In Hangzhou

In this city, life will never feel boring. Whether it's the small pleasures of life or the great passions of career, it can meet your expectations. During the long plum rain season, while public grievances boil over, I am most fascinated by rainy Hangzhou. If it has just rained heavily, Go to the wet Xixi Wetland to row a boat or just take a walk. Sometimes, I just go to Chaitian to eat a piece of banana cake. I also love the early morning at Faxisi Temple, chatting with Buddha in the incense, always unusually hazy, and I pray for their blessings for health and well-being. Sit by the West Lake, enjoy the evening breeze, and watch the blooming lotus flowers. The wind by the lake is always strong at night, the most comforting is the Broken Bridge after ten o'clock. If you walk a few more steps to the Buddhist Academy, the monks in their flowing robes walking around evoke a sense of inexplicable awe. I even sneaked in to listen to a class, and it truly felt like listening to a heavenly book. Then walk to a teahouse to have a cup of tea and eat a few sugar cakes. The raindrops at the door patter on the ancient bluestone slabs. Time flows slowly, and you ask what life should be like? It just flows slowly like this. Related to this moment The best place to enjoy the moon at West Lake Pinghu Autumn Moon Chatting with the boatman in the sculling boat, they are always full of enthusiasm. Even if you are alone, you won't feel lonely. Sometimes they will make you a cup of tea and tell you many legends of West Lake. Every time I climb up Yunqi Bamboo Path, I have to take deep breaths, only to find that the air has a sweet bamboo leaf scent. After sweating, I feel refreshed and invigorated.
