Xianqian Street

Step into Xianqian Street and be transported to old Suzhou! This historic lane is lined with charming grey-brick buildings housing traditional tea houses and handicraft shops. Come at dawn to watch locals sipping Biluochun tea while playing chess - the aroma of fresh steamed buns from street vendors will lead you to the famous 'Dumb Shengjian' (mute pan-fried buns), whose crispy skin and juicy fillings are legendary!
