I'm amazed by your energy and just how you guys see, experience, and appreciate the different culture with really no presumptive good or bad - just showing the world what you see through your eyes, which I believe is truly what traveling and getting to know the world is all about. Thank you guys so much for doing so and happy and safe travelling!!
Thank you very much. We really appreciate your kind words. We feel that same way that you do, travel is about exploring the world and getting to know more about other countries and their way of life. It's a wonderful privilege that we never take for granted.
What a lovely and well presented n edited video on Suzhou! I visited Suzhou back in 2003. Thank you very much for bringing me back such precious memories ❤❤❤❤👍
Moving to Suzhou beginning February, this video just summed up how my great life will be. Thank you so much for the video. The silk factory I can not wait to visit.
@@margaritakaliviotis2922 generally very good.onky in terms of standard of living cos u r renting a apartment in expat community and there's plenty of places where u can hang around after work and enjoy.penty of international schools also in suzhou so overall u can save about 50% ,of your income.you try to cook as much as possible
Great video!! We live and make videos for our channel here and we can sefely say you have covered all the fundamentals. Pingjiang and Mudu never get old!!
I really want to visit Suzhou someday ! My former co-worker(Japanese), who had visited Suzhou also praised a lot on the beauty of Suzhou (and tastiness of Suzhou noodle).
What a thorough video of Suzhou! Thank you for your enthusiasm & vast highlights of this great city. Wishing you both continued joy, success & health. 🇺🇸❤️🇨🇳
That’s amazing truly. I remember when I was in primary we indeed kept silk worm as pets. On the bench at the back of the classroom we have our own leaves which resides our worms. Classmates who planted mulberry contributed more leaves. However we had no idea what to do with them when they form cocoon. Lol what a happy time
It’s an amazing city I enjoyed visiting Suzhou, Hangzhou, Beijing, Shanghai and the Great Wall in 2014. My favourite is Suzhou. Great video, Thanks for sharing.👍👍
Thanks for watching! Suzhou really is amazing isn't it. It sounds like you've seen a lot of China. The Great Wall certainly lives up to the hype. I loved visiting it too.
Another great video. You always give the best information. I really liked the night vibe and that water show. I have a new travel channel and could use any support!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your comment and I am so glad you enjoy the information. We just love China at night. I feel that is when the cities really do come alive. I will check out your channel too!
Visited in 2014 for 7 days, so quiet, no rickshaw rides, no western food, water gardens had only a few locals walking around and we met very few other tourists, this video is excellent in showing the changes in China. We did also visit Hangzhou, and stayed at the west lake, same thing, the walk around the lake was wonderful, revisited 2018 and the beauty of the lake walk has been spoiled by the use of electric cars using the lovely lakeside walkways to transport tourist quickly around the sights, also lots of western food restaurants, all with english menu but we found the staff had no idea what they were serving so most times you were lucky to get the dish you ordered. However all things do change, my comments are just observations not complaints, do visit it is still a wonderful destination.
Richshaws have existed for decades, and gardens are always crowded in holidays. Not sure which western food you were looking for, there have always have been some restaurants serving them. I think your experience was just due to the timing and locations.
Great video! Glad you guys visited Suzhou cuz it's my hometown. These are the places I usually hang out at the weekends. The gardens are beautiful and they help me feel refreshed every time. (Even I went to these places almost a thousand times lol)
Good job! I enjoyed your Video tremendously. Pay a lot of attention when you are in China, especially the old part of China that is where the true colours of that country. China is amazing.
What a lovely video! I was there this summer and I think you really captured a lot of the feeling of the place. So enthusiastic and interested in where you are, your energy really comes through in your video. Great job guys, I enjoyed this a lot :)
I loved Suzhou like I would love a friend or a romantic partner. I remember spending 10 weeks there - and subsequent personal travel - for an intensive study abroad language program - the Critical Language Studies Program for Mandarin - while in college. It was a truly beautiful experience. I remember it taking about 5 weeks to acclimate towards and feel at home in the culture. Once I did it, the arts and high culture of that city are second to none.
I found your Channel last week and enjoyed watching all of your new and old videos. Please show the modern side of China TOO. Suzhou skyline is absolutely stunning but you are NOT showing us that. I live in Toronto too.
Alistair Razi thanks for watching. We had very rainy weather while in Suzhou unfortunately. And I couldn’t capture the skyline like I would have liked to. Did you watch our Shanghai video? It really shows off the modern side of China.
@@ThePlanetD By the way, I enjoyed the most watching your video from Toronto, our home city. You have done an excellent job by making a professional video.
the locals here call "the gate to the orient" an ugly pair of pants lol. i personally dont like the design but it's a great city. also one place you did not mention that i think is worth visiting is the west mountain (idk thats the literal english translation) island in the middle of the tai(hu) lake. it has a cool cave and a lot of cool parks and short hikes however getting there could be challenging especially if you dont speak chinese as the area in between the center city and the lake is not really developed but its a hidden gem if you manage to get there

Spent two weeks there on business. One of the best experiences of my life. The night market next to the river was magnificent . Wonderful place!
Nice place to get to spend some time at work.
I taught English in Suzhou for one and a half years. Watching this brings back memories and makes me smile!
Fantastic ! it worths to mention the old saying:"Up above there is Paradise, down here there are Suzhou and Hangzhou."
From Shanghai to Suzhou, it only takes 23~30 minutes with a high speed train depend on which train station you get on. So it is very convenient.
Thanks for the information! That's amazing. China has such an efficient transportation system.
What a lovely and well presented n edited video on Suzhou! I visited Suzhou back in 2003. Thank you very much for bringing me back such precious memories ❤❤❤❤👍
Thank you so much! I am glad we could let you revisit Suzhou. It's a beautiful city.

Alistair Razi thanks for watching. We had very rainy weather while in Suzhou unfortunately. And I couldn’t capture the skyline like I would have liked to. Did you watch our Shanghai video? It really shows off the modern side of China.
Alistair Razi we also have a video on Hong Kong that really shows off the modern city. Cheers!
@@ThePlanetD Thank you so much. I am going to find and watch it. Please go to Suzhou Mall if you have time. Enjoy your trip to Suzhou.
@@ThePlanetD Yes, I watched your video from Shanghai. Now I am watching the Hong Kong one. Old China is boring. I love modern cities.
@@ThePlanetD By the way, I enjoyed the most watching your video from Toronto, our home city. You have done an excellent job by making a professional video.
Suzhou city of canals ❤️
可爱。
Hi, how do you spell the name of that dress store near the end?? It’s so beautiful 😣😣😣😣
老美游苏州，很有趣。

Welcome to China
Best intro on RUclips
Wow! Thank you very much!
fun tips: suzhounese dialect sounds very gentle and soft
the locals here call "the gate to the orient" an ugly pair of pants lol. i personally dont like the design but it's a great city. also one place you did not mention that i think is worth visiting is the west mountain (idk thats the literal english translation) island in the middle of the tai(hu) lake. it has a cool cave and a lot of cool parks and short hikes however getting there could be challenging especially if you dont speak chinese as the area in between the center city and the lake is not really developed but its a hidden gem if you manage to get there
Sounds like a great destination. Hopefully we'll be able to get back one day and see it. Cheers!

hotel name please..
We stayed at the Pan Pacific Hotel. The views of the lightshow are from the W Hotel. Hope that is what you are looking for. Cheers!
Welcome to My home town
Bad information... the springs are not on Saturdays... They are just on Fridays... I was yesterday there 😉
I made a travel vlog about changzhou.
I watched it! Fantastic video.
bongzai？You mean potted plant？
It is was a bonzai garden that we visited with a bonzai master. But you are right, they are in pots. :)
就是盆栽呀
The only thing is suzhou center is super expensive
I finally find a video showing Suzhou's Morden side. Most ppl only know its gardens and canals.
Suzhou is an amazing modern city. I love that it has a mix of modern and ancient.
FYI - Pei did not "design the Louvre." He designed the pyramid-shaped entrance to the museum. That's a BIG difference!
have agood time！
how r u verified at 42.8k subs
苏州欢迎您…
I've been to Venice too.... the Suzhou of the West, that's what I've been told.
Very true!
ke可是，黑叔不知道
But Uncle Black doesn't know
actually when talking about chinese opera, most younger generations cannot understand, either... : )
Suzhou is Suzhou. Venice can be callrd the Italian Suzhou and not the other way around.
I used to impressed by UK canal system, know I found out they copy it from China
nice video. one thing, 'zhou' is pronounced like the american name: "joe". not like the american word 'show'.
'He designed the Louvre'
The glass pyramids of the Louvre, yes.
book
ke

Thank you!
