In Sichuan it is the store (very small) that sells embroiderings like which I in the dormitory have. They make copies of photos. About 2,000 prices are reasonable € by a landscape of 60 * 80 cms., whereas in the Embroidery Research Institute acquire like minimum 10 times more. Although despite asking in some hotel of luxury (Sheratton). In the store to always request works carried out by “maester ““they do not studien”. There is a card of the store in the documentation is called Its Zhou Jin Shi Xuan Gong Yi Dian.
In the Embroidery Research Institute they do works very Good but the 10,000 prices are exaggerated and they do not lower of €.
Museum - Factory of soothes. Suzhou Nº 1 Silk Factory Co., Ltd. www.1st-silk.com Is to the outskirts of the wall. A taxi from the center costs 10 CYN and perhaps it must hope because that way there are no taxis, would be necessary there to walk 500 meters to arrive at the crossing where there is traffic.

When leaving the factory - museum is an expensive article store and when leaving there is another building there behind that has clothes and fabrics of soothe by 60 or 70 CYN the meter. The museum you go away in half an hour. I have a card of the Factory.

Transport:
From Suzhou to Hangzhou there are buses that leave frequently. 2 hours take they leave and you in the North station of Hangzhou. From this station to the center they are 45 CYN, since it is far.
In Suzhou there are two bus-stations. The North station that is very well organized and can buy ticket ácilmente, is people who know English. They have service of sale of the different companies centralized in a great mostador, reason why he is comfortable.
To sleep:
The inn of youth is moderately well, does not have outer patio, is all interior. It has Internet.
To eat:
Plate of bittersweet fish: Squirrel mandarin fish. They take half an hour in making the fish, always ask that the client is expected taking a beer, while the fish prepares itself. It is very good, has few thorns.
