It's really not the Maldives! The area around Suzhou is stunningly beautiful

☀️My Taihu Lake Vacation Diary☀️ 1. 🚴♀️The Joy of Cycling I found that cycling around the lake here is completely free! Slowly riding along the 15-kilometer Rainbow Path, casually picking wildflowers by the roadside to tuck into the bike basket, the spring breeze on my face feels so wonderful~ (The money saved on tickets is just enough to buy an ice cream🍦) 2. 🛶Dialect Kayaking Story Learning to kayak with a Suzhou instructor, he taught us to sing the "Paddle, Paddle" tune in the soft Wu dialect, laughing so hard we almost dropped the paddle into the lake! Now I can finally paddle my little boat through the lotus flowers on my own~ (Friendly reminder: don’t eat too much before kayaking🤣) 3. 🐚May Exclusive Surprise Picked up lots of round snails by the lake, and the shop assistant taught us how to feed the elegant egrets. Being a "temporary caretaker" is so much fun, watching the birds dance gracefully is super healing! (Recommended to wear non-slip shoes for this~) 🏡24 Hours Staying at Naked Stables Resort in Suzhou ✨Bathtub view of Taihu Lake when you open the window ✨Heated outdoor pool under the starry sky (you can count stars while soaking✨) ✨Terrace breakfast kissed by the morning light (freshly made Su-style soup dumplings are amazing!) ✨Enjoy the whole villa all to yourself: 🌿A magical slide that goes straight into the pool 🍢Starry night barbecue with your own grill 🎵Singing nostalgic hits with mom in the KTV ✨Click below👇🏻 🌸Unexpected Bonus: ▫️Stumbled upon a lakeside lawn wedding, the white veil drifting looked like a movie scene ▫️Learned to make rabbit lanterns with a heritage crafts teacher (even beginners can make something!) ▫️Discovered a secret proposal spot—a natural heart-shaped lawn (witnessed a super sweet kite proposal💌) When the sunset dyes the lake orange🍊, I finally understand why this place is called the symbol of romance in Gusu. Drinking afternoon tea in the Taihu breeze, even mom said this is her dream vacation~
