The lush green waters are truly breathtaking, with lake embankments similar to those in West Lake, including Yue Embankment and Fan Embankment, giving it a feel of a 'Little West Lake'. Basic Introduction: Shihu is located in the Shihu Lakeside Scenic Area of Wuzhong District, Suzhou, a tributary of Taihu Lake. In ancient times, many literati and poets visited, such as Lu You, Yang Wanli, and the Shihu resident Fan Chengda. How to Enter and Exit the Scenic Area: There are three gates to Shihu: the west gate, east gate, and south gate. If you are driving, you can park at the east gate and south gate. The west gate is often congested and lacks parking. The east gate is the main entrance, and the south gate is less crowded with convenient parking. For those not driving, you can take subway line 3 to Shihu North Station. The scenic area is quite large, and you can take a scenic area bus tour, although the frequency is not high. Alternatively, you can rent electric bikes or bicycles for sightseeing. About Dining: The west gate has small vendors, the east gate has local Suzhou restaurants to try, and the south gate has only one cafe. You can also choose to dine in the Suzhou city area, which is not too far away. 📝Note tips: The newly renovated Guolao Street in the north of the scenic area is not fully open yet, so don't miss out. Opposite the west gate is the Shangfangshan National Forest Park, which is worth a visit if you have time.
