Lazybones who can't understand complicated strategies, please come in

Lazybones who can't understand complicated strategies, please come in💢||| I chose these four locations because they are close to each other, near Suzhou Station, surrounded by subways, and convenient for transportation. There's everything for eating, drinking, and shopping, and a budget of one to two hundred yuan is enough. (For those like me who arrive at Suzhou Station🚄 and are on a one-day tour, I suggest copying the order directly, so you don't have to backtrack.) 1️⃣ Xiyuan Temple Transportation: Take a taxi from Suzhou Station to Xiyuan Temple💰12🚗 Time: Try to arrive before 9 o'clock⌛️ so there won't be too many people eating noodles at Xiyuan Temple, and it's also better to feed the cats as they haven't eaten much yet. Tickets: 💰5R, scan the code at the entrance to buy tickets, no reservation needed, if you want a paper ticket you can go to the ticket window. Strategy: At the entrance, there are grandmas selling cat snacks and grandpas selling calligraphy fans. Enter and receive three incense sticks, go straight to the Hall of Heavenly Kings on the right to light the incense, the specific method can be seen on the sign. Exit the Hall of Heavenly Kings and turn left to eat vegetarian noodles🍜, order at the entrance, get a ticket, then queue up for noodles. The place to get peace charms and dragon ropes is in the Sutra Copying Pavilion opposite the Lake Center Pavilion. Cost: Guanyin noodles💰15+ peace charm💰20/piece + fan💰10 2️⃣ Shuangta Market Transportation: Take a taxi directly from Xiyuan Temple💰13🚗 Time: Recommended before 12 o'clock, to solve lunch Tickets: None Strategy: Half of the market is a vegetable market, cold dishes, and cultural and creative stalls, the other half is a street with open-flame snacks. There are two sizes of plum drunk shrimp🦐, the small one is 48 for half a pound about 4-5 pieces, the large one is 68 for half a pound about 2-3 pieces, poached chicken is 25/box, all sweet and very fresh. Nuojiji pastry is about 20/box on average, and the dessert tofu pudding is about 18/serving on average. Cost: Plum drunk shrimp💰49+ poached chicken💰25+ taro mochi green dumpling tofu pudding💰18 3️⃣ Pingjiang Road Transportation: Two-minute walk from Shuangta Market, just cross a road🚶 Time: Go straight after lunch, just in time to digest Tickets: None Strategy: There are many cultural and creative shops, each with its own characteristics. The most popular foods are plum blossom cakes and chicken foot corners. There are two 'Suzhou' character walls, located at 68 and 82 Pingjiang Road respectively. Cost: Water💰3 (actually, there is drinking water available) 4️⃣ Ou Garden Transportation: Five-minute walk east from Pingjiang Road🚶 Time: Try to arrive before 4 pm, entry stops at 5 pm, and the garden closes at 5:30 pm Tickets: 💰20R, no reservation needed, tickets can be bought on the platform or on-site Strategy: The garden is quite large, with many varieties of flowers, plants, and trees, and it's very suitable for wearing Hanfu and taking photos. If possible, it's recommended to follow along with a senior tour group to listen in, as you can learn a lot of interesting history, and the garden also has recommended tour routes marked. Cost: 💰0 Duration: 7 hours Equipment: 14plus original images straight out
