TITLE: SQUALOR ALLEY LOCATION: SUZHOU MISSION: TAKE A RIDE ON THE CANAL DATE: 2009-07-19 We got recommendations for lunch at the reception in the hotel but missed slightly the street where we were going. Instead, we ended up on the parallel street which seemed to be used as a garbage dump. Seriously disgusting. The afternoon was spent just exploring the city and enjoying the nice weather. In the evening we went on a cruise around the city centre with one of the many boats. The cruise ended close to Shantang Avenue so we ended the night with another stroll around the area. I love the lights, the cobblestone roads, the low houses and the canals. The atmosphere is amazing without feeling tacky. Not many (western) tourists either. |
