At Xihui Park in Wuxi, there stands a monument marking the visit of a South Korean called Choe Bu to Wuxi in 1488, when he took a boat to the Korean Peninsula but arrived in Wuxi by accident. After he returned, he wrote down the story of his adventure, which served to bridge the friendship between Wuxi and South Korea.
