Southbound Geese in the Woods

"The grass lies flat along Jinling's banks in the fading light. The sunset glows, while the waters flow on, indifferent. The splendor of the Six Dynasties quietly vanished with the sound of the passing waves. Only the moon above Gusu Terrace remains, shining like Xizi's mirror over the river city." Suzhou at night is a world of captivating beauty! The starlit river shimmers like the Milky Way spilling down from the heavens. Along its banks, pavilions stretch into the distance, where groups of three or five people play Suzhou pingtan on their pipa, or laugh in sweet, lilting voices and murmur softly... The women of Suzhou seem to vie with one another in brightly colored qipao. Beneath the moon and among the flowers, their graceful waists sway like swimming dragons, lively and alluring. The floral qipao draped over these lovely women seem to carry the scent of real blossoms. Beneath the night sky, the winding, melodious tunes and delicate, beautiful women envelop Suzhou's canals in an enchanting, dreamlike haze.
