Suzhou Highlights - That is a very interesting tour to see how people used to live (and still live) in this city with their houses located along the canals. You will travel on a boat through Shantang Street (Shantang canal) and will see that some of the houses look run down, especially in the part that is not preserved for the tourists, but that gives you a good impression of the life in the city.
