Scenic spot introduction:
Suzhou Yiyuan takes the best features of other gardens in Suzhou and is unique in its landscape design. It is a paradise for citizens to calm down and nourish their souls in the bustling city. This garden was originally the site of Gu Wenbin's old residence of Wu Kuan, the minister of the Ming Dynasty in Ningshaotai Road, Zhejiang Province. In the old days, many famous people from the south of the Yangtze River came to gather together, and it became famous for a while. The "Yiyuan Qin Hui" is a unique culture here. After different dynasties and wars, the sound of the guqin, which has been silent for many years, has echoed in Yiyuan and continues to this day.Attractions distribution:
