Suzhou is my hometown. This beautiful city is in Jiangsu Province. 1 it is not as big as Beijing, everyone in China knows this beautiful place. People 2 it as "Venice of the East (东方威尼斯)".
Suzhou has a long history. There are many ancient Chinese3 in Suzhou. Now, these beautiful gardens are becoming famous tourist places in Suzhou.
In the past 30 years my hometown has4 rapidly in many ways. The biggest change I have found is the5. On the one hand, many people here don't live in the 6 houses anymore. They have moved into the new high buildings and are enjoying a comfortable life. On the other hand, nowadays builders have 7 thousands of modern buildings of different styles (类型). I think this change is 8 because it has made Suzhou become more modern and more beautiful.
To be honest, everything has changed9 my hometown. I think you should think about 10 the beautiful city. I'm sure you will love it.
