\"\u540c\u91cc\u6c34\u90f7\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u540c\u91cc\u6c34\u90f7<\/strong> initially called Futu (meaning a fertile land), is a well-preserved water town\u00a0located on the\u00a0outskirts of Suzhou,\u00a0Shanghai. With a history\u00a0of more than 1000 years, the town\u00a0has recently become a\u00a0tourist attraction center with its main attraction sites being\u00a0canals.<\/p>\n

The town is approximately 24 square miles and has an estimated population of about 33 thousand residents. True to its reputation, this water town is quite a fantastic travel destination ideal for adventurous activities and holidays with an ultimate traditional Chinese’s cultural experience.<\/p>\n

With its network of waterways and lakes, Tongli town was initially inaccessible, and therefore, it never went through the devastating war experience\u00a0that other places\u00a0faced. As a result, several of its ancient buildings are still conserved. These old structures include temples, several scenic stone bridges, houses and private gardens.<\/p>\n

Some of the Tourist Attractions you shouldn’t miss when visiting Tongli town include:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Garden-Style buildings<\/strong>
\nMost of the famous gardens in Tongli exhibit a perfect combination of artistic gardens and practical residences. These structures include the Jiayin hall, the Chongben hall, and the Tuisi garden.<\/p>\n

The fascinating ancient stone bridges<\/strong>
\nWhile this water town is well known for its river-lanes and streets, it also houses numerous old stone bridges that were built in various dynasties.<\/p>\n

The hollow and stone-paved lanes\u00a0<\/strong>
\nTongli town has several long and narrow roads, some of which are over 300 meters long. Therefore, you can take a walk down the streets for a better view.<\/p>\n

The beautiful ancient streets<\/strong>
\nThe 160-meter long road of Mingqing is a stone-paved street that preserves its original Qing and Ming dynasties styles. Some of the famous old streets here include the Sanyuan, Xinzhen, Zhuxing, Fuguan among others.<\/p>\n

Besides Tongli being rich with rivers and bridges, it has ancient architectural clusters from the Ming and the Qing dynasties that are so attractive.
