Lion Grove

A maze of limestone meant to look like lions. You either love the rocks or you are finished in twenty minutes. Both are correct responses.

Historic sites 历史古迹

Go in if the rocks interest you. Skip it if you have already had your garden and would rather walk Pingjiang.

Children disappear into the maze and reappear. Keep the meeting point boring and obvious.

Getting there

Walk or a short taxi from the Humble Administrator’s Garden. Doing both in one morning is possible. Doing both well is optimistic.

Staying nearby

Same central base as the other gardens. There is no lodge inside. The neighborhood is ordinary Suzhou, which is what you want.
