Mudu Ancient Town
Mudu
Wuzhong District, Suzhou (west of Taihu)
Legend tied to Wu Zixu’s city building
Wu Zixu Canal Town Qing Mansions
Mudu’s streets and bridges preserve the logic of a market town feeding the old city and Taihu fisheries. Merchant estates and garden fragments here narrate how wealth moved along smaller tributaries, not only the Grand Canal trunk.
