Scenic spot introduction:

Suzhou Zhenchuan Garden, formerly known as Dongdaqiao Park, was moved from the original Jintong Lane to commemorate Gui Youguang, a famous essayist and anti-Japanese hero in the Ming Dynasty. Gui Youguang (1507-1571), also known as Xifu, was known as Mr. Zhenchuan. Because of his outstanding literary achievements, he was also called "the first in Mingwen". The beautiful Zhenchuan Garden is a good place for Kunshan citizens to relax on weekdays, and many older generations have a deep impression of Gui Youguang, especially the original tomb area, which once became a hide-and-seek place for children. Today, this memorial place in the center of Kunshan is more of a reverence and memory for the ancestors, as well as a cherishment of today's life.

Attractions distribution:

Zhenchuan Garden is located on the west side of Zhenchuan Bridge in the center of Kunshan, covering an area of ​​about 4 acres. The park is very green, with commemorative landscapes such as Gui Youguang's tomb, Gui Youguang stone statue, and Imperial Japanese Pavilion. There is a Zhenchuan Garden Pier in the southwest corner for tourists to board boats to explore the Lou River. Every year during the Qingming Festival, descendants come here to worship their ancestors, and many citizens also come to pay their respects.
