Charming Suzhou !

Suzhou Museum

🏯An appointment is needed to enter the museum , it is advisable to book the appointment at least two weeks in advance as this is a popular spot in Suzhou and the appointment slots are booked up really quickly.

🚆I live in suzhou , so I'm not able to recommended hotels located near the museum . Traveling to Suzhou from a another city , I'd say arrive at Suzhou Railway Station and then get a didi to the Museum .

🚶🏾♀️🚶🏾♀️I can say, it's a nice idea for a day trip for those who live within Jiangsu. The silk museum and The Humble Administrator Garden, are within close proximity , one could visit at least two of these locations on the same day . The metro line 2 is about 10mins walk from the Museum .

⏰️To view all the displays plus take a few pictures might take around 3 hrs. Do stay until evening , when the lights come on , the view is amazing then ! I'd say book the 4pm appointment. It will be a bit crowded at that time , but it really is really hard to avoid the crowd ,despite the time of day or night.

👁 Things you'll see inside : Porcelain bowls from the Ming Dynasty 1403 A.D., Nephrite Ornaments from the Qing Dynasty 1644, Silk Embroideries, the pride of Suzhou, among other beautiful well preserved artifacts.

Happy travels !
