Overview

Suzhou's three classics in one day — the Lingering Garden, the leaning Tiger Hill Pagoda, and a 12-course Suzhou Imperial cuisine lunch.

About This Tour

A full-day classical Suzhou itinerary. Morning: Liu Yuan (Lingering Garden), one of the four most-famous gardens in China, known for its rockery 'Cloud-Capped Peak' and labyrinthine corridors. Continue to Tiger Hill (Huqiu), 'the must-see in Suzhou' per Su Dongpo — climb to the 1,000-year-old leaning Yunyan Pagoda (China's Pisa). Lunch is the highlight: a 12-course Suzhou Imperial banquet at Songhe Lou (founded 1757), Suzhou's oldest restaurant — including the squirrel mandarin fish, Wuxi-style spareribs, and white shrimp from Tai Lake. Afternoon: stroll through the Suzhou Silk Museum, learning the 4,700-year history of Chinese silk and watching live cocoon-reeling. Return to your hotel.
