|Encounter Romantic Peach Blossoms and Ancient Relics!. Hangzhou's West Lake in spring is a real-life Monet's Garden! Especially the peach blossoms, which bloom freely and romantically, paired with the shimmering lake water, are truly breathtaking. Today, I'm sharing this spring peach blossom viewing guide to West Lake with you. 🌸Best Spots for Peach Blossom Viewing • Su Causeway Spring Dawn: Su Causeway is definitely the prime spot for peach blossom viewing at West Lake. The stunning combination of "one willow tree, one peach tree," with delicate green willow branches intertwined with crimson peach blossoms, and petals falling in the spring breeze, creates a truly captivating atmosphere. Standing on the causeway, any photo you take will be a springtime masterpiece, perfect for sharing on social media! • Bai Causeway: Strolling along Bai Causeway, you can experience a gentle spring romance. Peach blossoms bloom along the way, complementing the distant Baochu Pagoda and the tranquil lake surface, creating a poetic scene. Find a bench to sit on and quietly admire the beautiful scenery before you; it's incredibly relaxing. 🏛️Exploring Gongde Archway (Stone Archway in front of King Qian's Temple) The Gongde Archway is located in front of King Qian's Temple outside Qingbo Gate, now within Liulang Wenying Park. In the fifth year of the Yongzheng reign of the Qing Dynasty, Li Wei built a stone archway in front of Biaozhong Temple and inscribed it with "Gongde Archway." Although the archway was demolished during the early stages of the Cultural Revolution, this place is rich in history and worth exploring. King Qian's Temple commemorates the three generations of five kings of the Wuyue Kingdom during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. They protected the people, dredged West Lake, and built river embankments, laying the foundation for Hangzhou's prosperity. Stepping into King Qian's Temple, you'll see the stele pavilion, offering hall, and meritorious officials' hall, allowing you to learn about that period of history and feel the passage of time. 🚗Flower Viewing Transportation Guide • Hangzhou East Railway Station: Take Subway Line 1 to Longxiangqiao Station, exit from Exit C, and walk a few hundred meters to reach West Lake.
