Why not visit the neighboring small town CITY WALK when Suzhou is too crowded?

Changzhou, also known as Dragon City, why not take a trip to Dragon City in the Year of the Dragon? Picture 1-3, Hongmei Park. The number one garden in Changzhou, with cultural relics such as Hongmei Pavilion and Wenbi Tower. It is the season when the red plum blossoms are in full bloom, and you can take as many photos as you like without reservation, no admission fee, and no crowds! Picture 4-5, Qingguo Alley. The number one alley of scholars in the south of the Yangtze River, this alley of just over 300 meters has produced more than 100 scholars! The preservation of old buildings is also quite good, with old houses and small courtyards. Take a walk and explore the cultural veins of this geomantic treasure. Picture 6-8, Changzhou Museum. Compared to the Suzhou Museum, the Changzhou Museum is not large in size, and there are not many long-term exhibitions, but there are still many interesting things to see. In the Year of the Dragon, it's also interesting to look for the dragon brick in the Dragon City Museum. Picture 9-11, when you come to Changzhou, you must visit the Tenghua Old Hall, now also known as the Su Dongpo Memorial Hall, where Su Dongpo spent the last part of his life. The courtyard is small but quaint, with wisteria, plum blossoms, and a Song dynasty well. Spend some quiet time here and reflect on the ups and downs of Su Dongpo's life and his spirit, and you are sure to gain some insight. There is also a large area of old houses near the memorial hall, which you can also visit if you have time. Picture 12-13, how can you not stroll through the local old communities at citywalk? Qingliang New Village, Worker's New Village, and Hongmei New Village contain the most authentic local life and hide countless gourmet eateries. Wander through the alleys, dine in the restaurants, stop and go, and try living a day as a local in Changzhou.
