Overview
A full day in Suzhou and Tongli with your own guide and driver.

Lunch in Tongli, then the afternoon in the water town — its canals, bridges and the Retreat & Reflection Garden, built by a dismissed official in the 1880s. Private vehicle throughout, hotel pick-up and drop-off in Shanghai, all entrance tickets included. Pace and stops can be adjusted on the day.

Tongli TownAfter a peaceful morning, venture to the ancient water town of Tongli, a short drive from Suzhou. This 1,000-year-old town is a picturesque maze of canals, arched stone bridges, and preserved Ming and Qing dynasty buildings. Stroll along the cobblestone streets and enjoy the serene atmosphere of this well-preserved gem. Explore the Retreat and Reflection Garden, another UNESCO-listed site, where intricate architecture and tranquil water features provide a glimpse into the life of a wealthy scholar. Glide along the canals on a traditional wooden boat, soaking in views of charming waterfront homes and vibrant local life.

Humble Administrator's GardenBegin your day at the Humble Administrator’s Garden, the largest and most renowned of Suzhou’s classical gardens, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built in the 16th century during the Ming Dynasty, this garden is a masterpiece of landscape design, combining pavilions, ponds, bridges, and exquisite flora into a harmonious haven. As you meander through its winding pathways, your guide will share the story of its creator, a retired official seeking peace in a turbulent era. Marvel at the poetic names of its features, such as the "To Whom Do I Sit Pavilion" and the "Hall of Distance Fragrance", which embody the deep connection between nature and art in traditional Chinese culture.
