 Walking through old Suzhou
 
 
As one of the key cities in the Yangtze River Delta, Suzhou is a renowned cultural, historic and tourist city, as well as top five most beautiful city districts in China" ,ranked by China National Geography Magazine. During the past 2500 yeas, the location of Suzhou city has never changed. Streets wind along the riverside; double chess-board structural system, waterside alleyways and narrow bridges formed the outlines of the city, with pagodas loom in the distance. Classical gardens, houses crouching across the rivers, make Suzhou an idyllic landscape painting.

To visit this ancient town, driving around is absolutely nice, however walking through is definitely more interesting. Let’s walk along the canal, touch the whitewashed walls, pass the ancient bridges, talk to the locals and follow the beautiful girl in silk costumes and with parasol.
