Tongli Town has a unique water town style and has preserved a large number of complete Ming and Qing architectures. In the past ten years or more, it has not only attracted millions of domestic and foreign tourists, but also a large number of film and television crews. The film and television production base refers to a stone tablet near Tuisi Garden and the stone carvings on the ground. The text on the stone carvings records the film and television dramas filmed in Tongli. In 1983, the crew of ‘Father and Son of the Bao Family’ stepped into Tongli. After it was completed, it premiered in Suzhou. The quaint town, quiet deep houses and long flagstone roads left a deep impression on many audiences. Since then, Tongli Town has forged an indissoluble bond with the film industry. In 1986, ‘Talking about the Grand Canal’ filmed a whole episode in Tongli. During the filming, ships and helicopters were also used. ‘Talking about the Grand Canal’ spread the good name of Tongli Town all over the country, and film and television crews came here one after another. The garden where Daiyu buries flowers in ‘A Dream of Red Mansions’, the small building where people drink in ‘Lin Chong’, the strict Gao Mansion in ‘Spring, Autumn and Family’, and Dong Zhai in ‘Dong Xiaowan’ can all be found in Tongli. In 1990, the overseas crew of ‘Playful Kiss Emperor Qianlong’ came to Suzhou and found that this is a very ideal place for filming. Immediately, they decided to change the plan of building sets for filming and moved all the equipment to Tongli. They filmed in Tongli for a full hundred days. Opening hours: open all day throughout the year. The specific business status is subject to the opening situation on that day.
