    Start · Entrance
  2. Lanxue Hall
    about 120 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
    Enter the garden and reach the main hall in the east, Lanxue Tang. Why this route: named after Li Bai's line "clear wind scatters orchid snow"; the rockery "Zhuiyun Feng" stands before it.
  3. Furong Pavilion
    about 40 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
    View the Furong Xie, a pavilion on three sides of water. Why this route: "furong" means lotus; best for lotus viewing in summer.
  4. Yuanxiang Hall
    about 120 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
    Reach the central main hall, Yuanxiang Tang (a four-sided hall). Why this route: from Zhou Dunyi's "the fragrance travels far and grows ever fresher"; the garden's best viewpoint.
  5. Lotus Breeze Pavilion
    about 20 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
    Cross the zigzag bridge to the islet in the middle of the pond. Why this route: surrounded by water, the best place to feel the water-centered design.
  6. Xiaofeihong Bridge
    about 70 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
    View the covered bridge Xiaofeihong. Why this route: a rare covered bridge in Suzhou gardens, a model of borrowed and framed scenery.
  7. Jianshan Tower
    about 70 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
    Jianshan Lou sits on three sides of water; from upstairs you can borrow the reflection of Beisi Pagoda. Why this route: from the line "leisurely I see the southern hills"; the most famous example of borrowed scenery.
  8. Thirty-Six Mandarin Ducks Hall
    about 40 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
    Enter the western section and reach its main hall. Why this route: blue-and-white glass windows; mandarin ducks are kept in the pond in front.
  9. Whom to Sit With Pavilion
    about 20 m (straight line) from the previous stop · Sight
    Tour the fan-shaped xuan and Liuting Ge, then exit by the north gate (near the Suzhou Museum). Why this route: from Su Shi's "Who shares my seat? The bright moon and the clear wind, and I" and Li Shangyin's rain-listening poem.
