Lakes and mountains reflect the sunset, Suzhou has a mirror of the sky

🧚♀️Shanghai weekend suburban tour, another treasure hunting spot discovered in Guangfu Town by Taihu Lake, Suzhou! No need to go far to Dali, the natural beauty here is like a paradise, known as the "Suzhou Little Erhai"!
.
💯My one-day tour itinerary:
Twilight Bookstore - Guangfu Town (Taihu Noodle House Eighteen Toppings) - Guangfu Kiln Top Candied Fruit Factory
.
💙Twilight Bookstore:
💕Hidden in the village, built by the lake, it has a unique geographical location! The entrance is not very big, but it's a different world inside! It's both a bookstore and a coffee shop.
📷Outside facing Taihu Lake, there is a pier that is an excellent spot for photography. On a sunny day, the color of the sky and the lake is so blue, it really feels like being in Dali's Erhai Lake, and every shot is beautiful.
📖The indoor reading room has many niche books, and the bookshelves in the atrium are also very photogenic. Every area and corner here is comfortable.
‼️Read a book, listen to the sea, feel the breeze, take photos, and it's pet-friendly too, really cozy. Just that it might get a bit crowded on weekends.

💚Guangfu Town:
👉A small town by the side of Taihu Lake, you can navigate to "Taihu Noodle House Eighteen Toppings". It's not big, but it's also by Taihu Lake. You can enjoy Taihu noodles and there are many fishing boats, and you can boil tea by the lakeside.

🤎Guangfu Kiln Top Candied Fruit Factory:
👍It is said to have been open for over 40 years. As soon as you enter, you are greeted by a simple old factory, shocked by the many large jars, rarely seen purely handmade candied fruit factory.
💕On-site, the old uncles and aunties are still hand-making, and the ground is covered with candied fruits drying in the sun. They specialize in traditional Suzhou flavors, osmanthus honey, and Suzhou-style plum candies are good.
