#createwithtrip I took a short walk around the area that I live and I came upon this amazing area and then I realize that I will definitely have to come back with my camera to take some photos. this eventually turned out to an amazing experience of street photography I was able to take so many different pictures of people on the streets the boats sailing by on the canal and also so many people taking a walk having their exercise and it was A great experience for me. This is called the Pingmen gate and it is located at the gusu District in Suzhou China not so many people come here so there Isn’t a situation where you would have to many tourists but it was still very nice to be able to take some nice photos of the people walking by in the environment. #suzhou #awesomepic #createwithtrip #travelinspiration #travel #suzhoutravel #summervacation #urbanexplorer

The temple on top of the pingmen gate⛩

I had the opportunity to visit this location and this gate is called the the Pingmen gate and it is located immediately south of the Suzhou railway station. This is one of the ancient structures that still remain in China in Suzhou till this day. I was able to take the opportunity to climb this bridge because luckily for me the place that I stay is pretty close to this spot and I was able to take a 20 minute ride to this location. 🚀🚀 This location is right next to the suzhou canal so you can you see the different boats going by, you can also have a good view of the Suzhou railway station which I feel is really beautiful. Another thing that’s really good is the fact that there aren’t too many people at this location so the only few people that you see are the people who are taking a walk or exercising Which was why I was able to get the photos with no tourists in the background. #suzhou #visitsuzhou #scenicspotguide #travelinspiration #travelguide #travelchina #summervacation #awesomepic

The walls of Suzhou are not as magnificent as the walls of ancient capitals such as Nanjing and Beijing. However, in the history of China's urban wall construction, the Suzhou city wall has a unique position, that is, its gates are both water and land, which is the only one in China, and is a pioneering work of urban planning and construction. Northern Great Wall Xiong, South Panmenxiu. Compared with the Beijing city wall, the corner building, or the Zhengyangmen Arrow Towers domineering, Suzhous Panmen looks so delicate and delicate. All of this is thanks to the water, and it is thanks to the surrounding scenery. Perhaps this is what the ancients understand, and the hard bones in the gentle town can be worn out! Suzhou, a land of red dust, also blames future generations for accusing it as a city of drunkenness. Who told us that the ancients connected the weak water and the city gates with military defenses, and these water gates were built so beautifully. .
