🔥🔥🔥Small tips: The sightseeing painting boat online booking discount 5 yuan (can be booked in advance) In addition, the boat of Shantang Street is electric, if you prefer to return to simplicity, you can choose the hand-rowing boat of Pingjiang Road
Every time I go to Suzhou, I will go to Qilishantang. This time I choose to travel by boat. I have a different feeling. Overall, I am very happy. I feel that the price is relatively high. It is suitable for the elderly or inconvenient to walk. On the boat trip, people are in the middle of the painting.
I went during the May Day holiday. After buying a ticket, the child said that he didn't want to take a boat. After I went in and saw the boat, the child regretted it. It was a little sad because it was past 20:00 and I couldn't get on the boat. Walking and walking unexpectedly to the ancient stage pier, seeing that there were still people queuing for the boat, I also went up to take my luck. God, I sat on it, it was really beautiful, I also learned history, and the experience was very good.
How can I not do a cruise ship when I went to Qilishantang? The whole thing is about half an hour. Although the weather is still a bit cold now, there are really many people in Shangtang Street. The boat experience is not bad, and there is no need to queue.
It is still possible to see the scenery on the boat. It is mainly swaying. It is very pleasant to listen to the soft words of Miss Wu Xu. Miss sister is beautiful and gentle, which is a highlight of this journey. The tableware still needs to be improved. Some customizations are more suitable for the cabin. After all, the space is not large. It may be more refined for the plates. The portion can be less, or according to the number of people. The snacks are delicious and exquisite. Then unfortunately time passed quickly, when the boat was off at seven o'clock, Suzhou was not dark, but the lanterns had begun to light up one after another, if it was half an hour late, the experience on the boat would be better. The food tastes good, that is, a little more suitable for children to eat western food will be better, of course, it can be understood, after all, it is difficult to adjust. In short, I am very happy, it is still worth experiencing, especially there are old and small, so it is very good to enjoy the two hours of singing and cruise and Suzhou famous dishes independently. Otherwise, even if it is not a holiday weekend, it is also a crowded Shantang Street. I really think about going to listen to the singing, the restaurant, plus the cruise ship, it is quite scary.
The performance is very exciting, the environment is very beautiful, drinking tea, listening to the song, too comfortable! like very much! recommend!
It feels quite good. There is paradise, Suhang, Hangzhou West Lake, Suzhou Shantang, and another scenic spot with Baijuyi. It feels like it is destined with Baijuyi. Compared with other Jiangnan cities, Shantang Street is the most lively.
