Great walk up 7000 steps. It got busy at the top, with lots of people huffing and puffing up the steep bit. Well worth a visit. Weekends and good days make it get very busy. So be grateful at the top when it gets steep and you too are huffing and puffing, whilst trying to impress your partner with your stamina, strength and fitness🤣

During my recent trip to China, I had the opportunity to visit Taishan Mountain, one of the tallest and most significant mountains in the country. The journey to the top was both challenging and exhilarating. I started my ascent in the early hours of the morning, determined to reach the summit in time to witness the sunrise. The climb was steep and demanding, but the anticipation of the view kept me going. As I reached the peak, I was greeted with the most breathtaking view I have ever seen. The sun slowly rose over the horizon, casting a golden glow over the landscape. The sky was painted with vibrant hues of orange and pink, and the entire scene felt almost surreal. It was a moment of pure tranquility and awe. In addition to the stunning sunrise, Taishan Mountain is rich in cultural and historical significance. The pathways are lined with ancient inscriptions and temples, each telling a story of the mountain's past. I took my time exploring these sites, immersing myself in the history and spirituality of the place. Overall, my visit to Taishan Mountain was an unforgettable experience. The combination of natural beauty, physical challenge, and cultural richness made it a truly unique adventure. I highly recommend anyone traveling to China to include Taishan Mountain in their itinerary. Witnessing the sunrise from the summit is a memory that will stay with you forever.

A beautiful and challenging Taishan to hike either with your foot or a hybrid mode of using available cable cars/bus.

This breathtaking shot captures a panoramic view from Mount Tai (Tai Shan), one of China's Five Great Mountains and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The scene is steeped in cultural, spiritual, and natural beauty.

Mount Taishan is one of the five Sacred mountains in China. It is situated in Tai’an city, Shandong Province. It is worth to mention that this mount is in the UNESCO world heritage sites. This is one of the most climbed mountains. The legend says that all Kings of China have had climbed this mountain and prayed for the success to the God. The best time for climbing us Summer and spring. If you want to have a nice scenery, then avoid to climb the mount in winter and Autumn. During my first climbing I could see the mountain and the city all in fog which doesn’t happen often as the locals say and only the luckiest people can be witnesses of this beauty. Another best time to visit the mountain is any night in summer because in the morning you will find an amazing sunset view if the weather is nice and not rainy. You can climb by foot which will take about 4 hours if you take a bus to the starting point. You might also take a cable car to the top which is not operating at night. In case of climbing at night be ready to experience cold on the top. Prepare tent where you can sleep and have jackets with you.

one of my great experience for visiting China, and challenged myself from the flights of stairs to see the sun rising. When you are up there, remember to rent the coat and return back at the peak of the mountain, don't bring it down like me... it was HELL.

Great experience! The weather was very cold but it was great because walking up all those steps got me sweating! There were some temples at the top and lots of nice snacks to buy on the way up!

Beautiful historic garden and apparently one of the 4 largest in south of china (source -my wife). Unique experience walking through the residence and meticulously kept garden areas.

Amazing chinese southern style garden. It has so many details of nature and buildings. Also the interior of ancient house is something to watch

Amazing chinese southern style garden, the guide was very knowledgeable.

Ge Garden is an amazing treasure in the heart of a historical city. To understand the Chinese culture and language is to understand almost everything you see here. Understanding the gardens is a major component of this. I recommend a guide. The 4 hills and the bamboo variety is one of a kind.

Decently interesting garden/park with some cool history and architecture from the Ming Dynasty. It's super pretty with different types of bamboo and flowers everywhere, but very crowded in the summer (especially). Known for it's Four Seasons Mountains, which are big rockery builds in each of the corners of the garden which mirror the four seasons.

Beautiful and crowded

Very beautiful old family garden,rich salt business family in long times,but now is a tourist place for government-owned.

A nice traditional Chinese traditional architecture where you see how they used to live in the past, it's a nice place to go to spend an hour or two.

some while ago we planned a garden design tour in this Chinese architecture heritage, and we couldn't finish our agenda. this place was not so big but full of details in every corner (though some details were remodelled). the space planning was marvellous, with delicate attention on the relationship between nature, landscape, and architecture features. some narrow spaces between buildings were particularly fascinating, they were meticulously crafted too ! please do some homework and plan more time !

It's one of my favorite park in Yangzhou. Be sure to hire a guide. The story of He family is more impressive than garden itself

Beautiful and elegant

Excellent Chinese garden.

Hu yuan is a perfect place....

Loved this place 😍

Lots of things to do. It could be a disappointment for people under 1.4 meters who want to ride the roller coasters.

Large park with lots of attractions. Good for kids and adults.

Huge place with a lot of fun!

Don't buy anything from the stores around there, it's probably fake, I was at the nike store and was just about to pay then I looked at the shoe and thought it looked a bit weird, so I googled nike stores near me and there were no stores near me, so I asked the staff if it was real and it wasn't. When I went to adidas, they said it was real but obviously it was all fake.

Best place to have fun

Perfect place for kids, and parents can enjoy too. Except for the entrance fee, 210 CNY, I have nothing to complain.

Biggest park in Changzou. Tiannnig temple is near by.

Very beautiful place and people

(Translated by Google) Free park. I have been playing here since I was a child, and now I am bringing my daughter here to play. Very quiet and a great place to relax. (Original) 免费的公园。从小就在这里玩，现在带自己的女儿来玩。很幽静，放松的好地方。

Tianning Temple (天寧寺) is an important building in Jiangsu Province. It attracts visitor for the majestic structure and long history building: 1. The structure feature: this 13-storey octagon shaped temple is 153.7 meter height, which is the highest pagoda in China and in the world. There is an elevator for visitor to the top floor. You have to prepare the money. 2. The history feature: There are about 500 Arhat (羅漢) statues embedded in the both sides of the wall. The artistic level is very high and rare, which is seen as the treasure of the temple. I recommend visitor can go to the Hongmei Park (紅梅公園) after temple trip. You can stroll in this beautiful park and discover different view for the Tianning Temple.

Tianning Temple in Shanghai is a truly sacred and peaceful place filled with positive energy. The moment you step inside, you can feel a deep sense of calm and spiritual connection. The temple’s architecture and chanting create a serene atmosphere for prayer and reflection. It’s a wonderful place to offer incense, meditate, and experience the compassion and blessings of the Buddhas. A meaningful destination for anyone seeking peace of mind and spiritual growth.

Although it is newly rebuilt in 2007, still quite worth a visit. Spectacular view from the top.

Great experience of a Buddhist temple. total cost was 80 RMB, 20 at the gate, and 60 to go up to the tower.

1000 year old Buddist Temple is a must see..take you Google translate photo option to translate the documents..pretty awesome!!!

Well maintained infrastructure and amazing facilities

Lovely place to take pics and there is an elevator in the pagoda. The park outside the temple is also nice to visit, take pics of the pagoda and go on a boat ride before 4:00pm.

One of the most amazing place to visit if you want to experience the feels of ancient China. The place has been preserved for over 800 years and it is well regularly maintained so the place still looks amazing to this day. It is good to visit during the day but it is when night comes that the place comes alive and instantly transport you to ancient China. There are lots of store to keep you occupied so better save some space in your luggage for souvenirs.

A huge garden with a lake and many tourist heritage attractions. Many food restaurants and souvenirs too. I come in rainy season, so cannot enjoy the garden maximally. But if come at spring or summer, the place should be very greenery and peacefully for our mind. A lot of place we can sit and relax and watch the scenery. Not too much direction boards so sometimes quite difficult to find the way.

Beautiful gardens and Chinese architecture. A visit to this site will give you a real feel of the ancient traditions of China. The gardens are green in winter. But the full colours of the flowers will be experienced in spring and summer. In winter one should be prepared for temperature's of less than zero even on a sunny day

A good place for a day trip via train and metro from Shanghai. But be prepared for crowds.

I was absolutely blown away by this place. Amazing ancient architecture, plenty tea gardens, flower gardens and places you can sit and enjoy a meal. You can walk around, rent a boat or get a cable car. I love the quaint library for its souvenir ideas. It's full of stunning history. I picked up a pair of handmade shoes among other things. Theres's a little courtyard with stone water tubs where tourists and locals toss in a coin in exchange for happiness. At least this is what I was told! Of course I chucked in a few coins.

The long walk and climate was awesome. Nice shops for souvenirs. Must visit in Wuxi

One of the Best old towns ive been to as its more Rural comapred to the Old towns in Cities such as suzhou or nanjing where its rather overun with modern stores etc. the Old Architecture is still very strong and the maintaining they have done to enhance it is amzing. Great place for photgraphers and nature garden lovers. Theres a Cable Cart towards the far end of the Park, with tour Carts available Also to take you up the hills and slopes around. Must Visit in the Jiangsu Province as a whole!

(Translated by Google) The scenery is beautiful (Original) 景色很美

Very nice place to walk around and there are plenty of food stalls and you will be spoilt for choices!

A bizarre experience. First, you were greeted with an army of “Dama”（大媽 / aunties）on a stage competing for a sponsored dance competition near the temple entrance. The music was, uh, deafening. Then you would bump into monks paying attention to their mobile phones and locals smoking inside the temple area. There was also a shopping corridor located next to the Temple, littered with run-down shops and stalls selling antiques, as well as vintage comic books and Mao badges from the 60s and 70s of the last centuries. If you were into architecture of centuries-old buildings with an authentic Zen vibe, I am not sure this is the place you are looking for. Free admission though.

Wonderful place with lots of beautiful structures. Plenty of shops all around the vicinity. There is also a boat ride for all to enjoy.

Nice shopping experience nearby.

Good

(Translated by Google) Really cool place – a temple by day, bustling with life at night. Lights everywhere, music, people dancing in the middle of the street. Top-notch street food: grilled skewers, sweet dumplings, fresh juice. I only wanted to take a quick look, but ended up staying forever. Nanchan Temple at night? A must-see in Wuxi! (Original) Richtig cooler Ort – tagsüber Tempel, abends alles voller Leben. Überall Lichter, Musik, Leute tanzen mitten auf der Straße. Streetfood top: gegrillte Spieße, süße Teigtaschen, frischer Saft. Ich wollte nur kurz schauen, bin ewig geblieben. Nanchan-Tempel bei Nacht? Pflichtprogramm in Wuxi!

(Translated by Google) The four hundred and eighty temples of the Southern Dynasties are now just a dream! (Original) 南朝四百八十寺，今日都付一夢中！

Good place for rest.

I was there more than 7 years ago but can still remember it well. Beautiful and serene place. Yes a lot of stairs but worth the climbs. Highly fecommended.

This place was nice to see for me and friend. A lot of stairs to go :-) Thanks to our personal guide! Greetings from Germany

Beautiful view in the night on temple lights from the Yangtze River

Nice place to visit when you are in Nantong

Nice place......

(Translated by Google) A great place. There you can see almost everything related to Buddhism. You can get up to the temple either by cable car or on foot via many stairs. The temple at the top of the mountain is very beautiful and interesting. From the top you have a great panoramic view of the whole of Nantong. (Original) Ein toller Ort. Dort gibt es fast alles um den Buddhismus herum zu sehen. Rauf zum Tempel kommt man entweder mit der Seilbahn oder zu Fuß über viele Treppen. Der Tempel oben auf dem Berg ist sehr schön und interessant. Von oben hat man einen tollen Rundblick über ganz Nantong.

It was a great experience, the botanical garden and the great view made the visit very magical. One of the best places I have visited up until now.

A must visit place in old Suzhou city. The park is pretty big, with lots of gardens and attractions placed all around. It cost only 70 yuan to enter the Tiger Hill area. The leaning tower of Suzhou is just as cool as the tower of Pisa.

Tiger Hill is one of Suzhou’s oldest historical sites, with over 2,500 years of history. Legend says that after King Helü was buried here, a white tiger appeared and guarded his tomb for three days, giving the hill its name. At the heart of the lush, peaceful complex stands the Huqiu Pagoda, a thousand-year-old tower from the Northern Song Dynasty, famously leaning about 2.3 degrees—often called the “Leaning Tower of China.” This seven-story pagoda, rising through the trees, perfectly blends ancient architecture, legends, and the timeless atmosphere that makes Suzhou so unique.

Came especially to see cherry blossoms. It does not fail! So beautiful, abeit crowded. Entrance fee rmb60. Could spend 1 to 2 hours. The leaning Pagoda was quite interesting but not allowed to enter as it's seems unsafe. One of the nicer gardens to visit in Suzhou.

Beautiful park area with traditional monuments. I enjoyed walking around and having a tea somewhere in the middle of the park. Most beautiful was the garden close to exit with ponds.

Went here on june. Super hot but worth it, it was beautiful and the pagoda looks aesthetically pleasing

This place have less tourists so you can enjoy your walk

Stunning architectural and artwork in a single venue. Has a bit of similarities to Miho Museum, which was also by I.M. Pei. It's really crowded even on a weekday. Plan a week prior and register before going.

A Must-Visit Cultural Gem in Suzhou. Visited Suzhou Museum and was genuinely impressed! The museum beautifully blends modern minimalist architecture with traditional Chinese elements. It’s not just a museum, it’s a visual and cultural experience. The exhibits showcase Suzhou’s rich history, including intricate jade carvings, ancient calligraphy, and Ming/Qing dynasty relics. The flow of the layout makes it easy to navigate even for first-timers. The architecture and interior design are photogenic from every angle, definitely a must-visit photo spot. The tranquil garden inside offers a peaceful escape and is very “zen”, perfect to just sit and relax. It’s FREE to enter, but you may need to book a slot online a week before via WeChat app. I’d recommend coming early to avoid the crowd and to enjoy the calmness of the space. The crowd control could be better during weekends, and the museum café was a bit underwhelming. Still, Suzhou Museum is totally worth a visit if you're in town, especially for those who enjoy culture, design, and photography. You can combine your visit with nearby Humble Administrator's Garden where both are within walking distance!

I was attracted to The Suzhou Museum, because it was designed by the celebrated Chinese-American architect I.M. Pei (a native of Suzhou). The museum is more than just a repository of historical artifacts—it is a stunning work of art that seamlessly marries modernist architectural principles with the soul of classical Chinese gardens. It is an immersive experience where i find the building itself is as captivating as the collections. What immediately strikes me is the brilliant use of the local Jiangnan vernacular: white walls, dark gray roofs, and an intimate relationship with water and rock. Pei translated these traditional elements into a contemporary language of stark white stucco and geometrical gray granite tiles. The result is pure visual poetry. Inside, the use of natural light is masterful, creating a contemplative atmosphere that highlights the exquisite collection of paintings, calligraphy, porcelain, and jade. Though the collections are wonderful—showcasing the rich history of the Wu region—it is the architecture that truly preserves the "touch of ancient China" while feeling utterly joyful, modern and fresh. During my visiting in mid-September it offered a quiet moment to appreciate this tranquillity, as I appreciate this piece of a true testament to the timeless elegance of Chinese aesthetics.

So hard to get tickets for this museum. You have to pre-book via their Mini Prog, opens 7 days prior at 8am. Tickets are snapped up in a few minutes! I tried for 19 Aug initially but didn't get it, made the mistake of not setting up my profile in advance so by the time I created my profile, the tickets are all gone. Learnt my mistake and managed to secure a ticket for 24 Aug morning. The entrance is conveniently located at Metro Line 6, Exit 2. Here, you can only enter during your ticket time slot, 11am to 12nn in my case. Got an audio guide for ¥30 (one of the last few as they have limited pieces). The main exhibit is just a small section on the 1st floor while there are other special exhibits within the building at additional cost. This is the most scenic museum I've been to in China. Truly 园林中的博物馆, very Suzhou. The exhibits however are nothing outstanding, perhaps just the 苏绣 section, a heritage, skillful, unique embroidery style founded here. The building itself is the highlight here. This is the work of the famous architect, 贝聿铭, the same man behind the glass pyramid of the Louvre Museum in Paris. The hexagonal windows throughout create such beautiful photos effortlessly. The outdoor garden area is where most gather and probably spent more time than in the museum itself. The route ends at the 太平天国忠王府. From the exit, one can walk to the Humble Administrator Garden and/or Ping Jiang Road. Overall, a good 2.5 hrs spent here. Not much in terms of artefacts but still worth a visit to see the beauty of this museum.

The museum itself is an masterpiece, which is designed by I.M. Pei, the world famous designer that also designed the crystal pyramid for the Louvre. Over 40,000 artifacts with over 250 national first-class relics should keep you busy for at least 2 hours. Purchase your ticket beforehand

A must! A must! The ancient Chinese art, paintings, calligraphy and handmade crafts in Suzhou, Jiangsu. The museum was designed by renowned architect I.M. Pei

Have to book the place in advance else there will be no entry allow. Amazing place that summarised the main highlights the architecture of gardens in Suzhou. There are free official tour guide (free of charge) in once we enter, good to follow if it is your first visit. She gave comprehensive explanations of the main attraction of the museum.

As one of the four great gardens of Suzhou, the Humble Administrator’s Garden truly showcases exquisite landscape design. Its pavilions, towers, water features, and architectural details all reflect the beauty of classical elegance. Visiting here offers an experience of the refined Jiangnan-style architecture, garden layout, and landscaping. The overall atmosphere is poetic and picturesque, making one feel completely immersed in its aesthetic charm. Even on hot and crowded days, taking the time to appreciate the surroundings allows one to sense the classical spirit and millennia of cultural heritage. It is well worth exploring. Standing before ancient calligraphy, paintings, or thousand-year-old structures, one can almost imagine scholars of the past composing poetry and couplets in this very environment, reflecting on the future. The trip is both moving and inspiring, and I highly recommend it. This is my travel review of the Humble Administrator’s Garden.

The Humble Administrator's Garden (Zhuozheng Yuan) 拙政園 is a renowned classical Chinese garden located in Suzhou, China. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and considered one of the finest and largest gardens in all of southern China. The garden is a masterpiece of Ming Dynasty landscape design, known for its elegant water features, winding paths, and traditional architecture that creates a serene and picturesque environment. It is primarily designed around water, with a maze of connected pools, islands, pavilions, and bridges. The design is meant to create the effect of a wild, natural landscape within a city setting. The garden was originally built in 1509 by Wang Xianchen 王顯辰 a frustrated imperial censor who retired to a simple life of gardening after his official career. He named it the "Humble Administrator's Garden" to reflect his quiet, simple aspirations. Over the centuries, the garden changed hands many times and was divided into separate private estates. It served various purposes, including a government office and a prince's residence during the Taiping Rebellion. The current appearance of the garden largely reflects the late Qing Dynasty style, and the three main sections were finally reunited by the Chinese government in 1949 and subsequently opened to the public.

One of the 4 amazing gardens in Suzhou. This is a famous unesco heritage site with amazing gardens and architecture. A guide would be recommended for you to understand the history of the buildings. Avoid the weekends as it can get really crowded and do expect traffic jams in your car ride there. Highly recommend !

An absolute masterpiece and the pinnacle of Chinese classical garden design. It's vast, serene, and incredibly beautiful, with a harmonious layout of ponds, pavilions, bridges, and rockeries. It can get crowded, but its status as a UNESCO World Heritage site is well-deserved. Go early to enjoy its tranquility.

I find park and historical places more fascinating after dark so if you are into that then book a night tour from the west gate which starts around 7:30. It was slow paced and a fun experience (by fun i mean if you enjoy silence, sounds of insects after dark and warm lights) There is a short opera styled musical with a light show (8/10) The guide was friendly and spoke enough english to enquire deeply about the history and significance of the space.

This is right in the centre of the city. You can take line 6 to the stop named after the garden and the Suzhou Museum. Be careful — as you emerge from the metro, the first long queue is likely for the museum. You need to walk further down the alley and find the Ticket Office, where, to my surprise, they took cards, even foreign ones. This garden isn’t very big, and so it easily gets overcrowded during the weekends and especially during the summer holidays (even on weekdays). The garden itself loses novelty if you have seen Liu Yuan (Lingering Garden), which feels less crowded and hence more relaxed. My four star review could have been 5 had the environment been more relaxed like a Suzhou garden, and had I not seen Lingering Garden. But this is still a very fine specimen.

Suzhou has many decorated gardens. The Humble administrators is one the most beautiful ones. Best visit during the week to avoid being stuck in the crowd. There are small souvenir shops inside.

We came here around 6pm, no one asked for the tickets. Good place to spend some time. Many ancient structures are present here. Ladies are wearing ancient dress and make up and doing photography adding some ancient vibes. KFC and McDonald is also there.

Beautiful water town, not crowded at all in August! It’s better to stay one night inside the scenic area to really appreciate it.

Extraordinary location near Suzhou. The town is very alive, with many stalls, markets and shops ensuring a vibrant environment. The many bridges connecting the sides of the town are stunning works of fine stone masonry. One could only imagine how it would have been in the 19th century. Truly deserving of the title, “Venice of the East”.

The most beautiful place in the world ❤️❤️❤️ Classical gardens are 2000 years old! Live pictures! And the windows on the walls are their frames! So much beauty in every millimeter! Very shocking place! I wanted to die there and stay forever!!! I felt happiness, and all my senses were overflowing with impressions! Something that I wish every person to see in their lifetime - this is the ancient city of Tongli ❤️❤️❤️

Lots of walking, sorry to said not much things worth buying & the cafe we visited are so pricey. And need to pay RMB100 per person to enter the town.

Visited in Apr. This is the perfect relaxing water town to explore leisurely - beautiful, serene, retains a sense of authenticity, lively yet not overwhelmingly crowded (unlike Suzhou’s famous waterside streets which are so crowded it’s impossible to enjoy). Tongli Town is compact and extremely conducive for exploration on foot. Allocated a full day for day trip from Shanghai. Explore and soak in the atmosphere leisurely (rather than squeezing in whirlwind stop) especially for families with small kids. Took an excellent boat ride, explored a old buildings/gardens, the famous bridges and take a simple but relaxing, pleasant lunch stop at one of the canal side restaurants to sample local cuisine and chat with friendly locals. Lots of quaint coffee shops around town. Ticket buying at tourist centre was quick and hassle free (free for seniors and kids below 1.4m) - tickets for accessing buildings / gardens. 25 min boat ride recommended - clean, well maintained boats, relaxing and nice way to see the town.

Rmb150 per boat. Nice view. Do not let her sing for you. Its RMB 20 per song. She will sing 5.

All stars for nature. Staying in Shanghai for a long time could be oppressing. This Park could be an ideal escape from the city. You can easily use public bus with that cost only 22 RMB (have yet to count your transportation fee to the main bus station). If you are students, remember to bring student cards (even if you are from non-Chinese universities, they just check the graduation dates). The entrance tickets for students are 30 RMB (prettt affordanle for efforts to plan more trees!) Bike renting process annoys us a lot. My friend and I are both foreigner. We only have alipay as a payment method. Eventhough the banner does show accepting alipay. Staff said they only accept Wechat pay. We could not do that as we don’t have Chinese accounts. If we want to use Alipay, we have to deposit 200 RMB for each bike, which does not apply to people who pay with Wechat Pay. Anyways, we decided to walk cause we kinda felt weird. Exploring the park by walking turns out pretty good; we will stopped by places a bit more easily. Walking and exploring half of the park takes us around 1 hour and a half. If you bike, you can go around the park in 1 hour (that what the staff said, but probably you will not see the nitty gritty). Enjoy your trip! Cheers!

I like this place, nice views, you can ride bikes. There also RV camp, you can easily book RV for yourself or family, and you can even do BBQ here. There some entertainment here for example bump cars, horse riding and other... It's a good place to visit in Shanghai, make sure to check weather report before go there ;)

A huge area of artificial forest. Decorated by creeks and ponds. Good camping and bicycling place.

Thoroughly enjoyed the visit and I would highly recommend that you rent a bicycle or tandem with a friend. Cycling through the lush greenery it's very pleasurable. As is stopping at the major attractions for photo-taking. There are diverse activities you can participate in - flying fox, campervans, etc. Best to check in with the Park for more info. Otherwise, a day trip would suffice.

(Translated by Google) The air is very good, and you can take a small train to travel around. You can also camp in the barbecue area. There are special camping RVs, but unfortunately they are all booked... (Original) 空气很好，坐小火车可以一路逛。也可以在烧烤区露营，有专门的露营房车，可惜都订光了...

(Translated by Google) It was so cool to ride a bike around the park! (Original) 骑自行车绕公园一周实在是太棒了！

(Translated by Google) Take a walk on the weekend and get away from the hustle and bustle. (Original) 周末散散步，远离喧嚣。

Great place to visit if you are in the area. Gives you a glimpse of what China used to look like prior to the ongoing "modernization". More preservation efforts of the old world should be made.

Just a small place to visit for the afternoon 😊 nothing too fancy

Good

Old City, good views

(Translated by Google) I found Qiandeng really beautiful, even though it doesn't take long to see the old town. It was raining when I was there, so there was basically nothing going on. But I think it's a nice stopover if you're in the Shanghai/Suzhou area (Original) ich fand Qiandeng echt schön, auch wenn man echt nicht lange braucht bis man die Altstadt gesehen hat. Es hatte geregnet als ich da war, da war dann auch quasi gar nichts los. Aber ich finde es ist ein hübscher Zwischenstopp wenn man sich im Raum Shanghai/Suzhou aufhält

(Translated by Google) Qiandeng Ancient Town, Kunshan City, Suzhou City, is a free attraction. There is Qiandeng Ancient Temple, which costs 10 yuan to enter, but it is worth visiting. It is full of beautiful pagodas and forest of text monuments, as well as Jiangnan courtyards, which still have the style of elegant people. All buildings are typical Jiangnan style built along the river, with small bridges and flowing water. . It is a very distinctive Jiangnan style place, with antique charm, small bridges and flowing water, beautiful ancient buildings and many people. The scenery is even more beautiful in the evening. The reflection in the water is beautiful on a rainy day. (Original) 苏州市昆山市千灯古镇,是免费的景点裡面有千燈古廟需門票10元但值得一入滿漂亮的塔及文字碑林,還有江南庭院造型,不失風雅之士風範，所有的建筑是典型的江南风格沿江而建,小橋流水人家。。很有特色江南风格地方，古色古香，小桥流水，古建筑很美人真的好多。傍晚景色更美。下雨天水中倒影很美。

(Translated by Google) Very comfortable walking environment, well planned (Original) 很舒服的步行環境，規劃得不錯

Amazing place

An exceptional experience at the Shanghai Audi International Circuit. The track is world-class, perfectly built for Formula 1, offering both thrilling racing action and an outstanding spectator experience. The organization was seamless, with clear signage, efficient entry, and easy access to various viewing areas.

tour was very nice and went to paddock, grandstands, briefing room etc. One thing missing is a track tour, like Daytona they should have trams that take you for a roundabout, but since they're resurfacing the track now maybe they will in the future. They also need to have an open merch store, and consistent schedules for tours and gokart track, which was supposed to open but never did. The AC was not on and inside it was sweltering and completely deserted with no resteraunt or anything open which is a missed opportunity. Overall it's a great and cheap way to see f1 track, but they need to capitalize on customer needs more.

Shanghai International Circuit for F1 race event. Consider taking the metro - “Shanghai Circuit” subway station on Line 11 as traffic to the circuit is narrow (1 way in and out) and very congested during these large events.

Very well built F1 track with huge grand stand and lots of facilities. If budget is a factor the best seats are at the K stand hairpin curve. I'd give it 5 stars if those were not occupied by the F1 race in Singapore.

Amazing place to enjoy the extreme speed of F1 racing car. You will have the most lively experience with the engine smoke smell, the noise and the wind. Enjoy the race!

Got the chance to come here for a VIP race in late 2016 and it was awesome. Got to head down to track level and eat some food with the racers. Wicked time. Headed up to the stands to see the beginning of the race and then when it started raining, headed inside to get warm. Awesome event!

Excellent views of most of the circuit, that itself provides plenty of on track action. My only gripe would be some escalators to at least get up a few levels of the very high grandstand, and some better food options, and maybe some beverage outlets in the grandstand itself (on a higher level)

A great place to visit when in Shanghai - tourist friendly. We booked a guide to take us before heading to the airport and they took care of everything- tickets, transport and most importantly explaining to us the many special places. Rows of stalls offering snacks (many local cuisines) and souvenirs (including many antique shops and cat/dog cafes) on each side of the river banks. The boat ride (Additional fee) was great to orientate on arrival.

It was a very old town but lots to see if you enjoy cultural stuff. With the clear blue skies, you will be able to capture awesome pictures with the boat and water. A cafe is there too for you to cool down but it is quite expensive. Overall it is quite an experience 😀😀😀👍👍👍

If you do not have time to visit Suzhou or Hangzhou, here is a great place to see the ancient town built along the intricate waterways. Shops are mostly the same as what you could find in a typical Chinese ancient town selling more or less the same items, so I would instead spend more time reading up the history behind the town. This is accessible from Shanghai city using Metro line 17. However, the journey could take roughly 1.5hr. So do plan your time and take into consideration the long travel time Visited on 2 January 2025, Thursday. No tickets required, free entry.

The Zhujiajiao Ancient Water Town is an important tourist destination, about one hour drive from Shanghai city. The Town was established nearly 1700 years ago, famous for stone bridges, waterways and Ming and Qing dynasty architecture. It's also called The "Venice of Shanghai". Its very enjoyable to spend time there, walking along the waterways, taking a boat cruise or relaxing with a cup of tea. Other places to visit is the landmark Kenzi garden established in 1912. It has a main hall, a garden, and an artificial hill. Fangsheng Bridge is another attraction, best among the 36 ancient stone bridges, It was built in 1812 and supposed to be the largest stone arch bridge in Shanghai. The Zhujiajiao Ancient Water Town is so beautiful that one can easily spend an entire day there, but a minimum of three hours is needed to see it.

Review for Zhujiajiao ancient Water Town. To reach there you can take subway from Shanghai Hongqiao subway station. "Wonderful place! Zhujiajiao Water Town is incredibly well-preserved, with its ancient charm still intact. You'll love strolling along the canals, crossing the many bridges, and taking in the historic architecture. The old houses on the canal banks have been beautifully transformed into restaurants, shops, and local produce stores. A highlight is the ancient post office turned museum, where you can send letters to yourself or loved ones from special post boxes - they'll be mailed to you in a specific month of a future year of your choice! What a unique experience! Perfect for a relaxing day trip or a romantic getaway. Highly recommended!" 5/5 stars

(Translated by Google) A tourist destination in the suburbs, about 30 minutes away from where we were staying by taking two subway lines. There are fewer people than Yuiyuan, so you can enjoy it more slowly. There are places where you can wear folk costumes for a cheap price. Be careful not to get ripped off, but it is recommended for girls! Before arriving here, I walked for about 20 minutes from the station, and it was fun. (Original) 宿泊場所から、地下鉄を二個乗り継いで30分くらいの郊外の観光地。ユィーユエンより、人が少なくてゆっくりできます。 民俗衣装を安く着て撮影できるところがあります。 ぼったくりに注意ですが、女の子におすすめです！ ここにつく前も駅から徒歩で20分くらい歩いたのですが、それも楽しかったです。

This place encompasses the historical, ancient and water-town attractions in and around the city of Wuxi , located in the Jiangnan region . Recommend to visit at night time …colorful lighting the scenic grand canal. So many Chinese food stores for trying..yami 😋 good experience on the traditional boat along the canal then back by ancient car …immerse in the charm of Jiangnan. Easy to visit as it is in town .

On our way to Hangzhou we made a stopover and tour around Xitang Ancient Town. It was a long walk but very educational. There were a lot of local tourists and some who were having photoshoots in their traditional costumes. There were also food stalls along the way and a scenic boat ride for a fee. So many areas to take photos and sit. The place brings you back to old China. So beautiful! Toilets can be found nearby. The alleys have cobblestone path and a bit hard to walk on. We ended our walk at the South gate where we had lunch.

This place was wonderful! I spent 3 days staying in a very nice small hotel next to the water(about 30 usd a night). During the day you can walk around checking out the sights or stopping at a local coffee shop to relax. There's also restaurants and shopping you can do. At night you can also enjoy the night views or go enjoy the night life. They have several bars and night clubs if you are into that. Oh and they filmed Mission Impossible 3 here.. Cool!!

Romantic place indeed

My favorite city I visited in China. It is small and simple but full of history and fun. The food is amazing and you will not find another city that is as beautiful as this one. The rivers at sunset make the city glow.

Fantastic... definitely worth a visit
