Suzhou, Jiangsu
Historically, the Zhejiang-Jiangsu region has been heavily irrigated from the waters of the Yangtze. Canals weave through silk farms, rice, and tea plantations, fertilizing the ground for large crop yields. Teahouses houses like this one line the canal banks of Suzhou, and have become popular meeting places for locals.
