Suzhou Day Trip

I've been to Suzhou many times, and it's really hard to find a unique and interesting route to walk again. A weekend day trip, the route is Dinghui Temple - Twin Pagodas - Jiachen Lane Brick Pagoda - Huan Dai Temple - Baoshan Temple - Mingyue Zen Temple - Mingyue Bay Village. Can't say it's particularly good, but it's still recommended. Suzhou Station take the subway to Lindun Road Station, Dinghui Temple is in the alley next door. Before touring, you can have a Chinese Bruch at the neighboring Wanfuxing, which is said to have been founded in 1911. The alley is named after the temple, called Dinghui Temple Alley. The temple is said to have been founded during the Tang Dynasty, and the existing buildings were rebuilt during the Qing Dynasty. In front of the temple, there are two huge ginkgo trees. When the autumn wind blows and the leaves turn yellow, it must be extremely beautiful. Of course, now they stand in front of the door like two braids, making the temple lively and playful. To the east of Dinghui Temple are the Twin Pagodas. The Twin Pagodas are yellow all over, and to be honest, they don't look high-end, but fortunately, they are surrounded by trees, and the ruins of the damaged grand hall next to them immediately present a sense of historical vicissitudes. Continue east along Dinghui Temple Alley, pass through the popular Twin Pagodas Market, and walk for ten minutes to find the Jiachen Lane Brick Pagoda. The brick pagoda is very low in height, but it is tightly structured, exquisite and delicate, with a modern aesthetic. Next to the Jiachen Lane Brick Pagoda is the Xiangmen Subway Station, so you can also walk in reverse, first to Xiangmen and then towards Lindun Road Subway Station.
