Small but charming public park in Sūzhōu's downtown area. Popular amongst local retirees, this is a great place to experience China's outdoor group recreational activities, be it ballroom dancing, singing or playing instruments. The park's modern-style teahouse offers local bìlóuchūn (碧楼春) green tea at reasonable prices.
