Qiantang River, meet the most beautiful

Qiantang River When traveling in Hangzhou, viewing the scenery along the Qiantang River is a very pleasant thing, especially when traveling with children. In the evening, watching the afterglow of the setting sun and the rippling blue waves, and enjoying the dazzling night view of the river under the night sky is particularly enchanting. Starting from the Hangzhou Olympic Center and walking north across the road, you will enter the Riverside Park on the bank of Qiantang River. There are trails extending to the east and west. It is a popular check-in place for tourists, fitness enthusiasts, and families with children. Walk along the trail that stretches into the distance, admire the high-rise buildings and classic architecture lined up on both sides of the river, watch the ships moving in the river, the cross-river bridges at both ends, gaze at the cyclists and fitness enthusiasts walking away, the hustle and bustle of the city gradually recedes, and the vibrant life scenes come into view. Hangzhou certainly has many beautiful landscapes, ancient temples, ancient towns and other historical sites, but since you have come to Hangzhou, you must experience a hiking or cycling tour along the Qiantang River, because you can also meet your favorite here. After Hangzhou hosted the 19th Asian Games, the city has undergone tremendous changes, and the strip park along the Qiantang River is one of the highlights of the city. Qianjiang Century Park, the jogging, cycling and walking paths in the park along the river are great places for citizens to exercise and relax. Every morning or evening, there is a constant stream of fitness enthusiasts. The cyclists speeding by and the ups and downs of their four-wheel scooters attract the attention of tourists. The children's park has become a must-see spot for families with children. The riverside scenery and light shows attract many photography enthusiasts. There are convenience stations, fitness parks, observation decks, food kiosks, etc. along the riverside, which are convenient for tourists to take a break, recharge and refuel. The smart trail software along the river provides data and route support for citizens to exercise, making national fitness activities more intelligent and scientific. Wandering along the riverside, tourists can also learn a lot about the past and present of Qiantang River from the pictures and carvings on the embankment. Every evening, you can always see many photographers holding their cameras, patiently waiting for the best time to take pictures at sunset, leaving behind many peaceful and beautiful photos of the Qiantang River. There is a light show every Saturday and Sunday night. At that time, the lights on both sides of the river are bright and spectacular. Hangzhou has risen due to international sporting events, and the Qiantang River has gradually come into the sight of tourists and become a must-see destination for people's travels. If you come to Hangzhou again, you may take a trip to the Qiantang River to feel the vitality and charm of this river and this city.
