The foundation of the pagoda was placed 959 and 961, the pagoda was completed. Overall, the pagoda 47.7 meters high and has 7 floors. The Pagoda has an octagonal shape.



The whole is called the Chinese version of the "Leaning Tower of Pisa" because the pagoda is tilted to the side. According to information board at exactly 3 ° 59 'from north to south. The whole thing is only apparent when shooting from a distance the pagoda.

silk factory in Suzhou

In Suzhou, we then visited a silk factory still

saw in the guide to everything from breeding. silkworm to the harvesting of silk and their different processing capabilities. of course, was at the end of the option to buy cheap silk products (Wen would have been surprised it).

catch but is still easy with the silkworm se to.



So after a good 4-5 weeks chrysalis the caterpillar and makes the famous silk cocoon. This consists of a single thread which was previously rolled by hand, you have the machine (well are also ready for the museum) is removed. Each thread you can see beautiful photo on the right.



The machines are, as I said, somewhat antiquated.




In the two movies you see broken once like the cocoon and the second is how stable the silk as soon as they are several layers.



Kurzweil-day trip, but 90 minutes long for a visit.

Panmen garden in Suzhou

As usual back in time but still building up. After the visit to Wuzhen water town we went to Suzhou.

directly connected to our hotel "Panmen Garden" was.



This is an old garden, was, as usual, completely renovated. Only the pagoda (more below) is still quite original.



The garden was very nice wonderful and there was next to the flowers and plants to see something else.



Eg. A new species. Raubkoi. Koi are normal which have a feeding frenzy.
Tai Chi was practiced in the park.



beautiful garden sculptures. The boys were clamped as usual for the Chinese girls photos. Blonde guys with blue eyes are rare in China. But let's ask Mike what he thinks of the photos.



As I said, beautifully landscaped



Then it went up to the "Auspicious Light Pagoda. Age, etc. I once photographed with its "keeper".



The stairway is dark, small and narrow but I still got through.



from above, of course, a wonderful view of the garden (and the skyscrapers of Suzhou).



A final view. Beautiful it was.

Wuzhen - Historic Water Town

Yes I am, as However, in default of the blog entries. Today I desire to learn about the historic water town Wuzhen report that we, in June 2009, have visited. That was a really big challenge for the children because it was Chinese right ;-) but the guys handled it great.

Wuzhen is located about 130km south-southwest of Shanghai. Wuzhen means "black town" but not because the place is gloomy or threatening but because a large family co-founded with the name "Black (Wu)" this city has for many years and had very great influence.

First rule in a water city. No cars. So cars are parked in front of the city on a large collective parking. Then, as it were, the check-in and then you get to electric cars brought to his hotel room. But a few meters on foot must run one also ;-). The historic city of water would, however, proposed to the UNESCO World Heritage Site.



The entrance to our hotel. Looks very old or already out?



but inside everything was okay. Two bodyguards were already positioned ;-)




The city itself is traversed by numerous canals.
are in the houses of the then small accommodation rooms and small restaurants (per restaurant no more than 4 tables allowed). Thus it remains true individual and original.




Have there by the way found the famous sack of rice - Lach.



As I said the people who work and live here even for the most part here so see for yourself ...



The ancient arts can be seen here all on site. Which are cultivated yet. It is virtually a living museum.

From raw materials, weaving over to a complete end product.



including dyeing and dry.



Wagner and there is also a slightly alternative way to heat his water.



Here is a good (cough) made rice liquor and stored.
distilled from fresh it tastes not bad. Otherwise, I would rather prefer a plum brandy from Nordheim (made by Reichert).



There was much to see but we have the return trip, the very traditional, made with a boat.
As we have seen so to speak, sometimes the other side. Since then the ham still on the air is dry (as in gentle 28 degrees I would say, fly there, too). Does anyone else hungry?



A short film from the boat.



We then also made a nighttime boat ride. Top things to do and relaxing (no cars, no honking, no hassle and no stress) or more simply "miracle Wonderful You".



also have this boat I made a small film.



In the end, then see another pagoda.

Who does not see this living museum and visited the definitely missed something.
