Over 60 stores extend from the North Summer Palace Gate entrance into the Suzhou Market Street which is about 300 meters in length. Along the Back Lake, the street design imitates the ancient style of shops on the banks of rivers in Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province, that is, taking the running water of Back Lake as the street and its banks as a market. The area served as an entertainment location where Emperors and concubines could feel as if they were strolling on a commercial street. When the royals went there, eunuchs and maids of honor would playact as peddlers, customers and shop assistants to mimic market activities.

Built during the reign of Qianlong (1711-1799), the Suzhou Market Street was burned down by Anglo-French allied force in 1860. It was rebuilt and in 1990 opened to the public. Today's market includes stores such as dyers, souvenir shops, drugstores, banks, shoe stores, teashops, and food vendors, with clerks dressed in Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) costumes. travelchinaguide.com/attraction/beijing/summer/suzhou.htm
