【Humble Administrator's Garden】
The Humble Administrator's Garden is one of the four famous ancient gardens in
Suzhou. It is also the largest and most famous of the Suzhou gardens. It is
listed on the World Cultural Heritage List and is considered a classic Chinese
private garden. The Humble Administrator's Garden is a representative of
southern gardens. The whole garden is centered on water, surrounded by
mountains and rivers, with exquisite halls and pavilions, lush flowers and
trees, full of poetic and picturesque beauty, and has a strong Jiangnan water
town style. The garden is divided into three parts: east, middle and west. The
east garden is open and spacious, the middle garden is the essence of the
whole garden, and the west garden has exquisite buildings, each with its own
characteristics. The southern part of the garden is a residential area,
reflecting the typical multi-story residential structure of Jiangnan style.
There is also the Suzhou Garden Museum in the south of the garden, which is
the only garden-themed museum in China. The garden construction art of the
Humble Administrator's Garden is characterized by water, natural elegance,
scattered courtyards, and outstanding flowers and trees. The main attractions
available for sightseeing include Lanxue Hall, Hanqing Pavilion, Bonsai Garden
and many more. Strolling through the Humble Administrator's Garden, I believe
you will be amazed by the profoundness of Chinese classical garden art!
【Hanshan Temple】
Hanshan Temple is located in Gusu District, Suzhou City. It was originally
named "Miaoli Puming Pagoda" and belongs to the Linji school of Zen Buddhism.
During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, two eminent monks, Hanshan and
Xiqian, founded the Hanshan Temple. Over the past 1,000 years, Hanshan Temple
was destroyed by fire five times (some say seven times), and the last time it
was rebuilt was during the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty.
Historically, Hanshan Temple was one of the ten most famous temples in China.
There are many historical sites in the temple, including the stone inscription
of Zhang Ji's poem, stone statues of Hanshan and Shitou, and fragments of
inscriptions written by Wen Zhengming and Tang Yin.
【Shantang Street】
Shantang Street in Suzhou is a national AAAA-level facility and a famous
historical and cultural street in China. It was once one of the most developed
commercial and cultural streets in China during the Ming and Qing dynasties
and is known as "the first ancient street in China."
