To avoid the crowds, let me secretly tell you about an off-the-beaten-path cherry blossom viewing spot in Hangzhou

Hangzhou in March and April is already brimming with spring warmth It's the perfect season for flower photography A few days ago, my social media was flooded with posts of the Binjiang cherry blossom trail I really wanted to go and check in But there were just too many people The landlady of the guesthouse recommended a less popular spot for cherry blossom viewing The Children's Park, where there are slightly fewer people I chose a nice sunny day A gentle breeze caressed my face, and cherry blossoms fluttered down Scenes from Makoto Shinkai's '5 Centimeters Per Second' immediately came to mind 🏕️: Hangzhou Youth and Children's Park 📍: No. 60, Hupao Road, Xihu District 🎫: 10rmb ⏱️: 8:30-16:30 🕹️Tips: 1️⃣Wear light-colored clothes, girls can choose pear blossom white or pink, it will make for better photos 2️⃣Try to go in the morning, there are fewer people than in the afternoon 3️⃣Find a companion to take photos with, because it's really beautiful You can also visit Taiziwan to take pictures of tulips, or Yuquwan and Turtle Pond, which are also off-the-beaten-path spots for cherry blossom viewing 4️⃣Selectively bring some props, like a clear umbrella, books, or a musical instrument for the photoshoot, it will make for great pictures
