"Wuzhong customs, especially the Lantern Festival", Suzhou Lantern Festival has a long history, from ancient times to the present. As a typical representative of Suzhou Lantern Festival, the Guxumen Lantern Festival has been included in the Jiangsu Province Intangible Cultural Heritage Protection List since 2009, and has been successfully held for 23 sessions so far. This year, in conjunction with the 2025 "Intangible Cultural Heritage Celebrates the New Year - Ancient City Celebrates the New Year" National Main Venue Event and Suzhou City's extraordinary "Su" New Year Event, Canglang Street launched the "24th Guxumen Lantern Festival" series of activities. Several large-scale lantern groups made by national representative inheritor Wang Xiaowen and his team were lit up at 18:00 on the evening of January 23. Among them, the main lantern group with the theme of the Year of the Snake, "Auspicious Snake Good Year", is 15 meters wide and 3 meters high, installed on the site of the Guxumen Wengcheng; a group of lantern corridors, "Good Luck Corridor", is about 18 meters long and installed in front of the square near the cruise ship dock; there is also a small lantern group, 3 meters long and 4 meters wide, "Mooring Boat Lantern Shadow", which is placed on the south side of the square.

The scenery of the Humble Administrator&#39;s Garden is very nice. The garden layout is very interesting. You can see the scenery of the four seasons. There are too many people on May Day. It would be better to go there on ordinary days. The souvenirs in the store in the garden are also good, better than outside.

Hanshan Temple

Shantang Street was born and developed because of the river. It starts from Duseng Bridge in the south and ends at Tiger Hill in the north. It is about 3,600 meters long, about seven miles, so it is also called &quot;Qili Shantang&quot;. Qili Shantang Street is a stop to see the whole of Jiangnan. What was rare when I went there was that it was raining. I took a boat and slowly drifted to Hanshan Temple.

Lion Grove Garden(Shizilin Garden)

The Lion Forest is very fun, especially the rockery maze. After a few laps, it is not tired to play for a day and the hall is more luxurious than the Humble Administrator&rsquo;s Garden. There are many flowers and plants. There are stalls selling pastries. It is delicious and not expensive. It can also make fans on site.
