    I'm only planning a one-day trip, round trip from Shanghai. I'm not sure where to go or what the must-sees are. I'd love to try boating and see the night views. I've been looking at guides for two days and my head is spinning!

      Humble Administrator's Garden – Suzhou Museum – Pingjiang Road – Xiyuan Temple/Tiger Hill – Shantang Street (for a night tour). You need to book the Suzhou Museum (likely referring to the West Branch if booking is stressed) in advance. This itinerary is quite packed, so feel free to adjust it to your liking.

        Hello, sorry to bother you. I'm planning to take my parents to Suzhou, but they have mobility issues and will need a wheelchair. Could you recommend some wheelchair-friendly places?

          Suzhou's public facilities are quite good, and most places have accessible routes. The Humble Administrator's Garden, Lion Grove Garden, Pingjiang Road, and Jinji Lake should be fine. However, I'd advise avoiding public holidays as the attractions get extremely crowded.

            Hey dear, any recommendations for trendy garden hotels in Suzhou? Looking for something picturesque and great for photos – price isn't an issue.

              You could check out Scholar Inn Pingjiang Fu, Pingjiang Lodge, Nanlin Hotel, or Pan Pacific Suzhou.

                Hey sis, I'm taking my kid for a three-day, two-night trip. We just want to wander around, take some photos, eat good food, and avoid crowded spots. Any suggestions?

                  In that case, the Suzhou Museum West Branch is great for kids. There are also many museums downtown, you can stroll through the alleys, do a city walk, and Jinji Lake is suitable. These are all good options. Most of the best food is concentrated in the city center.

                    Hi, I'll be arriving at Suzhou Station at 5 PM on April 17th and leaving at 1 PM on the 19th. I'm traveling with my mom. Could you recommend some must-visit places? We're staying on Dongguan Street. Thanks!

                      Dongguan Street in Yangzhou, you mean? For Suzhou, I'd recommend: Humble Administrator's Garden, Lion Grove Garden, Lingering Garden, Xiyuan Temple, Shuangta Market, Pingjiang Road, and Shantang Street. These are all suitable.
