Suzhou 2 Days｜Find a terrace to spend the weekend, from Chizhu Dantong to a sky full of stars

The sunset at the small fishing village is peaceful, and the night sky is filled with stars. Aircraft with bright lights fly through the starry array, looking from afar like a star escaping, caught by me relaxing by the lake. 🏨 Cling Homestay (Taihu Fishing Port Branch) 🚗 Weekend leisure trip around Shanghai, 2h30m drive > A romantic and bright lakeside cottage, booked the "One Color" 270° starry sky lake view room. Initially attracted by the wide view and sunset scenery, it met expectations. The balcony is perfect for photos. Enjoying dinner on the balcony at dusk, accompanied by the sunset and gentle afterglow. The homestay also provided coffee and soft drinks. After sunset, continue stargazing. > A great place to watch stars, over 70 visible to the naked eye. Occasionally, planes pass through the starry array, like 0.5x meteors, creating a very romantic night sky. It reminds me of Mr. Ba Jin’s "Stars"— “I look at those many familiar stars, as if they are winking at me. I seem to hear them whispering softly.” “Although starlight is tiny to our naked eyes, it makes us feel that light is everywhere.” 🍚 Food Recommendations: Taihu Noodle House Shiba Jiao (p8, in the same Fishing Port Village as the homestay, good to go for breakfast at 8:30, fewer people) Cuiping Mountain Farmhouse Restaurant (key point! Located in Fuli Village, Guangfu Town, the chicken soup is super delicious! Highly recommended!) Large parking lot at the entrance 🎫 Nearby Attractions: Muke Bookstore · Full Lake View Cloud Cafe Restaurant Next to it is the red-billed gull check-in hotspot, but it’s only available from December to February. The sunset scenery is very beautiful. Shibi Yonghui Zen Temple (p7) About a 2 km round trip hike from the foot of the mountain to Yonghui Zen Temple stone carvings. You can overlook Fishing Port Village from the mountain. The century-old ginkgo trees in the temple are beautiful in autumn. Yuyang Mountain Scenic Area Two ways to explore: take the cable car into the scenic area to hike and enjoy the sunset, or hike the famous Yuyang Mountain Bat Trail, about 10 km. Tips: 1. The homestay is inside Fishing Port Village. On weekends and holidays, volunteers at the village entrance may not allow outside cars in. Showing the homestay booking allows entry, but parking is difficult. Communicate with the homestay in advance; the housekeeper can help arrange parking. 2. Homestay breakfast starts late, at 9 am. Early risers can find food in the village. Near the market, there is a dim sum shop and a small stall, or you can go to Taihu Noodle House Shiba Jiao where there are fewer people in the morning.
