West Lake in spring is absolutely dreamy!! Even if you miss the cherry blossoms, it's still stunning! If you unfortunately become one of Hangzhou's cherry blossom refugees this year, I recommend copying this half-day itinerary for a crowd-free weekend. You can capture photos of late-blooming cherry blossoms and fields of February orchids. (Don't ask me how I know, I was a cherry blossom refugee myself last year. Visiting Hangzhou around the 20th is a safer bet.) Citywalk Route: Wugui Lake → Yanggong Causeway → Maojiabu (Wugui Lake and Maojiabu are both loops around the lake, you can choose the best sections to walk.) Must-sees: Wugui Lake: Near He Zesanchun, there are late-blooming cherry blossoms, thatched cottages, and a small waterfall. Yanggong Causeway February Orchid Path Maojiabu: Daise Cantian - Fanggui Pavilion, the February orchids are mainly in this section. There are some restaurants near Maojiabu. Estimated time: 2–3 hrs

: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Note: It is recommended to arrange the Jiuxi Yanshu in the first half of the trip, because the scenery here is the most beautiful and you can appreciate its beauty more when you are energetic. The 10-li Langyao section from Longjing to Meijiawu is not recommended for people with poor physical strength. I think the scenery is average. If the weather is good, the sun will be very hot. Friends who take the 2nd and 3rd routes can rest and adjust in Longjing Village, eat, drink tea and rest🍵. Except for the 8 yuan ticket for Yunqi Bamboo Trail (free with park card), all other attractions are free and do not require tickets. ️

If you want to avoid the crowds at the Broken Bridge, head to Yuhuwan Bay, a beautiful park loved by locals. Location: Hangzhou, Yuhuwan Bay Transportation: • From Hangzhou East Railway Station, take Metro Line 1 to Huanglongdong Station (Exit E), then transfer to a bus to Chishanbu Station. • If you want to see the sunrise and morning mist, we recommend driving or taking a taxi. Recommended route: Xianhu Pavilion → Wuzhuangyuan Archway → Jihong Bridge → Jihongxie → Yang Causeway → Prince Bay Park Tips: • In winter, the light is better after 7:15 am, the air is fresh, and there is often morning mist on the lake, making it perfect for photos. • The best time to photograph the sunset through the bridge is 3:15–4:00 pm. • We recommend spending 1–2 hours here. Visit in the morning to avoid the crowds. • Nearby attractions include Wuguitan, Yu Qian Temple, Huiyin Gaoli Temple, and Viewing Fish at Flower Harbor. You can also climb to the top of Jiuyao Mountain for a panoramic view of West Lake. • In early winter, remember to keep warm. Yuhuwan Bay is famous for its rowboats, stone bridges, and long corridors. It's a great place for photos and well worth a visit.

Wow! Free travel in Zhejiang with a Hangzhou-Wenzhou high-speed rail ticket! West Lake in Hangzhou is beautiful all year round, but I especially love it in autumn. When the north has already entered winter, the autumn colors in the south of the Yangtze River are still strong. Leisurely strolling along Yanggong Causeway & Su Causeway, the trees on both sides have put on their autumn costumes, red, yellow, and green are intertwined and colorful. At sunset, this is the most beautiful moment of West Lake. The afterglow of the setting sun gently sprinkled on the lake, and the entire West Lake was dyed golden in an instant, warm and unrestrained.

As the end of summer quietly approaches, the lotus flowers in Hangzhou West Lake are still in full bloom, as if telling the last romance of this summer.

I would say now is the most beautiful season of West Lake!!! Longjing Road and Yanggong Causeway are really, really, really beautiful. The colorful greens are truly pleasing to the eye. Riding a bike around, taking a stroll and snapping photos is so comfortable.

March is for magnolias and cherry blossoms🌸 April is to see wisteria and hydrangeas, May is the blooming season for Chinese roses, The flower garden has become one of the few 'secret spots' in West Lake Riding a bike from Beishan Street, West Lake is indeed never off-season, teeming with people. It only gets a bit more comfortable when turning onto Yanggong Causeway, and opposite Quyuan Fenghe is the flower garden. You can stop on the entrance arch bridge, 📷 take a photo of the little boat under the shade Turn right at the flower planting square and go straight ➡️ to the wisteria corridor. The recent heavy rain has battered the wisteria, otherwise, the wisteria these days would be the most beautiful, Walk a few steps forward from the wisteria corridor, turn into the stone path, and you'll be greeted with the stunning view 👉 the tender green of spring, the weaving boats, and the red tree by the bridge is the finishing touch. Continue on the main road towards the Gupu Water Town, and you'll find the central lake where there is another wisteria, next to the wisteria is the wooden hydrangea, in a half-green state. Gupu Water Town, near the Shejing Garden's corridor, here are planted wisteria and fragrant osmanthus, but the wisteria is already wilting.

As one of the top autumn viewing spots in the country, even on weekdays, popular attractions in Hangzhou are bustling and lively. Especially the Su Causeway and Bai Causeway in West Lake are crowded with people, making the experience of sightseeing or taking photos much less enjoyable. In contrast, there are far fewer people on Yanggong Causeway in Outer West Lake, especially at attractions such as Turtle Pond, Heron Bay, and Maojiabu, where there are few tourists and the touring experience is excellent. Every time I come to Hangzhou, I have to visit here. The next day, I visited Turtle Pond, Heron Bay, and Guozhuang in succession, strolling leisurely and feeling at ease. I feel that the autumn scenery here is no less beautiful than that of the inner lake. Touring Tips: 1. Turtle Pond, Heron Bay, and Maojiabu scenic spots are free; Guozhuang ticket: 10 yuan for adults, 5 yuan for children, students, and elderly people aged 60-69, free for elderly people aged 70 and above, children aged 6 and below, military personnel, disabled people, and retired officials. 2. Transportation: Accessible by West Lake Ring Line, Bus 194, etc.

Hangzhou Xuefang | A paradise by the West Lake||| Xuefang, a thatched pavilion built by the water. It is a few thatched pavilions I stumbled upon in the Santai Dreamland Scenic Area, with a forest of begonias in front of the pavilion and a clear green pool behind it, quiet and picturesque. At first sight of it, there is a sense of seclusion, sitting here, it is hard not to be moved by the original beauty here. Standing on the Xijin Bridge, you can see a few thatched pavilions by a green pool. At first, I didn't know what this attraction was, so I looked for a way in. About 100 meters ahead, I saw a left turn on an inconspicuous path, so I went in regardless, and I really got to the grass pavilion along the path, and the plaque in the pavilion wrote two big characters Xuefang. As for why the thatched pavilion is called Xuefang, there is no way to verify it, I don't know, maybe it is because the winter snow covers the grass pavilion, and it looks like a white painting boat from a distance. In addition to Xuefang, there are several thatched huts of different shapes, which make people experience the wild interest of 'green bamboo hat, green raincoat, slanting wind and drizzle do not need to return'. Such a shaped thatched cottage, looking at the whole West Lake, you can only see it on Santai Mountain. Xuefang is surrounded by dense woods, and you can't see this hidden paradise-like beauty on Yanggong Dike at all. Looking at the Xijin Bridge on Bapanling from Xuefang, isn't it beautiful. These thatched pavilions are for tourists to rest, living here really has a bit of Tao Gong's 'picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence' mood.

The fifth bridge along (from north to south) along the Yanggong Causeway is the seventh of ten new attractions surrounding the West Lake, and faces Nangao Peak and Santai Mountain from afar. From the Southern Song Dynasty to the Ming dynasty, this bridge became a meeting point for virtuous and talented men due to its location near the Sanxian Ancestral Temple. It is also the only surviving arch bridge along Yanggong Causeway.

Winter is still black and white? That would be too stuffy! Winter day, the sunshine time is short, sometimes the weather is not the best state, so you need to light up the color to brighten the whole picture. blue and yellow cold and warm color contrast is a very good choice, warm yellow, clean blue, the picture is full and not superfluous. If you match the parent-child costume at this time, the same color clothing is even better, the sweet family, the clothing that echoes, makes your trip more colorful!

After the snow, Yanggong dike, the snow fell more than half. The water jacket is exposed, and the small snowball is hung in the woods. Maybe the elf wants to live in it~ Overlooking the earth, the cake is like a layer of color, the car is snowing, the umbrella is blooming. . First snow has completed a happy trip in your own city.
