[Shaoxing Keyan | A one-day guide to a Hanfu cruise in the secret realm of Jiangnan stone culture]

My babies! Discovered a seriously underestimated Jiangnan treasure! Shaoxing Keyan Scenic Area actually hides a giant stone Buddha from 1,800 years ago, an inverted sacred stone, and the dreamlike water town described by Lu Xun! Keep this nanny-level strategy 👇🏻 ❶【Traffic Tips】 🚗1 hour drive from downtown Hangzhou, large parking lot (navigate to the east gate of Keyan Scenic Area) 🚌Shaoxing Metro Line 1 "China Textile City Station" transfer to bus/taxi 10 minutes 🚣‍♀Recommended tour: Keyan → Jianhu → Luzhen without turning back, the whole journey takes 5 hours ❷【Must-check-in location】 ▫️Keyan District: ✔️The Giant Buddha (Shocking! A miracle carved by three generations of stone workers in the Sui Dynasty)​ ✔️Qiyun Stone Bone (a thousand-year-old stone inserted upside down for 30 meters, with a MAX visual impact)​ ▫️Jianhu District: ✔️Ancient Towpath (wear Hanfu to take a "people walking in the lake" movie)​ ✔️Huluzui Island (rice wine milk tea with black sail boat, steal half a day of leisure)​ ▫️Luzhen District: ✔️Double-sided stage (super immersive community drama/bride-robbing performances, best time at 14:00)​ ✔️Lu Xun's novel wall (Kong Yiji and Xianglin Sao NPC interactions are super interesting)​ ❸【Hidden gameplay】 👉🏻 Choose the "Jianhu section" for the Wupeng boat experience (wider than the urban river, 45 yuan/boat) 👉🏻The night view of Lu Town is beautiful! It is recommended to squat after 17:00 when the lanterns light up 👉Order food in the private room on the second floor of Keyan Restaurant (avoid the tour groups, eat Shaoxing three fresh delicacies for 150 per person)​ ❹【Ticket Guide】 🎫Lazy people must choose the package: Keyan + Jianhu + painted boat 115 yuan (book online 1 day in advance for discount) 💡Little secret: There may be free ticket activities before the end of March every year, and the boat ticket is 30 yuan, which is super value​ ❺【Foodie Radar】 🍶Yellow wine popsicle (5 yuan/stick at a street shop in Lu Town) 🍜Fennel beans + pork with preserved vegetables (Jianhu Restaurant's main dish) 📸Photo props: oil-paper umbrella/round fan (available for rent at the scenic spot for 15 yuan/hour) ⚠️Notes: ▪️Wear comfortable shoes! There are many stone paths but few shade trees. ▪Bring a sun hat + mosquito repellent (there are many mosquitoes in the summer) ▪️Scenic area maps are available for free at the East Gate Visitor Center Hurry up, darlings! Now there are few people and beautiful scenery, ancient style blockbusters are flooding the circle of friends in minutes~✨
