Pay-as-you-go: Buy individual tickets only for spots that interest you.
Top Pick: Kezhi Garden – A classic Jiangnan-style garden worth the visit.
3️⃣ Street Food Caution
Skip the touristy "stinky tofu" and "fried squid" on main streets (low quality).
For authentic snacks, try:
Zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) at family-run stalls
Tangtuan (sweet glutinous rice balls) near Fangsheng Bridge
Tea house
