After a 15 hour overnight train ride from Xi'an which SUCKED (we're talking 6 to an open cabin, the nastiest bathroom you can imagine, and smells of weird Chinese food), we made it to Suzhou titled "The Venice of China." Well it was nowhere near Venice, but it did have some pretty canals and the gardens were terrific. The exhibited Chinese feng shui and had lots of temples with antique Chinese furniture in them - I loved the decor and now want to build a temple garden in my backyard (when I have one!)
We tried to go out and ended up in a Brothel - oops. We were with some people from our group and went to the bar that looked the most packed, but we didn't realize it was filled with girls only. After a quick drink, we made it back to the hotel.
Suzhou was a pleasant surprise and a wonderful retreat from the chaos of China.
