The national college entrance examination has come to end, and it is a good time for graduates to travel around to relax after three years of intense study. Zhouzhuang, a famous water town in Suzhou city, features crisscrossing water lanes, ancient bridges, and buildings built on and along the rivers. The town's profound culture, well preserved ancient residential houses and elegant water views will help students enjoy a cool and leisurely summer.

Water view

Zhouzhuang allows tourists to visit the ancient town by boat. One can sit leisurely in the boat, drink a cup of tea and appreciate the glamorous scenery, enjoying a rare and carefree mood.

Leisure time

Students can have a relaxing experience in Zhouzhuang, reading a book at Maokong book bar, sipping a coffee at Starbucks or tasting a glass of wine in the wine bar.

Holiday resort

Nanhuwan holiday resort is a paradise-like place in Zhouzhuang away from the city's hustle and bustle. One can breathe in fresh air in the morning, enjoy the sunshine and cool breeze in the afternoon and get a good sleep at night.

Bar street

The houses in the bar street feature Chinese garden style architecture outside and Western style decorations inside, combining modern and traditional elements. The gloomy lamplight and dim lantern light create a hazy atmosphere.

In the hot summer, Zhouzhuang, with slow-flowing rivers, swaying willow branches and rotating windmills, will surely serve as a leisure resort that can take away pressure and summer heat.
