This is just ONE boarding gate!
It is so much bigger than any airport I ever went!
Train to Suzhou (64.50rmb), 34mins
From Suzhou train station, take subway (1 stop) to hostel. The station is just next to hostel. Leave my luggage there before I head to my lunch.
Together.Venue Fawn Hostel (42.50rmb pn)
Very nice hostel but need to walk 15mins to most attractions.
I find one day is not sufficient in Suzhou especially head to Tongli, I will want to go back again for the attractions and old streets.
*Next time I will want to go to Shantang Old Street and Xietang Old Street*
Using app to use the washing machine, 3rmb per wash.
小园楼
Very nice restaurant, 10mins walk from hostel. I was early around 11.30am, the queue is long after I had my lunch.
五香牛肉 (25rmb)
松鼠桂鱼(138rmb)
This is their signature, very big portion and I couldn't finish it all.
After lunch, I took subway line 4 to Tongli. Exit 10 of the station, took public bus 725 to Tongli Ancient Town(同里水鄕).
Overall, very touristy place. Probably just need to go to one watertown is sufficient.

腊肉拉面 (39rmb)
From the end of Pingjiang St, walk about 10mins to Guanqian Street.
Commerical street, not much things to browse except some local shopping.
From there, I walked back to Pingjiang old street.
About 10pm, most shop is already closed and time for a drink.
First hop, pub with solo singer.
