Tongli town, situated on the outskirts of Suzhou city, is famous for its elaborate canal system, earning it the moniker ‘Venice of the East’. It preserves many characteristics of a traditional Wu region town, including petite bridges, flowing streams, white walls, and black tiled roofs.
The town is segmented into seven small islands by 15 canals, arranged in a pattern resembling the Chinese character ‘川‘, and intricately linked by 49 historic bridges.
Despite visiting Tongli hundreds of times, its charm has not worn thin for me. I trust you, too, will appreciate its serenity and distinctiveness.
