In the coming months, Suzhou can be considered the pinnacle of autumn travel

Speaking of autumn scenery, the autumn colors of Suzhou gardens are unparalleled. I visited Suzhou for two days last autumn and was deeply impressed by the traditional aesthetics of our ancestors. Every brick and tile, every step a scene, each meticulously crafted composition forms a framed view that outlines a stunning picture, making you fall in love at first sight. The combination of gardens and autumn scenery is what I consider the pinnacle; experiencing the romance of autumn in such a beautiful environment is truly extraordinary. 📜 Suzhou Autumn Tour Route DAY 1: Humble Administrator's Garden → Wu Zuoren Art Museum → Master of the Nets Garden → Xiyuan Temple → Shantang Street DAY 2: Tiger Hill → Yiyuan Garden → Huanxiu Villa → Art Garden → Lingering Garden 📸 Recommended Photo Spots Humble Administrator's Garden: The autumn scenery of the Humble Administrator's Garden is unique. It is recommended to go early in the morning when there are fewer people, allowing for better appreciation of the garden's beauty. Wu Zuoren Art Museum: The magical spot for the reflection of the twin towers in the fish pond is here. Master of the Nets Garden: A small and exquisite garden, the autumn scenery is poetic and picturesque, with the buildings and natural landscapes perfectly integrated. Xiyuan Temple: Besides petting cats and eating vegetarian noodles, the ginkgo leaves covering the ground in autumn are also beautiful. Shantang Street: A must-visit in Suzhou, the blue-toned photos taken here are stunning, reminiscent of the prosperous Tang Dynasty nights in Jiangnan. Tiger Hill: In autumn, the redwoods cover the slopes, showcasing the aesthetics of our ancestors, and with the warm sunset, the autumn scenery is truly breathtaking. Yiyuan Garden: With a unique garden style, in autumn you can capture beautiful scenes of pomegranates and cats together. Huanxiu Villa: The landscape of Jiangnan gardens, with two large red maples paired with white walls and black tiles, adds to the serene and clear atmosphere. Art Garden: Although small, it is rich in layers, with a scene at every step. The circular archway paired with the red maple autumn colors is unparalleled. Lingering Garden: In addition to the century-old ginkgo, the autumn maple forest on the back hill is also stunning, with framed views at every step showcasing the beauty of Chinese style. 📝 Suzhou Autumn Tips Best Viewing Period: The red maples start to change color in early November, turning fully red by the end of November. Early December is the best viewing period; the ginkgo viewing period is relatively short, usually concentrated at the end of November and early December. Ticket Booking: You can purchase tickets in advance to enter the garden. To capture beautiful scenes without people, go early and queue up. Entering with the first batch when the garden opens allows for worry-free photography.
