The most worthwhile scenic spots in Suzhou gardens.

Introduction: Suzhou Garden, also known as Suzhou Classical Garden, is a world cultural heritage, a national AAAAA tourist attraction and one of the top ten scenic spots in China. Known as the "Garden City", it enjoys the reputation of "Jiangnan Garden is the best in the world, Suzhou Garden is the first in the south of the Yangtze River" and "Rebuilding Gankun is just a stone's throw away". It is the leader and pride of China's garden culture and an outstanding representative of China's gardens. Let's share the most worth seeing scenic spots in Suzhou gardens. Welcome to read!

Suzhou gardens began in Gusu, the capital of Wu State in the Spring and Autumn Period, formed in the Five Dynasties, matured in the Song Dynasty and flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. By the end of Qing Dynasty, there were more than 65,438+070 gardens of various colors in Suzhou. At present, there are more than 60 complete gardens and 65,438+09 open to the outside world, including Canglang Pavilion, Lion Forest, Humble Administrator's Garden, Lingering Garden, Master Garden and Yiyuan Garden.

Suzhou gardens have their unique historical position and value in the history of world gardening. Suzhou Gardens, with superb artistic techniques of freehand brushwork of landscapes, contain rich traditional thoughts and cultural connotations of China, and are a model of gardening art of oriental civilization.

The main attractions worth seeing most:

Canglang Pavilion 1

Canglang Pavilion, located in Sanyuanfang, south of Suzhou, is the oldest garden in Suzhou. Covering area 10800 m2. There is a clear water in the garden, with a reflection of waves and thousands of scenic spots.

The main scenic spot of Canglang Pavilion is surrounded by mountains and buildings. The pavilion and the undulating promenade along the mountain also use the water paintings outside the park to communicate the mountains and water inside and outside the park through the infiltration of leaking windows on the promenade, so that the water surface, pool shore, rockery and pavilion are integrated. The garden is surrounded by stone paths, with lush old trees, green bamboos, vines hanging and wild flowers blooming. It is simple and natural, and the scenery is as green as the real Shan Ye forest.

The famous Canglang Pavilion is hidden at the top of the mountain. It stands high in the mountains and the eaves are towering. The pavilion has a simple structure and is in harmony with the atmosphere of the whole garden. There are five or six hundred-year-old trees around the pavilion. The stone forehead "Canglang Pavilion" on the pavilion was written by Yu Yue. Stone carvings on stone pillars: the breeze and bright moon are priceless; Get the moon first by being close to the water. There are 108 kinds of leaky windows in the whole park, all of which have various patterns and exquisite structures. There are 59 leaky windows built on the mountain, which are unique in Suzhou classical water house garden.

The largest main building in the garden is the "Ming Dow Hall" in the southeast of the rockery, which is three rooms wide. Ming Dow Hall takes the name "If you listen to innocence, you will know". It is a place where scholars of Ming and Qing dynasties gave lectures. Surrounded by rockeries and ancient trees, the hall is grand and solemn. There are three rubbings of stone carvings on the Song tablet hanging on the wall, namely Astronomical Map, Song Yu Map and Song Pingjiang Map (Suzhou City Map).

In Tangnan, several pavilions, such as "Hua Yao Realm", "Initiating Stone Building" and "Kanshan Building", all have their own advantages. Folding to the north, there are three halls, named "Cuilinglong", surrounded by bamboo, named after the meaning of "sunlight penetrates bamboo, exquisitely carved".

2. Humble Administrator's Garden

Humble Administrator's Garden is located atNo. 178, Northeast Street, Loumen, Suzhou. It is the representative of Jiangnan gardens and the largest classical garden in Suzhou gardens. Now it is listed as a national key cultural relics protection unit. Most of the existing buildings in the Humble Administrator's Garden were rebuilt in the tenth year of Xianfeng (AD 1860) when the Humble Administrator's Garden became the loyal palace garden of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and by the end of the Qing Dynasty, three relatively independent small gardens in the east, middle and west were formed.

The central part is the main attraction and essence of Humble Administrator's Garden. The area is about 18.5 mu. Its overall layout is centered on the pool, and pavilions are built by the water, and some pavilions are straight out of the water, which is quite characteristic of Jiangnan water town.

The overall pattern still maintains the rich, simple and elegant artistic style of Ming gardens. The "Yuanxiangtang" featuring lotus fragrance is the main building of the main scenic spot of Humble Administrator's Garden in Central China. Located on the south bank of the pool, the pool faces the East-West Mountain Island. The pool is clear and vast, and lotus flowers are planted everywhere. The mountain island is covered with vines, and there is a bridge between the two valleys. There are two pavilions on the mountain island, "Xiang Xue Weiyun Pavilion" in the west and "Daishuang Pavilion" in the east, with four seasons scenery.

Judging from the architectural names of Humble Administrator's Garden, most of them are related to lotus flowers. The central scenic spot-loquat garden also has fine gardens such as micro-architecture, Yulantang and Jianshanlou.

The west was originally a "supplementary garden" with an area of about 12.5 mu. Its water surface is circuitous, the layout is compact, and pavilions are built by mountains and rivers. Because after a substantial reconstruction, the ingenious and artificial artistic style formed after Qianlong gained the upper hand, but the water and stone parts are still close to the central scenic spot, and the winding water corridors and streams passing through Ling Bo are masterpieces of Suzhou gardening art.

The eastern part was originally called "returning to hometown", and the layout was mainly flat hills, pine lawns and bamboo houses. With the pavilions in the mountain pool, it still maintains a spacious and lively style. The main buildings are Lan Xuetang, Furong Pavilion, Tian Quan Pavilion and Zhuoyunfeng, all of which are relocated.

The layout of Humble Administrator's Garden is dense and natural, characterized by water, vast water surface, simple and innocent scenery and nature. Humble Administrator's Garden is a spectacular classical luxury garden, which is known as the "mother of gardens in the world" because of its layout of mountain island, bamboo dock, Songshan Mountain and Qushui.

Step 3 stay in the park

Lingering Garden is as famous as Beijing Summer Palace, chengde mountain resort and Suzhou Humble Administrator's Garden. The number of buildings staying in the garden ranks first among Suzhou gardens, and buildings such as halls, corridors, powder walls and cave doors are combined with rockeries, pools and flowers to form dozens of garden sketches of different sizes. Its outstanding treatment in space fully embodies the superb skills and wisdom of ancient gardeners, as well as the artistic style and characteristics of Jiangnan garden architecture.

The whole garden of Lingering Garden is divided into four parts. In a garden, you can enjoy four different scenery: landscape, pastoral, mountain forest and garden. The central part is famous for its waterscape, which is the essence of the whole garden. In the east, Quyuan cloister architecture wins. In the east of the garden, there are more than a dozen places, such as the famous drizzle fast fish hall, the nymphs cutting hall, the place where my study is returned, the Yuntai and the Guanyun Building. There are three stone peaks standing behind the pool in the hospital, with the stone crown Yunfeng in the middle and RuiYunfeng and Yun Xiu Peak on both sides. There are pastoral scenery and new bonsai gardens in the north; The west area is the highest place in the whole park, full of wild interest, strange rockeries, and natural accumulation of rocks and stones. Bishan Building and B&B Building in Han Dynasty in Jinan are the main landscape buildings in Lingering Garden.

The park is centered on the pool, and there is a rockery pavilion in the north of the pool, with trees reflecting each other. The fragrance of osmanthus fragrans on the rockery to the west of Chixi is the best place to overlook the whole park, and there is a long corridor connecting all places.

There are also "Little Taoyuan (Little Penglai)", Cui Yuan Pavilion, Quxi Building and Qingfengchi Pavilion in the architectural landscape of Lingering Garden.

4. Netscape Garden

Master Wang's Garden is a representative work of medium-sized classical gardens in Suzhou. Master Wang Garden has exquisite layout and compact structure, and is famous for its exquisite architecture and coordinated spatial scale. The garden is divided into three different areas. There are houses in the east and gardens in the middle.

Master Wang's garden is divided into stone areas, with Huangshi in the main garden pool area and lake stones in other courtyards, which are not mixed. Focusing on water, the pavilions around the pool are also surrounded by mountains and waters, spacious and elegant, and the promenade is surrounded by scenery and poetic and natural. Ancient trees and flowers are also famous for their antiquity, strangeness, elegance, color, fragrance and appearance, which complement each other with buildings and mountain ponds and form a closed water courtyard in the main garden. The water in the pool is clear, and there are duck-shooting corridors in the east, south and north directions, water pavilions in the tassels, pavilions in the wind when the moon arrives, painting pavilions in the pines and pavilions outside the bamboo. It focuses on the scenery in spring, summer, autumn and winter, as well as the scenery changes in the morning, afternoon, evening and evening.

Introduction of Suzhou tourist attractions

Suzhou has the following tourist attractions:

1. Suzhou Garden

Generally speaking, Suzhou gardens have three characteristics. First, the landscape of the garden imitates nature: take natural landscape as the theme, adjust measures to local conditions, artificially imitate natural scenery, build ponds along Fulei Mountain, skillfully build pavilions, decorate trees, and emphasize poetry and painting. Second, the garden pays attention to elegance and tranquility: the landscape of the garden is small and big, and it is borrowed from the inside and outside, with pictures in the paintings, natural layout, beautiful and solemn. Third, the national style should be highlighted in the construction of the park: the ancient buildings in the park should be integrated by artistic means such as painting, calligraphy and poetry. There are poems in the scenery and paintings in the poems, which are the crystallization of ancient culture and art in China.

2. Zhouzhuang Town

Zhouzhuang Town is located 38 kilometers southeast of Suzhou. Wu Guanzhong, a famous painter in ancient times, wrote that "Huangshan Mountain gathers the beauty of mountains and rivers in China, and Zhouzhuang gathers the beauty of water towns in China", while overseas newspapers call Zhouzhuang the first water town in China. Zhouzhuang has a history of nearly 900 years and rich cultural connotations. If you want to choose the most representative ancient water town in China, there is no doubt that she is Zhouzhuang, the first water town in China.

Stay in the park

Liuyuan is located at No.338, Wailiuyuan Road, Nagato, Suzhou, an ancient city in the south of the Yangtze River. It is famous for its exquisite architectural layout and countless strange stones. Together with Humble Administrator's Garden in Suzhou, Summer Palace in Beijing and chengde mountain resort, it is also called the four famous gardens in China. Lingering Garden is located outside Nagato. The Lingering Garden was built by Xu Taishi, a servant during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, and is called the East Garden. During the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty, I came back to China to observe it and named it Hanbizhuang, commonly known as Liuyuan.

Where to travel in June? Suzhou raiders two-day tour. ppt

I have been in Suzhou for almost three days. On the first morning, I will go to Tiger Hill. If I shop carefully, I will come out at one or two in the afternoon. Go to Humble Administrator's Garden by car after leaving the door, which takes more than two hours. Come out of Humble Administrator's Garden and turn right. The Suzhou Museum next to it is also worth a visit. Remember, it is free! If you still have energy at night, go to Shantang Street. Shiban Road near Shantang Street is a pedestrian street, and there are hotels nearby. You'd better find a 7-day chain or home inns. The price is about 100 to 120. The key is to feel at ease. You can go to Mudu Yan Jia Garden the next day, and the Lingyan Temple next to it is also worth a visit. Zhouzhuang is too far from the city, and it takes a day to walk. On the third day, you can choose the garden area in the city, such as Lion Forest, but 1000 yuan is a little tight! It is recommended to check the bus route before going to save traffic expenses as much as possible. Tickets are more expensive, and eating around the scenic spots is more expensive. Better have more budget!

Bus route: Get off at the train station and take a taxi 10 yuan to Lion Forest. There are buses such as 1, 23 13, 306, 5438+0, 202, all of which are 1 yuan, with air conditioning in 2 yuan. Here, there are buses everywhere. I think this is the best point, which is a transit point.

Tip: Suzhou has a good law and order, and accommodation needs to be registered, which is not as good as Sanya. But the tricycle drivers in Suzhou are very annoying. The best way is to ignore them. They are all migrant workers in Suzhou. In short, they are annoying. When you see tourists, say, where are you going? What is Beauty Street? Never pay attention to them and never ask them for directions. There are also some taxi drivers in Suzhou. Sometimes he treats you as a foreigner and asks where to go. He will say that this place is not good and take you to live elsewhere. Because they will get a commission, and you will be slaughtered. In short, don't trust these people too much when you are away from home. The best way to ask for directions is to ask maps and ordinary citizens. This is the best way to get to Jiahe Hotel. Address: opposite the lion forest parking lot on Huayuan Road. There is an internet cafe opposite. The place surrounded by lion forest is lion forest. Personally, I think the sign of Lion Forest is not easy to find, because I can't see obvious instructions when I get off the bus stop. Now I'll teach you a good way: I'll see a supermarket when I get off the bus, opposite the Tongtianfu Hotel. That road is called Shizilin Temple Lane, and I have been coming in. Lion Forest is at the crossroads, and I can also see the golden harvest. Turn left and go straight to the Humble Administrator's Garden, which is very close. Go straight at the intersection, then turn left, and you will arrive at Pingjiang Historic Street. Never take a tricycle, because there is no need to spend this money. Actually, it's very close, but the sign is not clear. Suzhou city is not big. It is said that the ancient city of Suzhou (mainly Pingjiang District) was also called Pingjiang House in the old days. From south to north, from east to west, taxis will not surpass 20 yuan. The purpose of self-help tour is to help myself completely, and regard my trip as an opportunity to learn local knowledge. Use snacks, prepare more, that's it!

Play: Suzhou gardens rank first in the world. "Suzhou Garden is a comprehensive artistic work of architecture, gardens, flowers and trees, sculpture, calligraphy and painting, which combines natural beauty and artistic beauty into one, forming a tortuous picture. There are more than 60 gardens in the city, among which Humble Administrator's Garden and Lingering Garden are listed as the four famous gardens in China. Together with nine classical gardens such as Master Wang Garden, Huanxiu Mountain Villa, Canglang Pavilion, Lion Forest, Art Garden, Lovers Garden and Retreat Garden, they were listed on the World Heritage List by UNESCO in February197 and October12000 respectively. ?

Suzhou has both the beauty of gardens and the victory of mountains and rivers. Temples, temples and famous temples are all over urban and rural areas; Cultural relics and historic sites complement each other. It is remembered by literati and poets and is famous at home and abroad for painting books. Lingyan, Tian Ping, Dongting Dongshan Xishan, Dengwei, Yushan and Yushan are all natural scenic spots. Modern tourist facilities such as Zhouzhuang, Guzhen, Suzhou Amusement Park and Taihu Lake Amusement Park have also attracted many domestic and foreign tourists. ?

There are 10 museums in Suzhou, and opera, folk customs, inscriptions, silk, Suzhou embroidery, coins, gardens and Buddhism have become new tourist hotspots. Another arts and crafts museum is under construction.

I went to the following places and made the following comments:

Humble Administrator's Garden: To the north of Lion Forest, from Garden Road to the north. I think this is the essence of Gusu Garden. Ticket price, 70 yuan. I remember there is a Suzhou Folk Museum on the way from Lion Grove to Humble Administrator's Garden. You can visit it on the way.

Lion Forest: In the name of rockery kingdom, there are countless lions, cubs, roaring lions, dancing lions, waking lions and sleeping lions squatting, playing or playing. The incredible whole mountain, like Kunlun Mountain, stands out vertically and horizontally, with lion peak as the main part, and the mountains are undulating and winding in all directions, which is worth seeing!

Tiger Hill: Known as "the first scene in Wuzhong". "Historical Records" contains: "Prince of Wu

Fuxi buried his father and Lu here. Three days later, another white tiger left, hence the name Tiger Hill. "Huqiu Temple was built in the Jin Dynasty, and Tang was renamed Wuqiu.

Honghu Temple in Song Dynasty, Yunyan Temple and Khufu Temple in Qing Dynasty.

In the evening, I suggest going to Guanqian Street, eating noodles from Huang Tianyuan and playing in Pingjiang Road Historic District. One day in downtown Suzhou is really not enough, and the road to success is also very good. There is a river in the middle of the road, which may be the only one in the country. Throughout Suzhou, there are still many praises for Pingjiang Road. This is renovated, but you can still find an old house with a history of hundreds of years. Some old men are fishing by the river, and old women are chatting in the bridge pavilion. On the way, I snapped pictures crazily and saw a boat carrying tourists in the river. And the beautiful MM sitting in the bow makes people's eyes pounding. A lot of times, I am finally left behind by the pace. The scenery is good, but it depends on the people. She doesn't like my LG very much and says I don't look like a young man. Haha, she prefers to see Qian Jie because there is shopping there.

If you have time, go to Lingyan Mountain and Tianping Mountain in Mudu. Play for a day.

Tip: The traffic in Suzhou is very good, and the map of Suzhou is also very clear and practical. As long as the north-south direction is clearly defined, there are many bus lines and good service.

You can bring special products-pine nut candy, rose melon seeds, shrimp paste, jujube paste biscuits, lard salty cakes, Taicang meat floss, musical instruments, Suzhou embroidery, silk, Biluochun tea, Suzhou fans, Taohuawu woodcut New Year pictures, lake pens and Taihu whitebait.

China has four major cuisines, Sulu, Yuechuan, with different tastes, which are called "sour in the east, spicy in the west, sweet in the south and salty in the north", while Jiangsu cuisine belongs to the "sweet in the south" flavor.

Su cuisine is characterized by strict selection of materials, fine workmanship, and different materials. It is good at stewing, stewing, steaming, roasting and frying in cooking, paying attention to mixing soup and maintaining its original flavor. The taste is light and sweet, and the color scheme is harmonious.

The famous Soviet-style specialty dishes are sweet and sour mandarin fish, shark's fin in clear soup, sesame oil eel paste, watermelon chicken, whole chicken with mother oil, Taihu water shield soup, emerald shrimp bucket, stewed lotus and so on.

Suzhou snacks are also world famous. Dried bean curd with thick sauce, pine nut candy, rose melon seeds, shrimp sauce, jujube paste biscuits and lard salted cakes are all very famous. You must try them.

The famous Suzhou-style restaurant is the first to promote Deyue Building and Songhe Building.

Deyuelou (No.27 eunuch lane) is characterized by changing menus in time due to different seasons. There is cherry juice meat in spring; In summer, there are steamed shad, maple hooves, steamed meat with lotus paste powder and so on. There are chestnuts, braised chicken and oily meat in autumn; In winter, there are eight treasure bones, boiled herring and assorted warm pots. The two of us ate a portion of Guangdong Tong chicken (50), a portion of braised bacon with white leaves (15) and a bottle of Budweiser beer (10), which cost 75 yuan. The waiter smiled at the checkout, probably because we ordered less, haha! ! !

Songhelou (Guanqian Street 14 1) was built in the Qianlong period of Qing Dynasty, and has a history of more than 200 years. It is the representative of traditional Su cuisine. Sweet and sour mandarin fish, snail shrimp, braised pork and tofu are the specialties of this restaurant. There is nothing to eat because there is no appointment. I will definitely try it next time I have a chance.

At present, the most popular restaurants in Suzhou are Tianzhu, Xiangyun, Runji, Tsinghua, Nankai and so on. These "fashion favorites" are more reasonable in price, first-class in service and more elegant in environment than "old brands" such as Deyue Building and Songhe Building.

The main food streets in Suzhou are eunuch lane, shiquan street, bachelor street, Fenghuang street, Ganjiang road and Shilu Jinmen commercial city food street. But there are too many, and the choices are not so good.

Suzhou is the best place. Four-star and five-star hotels can't afford to stay, but I personally don't think it is necessary. Now the economy hotel is developing well, the room price is generally between 100-200 yuan, and there are no restaurants and other facilities, but it has given us more tangible benefits! But the hotel conditions that are too cheap are often unsatisfactory. When I go to Suzhou, I will choose a place near the garden scenic spot. One is safety and the other is the surrounding environment. Feel the atmosphere of old Suzhou. The Jiahe Business Hotel on Garden Road where I live is worth recommending, especially when I get up in the morning and stand on Garden Road. But I have to get up early. Better get up before 6 o'clock. Haha, lazy, forget it, haha! The key to choosing hotel accommodation is to see if he has lobby and room bathroom facilities. This is my experience of traveling for many years. Main road, main road, expensive, noisy room.

Transportation: Shanghai Hongqiao Airport and Pudong Airport have direct buses to Suzhou, and the fares are 50 yuan and 80 yuan respectively. You can also take a train or bus from Shanghai, preferably by train, every 20 minutes, and it takes 40 minutes to get there. But going to the airport at night costs a lot of money. Jianyi can arrive in Suzhou in the afternoon. Because it is too late, there will be no airport bus. If you take a taxi to the railway station, it will cost you at least 300 yuan.

Play: Suzhou has opened a tourist bus, which is divided into east and west lines. The eastern line passes through the railway station, North Temple Tower, East Garden, Lion Forest, Humble Administrator's Garden and Guanqian Street, and the western line passes through the railway station, Tiger Hill, Xiyuan, Hanshan Temple, Liuyuan, Shantang Street and Panmen. The fare is ordinary car 1 yuan, air-conditioned car in 2 yuan. In addition, you can take a taxi,1from 0 yuan (3 kilometers), or rent a bicycle to play. Tricycle is not recommended, it is extremely expensive.

Tickets: Tickets for Suzhou scenic spots fluctuate up and down in 50 yuan, with peak season and off-season.

Shopping: Renmin Road and Guanqian Street are places that can be visited in urban areas, where you can buy freshly baked hair cakes and pine nut candy from Daoxiang Village, jujube paste cakes and dried bean curd from Ye Shouhe, rice cakes from Huang Tianyuan, brown sugar and shortcakes from Caizhizhai.

Note: 1. Many people recommend a day trip or hotel at the exit of the railway station or bus station. Don't worry about it, as long as you have a little hesitation, he will haunt you for a long time! Once successful, contribute kickbacks! Most of the hotels they recommend are dirty and messy. Otherwise, he will recommend you to go, and there is no rebate. Remember: what they say is good, and what they say is definitely bad, which is reverse thinking.

It is best not to take a tricycle in Suzhou, and never listen to places with extremely low fares recommended by foreign drivers. Not to mention that those places are not fun, drivers can also get kickbacks from your contributions. Remember: what they say is good, and what they say is definitely bad, which is reverse thinking. Sometimes it's funny. I heard a rickshaw driver tell a little girl that the most interesting place in Suzhou is the water town folk garden, especially the cockfighting performance. Dizzy! ! !

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, and some are in front of the exhibition. The best sweets and cakes are Caizhizhai, Daoxiang Village and Yeshou River, all in Guanqian Street. Silk is recommended to be bought in big stores, but scalpers, drivers and rickshaws are not recommended. If 200 yuan buys it, it may only be worth 20 yuan! ! !

6, go out, don't be unhappy with your companions because of some small things, ask more directions, prepare more, it doesn't matter if you are bored, just be happy and be free! Be sure to believe in your ability and travel by yourself! This is because I had it, and I regret it a little. After all, it is fun to come out to play, and there is no need to compete with friends for trifles.
