Tongli Water Town (Jiangsu)

#chinatravel


Tongli is a quieter, less commercialized water town than some of its more famous neighbors. Located near Suzhou, it boasts peaceful canals, shaded walkways, and classical gardens. The highlight is the Retreat & Reflection Garden, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Tongli is ideal for those seeking a more authentic and slower-paced water town experience. You’ll enjoy the local food, ancient bridges, and the simple rhythm of life that still thrives here.
