In the evening, the canals were very quiet, without the usual streams, and the boatmen who had been busy for a year might have gone home for the New Year [Fangfang]
Came on April 15, 2019. The ancient canal cruise is a highly recommended excursion project in Suzhou. Suzhou has an honor of "China's only", that is, it is the only city in China that has not been moved since its establishment. According to legend, since Wu Zixu built Helv City, the size and location of this city have remained basically unchanged, which is also rare in the world. The current ancient canal has always been the moat of Suzhou City. The tour of the ancient canal starts at 17:30 every evening. Board the ship from Xinshiqiao Pier. The ship will start when it is full. The boat first drove north to Xumen and turned around, then drove along the ancient canal to Shemen, and then returned to Xinshiqiao Wharf. The whole process took more than 1 hour. Sitting on the boat to enjoy the scenery along the coast, the staff on the boat will introduce you to some important scenic spots and related allusions, which can help visitors deepen their understanding of the historical heritage of Suzhou City. In addition, there is a Suzhou Pingtan show on the cruise, which is authentic.
Today is a sunny day, warm sun, sunny canal walk... [Celebrate] [Celebrate] [Celebrate]
Daytime moats boating frequent, the night more than a few minutes of quiet canal, this Suzhou city straddled river, as if to speak, shallow and low-level squatting of the story and legend of the millennium!
