years-od Suzhou where many historical stories happened, but we enjoy it very much from other angles such as Bonsai and flowers rather than long history and rich culture.

Suzhou covers 42.5% water area. Don't miss taking the boat to experience unique local life style from Tiger Hill to Shangtang.

Suzhou local people don't eat anything within not right season, so we must taste traditional Suzhou food at Pine and Crane restaurant for our lunch at 12:30 PM.

We go to Doshan to witness how local people make Biluochun Tea this afternoon.

We are hurrying to visit Caving building in Dongshan.

It takes us almost an hour from Dongshan to downtown of old Suzhou. We are having our dinner at 6:30PM at Yangyang Dumpling Chinese restaurant.

We are enjoying traditional Chinese culture in Master of Nets Garden.  

We have to say goodbye at 9:10PM at Suzhou rail station.

Here are our group photos.
