When Tang poetry meets reality, it's breathtakingly beautiful

🌺01 Suzhou's Humble Administrator's Garden: A colorful 'flower world' 'Poem on the Humble Administrator's Garden' by Wen Zhengming Why seek pleasure in the distant fields when the nearby garden reveals profound feelings? The spring grass by the broken bridge and flowing water, the sound of chickens at noon by the hibiscus fence and thatched cottage. Admiring a place without the noise of carts and horses, truly there are mountains and forests within the city. Not betraying the secluded spot favored by the ancients, holding books and teaching children to farm. In spring, the Humble Administrator's Garden is a realm of azaleas, crabapples, redbuds, peonies, wisterias, and various other spring flowers! A breathtakingly colorful 'flower world' that leaves you speechless!🌸🌷🌺 🎫Ticket: 80 yuan 📍Address: No. 178, Northeast Street, Gusu District 🚇Transportation: Take Metro Line 4 to Beisita Station Exit 4, and walk 1.3 kilometers to arrive! 🌺Spring Azalea Viewing: The azalea exhibition in the Humble Administrator's Garden continues until May 5th. Outdoor and potted azaleas are mainly found around the Garden's Viewing Pavilion and Tianquan Pavilion. Go check it out! 🛶02 Boat Tour: Experience the prosperity and tranquility of the water town 'Sending a Friend to Travel in Wu' by Du Xunhe When you arrive in Gusu, you'll see homes along the river. Few idle places in the ancient palace, but many small bridges over the water alleys. Lotus roots sold in the night market, spring boats laden with fine silks. From afar, knowing the moon that does not sleep, homesickness is in the fisherman's song. In Suzhou, many people live by the river. Take a small boat and weave through Pingjiang Road, admiring the clear water scenery while experiencing the bustling street views on both sides. You can take a boat tour in many places in Suzhou!🛶🌆 🚣Pingjiang Road rowboat: You can board at the dock 50 meters south of the intersection of Pingjiang Road and Baita East Road (Baojili Bridge Dock) in Gusu District, and next to the Humble Administrator's Garden Bridge (Humble Administrator's Garden Dock), with a ticket price of 40 yuan per person. 🚣Shantang Street rowboat: The boat tour route goes back and forth towards Tiger Hill, with a journey of about 35 minutes, and a ticket price of 80 yuan per seat. 🚣Xinshi Bridge Dock and Guxumen Dock also offer boat services, with ticket prices of 80 yuan per person and 138 yuan per person (different prices for different services). Go experience it!
