WUXI

Lihu Lake 蠡湖公园

After lunch at Suzhou we drove to Wuxi 无锡. Our first stop is Lihu Lake 蠡湖公园.

This lake is so spacious and windy that people love playing kites here.

Taihu Pearl Shop 太湖珍珠馆

After that, we went to Taihu Pearl Shop 太湖珍珠馆 to see how pearls are extracted. As those pearls at  Taihu 太湖 are rare by human, they are usually many pearls in one shell and are less valuable. They are usually uneven in size and used to make pearl powder or cosmetic, rather than jewellery.

Three Kingdoms City 三国城

After that, we headed to Three Kingdoms City 三国城, this is the place where the show "Romance of the Three Kingdom" 三国演义 is shot.

As the area is too big, they provide shuttle bus to drive the tourists around...

Watching the fighting scene of 三英战吕布.

And then took the warship to tour around Taihu.

At night, we can see many buildings are lit up by fluorescent light design at its facade. This makes the building recognizable from far and create an amazing city skyline.

Our dinner for the night....

I want these cars...

Night, we stayed at 4 star Days Inn and Suites 福特戴斯.

The breakfast is considered awesome compared to other hotel breakfast.

At Wuxi we do stop for a night and proceed on to Shanghai
