Now that we are at Pingjiang Road, let’s take a look at the Xiangmen ancient city wall!

Xiangmen (xiàng mén) is located in the east of the ancient city of Suzhou, Jiangsu Province. King Helu of Wu once ordered swordsmith Gan Jiang to set up a furnace here to forge swords, so it was named Gan Jiang Gate, Jiang Gate, and Jiang Gate. Pingjiang Road Pedestrian Street is a popular check-in spot, and tourists have been coming in an endless stream. Why not also visit the Xiangmen Ancient City Wall? 🌟Highlights: Although the total length of the city wall is only 725.8 meters, it starts from Xiangmen Bridge in the south, ends at Cou Garden in the north, faces the moat in the east, and connects to Pingjiang Historical District in the west. There is also a "Suzhou City Wall Museum" under the city wall. You can also take a boat at the cruise ship pier to roam on both sides of the ancient canal. The overall playability is very high. In front of the city wall, the Cangjie Yanlord Commercial Center has been newly built. The fusion of history and modernity is vividly reflected here~ 🕙Business hours: Daily 6:00am - 10:00pm The lights are on from 6:00 to 8:30 in the evening, and there are light shows during the festival. 💰Average consumption: The entire city wall is free. If you want to visit the lotus garden next to it, the ticket costs 20 yuan. There is a discounted price of only 10 yuan during the Spring Festival holiday. Because it was the fifth day of the Chinese New Year, we encountered a lion dance team and huge Spring Festival couplets were hung in front of the city wall. During the Spring Festival, you can climb the city wall to enjoy the charm of this historical and cultural city while embracing modern fashion trends. In summer, the city wall will be covered with ivy, and it will have a completely different look!
