The bullet trains are really awesome here in China. You can get to all the nearby cities here for a very cheap price. Tickets to Suzhou was only 80 rmb round trip. Took about 40 minutes and ride was smooth. Only one little mistake by the ticket seller is he gave me wrong date on the tickets. The departure and arrival was on the same day and almost same time but it wasn't a problem when I got to the station, just had to look for a empty seat for me. The trains station in Suzhou is new and huge!
Train-station always full
Was playing floor-ball in Suzhou on Saturday afternoon with some other Finnish people who live there and even scored once! That was my 3rd goal now :) After the game we went to sit for a beer and some talks and later out on Teppanyaki.
Also did some sightseeing and went to see one of Suzhou's most famous gardens which is a world heritage sight. It was build around 1000 years ago and used to be the home of a famous Chinese person in the Qing Dynasty. He had a very cool house...
The bus stops are pretty cool around here, all look very Chinese :)
Suzhou also has a 9 floor Pagoda, the view from up here is awesome! On a clear day as it was one could see the whole city. Funny thing with Suzhou is that almost all the houses are white with black roof..
Praying candles
View from the tower, and houses are white white and white
