West Lake lotus viewing route – highly recommended for saving

Hey everyone! I've discovered a hidden way to experience West Lake! It turns out there are 10 hidden "magic picture frames" here. Any shot you take will look like a traditional Chinese painting 📸. Don't miss out! Follow my guide and dominate your social media in minutes! ✨Quyuan Garden: Free happiness, who understands! Not only can you encounter "golden light piercing through the cave" (every year in May, 5:30–6:00 am, early risers get the best views!), but also, enter from Gate 3, turn right, then turn left, and go straight for 20m to reach a hidden spot. This is a great deal! 💞Love Each Other Pavilion: Take a boat for CNY 55/70, get off at Xiaoying Island, and head south! Finding this pavilion means you've captured both romance and beautiful scenery. It's definitely a great place for dates. 🏡Guo Zhuang: A CNY 10 ticket is a bargain, and annual park pass holders get in for free! Go straight through the entrance to the long corridor, head east to Pillow Lake. Use both spots to take atmospheric photos! 🐟Flower Harbor Park: Free admission + golden light piercing through the cave (every year in December, 4:00–4:30 pm) provide double the value! Turn left at the south gate and go to the end, then go north 100m from the Luyi Pavilion. Just go for it! There's also Zhanbi Tower, Xiling Seal Art Society, and Orioles Singing in the Willows... all free attractions! Silk Road Hall on the first floor outside the Silk Museum is also a great place for photos. Photo-loving friends, go for it! Speaking of accommodations, the Fairfield by Marriott Hangzhou Xintiandi is simply my "dream hotel"! It's located above a subway station, making travel super convenient. Xintiandi Plaza is downstairs, offering a one-stop service for eating, drinking, and having fun! What's even better is that it can be redeemed for 5,000 points in the off-season. With this value, I'm completely smitten💓. As a 9-year Platinum Elite member, Marriott Bonvoy is my "safe bet" for travel! Breakfast, lounges, 50% extra points, suite upgrades... the benefits are endless. With 30+ brands covering everything from affordable to luxurious, in Hangzhou, whether it's the Qianjiang New City Marriott with its first-class river views, the JW Marriott in the bustling Wulin area, or the Xixi Sheraton, which is a stone's throw from Xixi Wetland... there's always one that will capture your heart! ~ What are you waiting for? Save this guide and start your "painting tour" of West Lake! 📸
