Suzhou - The Silk Capital Of China

Suzhou's heyday as a silk trade centre has left behind a several nice sights scattered around the city. We used the city as the hub for travelling in the area and our short stay did not justice to the Silk Capital of China. I hope to spend more time there some time soon.

Just a side note: the much touted Humble Administrator's Garden is rather bleak compared with what you find elsewhere in China but I hear many other gardens in the city are very beautiful.
