Tongli

Tongli has been given the nickname "Venice of the East" for its functional canal system. Locals live harmoniously with the many rivers and canals running through the ancient township. Moreover, the watery landscape has also made Tongli a favored travel destination among city dwellers from nearby Shanghai and Suzhou.

Travel tips Tickets: 80 yuan

Transportation: boat rentals cost 80 yuan each for a 30-minute ride on a boat for eight people.
