- Tiger Hill - Also known as Surging Sea Hill, this hill stands at 36 meters (118 feet) tall. As you ascend, you’ll encounter numerous historical sites, some dating back over 2,500 years to the founding of Suzhou. The most captivating feature is the Tiger Hill Pagoda, or Pagoda of Yunyang Temple, renowned for its leaning structure. Thousands of stunning bonsai trees are showcased here, offering miniature versions of full-sized gardens that highlight the skill and artistry of Chinese master gardeners passed down through generations. Despite its modest size, the hill boasts a rich history.
- Shantang Street - This ancient street, with a history spanning over a thousand years, is lined with historic buildings such as memorial archways, ancestral temples, and guild halls, alongside modern establishments like souvenir shops, tea houses, and restaurants. The street showcases the prosperity of both historical and contemporary Suzhou, particularly in the southeast section known as old Shangtang Street, which features various artifact stores and local snacks. Additionally, the large ancient architectural complex, Yuhan Hall, the former residence of a Ming Dynasty official, can be seen here. A river cruise, enjoying the historic buildings, is a unique nighttime activity in Suzhou.
- Master-of-Nets Garden - This garden is a quintessential example of mansion gardens in Suzhou and served as a typical residence for officials during the Qing Dynasty. It demonstrates exceptional gardening skills by creating breathtaking scenery within a confined space through the strategic placement of bridges, brooks, pavilions, and buildings. Besides admiring the intricate layout, visitors can enjoy local opera performances during certain periods when the garden opens at night. The garden’s architectural brilliance and the serene and harmonious atmosphere it exudes make it a top attraction among Suzhou gardens.
- Suzhou - Renowned for its silk, Suzhou is the most famous location for traditional Chinese silk. The Suzhou First Silk Factory offers an exhibition on the history of silk and demonstrates the entire silk production process.
