Venice of the East... Kinda [Hidden Treasure #2 Mudu, Jiangsu]
They say that Suzhou was called the Venice of the East by Marco Polo, but there are plenty of places in China that have similar claims. I was hired to take some tourism photos in an ancient Mudu Water Town on the outskirts of Suzhou, Jiangsu, China. This town has well over 2500 years of history and was a favorite of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty.
Join me as I walk through a few of the larger gardens, the Hongyin Mountain Villa, and the Yanjia Garden.
Make sure to let me know if you like this format, or if there are other ideas for showcasing these places around China. Thanks!
***DISCLOSURE
I was paid by the Mudu Tourism Board to take photos of their town. This video is being done separately but I was paid to be there.***

THIS IS CHINA!
I’m YOUR taker of INSPIRINGLY Beautiful China-based Photography! Still imaging, Video, and Aerial Stills/Video.
I focus on Travel, Editorial, and Commercial imaging.
My name is Adam Crase and I'm an American photographer working in China. It’s my goal to share images of modern-day China with the world to help foster a greater understanding.
Many years ago I thought, “What IS China?” I asked around and found that not many really knew the answer to that simple, but complex, question. It was then that a seed of desire to learn, experience, and better understand the Middle Kingdom was planted. Taking pictures for over 21 years, I knew how I would share the answers of that question to the world. With photography! In 2008, the seed was ready to break through, so I packed my things and moved to China. First living in Xianyang, Shaanxi, then for the past 7 years in Dongguan, Guangdong.
I have experienced far Western, Southern, Eastern, Northern, along with a steady dose of central China, traveling mostly by train and bus. I have witnessed the beauty of this country and will stop at nothing to share this with the western world. I will continue to travel this country until I have answered my questions about each Province, Autonomous Region, Special Economic Zone, and area. I hope you enjoy the images and video, while learning something along the way.
