Suzhou Dongshan Carved Building

#Mainland China Attractions The Diaohua Building is located in Dongshan Town, Dongting Lake, Suzhou, a manor-style imitation Ming Dynasty building. It is a representative work of architectural sculpture in Wuzhong District, Suzhou, and a rare object for studying the traditions, local schools and techniques of modern and contemporary Chinese folk sculpture art. Dongshan has been a major tourist attraction since ancient times. After the Ming and Qing Dynasties, dignitaries, landlords and wealthy local families chose this place to build villas and gardens for their own entertainment. The Carved Building is one of them, and it is also an outstanding example of Suzhou Ming and Qing architecture. After decades of development, the number of immigrants in Suzhou is several times that of the original inhabitants, but Dongshan Town is still dominated by locals. If you want to experience the real Suzhou folk customs, you will definitely not be disappointed here. #architecture #Suzhou #carving #Taihu Lake #Ming and Qing Dynasty architecture #the little style of Suzhou gardens #pond #lotus pond #woodcarving #Yichuangge #good places for the New Year
