Out of Panru Lane, after two turns south, then walk on the Pingjiang Road. Here is the old streets of Suzhou to save the layout of buildings and watercourses is relatively good location, most residents on both sides of the river Lanes build a single listen to these names: Chuan-fang Lane, East huaqiao Lane, West Huaqiao Lane, large willow Lane, Lilac Lane, then give you a different feeling. Hangzhou Pseudostellaria Lane is said to be Lu poem "small building to listen to rain overnight, selling Shenxiang Ming Heng Fa Chuen" in describing the old haunt, I do not know where Lilac Lane, whether it is borrowed from the poetry of surname of Li Jing: Bluebird does not pass outside the letter of clouds, clove empty knot in the rain melancholy. Perhaps, here is the name Lane who also helped Shu Ting gave birth to "the same as a clove, the knot with Chouyuan girl." In any case, this beautiful flower, beautiful people, and beautiful names, and only in the south of the alley, will be so integrated sound natural.
Lanes on both sides is also still scattered with a few scattered Jiuzai and Park, such as the half-park, coupled Park, and the like, but we did not go looking for trouble. Walk slowly in the Rain Lane in the line, casually taking pictures there will be no rush of visitors hinder your line of sight, and no shops on both sides of the gracious greeting. They only focus on their lives, and we revel in this old people's breath in the Wu. South of the town, such as Zhejiang Nanxun, Xitang, Wuzhen, Suzhou, Tongli, Zhouzhuang, we have visited, but always felt was lacking a true, multi-layers of the diaphragm, although they are claiming to be the propaganda "living town" in. But I can not help but think that is nothing but rely on manpower and linger only. Only here, only vaguely a little "live" appearance. Lion Grove in the piece of Qianlong's imperial plaque is actually very relevant for the evaluation of right here, only used to seeing flowers Whispering alley may not be rare appreciation of the emperor, while the emperor will only leave the water between the rocks to find his so-called "true interest, "see the true situation in this insipid taste, hand, unable to understand the.
Pingjiang Road junction of the old atmosphere screeching halt in the go-getters, a go-getters in Suzhou Road will cut off the water clock, the road traffic has also reminded us that there has been no return to the past days had Gusu. We are ready never been to the garden to the two embarked on: Nets Garden and Canglang Ting. Master of the Nets Garden in Suzhou is not included among the four major gardens, Professor Chen Congzhou but its highly of Canada, that is a very small garden. Advised to move large garden view, small garden should wait and see, Nets Garden's beauty is in the "little has pavilion also look good," "look good," the word Shuji was the carry on. Nets Garden can be broadly divided into two regions, one for the living building, one for garden rockery, layout and Hangzhou, Hu Xueyan's former residence is very similar, but the latter his best extravagant, Shu no leisurely and carefree mood, which makes like a treasure, which they is contrary to the garden "always focussed on landscapes," the original intent, which Gaoxia not a thousand miles.
In the Nets Garden wandering a long time, consuming countless films, we are ready to leave to today's final destination, Canglang Ting. Holding one-year-old Suzhou map, I took my wife walk through the alleys in Suzhou, actually a little detour to go no more. Wife jokingly says I must have spent a past life in Suzhou, if this is the case, but added Sanshengyouxing of.
Canglang Ting garden in Suzhou, the oldest and also the most humanistic accumulation of thick, which crafted the whole there is no other garden, but their own Yigucanggu the air. To Canglang Ting, when the weather has changed suddenly, just when the Nets Garden oblique hint of rain in the twilight of gap exposed at the moment is completely gone, the sky Clouds in the clouds, rain has suddenly increased. Promenade at the end of the booth we sat in rain. Ting Su Shun-qin wall of the "Canglang Ting mind," Way back then the poet, "the table boat, pieces of towel in the past", can not help but have a "track and the wolves away, hearts as Ichthyornis idle" state of mind.
Rain receded, and we boarded the park's highest point, but also the entire garden center: see the mountains floor. Lean on a railing and hope, where there any mountains to see, saw dense roof. Suzi year here in the United States would like to search for the feeling of urban forests, today we have to face the mountains are the city's reality. Thin to listen to, it seems that this is still a force outside of the resident, used to be called "the world famous monk accounted for more", it now appears, saying it was "beautiful city accounted for more than soldiers," it seems good. See here, the friends went to West Lake in Hangzhou in the bar ahead of the game.
Back to the hotel, but 5 am, his wife of about a classmate to join us for dinner, the election is the view of Front Street's "Kawabuku floor," It is said and Hangzhou Kawabuku pot is like family. Hotel layout like the tea house in Hangzhou, is doing well. Be able to gain a firm foothold in Suzhou Sichuan does not seem easy, it should be and the local taste has been compromised, after serving a test, as expected. What to eat has been quite forgotten, only remember blindly "Crab tofu" delicious smoother and, as a relatively catchy dish. After dinner, each disperse Guanqian Street originally intended to stroll the night market, but was blocking the travel was heavy rain, only cable gave up.
