Suzhou District
For other uses, see Suzhou (disambiguation).
The Suzhou District (Chinese: 肃州区, Suzhou Qu) is an administrative district in Gansu, the People's Republic of China. It is one of 17 districts of Gansu.
Suzhou District is part of the Jiuquan prefecture, and the seat of the prefecture government. Therefore, less-detailed modern maps typically mark Suzhou's location simply as "Jiuquan". However, for many centuries Suzhou was an important city in its own right.
