Suzhou Lion Grove Garden | 2-Day Immersive Jiangnan Tour

| 2-day immersive Jiangnan tour. I recently visited the Lion Grove Garden in Suzhou and was deeply impressed by its Jiangnan charm! I spent two days and one night there, and had a deep experience of the beauty of the garden. Now, I would like to share my fresh travel guide with you. 🗓Itinerary: Day 1: Morning: Arrive in Suzhou, check in to the hotel, and head straight to the Lion Grove Garden. As soon as you enter the garden, you will feel like you are in an ink painting. The garden is full of grotesque rocks and winding paths, like a maze, and you will find new surprises at every step. Walking through the garden, you can feel the ancient people's imagination, and you can also see other tourists poking their heads out of the rock crevices, which is very interesting. Noon: Have authentic Squirrel Fish and Eel Paste with Soy Sauce at a Suzhou restaurant near the Lion Grove Garden. The sweet and crispy fish and the tender and smooth eel paste are very satisfying! Afternoon: Continue to explore the Lion Grove Garden and enjoy the pavilions, towers, ponds, and lotus flowers. The sunlight shines on the water, the lotus flowers sway in the wind, and the scenery is beautiful. You can also visit the Tingfeng Garden, which is not far from the Lion Grove Garden. The garden is small but quiet, full of the gentle atmosphere of Jiangnan. Evening: Visit Pingjiang Road, an ancient street with willows along the river and many specialty shops and food stalls. Try a plum blossom cake, which is soft and sweet, and enjoy Suzhou's nightlife while walking and eating. Day 2: Morning: Get up early and visit the Humble Administrator's Garden, which is next to the Lion Grove Garden. The two gardens have different styles, but both are unique. The grandeur of the Humble Administrator's Garden contrasts sharply with the delicacy of the Lion Grove Garden. Stroll through the Humble Administrator's Garden, enjoy the seasonal plants, and feel the beauty of the garden in all seasons. Noon: Have a bowl of Suzhou-style noodle soup at a restaurant near the Humble Administrator's Garden. The noodles are thin and the soup is fresh, with rich toppings, simple and delicious. Afternoon: Pack your luggage and prepare to return home, ending your pleasant trip to the Lion Grove Garden in Suzhou. 🏠Accommodation: It is recommended to stay in a homestay near the Lion Grove Garden. Many homestays retain the characteristics of Jiangnan dwellings, with white walls and black tiles, and a quiet environment. At night, you can hear the sound of insects outside the window, as if you were back in your childhood. 🍜Food: In addition to the Squirrel Fish, Eel Paste with Soy Sauce, Suzhou-style noodle soup, and plum blossom cake mentioned above, there are also pan-fried buns, begonia cakes, sweet porridge, and more, all worth a try. Suzhou's food is sweet, so if you like sweet food, you will love it! 🚗Transportation: Suzhou has convenient transportation. You can take the subway from the high-speed railway station to the Lion Grove Garden. If you want to explore Suzhou more freely, you can also choose to ride a shared bike and feel the city's atmosphere.
