Falling in love with Shantang, intoxicated in the seven-mile stretch

D5: Record the wonderful trip 2024.6.17——Seven-mile Shantang Shantang Street is located in the northwest of the ancient city of Suzhou, connecting to the 'first and second class wealthy and romantic place' Changmen in the east, and the 'number one scenic spot in Wuzhong' Tiger Hill in the west, with a total length of 3600 meters, hence it is called 'Seven-mile Shantang'. A single Shantang Street, half of Gusu city. Seven-mile Shantang, the Suzhou flavor condensed in the long river of years.

Shantang Street is not only a tourist attraction but also a commercial street. She has rolled in the mortal world, rolling for more than a thousand years, the rich sense of history, the rising sense of modernity, make her seem like a splash-ink watercolor painting, mile after mile, stretching for seven miles, laughing all the way under the colorful sun... The ancient street of Shantang, shrouded in the mist of Jiangnan, is gradually bursting with a new look in the soft Wu dialect. It has experienced more than a thousand years of historical vicissitudes, each ancient brick seems to have its story. The thousand-year-old Shantang, the thousand-year-old river is still flowing, telling the endless, sincere feelings...
