1. Classical Garden Charm: Step into Tuisi Garden, a UNESCO World Heritage Site from the late Qing Dynasty. Breaking from tradition with its horizontal layout, its pavilions and towers cling closely to the water's surface, perfectly embodying the concept of "water embracing the garden, garden floating on water." Here, AR-guided glasses transport you back centuries, allowing you to experience the owner's lifestyle and contemplate the profound philosophy of "reflecting on one's faults in seclusion."
2. Exploring Cultural Stories: The Pearl Tower carries the history of the former residence of Chen Wangdao, the Nanjing Censor during the Jiajing era of the Ming Dynasty. It is also the birthplace of the love story depicted in the Xi Opera "The Pearl Tower." Strolling through its winding paths, visitors can immerse themselves in a romantic and culturally rich atmosphere.
3. Unique Water Town Experience: Walk across the three symbolic bridges (Taiping Bridge, Jili Bridge, and Changqing Bridge) representing good fortune and happiness, experiencing the local "Crossing Three Bridges" tradition. Take a cruise through the waterways, admiring the ancient architecture along the banks. Wander through the deep, narrow lanes of Chuanxin Alley, fully immersing yourself in the charming water town ambiance of Tongli Ancient Town.
