Stroll along Putuoshan Road where Suzhou's zen poetry comes alive! Named after the sacred Buddhist mountain, this tranquil path is lined with phoenix trees and dotted with whitewashed houses featuring iconic Jiangnan eaves. Come at dawn to hear birdsongs mingling with Hanshan Temple's bell, or at dusk when cobblestones glow golden. Hidden gems like artisan studios and teahouses invite you to sip Biluochun tea while Pingtan opera's melodic dialects transport you to old Suzhou.
