Trip to Suzhou, China 🇨🇳

It was my second time to Suzhou, China with family. We began our journey in Suzhou at The Humble Administrator’s Garden, the largest and most famous classical garden in the city. As we wandered through its serene pathways, we found endless opportunities for stunning photos 📸 charming pavilions, reflective ponds, and perfectly placed bridges framed by lush greenery. Early morning ⛅️ was the best time to visit, as the soft light and fewer crowds allowed us to capture the garden’s tranquil beauty. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a mix of history and artistry in their photographs 🙌🙌🙌 📍178 Northeast Street, Gusu District, Suzhou, Jiangsu, China We also explored Tiger Hill, a must-visit for both its historical significance and its natural beauty. The highlight here is the leaning Yunyan Pagoda, which looks stunning against the backdrop of the hill’s verdant scenery. We took our time climbing to the top, stopping at picturesque spots like Sword Pond and ancient bonsai gardens 🌺 Sunset was the perfect time to visit, as the golden light bathed the hill in a warm glow. I would recommend this site to anyone wanting dramatic yet serene photography opportunities 📸 📍8 Huqiu Shanmen Road, Gusu District, Suzhou, Jiangsu, China We also visited Pingjiang Road, a charming historic street that felt like stepping back in time. With its cobblestone lanes, canal views, and traditional Suzhou-style architecture, this area offered countless photo opportunities. We especially loved capturing the reflections of stone bridges and red lanterns on the water. Late afternoon was the ideal time for us, as the soft light and lively atmosphere added to the street’s charm. I would highly recommend taking a boat 🛶 ride along the canal for unique perspectives. 📍Pingjiang Road, Gusu District, Suzhou, Jiangsu, China We also visited Suzhou Museum, an architectural masterpiece designed by I.M. Pei. The museum’s modern design beautifully complements its traditional Chinese garden 🪴 elements, creating an exceptional setting for photography 📸 We explored its unique interior, capturing light streaming through geometric windows and shadows dancing on sleek walls. Morning ⛅️ was the best time for us to visit, as the natural light highlighted the museum’s minimalist elegance. I would recommend this spot for anyone who appreciates modern 🪵 architecture with a touch of tradition. 📍 204 Northeast Street, Gusu District, Suzhou, Jiangsu, China Suzhou was really fun and it is perfect for capturing blooming flowers and lush greenery in all their glory. #chinatrip #trip #vacation
