Your day with us

Discover picturesque Chinese towns: Suzhou, with its own unique characteristics. Founded around 600 BC, Suzhou is one of the oldest settlements in the Yangtze basin. Often referred to as the "Venice of the East," its neighborhoods and interconnected waterways are truly a masterpiece. Suzhou was one of the few cities in China to escape the ravages of the Cultural Revolution, its celebrated gardens miraculously surviving largely intact. Visit the Master of Nets Garden, the Silk Embroidery Research Institute, the Grand Canal, and a silk factory while in Suzhou.

After lunch we will move to a 900-year-old water village — a stone route with a river flowing along it. Bridges across the river, houses with white walls and black roofs built along the stone road, locals (especially the old) walking leisurely: the scene here shows a traditional Suzhou local life. After the Suzhou one-day tour, we bring you back to your hotel in Shanghai.
