Mudu Ancient Town ,located Suzhou. 苏州木渎

It is located at the foot of Linyan Hill in the west of Suzhou. She is surrounded by quiet, delicate landscape and connected to the Taihu Lake through lots of waterways, wins a good reputation of superb grace and elegance. Two clear and charming rivers, Xiangxi River and Xujiang River, wind their ways through the peaceful and beautiful town. It’s recorded that Fucai, the Emperor of the ancient Wu County 2500 years ago, especially had his Guanwa Palace built here for his queen Xishi, one of the Four Beauties in the history of China. In addition, Qianlong, Emperor of Qing Dynasty had been to this beautiful town six times.
