Shanghu Scenic Area
Shanghu, located in Changshu, Jiangsu, complements Yushan Mountain. It is said that Jiang Ziya, avoiding the tyranny of King Zhou, lived here in seclusion and fished, hence the name. The Shanghu Scenic Area is vast, a beautiful park with Jiangnan style, offering different sceneries in different seasons. There are not many tourists, so you can leisurely stroll around for a whole day. The most distinctive attraction in Shanghu is the bamboo raft in the water forest, costing 30 yuan per person. It passes through the mangroves, creating a poetic atmosphere.
The environment is beautiful, perfect for photography, and the overall scenery is quite good.

Spring in Shanghu | Always come to Changshu.
| Always come to Changshu. "The wise man delights in mountains, the benevolent man delights in water." Shanghu, it is said that it was named after Jiang Taigong fishing here. It is located in the west of Changshu City, close to Yushan. On the map, the two have surprisingly similar contours, axial symmetry, and even once suspected that digging a lake and accumulating soil would become a mountain.
Looking at the vast smoke and waves of Shanghu on the Fushui Dike, looking at the winding ups and downs of Yushan, this scene, isn't it "the willow drunk in the spring smoke on the dike", the spring breeze is blowing, and the heart is open.
At the foot of Yushan, the tombs of Liu Rushi (the tomb of Hedongjun) and Qian Qianyi are not far apart. I admire Liu's spirit and can understand "the water is too cold."
Yushan, I have admired it for a long time. I had a short trip in the autumn of last year. I just passed by Xingfu Temple in a hurry, explored Zhulian Cave, but did not have time to climb to the top, and had no chance to see the city wall of Jianmen, which is still regrettable.
Shanghu, the scenery outside the scenic spot is even more open. There are pavilions and pavilions inside, but it feels like there are more man-made landscapes, and there are fewer natural wild interests. There are few historical sites (only the Liangzhu site I encountered is sealed in the pavilion). In the square inch of glass); it is also similar to Shihu, Taihu Wetland Park or Shajiabang, it may lack the change of terrain, and there is less desire to explore.
The Peony Garden is a major attraction, but unfortunately the flowering period has passed. The national color and fragrance are ultimately difficult to resist the erosion of time. The beauty is late, and it is not a pity. Fortunately, the black peony is in full bloom, which is rare; the late cherry blossoms are just right, adding a lot of scenery.
Always come to Changshu, Changshu is really a good place, come again next time.

Jiangsu has the most 5A scenic spots in China. Among the many 5A scenic spots, Shang Lake in Changshu is not so outstanding. Changshu is less than 50km away from Suzhou. Under the halo of Suzhou, Changshu is a rare tourist destination with few tourists. If you feel that there are too many people going everywhere during the National Day holiday, then why not come to Changshu for a reverse tourism?
·
❤Must-see attractions:
✅Water Forest: There is a large area of metasequoia trees in the lake. When I came to Shang Lake, it was just the end of summer, so the metasequoia trees were green. If the autumn colors are strong in November, then the metasequoia trees will turn golden yellow, which will be the most beautiful time. Instead of going to Tianshan Mountain in Suzhou and being crowded, it is better to come here to see the water forest. Qingxi Country Park in Shanghai also has a water forest, but it is much smaller than the water forest here.
✅Lotus: Shang Lake Scenic Area is full of lotus flowers. In summer, the lotus flowers are in full bloom, which is very beautiful. When I went there, many lotus flowers had withered, and the remaining lotus pods were also very artistic.
✅Fushui Villa: It is a typical Suzhou-style garden and a masterpiece of private garden architecture in Jiangnan. It was the residence of Qian Qianyi, a scholar in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, and Liu Rushi, a talented woman.
✅Bamboo Raft: Bamboo raft requires an additional ticket. It is manned and can go deep into the water forest. It is recommended to take a bamboo raft.
🚉Transportation Guide:
- Bus: Take Changshu 116/Changshu 117/Changshu 217/Changshu Tour 3 to Shang Lake Scenic Area.

Suzhou Shang Lake Scenic Area.
It's quite convenient to take a bus, but it takes a long time. I was deceived by the weather, and it suddenly rained. There were only a few people in the whole scenic area, and I really felt the taste of a private venue. I walked and stopped to take photos all the way, which was a little tiring, but it was still okay. There is a post office at the entrance where you can get several stamps as long as you spend money. Super value
🚗Route recommendation It is not in the city center, and public transportation is not very convenient. It is recommended to drive by yourself. There is a large paid parking lot at the entrance. However, parking is charged by time, which is relatively expensive. 🏔Scenery The scenic area is very large, with beautiful lakes and mountains. In spring, you can walk on the cherry blossom avenue to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Shang Lake. You can also enjoy the Suzhou Garden, Fushui Mountain Villa. 👍Project recommendation The peony garden is very large. In April, come to enjoy the various peonies, it's amazing.

In Suzhou Shanghu, experience the unparalleled beauty of a summer filled with blooming lotus flowers in Jiangnan
Known as the 'Amazon of Jiangnan,' Suzhou Shanghu is located in the Shanghu Scenic Area of Changshu, Suzhou, just 1 hour from downtown Suzhou and 1.5 hours from Shanghai.

2️⃣ Luyan Pavilion
A large area of lotus flowers is already blooming, and not many people know about it yet, making it a perfect spot for taking stunning photos‼️
3️⃣ Fushui Villa
The entire villa is designed in a garden style, with ancient pavilions, long corridors, and clusters of lotus flowers, capturing the essence of a beautiful Jiangnan summer. Both ground and aerial photography here are fantastic!
4️⃣ Water Forest
Dubbed the 'Amazon of Jiangnan,' take a bamboo raft deep into the metasequoia forest 🌳, watch egrets 🕊️ flit about, and enjoy the cool and pleasant surroundings filled with healing greenery. Aerial views here are also highly recommended‼️

During the May Day mini-holiday, I finally got to check out the much-talked-about Shanghu Scenic Area in Changshu, and it truly is beautiful. The only regret is finding out about it too late!
☁️ Shanghu Scenic Area is located to the west of Changshu city, south of Yushan Mountain, and is named after Jiang Taigong, who is said to have lived here in seclusion and fished towards the end of the Shang dynasty. Today, visitors can still see statues of Jiang Shang and a cultural memorial hall in the park. Of course, the area is even more famous for its stunning Jiangnan garden scenery, especially during April and May when the peonies are in full bloom, creating an enchanting paradise.
⛵️ After entering the park, tourists can take a flower boat from the dock to tour the lake, passing by many beautiful bridges, forests, and ancient buildings along the way. The final stop is at the 'Shanghu Chinese Peony Garden,' which is the core area for flower viewing in the entire scenic area. The garden is filled with various types of peonies, attracting countless visitors. From March 25 to May 5, there will also be performances such as 'Nine Colors of Peony Petal Rain' and 'National Beauty and Heavenly Fragrance - Dance under the Flowers,' with the detailed schedule shown in picture 2. Visitors can also pick up a brochure at the ticket office, which includes the performance schedule on the back - don't miss out on the rich program!
🌳 A 10-minute walk from the peony garden will take you to the 'Water Forest,' where you can float into the forest on a bamboo raft. The straight metasequoia trees grow in the water, and the bamboo raft weaves through the trees, with sunlight filtering through the gaps and shimmering on the water surface, creating a magical world. It's a great spot for photography and offers a fun experience.
🏠 The scenic area covers a vast area and, as a 5A tourist spot, offers high playability. Attractions such as He Xiangzhou, Diaoyuzhu, and Wangyu Platform, as well as photo spots like Qizhou Island and Shisheng Scenery, and the continuous beauty of flowers blooming all year round, are all worth a special trip to experience. Additionally, just a stone's throw away from the scenic area is the Flying Bear Park, which is an excellent place for family outings, with various amusement facilities and the famous pink sand beach that has already become a hit throughout the Jiangnan region. Don't miss it when you come over!

If you don't visit Shanghu Lake soon, it will be too late!
Changshu has two 5A-level tourist attractions, one is Yushan and the other is Shanghu Lake! If you check the popularity on several larger platforms, Shanghu Lake is more popular than Yushan, unless you are a mountain climbing enthusiast. Otherwise, Shanghu Lake really has more playability than Yushan and is more suitable for strolling and enjoying the spring!
Shanghu Lake has ten thousand peony plants, with a flowering period from March to May, cherry blossoms, with a flowering period from March to April, and tulips, with a flowering period from March to May. So, if you want to go to Shanghu Lake for flower viewing, please hurry up!
✅ The bamboo raft in the water forest of Shanghu Lake is recommended for a ride, the scenery is very beautiful and photogenic, but there will be long queues on weekends! If you want to experience the bamboo raft of the water forest, it is advised not to take the electric boat directly to the Peony Garden, as it is far away and not cost-effective.
✅ In the Shanghu Lake scenic area, there are small electric cars for private rental, or unmanned cars, which are more interesting than the scenic area's electric cars and offer a better experience. By the way, the management of the scenic area's electric cars in Shanghu Lake is somewhat chaotic. Since the Shanghu scenic area is quite large, if you don't want to walk too much, you should either rent a private small electric car or still take the scenic area's electric car.
✅ Opposite the stage of the intangible cultural heritage performance in Shanghu Lake, there is a tea room where you can enjoy the lake view, and the peony tea is very distinctive and fragrant, it is recommended to try it.
It is very convenient to call a ride-hailing service in Changshu, so travelers do not need to drive their own cars to the attractions. Not to mention the traffic jams, there may also be no parking spaces.

I thought West Lake was beautiful, until I visited Changshu Shanghu Lake
The peonies of Shanghu Lake in Changshu are known as 'the finest in the south of the Yangtze River',
unfortunately, when I came on the weekend, I found that the peonies would not start blooming until April,
but I was lucky to catch the full bloom of cherry blossoms, crabapple flowers, and tulips at Shanghu,
especially walking under the long cherry blossom avenue on the Moon Embankment,
the cherry blossom rain falling at a speed of 5 centimeters per second was so romantic it brought tears to my eyes.

📷Photo taken on March 30, 2024,
✅The peonies in Shanghu have started to bloom one after another, but it will take at least a week to reach full bloom. The viewing spots are in the Chinese Peony Garden, International Peony Garden, and Boutique Peony Garden of Shanghu.
✅The cherry blossoms are now in full bloom, and the cherry blossom avenues on the Moon Embankment, the International Peony Garden, and the Shude Hall are particularly spectacular, making for great photo opportunities.
✅The crabapple flowers in Shanghu are incredibly beautiful, and they go well with the classical garden landscape for photography. Recommended spots include Fushui Villa, Chaoyang Pavilion, and Binghe Pavilion, which are very suitable for Hanfu photography.
✅Taking a bamboo raft through the water forest is an amazing experience, where you can see countless birds flying through the trees, and the sound of their chirping is very pleasant, giving a particularly healing feeling.
✅Bringing family or friends to camp at Shanghu is also a great idea, setting up tents by the lake or under cherry blossom trees feels so romantic.
✅There is a children's playground in Shanghu, which is very suitable for bringing kids, including the nearby Shanghu Flying Bear Park.

The most beautiful season to enjoy flowers is at Shanghu, where you can stroll around in a fun and relaxing way
Visiting Changshu, Shanghu Scenic Area is a must-see. This place, with its clear mountains and beautiful waters, is truly healing.
Ten miles of green mountains are half-enclosed by the city, and ten thousand acres of blue waves surge at the west gate. Only those who have been there can truly appreciate the poetic charm of this line.
It is recommended to enter from Gate 1, which serves as the main entrance. The tourist center, shuttle buses, and tour boats are all concentrated at Gate 1.
Right at the entrance is Taigong Island, where it is said that Jiang Taigong once lived in seclusion fishing. Take the kids to visit the Taigong Cultural Exhibition Hall, and then make a wish at the Blessing Platform.
Shanghu is vast and divided into different areas.
🌈 March and April are the flower viewing seasons. The plum blossoms are in full bloom these two weeks, and Mei Wu Bridge is the best viewing spot, where the plum blossoms are most concentrated.
🌈 If you go two weeks later, you should be able to see the peonies. The peony blooming period is from 3.25 to 5.5. It is recommended to visit during off-peak times on weekdays to avoid the crowds.
🌈 The bamboo rafts in the Water Forest have always been the most popular attraction here. Boating on the lake, passing through the Shan Chi forest, watching egrets fly together, the colors of spring are all reflected in the water, a very special experience.
❗️For those with children or who do not want to walk too much, it is recommended to take the shuttle bus. First go to the Water Forest, then slowly stroll back in reverse.
Water Forest boating on the lake — Zhangmu Bridge to enjoy the plum blossoms and spring — at Fushui Villa witness the love between Qian Qianyi and Liu Ru — along the edge of Shanghu enjoy the beautiful lake scenery, pass through the Moon Dyke, and if you encounter the lotus season, this place must be incredibly beautiful — return to Gate 1
❗️The peony season is coming soon, you can also take the electric boat directly to the Peony Garden to enjoy the flowers, and then stroll back slowly.
Taking your time at Shanghu is really suitable for a whole day of visiting. We went to Shanghu on the first day, and on the second day, we took the kids to the nearby Flying Bear Park, which is very suitable for children to play. A two-day and one-night weekend, easy and fun without being tiring.

How amazing it is to be rated as the most beautiful lotus viewing spot by National Geographic!!
How amazing it is to be rated as the most beautiful lotus viewing spot by National Geographic!!
I'm sharing this secret check-in spot with you!! I would like to call it the ceiling of lotus viewing in Suzhou
Compared with other parks, its lotus is integrated into the elegant architecture of the south of the Yangtze River
It's not that the pool full of lotus is beautiful, here you will feel 'Lotus can be picked in the south of the Yangtze River, how field the lotus leaves are, fish play among the lotus leaves.'
'Accidentally into the depth of lotus flowers'
'The endless green lotus leaves reach the sky, the lotus flowers reflect the sun in a different red' The lotus flowers in Shang Lake are in full bloom.
Three color styles of lotus
There are fresh natural colors, soft Monet water lilies and high-end dark series
Hope this summer brings you good luck
In the days I stayed in Suzhou,
I never took you to the south of the Yangtze River in the fireworks of the moon, I never met you in the misty rain of May in the garden

Early in the morning, I visited the ancient temple, where the early sun shone on the tall trees
On the first day, I headed straight to Yu Mountain and Xingfu Zen Temple~ Xingfu Zen Temple is located at the foot of Yu Mountain, very close to the Yu Mountain cable car station, and opens early. As soon as I arrived in Changshu, I went to burn incense and pray for blessings. 'The winding path leads to a secluded spot, where the Zen rooms are deep in flowers and trees', this poem describes Xingfu Zen Temple perfectly. There is a Wangyue Tower noodle shop at the entrance of the temple, which is famous. I tried the big meat noodles and mushroom oil noodles, and I feel that the big meat noodles are better, flavorful and soft!
Most of the attractions in Changshu open at 8 or 8:30 in the morning and close at 4 or 4:30 in the afternoon. It is recommended to check and confirm before traveling. The cable car ride takes about 20 minutes one way, and it's quite hot on a sunny day. Fortunately, I brought a fan. The station is the Yu Mountain Sword Gate Scenic Area! Inside, you can see the Sword Pavilion, there is a platform overlooking the mountain, very beautiful~ It is said that if you go down, you can see the Three Lives Stone and inscriptions, but we were a bit tired on the first day and didn't go down to see.
Looking at Yu Mountain and Monk Lake on the map, one mountain and one water, perfectly symmetrical, it's quite magical.
