Not Dali's Erhai Lake! This is a metasequoia forest that 98% of Suzhou residents don't know about.

Changshu Shanghu Lake: A vast expanse of water and sky|||December 4, 2024, Changshu Shanghu Lake Shanghu Lake is named after Jiang Shang. According to legend, at the end of the Shang Dynasty, Jiang Ziya hid here to escape the tyranny of King Zhou and often fished in the lake. Jiang Ziya's name was Shang, so the lake was named Shanghu Lake. Shanghu Lake is a national 5A-level scenic area with seven islands, a dam running through the lake, and a 17-arch bridge. The islands are named after their unique features: Lotus Fragrance, Orange Fragrance, Peach Blossom, Maple Forest, Birds, Misty Rain, and Fishing. "Ten miles of calm waves, a blue autumn, a flat boat in the sunset," the small Jiangnan city of Changshu is blessed with the tranquility and vitality of water thanks to Shanghu Lake. Since poets have said, "Year after year by Shanghu Lake, walking the Yushan Mountain Road," how can you not visit Shanghu Lake in this beautiful autumn weather? Here are four recommended scenic spots in autumn: 1. Taigong Island, where Jiang Ziya and the tall yellowwood tree beside him, with half red and yellow and half green leaves, are very beautiful. 2. The north side of Fragrant Valley, where you can look out over the main lake area of Shanghu Lake, with a vast expanse of water and sky. 3. The water forest, where the lake water and pond cypress trees complement each other. Take a bamboo raft and enjoy a scenic water tour. 4. Hushan Hall, where the green water, red leaves, distant mountains, and blue sky look like a painting from afar.
