Itinerary
Your guide and driver will pick you up at the railway station or your hotel in the central area of Suzhou City, and then transfer you to the first destination of your Suzhou day trip, the Humble Administrator's Garden, which is one of the four most famous classical gardens in China.
Then head for Suzhou Museum, to appreciate the elegant porcelains, jade wares, paintings and calligraphy, as well as the Suzhou-style colored drawing.
After that, you will be accompanied to take a hand-rowing boat along an old canal to Pingjiang Road. It is the best-preserved ancient block of Suzhou that still remains the appearance during the Tang and Song dynasties.
Continue to the Master of Nets Garden. It is not very large in scale but buildings inside are placed so thoughtful that it doesn't make the garden a cramped place.
This one-day Suzhou tour package will draw to an end once you finish visiting this classical garden. Your guide and driver will send you to your hotel in Suzhou or the train station for your leaving train.
