Suzhou Day 2

This is Suzhou's Humble Adminstrator Park located just at the city's center 5 minutes away from BuXinJie. Total altogether there are more than 5 visitor's park like these in Suzhou alone. Although there is 1 called Le Yuan further away, but have a theme park and a lot of nice flower and historical sites to visit.

Apparently this park is created during 15xx AD during Qing Dynasty for a retired government servant. This park entrance fee is RMB70/pax and mind you, its quite big and long walk as well. Plenty of greenery, plenty of water, plenty of people, plenty of stones and bla bla bla. The picture behind me is a small little tea house create next to a pond of water lilies and ducks. Its design is according to a dragon and the house itself is similiar to dragon head. The roof tiles are dragon's scales and the body of the dragon is the walkway.

There are even some nice little cozy tea house smaller fitting only 2 person, which is for those days, concubines and ladies hanging around chatting and spending their time talking nonsense, just like what you see in those HK movies. Really like those scene i think...

By the time we are done walking in this park, it is almost 3pm and our legs are dead tired again. Sweat all over and sticky as well. We took tonnes of photos of this park, marvelous for nature lovers and good for exercise as well :) We then took a nice electric bicycle trishaw back to our hotel for our luggage. Nice feeling...Kekeke and we went to have a nice light McD meal with Ice Mocha just before we went to bus station to catch the bus back to ZJG.

It was a really nice feeling and nice adventure for traveling to Suzhou overall for the 2 days. We did enjoy it and we would certainly go back to there if there is chance again. Haven't been to all the parks yet, u know... :) Until then, Krazybananaz out! Ciao.
