Old Street：Ping Jiang 平江古街

星期六帮晚我们走了一趟苏州古街道：平江路，全程含用餐只花了二个小时，沿街有许多特色商店，不过因为是和Richy & Wisnton同行，他们不爱逛商店，所以费时很短。
因为是傍晚才去逛平江，所以都没有走进垂直的小巷，其实小巷里藏有许多古迹，其中的中张家巷还有古戲臺，听说是以前有钱人聚集看戏的地方，就留待下次造访吧！

在苏州最古老的城市地图上，就有平江路这条街道，它是苏州古城东边的主幹道，现在平江路依然在原址保留了它河路並行的格局，小桥流水、粉墙黛瓦，街道的宽度和河道，显示出疏朗淡雅的风格；平江路两边小巷还保留了多条水巷，是今天苏州古城最有水城原味的古街区。

My skin is still sensitive to sun rays, so I haven't gone out much this summer.  Saturday evening we went to Ping Jiang Old street for a walk. It was very pleasant to walk on the old street full of old houses, old trees, and waterways. We enjoyed the summer evening breeze but also smelled something fishy from the waterway along with the breeze. There were lots of stores selling various things, but with Winston and Richy beside me, I did not get the chance to shop at all.  I save it for my next visit.

河边古色古香的茶坊，价格合理，我们在此用餐。
