Just got back from Qiandao Lake, finally someone has clearly explained the 2-day tour route

Just returned from Qiandao Lake and realized this place really needs a useful and detailed travel guide!! If you come to Qiandao Lake on the weekend, I recommend lazy travelers just copy this 2-day tour route directly. - 📝 Two-day tour route: Day 1: Qiandao Lake High-Speed Rail Station — Beer Town — Qiandao Lake Botanical Garden — Fish Street — City Lake Day 2: Southeast Lake Area Pier — Osmanthus Island — Tianchi Island — Huangshan Peak — Qiandao Lake High-Speed Rail Station . 🔖 Sightseeing tips: Transportation: There are direct shuttle buses from the high-speed rail station to most hotels in Qiandao Lake, which is very convenient. There are also shared electric bikes in the urban area, and buses basically cover all the scenic spots. - Beer Town: A European-style town with a small amusement park and food street. The lighthouse on the lake is the symbol of Qiandao Lake, but it’s only suitable for photo stops, no need to stay too long. - Qiandao Lake Botanical Garden: The red-roofed chapel by the lake is very photogenic, and there are many small animals. During winter time, sunset is around 5 PM, so you can watch the sunset before leaving the garden (the best sunset viewing spot is at the piano on the hill). - Southeast Lake Area Pier: If you only visit one place in Qiandao Lake, choose the Southeast Lake Area. At the pier, you can choose different routes for morning and afternoon cruises. "Huangshan Peak" is the most worthwhile island to visit; the mountaintop viewing platform overlooks the famous "All Under Heaven is for the Public." You can take a cable car or walk 20 minutes up the mountain. - City Lake: Located in the center of the bustling city area, the night view is beautiful. Taking a walk along the lake at night and enjoying the breeze is very pleasant. - 🏨 Accommodation: This time I blindly chose the super cost-effective "Qiandao Lake Holiday Hotel." The hotel is located in the urban area of Qiandao Lake, only a five-minute walk to City Lake. It’s also just 3 kilometers from the Southeast Lake Area Pier, so no need to get up early on purpose. The hotel is surrounded by lake and mountains, and the high-floor terrace offers a panoramic view of the lake and mountains. The hotel shares facilities with Minghao, featuring unique cave hot springs and many amusement facilities to choose from. .
