- This tour was very satisfying. I loved the gardens there in Suzhou very much. They were so different from the architectures today. The paintings, arts and philosophy of ancient Chinese were also quite different from ours. I was especially interested in the bridges for I thought bridges were where some romance happens, hah, do you agree? Well, finally I want to thank the guide and the driver for their kindness as well as professionals. Without you we would never appreciate the beauty of Suzhou so thoroughly. You did a very good job.

- I have heard that China has many unique gardens of ancient styles, and I was told that Suzhou and Hangzhou were paradise on earth. To check them, I chose this one day tour to Suzhou with China travel depot. I dare say that they are true. And I was very grateful to our guide. It was her who told us so many stories of the city and gave us good advice for garden appreciating and food choosing. This was really a pleasant trip for me and my family.
