Score: 85.96

Suzhou in Jiangsu Province is a city comprising of rivers and canals as well as a city of gardens -- hence its nickname "Venice of the Orient." The city is famous for its amazing natural beauty and exquisite gardens.

If the palaces in north China can be described as royal beauties, then the gardens in south China are like pretty girls. The Humble Administrator's Garden, or Zhuozheng Garden, is the largest garden in Suzhou and is generally considered to be the finest garden in all of southern China. In 1997, the Humble Administrator's Garden, along with three other classical gardens in Suzhou, including the Lion Grove Garden, the Blue Wave Pavilion (Canglang Ting) and the Lingering Garden (Liu Yuan), were recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
