Xian Chengdu Hangzhou Suzhou Shanghai Trip
April 13, 2008. This morning was free for the group. After the 12-day tour in China, people had been a little bit tired. After the simple lunch, we drove to Suzhou. Suzhou is a city of silk, and famous for its private gardens. Its unique gardens are listed as world cultural heritage by UNESCO. The Hangzhou-Suzhou 160-km drive was smooth and comfortable due to the quality highway and the fine weather in spring. Suzhou No. 1 Silk Factory was today' highlight. People bought a lot from the factory. The hotel we used in Suzhou was a new hotel - Holiday Inn Suzhou. People were happy that next to the hotel there was a supermarket - Darun Youfa.
