Suzhou｜Early Spring·Hanshan Temple

#5月好去处2025

"The moon sets, the crows cry, the sky is full of frost, the maples on the river bank and the fishing fires are facing me in sorrow.
The bell of Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City reaches the passenger ship at midnight."

- "Zhang Ji·Night Mooring at Maple Bridge"

How many people have a special feeling for Hanshan Temple because of this seven-character quatrain? Although there are too many tourists to reproduce the bleakness of late autumn in the quatrain, the white cherry blossoms in early spring add a bit of romance to Hanshan Temple.

Suzhou is only about half an hour away from Shanghai by high-speed rail, and it is easy to get there by taxi. Recommended!
