Suzhou Huashan Natural Scenic Area is located in the Huqiu District of Suzhou City. The lush trees of Huashan can block the sunlight. From a distance, it looks like an emerald screen, quiet and green. The ancient stone paths wind along the valley like snakes. With cold springs trickling and green pines and cypresses lining the paths. Birds chirp and flowers fragrance, giving visitors a feeling of transcending the mundane and entering a fairyland.
Opening hours are from 09:00 to 16:00 all year round.
