Trying to finalize planning a trip to China in March. We will end up in Shanghai and will have a couple days to explore prior to flying back to the US. I know we want to go to Hangzhou for a day or so to explore there (West Lake activities, visit a local school, Impressions show). The question is whether to visit Suzhou as well. It looks beautiful and I know it is a place I would enjoy but I am concerned that my sons (10,10,11) would find it boring. Any thoughts?

I loved the gardens, but otherwise it's not especially interesting. Only you know how your sons would enjoy several hours viewing gardens which will not be full of flowers.

west lake is really a nice place for tour, in march it is not very cold there, trees will grow up some greens
