Shantang Street – A Window into Ancient Suzhou

#mytraveldiary
In ancient times, it was not only a commercial hub but also an important transport route, bustling with merchants, scholars, and travelers.

Today, Shantang Street blends history with modern vitality. Traditional white-walled, black-tiled houses, stone bridges, and canals create a picturesque Jiangnan water-town atmosphere. Visitors can stroll along the riverside, explore antique shops, sample authentic Suzhou snacks, and enjoy boat rides that bring the old “water and land street” to life.
