Within a week(April 5th), it will be the Qingming Festival (清明节) . It is also known as Tomb-sweeping Day.  Its name denotes a time for people to go outside and enjoy the greenery of springtime, and honour their ancestors.  Suzhou is a nice place to go for “踏青(ta4 qing1)”(==>treading on the greenery) for Shanghainese for it’s very close. And, because lots of Shanghainese originally immigranted from Suzhou in latter 19th century and early 20th, during this period lots of Shanghainese go back to Suzhou, the transportation are very busy. 

Last Thursday I went there with colleagues for work. Too busy to find some nice view. I like these lamps standing on both side of the roads. Unique!! have a nice weekend!! By the way, if you will visit China someday, Suzhou is really a nice place to visit, valuable!!
