The original name of the Ouyuan Garden was Sheyuan Garden. During the Qing Dynasty, Shen Bingcheng cultivated the garden into a pattern that he now sees, taking the name of Ouyuan Garden. The first is that the middle is a residential area and there are gardens on both East and West side, forming a shape of lotus roots.

Tranquil moments in Couple's Retreat GardenI'm on a mission to explore all of Suzhou's ancient gardens and one of the most famous is couples retreat in Central Gusu. I was surprised when I arrived, by how small the garden is, it takes less than an hour to explore the whole garden. However, as I was going around a second time I noticed the beauty of this place, there are many picturesque viewpoints, as you can see, great for photography. I enjoyed the tranquility here. #本地遊 #suzhou #awesomepic #mytripvlogrobynwhaley7

Spring in the Couple's Retreat GardenThe Couple's Retreat Garden is located in the heart of the Pingjiang Road historical conservation area. The unique urban appearance, rhythm, and culture that Suzhou people have created over 2,500 years, in turn, care for the Suzhou people born and raised here at all times and places. A common saying goes, Suzhou has a flavor, its people have a flavor, and the Couple's Retreat Garden has a flavor. It does not pursue the peculiarities of form, but rather focuses more on the comfort of the soul. In this sense, the Couple's Retreat Garden is a marvel! The garden faces south with its back to the north and is surrounded by water on three sides. To the south, it extends along Xiaoxinqiao Alley, with its main gate facing the water and a river dock embankment, from which a small path stretches straight out, connecting to the residences to the west; to the north, it borders Xiaoliuzhi Alley, with a private dock at the rear gate, and to the east, it joins the inner moat, where the sound of oars can still be heard. Further east are the remnants of the city wall, with wild trees blocking the view of the barges outside and the noise of the marketplace. Amidst these unremarkable marketplaces and simple residential buildings, the Couple's Retreat Garden immerses itself in its own simple and elegant fragrance like an orchid, indulging in self-admiration like its owner, and finding self-satisfaction in the sweetness and comfort of personal life. Couple's Retreat Garden Opening hours: 07:30-17:30. Entry stops at 17:00 Ticket price: 20 yuan Address: No. 6 Xiaoxinqiao Alley, Cang Street, Pingjiang Sub-district, Gusu District, Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province (near Pingjiang Road)RAEGAN WEBSTER

20 Tips to Avoid Pitfalls When Visiting Suzhou in March1️⃣ It's currently 2-15°C in Suzhou🌡️, with significant temperature differences between day and night due to the late spring cold. Remember to bring warm clothes🧥 2️⃣ For Suzhou gardens, besides the Humble Administrator's Garden, you can also visit the Couple's Retreat Garden and the Master of Nets Garden this season. The plum and magnolia blossoms are just right🌸 3️⃣ If it's your first time taking a night tour🌃 of the gardens, I recommend the Master of Nets Garden, which features live Kunqu opera performances. 4️⃣ You must book the Suzhou Museum in advance!! It's currently by timed reservation, at least 2 days ahead!🕐 5️⃣ The Suzhou Museum is closed on Mondays, and entry stops at 4 pm. Opening hours are from 9 am to 5 pm🕐 6️⃣ Pingjiang Road is next to the Humble Administrator's Garden, a hotspot for gourmet food🍜. To be honest, the bamboo tube milk tea is just for good photos. 7️⃣ On Pingjiang Road, you can take a ride on a sculling oared boat for 40r/person💰, with the trip lasting about half an hour🕐. I recommend going at dusk when the lights and shadows of the oars create the most romantic atmosphere. 8️⃣ Teacher Wu Liangying's Suzhou Pingtan can be found at the 'Pipa Language Pingtan Teahouse' on Pingjiang Road, with 5 shows in the afternoon and 3 in the evening. You need to queue on-site to choose the showtime and seats. If you're in a hurry, I suggest going early to book⚠️ 9️⃣ Next to the 'Suzhou' log on Pingjiang Road is the Seven Percent Sweet. You can directly navigate there🧭 1️⃣0️⃣ For night views🌃 on Shantang Street, it's best to arrive around 5 pm🕐, as dusk is the most beautiful. 1️⃣1️⃣ Shantang Street is free, and it's a 3-minute walk🕐 from Exit 3 of Shantang Street on Subway🚇 Line 2. 1️⃣2️⃣ Suzhou doesn't have an airport🈚️. Suzhou Station is in the city center, closest to the Humble Administrator's Garden, Suzhou Museum, and Pingjiang Road. 1️⃣3️⃣ The ancient towns around Suzhou are a bit far from the city center, but Mudu Ancient Town and Tongli Ancient Town are accessible by subway🚇. 1️⃣4️⃣ If you're visiting the ancient towns, I suggest setting aside a whole day🕐. You can stay in the town and I recommend taking a covered boat🚢. 1️⃣5️⃣ When visiting Suzhou, I recommend cycling. Buy a 'Suzhou Hand-drawn Cycling Map' to experience the local atmosphere🎆. 1️⃣6️⃣ If you want to eat vegetarian noodle dishes in Suzhou, I recommend going to Xiyuan Temple, with prices at 10/15r💰 per bowl. 1️⃣7️⃣ For a proper meal🍜, I suggest going to Qian Yuman. A nostalgic restaurant near Shantang Street, it's a rising hotspot with must-try dishes: ✅ Signature Bamboo Net Duck ✅ Tri-color Shrimp Tofu ✅ Grandma's Braised Egg and Pork Knuckle ✅ Peach Blossom Ten Miles Wine 1️⃣8️⃣ Eslite Bookstore📖 is at Jinji Lake and has Suzhou's most beautiful staircase. 1️⃣9️⃣ For Suzhou cuisine🍜, I recommend going to the Shuangta Market, a popular food market with lots of delicious and affordable options. 2️⃣0️⃣ For travel, I recommend using the subway🚇, especially on weekends and holidays when Suzhou can really get congested.EMMIE SCHULTZ3

Couple's Paradise~Cou YuanCou Yuan is a national key unit, listed as a heritage by UNESCO. This garden is named Cou Yuan because there is a garden on each side of the residence. Although it has entered winter, the only classical garden in Suzhou with love as the theme~Cou Yuan is very lively. Taking wedding photos and holding weddings make people feel a kind of Suzhou-style romance. In the late autumn scenery, Cou Yuan has a different charm. The red maple by the pond and in front of the house is even more bright against the backdrop of green bamboo and willow. Location: No. 7, Xiaoxin Lane, Neicang Street, Suzhou City. Transportation: There is public transportation available. If you are strolling along Pingjiang Road or visiting the Humble Administrator's Garden, you can also walk there, the distance is not far.

Coupling Garden seems to be not as famous as other gardens, but when you visit the surrounding area of Pingjiang Road, you will find this garden to see the scenic spot. This garden is still quite beautiful, the terrace is small and exquisite, and it is very worth visiting.
The Coupling Garden is relatively small. Although the garden is not big, there will be relatively few tourists. After going there, you can also go shopping along Pingjiang Road. I met a very enthusiastic aunt in the park. She happened to be alone and two people took pictures all the way. By the way, she took me to Dongyuan again. There are cherry blossoms there. Still free, I feel that the locals in Suzhou are very friendly
The Coupling Garden is small and exquisite, and the pavilions in the square are scattered. The day we went was the day when the garden was full of flowers. The magnolia and mahogany window frames in the main hall were interesting, attracting a large number of tourists to watch and take pictures, which became a must.
Famous attractions of the Coupling Garden include Qushuiliu, Woyun Pavilion and Shuangguitang. Qushuiliu is a scenic spot imitating the ancient literary collection, Woyun Pavilion is located high in the park, for visitors to rest and enjoy the garden beauty, Shuangguitang is the main hall of the Coupling Garden, known for its exquisite architecture and carving. In addition, the Coupling Garden has other exquisite garden buildings and landscapes such as Xiaofeihong and Muxiangxuan.
The two-color magnolia flower in the Couple Garden is really beautiful. As soon as you enter the door, there are two two-color magnolia trees to welcome their guests in the spring. They have already felt very beautiful. After entering the door, they have a kind of Soviet classical beauty through the window. Going inside, there are several taller magnolia trees waiting for everyone. Every time you walk in the courtyard, you will send out wow. There is still a bigger one here. It’s right to see the two-color magnolia flowers come here in spring.
