Introduction:

Three Hills Island , a newly recognized pearl sparkling in famous Lake Tai that falls within the prefecture of Suzhou , is a place where urbanites may seek a weekend hideaway from the forest of cement and the sea of people.

Compared with other nearby tour sites, Sanshan Island is simpler and less hustle & bustle. What is attractive here is not only the cuisine and the newly picked fruits, but also the zigzag trail stamped out of the bushes and several natural spots.

Most locals used to live by fishing, and each family owns at least one wood or metal boat. The bottoms of some boats are made of cement. Some licensed locals raise fish, shrimp or crabs in water around the island. Some depend entirely on the orange trees. Others clean up their courtyards to attract travelers, most of whom are from nearby Suzhou and Shanghai .
