Shihu Lake Moon String, Suzhou, Jiangsu

Shihu Lake in Suzhou is a beautiful place rich in cultural relics from the Wu and Yue states. It is named so because of its big stone bed. On the night of the Mid-Autumn Day, standing at the head of the Xinchun Bridge, visitors can see the moon shadows in a string floating upon the waves. Every year, people from Suzhou and other places in China take night tours to enjoy the poetic scene of “Shihu Lake Moon String”.
