The article deals with the current problem in field studies of architectural landscape organization of tourist cities Suzhou andZhouzhuang in China. Levels of the general construction plan and the individual components of the landscape, such as the relief,soft cape and water areas, are investigated. The results of the earlier urban field studies in Europe, America, Australia, Asia andmany others countries are presented.The results show that the structures of the cities are split by river channels, which allows to organize additional hiking tours byfloating facilities within a year and to improve the ecological environment. This is facilitated by favorable climatic conditions withwarm climate, which also helps to make gardens with artificial stone structures and reservoirs. The gardens have paths made ofsmall pebbles and stone slabs forming the national ornaments and small architectural forms.
