Brand-new Suzhou weekend leisure tour (clothing, food, housing and transportation economy edition) travel guide

Simple lines

DAY 1: Night Tour Guanqian Street

The next day: Pingjiang Road (starting from Baojili Bridge on Baita East Road to Ganjiang Road)-Guantaiwei River-Dinghui Temple Lane (Twin Towers, Wu Zuoren Art Museum, Dinghui Temple)-Cross Street Suzhou University Headquarters (former site of Soochow University)-Panmen-Canglangting-Shiquan Street.

Day 3: Jinji Lake Hubin Avenue-Shantang Street-Shilu Road-Around the Upper Reaches of Ancient City Water

Detailed introduction:

DAY 1 Arrive in Suzhou in the evening and check into the hotel. Because the ancient city is located in the geographical center of Suzhou, it is convenient to go anywhere. It is suggested that the hotel should be chosen as far as possible in the ancient city or along the moat. This strategy belongs to the economic version, which mainly promotes economic hotels. See appendix 1 for details.

Take care of the hotel, go into battle lightly, and fight out of Guanqian Street. First of all, solve the problem of food and clothing and replenish energy. There are many restaurants in the front area, with many choices, rich and simple. The south entrance of eunuch lane, shelter lane, public lane and Shaomo Town Lane is the dining center. See Appendix 2 for specific suggestions. In addition, regarding the catering in Suzhou, it is suggested to go to Gusu Food Network www.5 12ms.com for enquiry. There are many local gourmets in Suzhou in the forum. You can ask them for advice. In addition, the coupon printing provided by the website must be fully utilized, which can not only save money, but also achieve the purpose of economic tourism.

After a hearty meal, you can stroll all the way, look at the major shops and see the mysterious scenery. Several cafes along the river on the south side of Dongkou vinegar workshop bridge provide open-air seats in hot weather, which is still very good as a place to rest. If you want to listen to Suzhou traditional pingtan, Pinfang Tea Room under the veranda on the west side of Xuanmiaoguan Square has a performance every day, and you only need to pay the tea fee. The cheapest tea should not exceed 15 yuan/person. If you want to listen to more authentic or formal occasions, Guangyu Bookstore at the entrance of the first day of Gongxiang is more suitable. This is the first signboard of Suzhou Bookstore, but I wonder if there is an evening show.

The next day: Today's tour is mainly about exploring secluded alleys, so it is cost-effective, convenient and labor-saving to rent a bicycle to cross the alleys in Suzhou. See Appendix 3 for the rental point. You can choose to start with a bowl of noodles in Suzhou. Zhu Hongxing, Lu Changxing, Tong Dexing and Huang Tianyuan have many chain stores in the urban area, and there is also a Qingyang wonton chain store featuring wonton and baozi. 10 yuan's basic price can be well solved, and the taste is good.

The starting point of the tour is the entrance of Pingjiang Road, Baojili Bridge, Baita East Road. (BusNo。 70 1 Pingjiang road station) Pingjiang road is the most complete preserved area in the water lane system of Suzhou ancient city. Under the guidance of Mr. Ruan Sanyi, an urban construction expert, the traditional style of repairing the old is maintained. Personally, I think its scenery is no less than other Jiangnan towns. There is a "half garden" about 50 meters east of Baita Road. Everything in the garden is only half: the bridge is only half (meaning width) and the pavilion is half. It used to be a teahouse, but now it is a hotel. But if you are lucky, the doorman will let you in for free. After all, the area is not very large.

Crossing Baita East Road, you begin to enter the essence of Pingjiang Absolute Reserve. Half-broken stone bridges, dangerous buildings by the river, dilapidated old houses, alleys paved with gravel and stone steps extending into the river may help you find traces of life in the remnants of history. If you go south to Huxiang Messenger Lane, you can see a pair of double bridges perpendicular to each other (Zhouzhuang is like this, and there is no need to buy tickets here, and there is no crowded flow of people in Zhouzhuang. The artistic conception of Jiangnan can only be realized in such an environment. The straight bridge belongs to Pingjiang Road, and the high arch on the side connects the Xu Xiang of Caohu Lake. This double-bridge pattern is also found in Daliuzhi Lane and Daxinqiao Lane below. Crossing Cang Xie Street eastward in Daxinqiao Lane (there is a newly-opened Wudi Family Hotel on Cang Xie Street, which feels like a small home, and you can experience the taste of people in the alley when you live here) is the famous Lotus Garden (20 yuan) in Suzhou. In fact, you can't find lotus roots in the lotus garden, because there are two gardens on the left and right of the owner's house, so it is called the even garden, and later it was renamed the more poetic lotus garden. The main landscape of the lotus garden is the Yellowstone rockery in the garden, where Dream in the Garden was filmed. Further south, turn at Zhongzhangjia Lane, and you will arrive at Jin Quan Hall, which is now the Opera Museum with the only existing ancient stage in Suzhou. There is also a quadrangle-style pingtan bookstore next to Jin Quan Hall. Tired of playing, it is also very enjoyable to have a cup of tea and listen to pingtan.

Continue south to Ganjiang Road. Standing on the bridge, you can see the Twin Towers standing opposite. Cross the road obliquely and enter the area of Guantaixu River. Turn right to the second bridge (there is a pavilion by the bridge) which is Dinghui Temple Lane, with three scenic spots, namely the Twin Towers (8 yuan), Wu Zuoren Art Museum and Dinghui Temple. In particular, the westernmost Dinghui Temple (free of charge) is very small, but the two big ginkgo trees in the temple and the jingle bells on the cornices of the main hall really make people feel very clean.

Return to Guantaixu River, turn left at Wangxing Bridge on Cross Street, and the east end is the headquarters of Suzhou University, where Soochow University was originally located (it's not bad to go in, the vegetation is lush, and the tall19th century western-style buildings will make you feel like you are abroad. ) The south lawn is surrounded by the essence of architecture.

It's almost noon here, so we can have lunch in Phoenix Street nearby. See Appendix 4 for the recommendation of surrounding catering. In the afternoon, take Cross Street, Renmin Road and Nanmen Road to Panmen Scenic Area (tickets for 25 yuan and Dengruiguang Tower 6 yuan). Panmen is the most complete existing land and water gate in China, and the whole scenic spot is quite large. Finally, I returned to Canglang Pavilion on Renmin Road (20 yuan). There is an archway at the door, opposite the Confucian Temple (free of charge), and the Suzhou antique market is in the Confucian Temple (interested friends can also bargain with the stall owner). Those little things are not expensive, and may even give you treasures! )

In the evening, I recommend going to Shiquan Street, a nightlife gathering place in Suzhou. Friends who have never experienced Suzhou Teahouse can go to Qiantang Tea Man (tea-funded 50 yuan) at Wuqiao intersection of Shiquan Street or Water Paradise (tea-funded 38 yuan) in Fenghuang Street of Shiquan Street. The evening performance starts at 5 o'clock and lasts until 2 o'clock in the middle of the night. Rich refreshments and snacks are absolutely full. Qiantang Tea People, in particular, have a pingtan performance at eight o'clock every night, and the decoration is also very traditional in China. Shiquan Street is a famous bar street in Suzhou! The beauty and castle there are the hottest bars in Suzhou! (I suggest that if you want to find a bar, you should still look for the two I recommended, or go to a small bar with many people and shops. It's dark and few people. Don't go in, you may be slaughtered after drinking a glass of wine! )

Day 3: In the morning, you can go to Jinji Lake Hubin Avenue (No.68 Xinsu International Hotel Station, 307.28.46 Hubin Avenue Station). Lakeside Avenue is a landscape design by Yi Dao Company of the United States. From north to south, it consists of camphor garden, city square, yacht wharf, underwater stage and lakeside promenade. It is about 2 kilometers long and the landscape is quite distinctive and modern. China is called Daling Port, and now it has become Suzhou. You can also choose to go by speedboat, ride a tandem bike and take a boat to Boxin Island in the middle of the lake immediately.

Take bus 307 and 68 from Hubin Avenue to Xiaorihui Bridge Station, and then change from the original platform to bus 70 and get off at Xinmin Bridge. Go back 100m and you will find Shantang Street. What is being repaired now is the first phase of Shantang Old Street. If there is enough time, I suggest that you can continue to walk in the direction of Tiger Hill after Shantang Street. After crossing Xinmin Bridge, Shantang Street is closer to the reality of life, and there are still many scenes of life in old Suzhou. The official residence bar there is very popular now. I heard that Sun Nan is also the boss in it! )

You can solve the lunch problem at Shilu Road at noon. In the afternoon, you can get off at the No.7 and No.70 stops of Xinshi Road, opposite Xumenchuan Wharf. Around 2 pm, there is a yacht (30 yuan) around the upper reaches of the ancient city water, surrounding the 2500-year-old Suzhou ancient city. End this trip.

Appendix 1. Recommended budget hotels in Suzhou

① MOTEL 168 hotel chain on Pingqi Road, the whole hotel is as good as home in terms of environmental facilities and room size, but the price is the same as home. It would be better if we could book a special room for 2 18 yuan/night. Take bus No.2 at the railway station, only two stops to get off at Pingqi Garden Station, and turn around 100 meters.

② Home Inn, Lion Forest Store, Sanxiang Store and Shilu Store are all time-honored brands, and their current prices are around 200.

Jinjiang Inn, Suzhou Amusement Park Store, is a bit far away.

④ Jin Hanlin Super Eight Hotel, an American brand in the middle, is a little far from Wu Dong Building, but as long as 158 yuan, Suzhou is a small city with convenient transportation!

⑤ The Blue Clipper City Hotel on Linton Road is located in the downtown area of Suzhou, close to the Humble Administrator's Garden and Lion Forest, the world cultural heritage. It takes only 10 minutes to walk to Guanqian Street, and breakfast is only 130 yuan in the current standard room special price. With such good conditions, it is estimated that the price will come up soon. Home is like this before!

6 Yinquan Hotel in Causality Lane, Renmin Road, the price is not bad. The standard room can be decorated 160 yuan, but the service is a bit like the previous state-owned hotel, but the location is good, just behind Guanqian Street and across an alley. There is also a newly opened City Star Business Hotel next to it, and the transportation is more convenient. Price 190 yuan, free broadband, value for money.

⑦ Zhu Hui Road Suzhou International Youth Hostel

HOSTEL's Suzhou franchise store is in a good location, surrounded by Netscape Garden, not far from Shiquan Street, and the standard room is 230 yuan. Recommended for travelers, there are good beds for rent, 50 yuan/beds, clean, simple, convenient, cheap, the purpose of youth hostel. Located at Zhu Hui Road, 50 meters away from CITIC Industrial Bank at the T-junction of Nanyuan North Road, the railway station takes No.2 bus to Zhu Hui Hotel Station or No.29 bus to Nanyuan Bridge Station, the south bus station takes No.55.60.29 bus to Nanyuan Bridge Station and the north bus station takes No.55.29 bus to Nanyuan Bridge Station.

Maihe international chain shiquan ST direct sales stores

MYHOTEL is next to Suzhou Hotel in Shiquan Street, not far from the famous castle bar. In a quiet place in the town, the decoration design is superior to the family hotel. It is a good city boutique hotel, with a minimum of 188 yuan.

Appendix II. Food and beverage recommendations in the preview area

(1) Bifengfang Chuanfu Building, which specializes in improving Sichuan cuisine, has moderate price and sufficient food, and often needs to wait for a comeback, with a per capita 50 yuan.

② Good snacks, one in Bifengfang and one in tea garden, are affordable. Recommend good fried rice or 18 yuan set meal, 20 yuan per capita.

Furenfang Mengzi rice noodles, its signature 3 yuan/block noodles and chicken juice, the prices range from 6 yuan to 40 yuan.

④ Not far from Mengzi rice noodles, there is Lamian Noodles in Kyushu. The signboard is Japanese-style Lamian Noodles, which is delicious, only 6 yuan, and there are many simple business meals. This kind of food, this kind of price, is really good and cheap.

(4) Mama Rice Noodles Chain Store, with many varieties of rice noodles, each bowl is 5 ~ 10 yuan, and rice noodles can be added for free.

For other special dining, please refer to www.suzhouluyou.com Gusu Travel Network.

Appendix 3. Suzhou bike rental station

There is one south of the gate of Pingmen Bus Company.

There is one at the entrance of the cross street at the headquarters of Suzhou University.

③ There is one near Suzhou Hotel in Shiquan Street.

None of the above has a formal facade, but a sign is hung on the roadside. Look carefully when looking for it, so as not to make mistakes.

As a local, I haven't rented a car, so I'm not sure about the price. Personally, it seems that the fee is charged by the day, which should not exceed 10 yuan/day, but the deposit may cost two or three hundred yuan.

Appendix 4. Food and beverage recommendation near Fenghuang Street

① The mortal set on the west side of the intersection of Fenghuang Street at Cross Street or the Fengwei tea restaurant on the south side of the intersection 100m are all Cantonese tea restaurants, with per capita 25 yuan.

(2) Tianshengyuan (Chaoyang food market, next door to Yuanzu) specializes in steamed buns and wonton.

③ Lvyang Wonton Chain Store, next door to the vermicelli.

(4) "About eating. Com "Ha ha, the name of this shop is so strange. It is located on the west side of Wangxing Bridge on Cross Street. It's a home-cooked dish, 30 yuan per capita, and it's a special store with a lot of emotional appeal.

⑤ Qin Long Dumpling House (Renmin Road Ma Yin Bridge), per capita 10 yuan.

Tips for traveling in Suzhou:

1. Many people recommend a one-day tour or hotel at the exit of the railway station or bus station. Never mind. As long as you hesitate, he will haunt you for a long time!

It is best not to take a tricycle in Suzhou. Don't listen to the recommendation of foreign drivers such as water town folk garden, Yiyuan Garden and Hehuayuan at extremely low fares. Not to mention that those places are not fun, drivers can also get kickbacks from your contributions. None of these drivers are good people. You can pay attention. Now taxis are the same. They just want kickbacks and will recommend you where to live and play. If you believe it, you will be cheated.

3. All buses in Suzhou can accept Shanghai Transportation Card and Wuxi Taihu Pearl Card, and the fare is 10% off.

There are fake monks in the North Temple Pagoda and some temples in Dongxishan, extorting foreign tourists on the grounds of fortune telling.

Suzhou specialties are basically some silk and Soviet-style sweets and cakes. Silk shops are concentrated in the south of Jiejia Bridge, and there are some before the view. The best sweets and cakes are Caizhizhai, Daoxiang Village and Yeshou River, all in Guanqian Street. Small shops around the garden may be fraudulent, so try not to shop around the garden.

I am a little Suzhou, and I often ride my bike in the alley on rest days. Pingjiang road is really good. Unlike Xiangshan Tang Street. It is very old and full of charm. It's good for you to go in and see the old house in the alley sometime. The guide won't take you there. The teaching buildings in Suda are not bad. They are all western-style villas, not newly built. The large lawn in the south looks very comfortable.

There are many places to listen to books, such as the Pingtan Hall in Zhongzhangjia Lane (Guanqian Street East, Linton Road, Daru Lane and Pingjiang Road), which Guangyu has already introduced (generally no reading at night) and Shilu-Meizhu Bookstore (with performances at night). These places are 13: 30- 15 every day. If all the tourists leave, those old listeners will blame me-there are no seats. However, in order to carry forward the pingtan culture, it is still worthwhile. )

Be sure to visit old scenic spots (such as those on the map). First, the new attractions are not full of new flavors, and second, they may be slaughtered.

Correction: Actually, both Yiyuan Garden and Lotus Garden are OK. After other big gardens, we might as well try these small gardens. Be careful not to buy coupons (even tea), buy the cheapest ones, and don't let the tricycle take them away (again, those people are not good people). Yiyuan Garden is relatively small, and there may be more people during the day. The Huangshi rockery in Furong Garden is a must in Suzhou gardens. (Now it is contracted by a private boss, so there will be demands to attract customers. )

If you have any questions, you can ask me in suzhoutour888@hotmail.com. I can leave messages in my community almost every day. I know more about food and play, and my major is accommodation and travel. I won't just recommend hotels with high rebates like Ctrip. Finally, it was unfortunate that the traveler stayed in Suzhou to see me. We are hotel people in Suzhou, and we are very familiar with it. Be careful when taking the bus, especially along Renmin Road. Just tell the driver where to go and ignore them. They will pretend to recommend you a cheap and good place. How is that possible? When he gets a kickback, the traveler will lose. I wish you a pleasant and smooth stay in Suzhou.
