Hangzhou and Suzhou are both called paradise. Who is better?

This is difficult to compare, it depends on what you compare. If the economy develops, Suzhou is more developed than Hangzhou and Nanjing, not only because Suzhou has been rich since ancient times, but also because Suzhou has introduced many foreign-funded enterprises in recent decades, so Suzhou's manufacturing industry has a certain influence in the country. After a large number of migrant workers came to Suzhou, they brought a lot of gdp to Suzhou, but in terms of comprehensive strength, Hangzhou is still a little stronger.

As we all know, going to Hangzhou and Suzhou are the two most famous tourist cities in the south of the Yangtze River. Both Hangzhou and Suzhou have developed economies. Since ancient times, it has been a land of plenty of fish and rice, so it is also considered that there are Suzhou and Hangzhou in the world. Although Hangzhou and Suzhou are not in the same province, the distance is very close, only about 150 km. So the traffic between the two places is more convenient. If people travel to Suzhou, they will often meet them.

I think it depends on how you compare. First of all, there is no doubt that the economic development of Suzhou is stronger than that of Hangzhou. Although Suzhou is only a prefecture-level city, its economic aggregate exceeds that of many provincial capitals. Even Nanjing, the capital of Jiangsu, is not as good as Suzhou. Suzhou's per capita gdp is also quite high, including disposable income. After all, it has been rich since ancient times, and there are many private enterprises. The strength of county-level cities below Suzhou should not be underestimated, while the gdp of Hangzhou is basically similar to that of Nanjing, but less than that of Suzhou.

So if we say the strength of the urban area, there is no doubt that Hangzhou is stronger than Suzhou. It can be said that Suzhou's economy is stronger than the county-level cities below, but the urban area does not have the visual sense of a big city. Compared with Nanjing, it is much smaller. As the capital city, Hangzhou is much better than Suzhou in science and education, medical care and urban construction, so Suzhou is not as good as Hangzhou in this respect. Of course, these two cities are both good tourist cities, with rich cultural and natural scenery.
