Ningbo, are you confused? Such a beautiful place and you don't recommend it

Dongqian Lake, Zhejiang's own little Erhai, with its blue lake surface, tranquil big trees, long corridors, ancient streets, and fairytale-like lighthouses, needs no filters! Dongqian Lake truly deserves to be called Ningbo's backyard garden! It definitely gives off a relaxed vibe like Erhai. So beautiful, so beautiful! Follow me and enjoy the oxygen! My itinerary: Day Arrive at Ningbo Station at noon - Ningbo Academician Center - Liming Village to watch the sunset Day Xiaoputuo - Qianhu Secret Realm - Hanling Old Street - Return 🚗 Transportation advice: Driving yourself is more convenient, there are many parking lots. 🚇 Take Metro Line 4 to 'Dongqian Lake Station' and then take a taxi, or you can take the ring lake bus. 🛖 Accommodation recommendation: We stayed at Zhenyin·Taoyuan Pavilion Homestay at the westernmost part of Liming Village, the best spot to watch the sunset. Watching the sunset and having afternoon tea at the homestay is really enjoyable, and friends on social media thought we went to Dali~ Every room in the homestay is a lakeside room with zero distance to the lake, the scenery is amazing! 📷 Other check-in points 📍 Ningbo Academician Center Navigate to 'Visitor Center', the internet-famous tree facing Dongqian Lake, and the arched gate viewing platform are all here, you can also overlook the small fishing village below. 📍 Liming Village A small fishing village built by the lake, with many artistic shops in the village, every alley leads to the lake, great for photos! You can watch the sunset at Zhenyin·Taoyuan Pavilion Homestay where we stayed. 📍 Xiaoputuo A long causeway in Dongqian Lake, enter from the west gate near Liming Village, walk to the other side to see the Water Guanyin and Xiayu Zen Temple. 📍 Qianhu Secret Realm Keep walking from Xiaoputuo or rent an electric bike, it's 6 kilometers long to reach Qianhu Secret Realm. The scenery is beautiful, and there are also coffee shops inside where you can check-in and rest. 📍 Hanling Old Street A thousand-year-old village transformed, the main street has many snacks and restaurants; walking into the alleys still retains the original appearance of the ancient village, full of local flavor~ Near the lake, you can see the Hanling Art Museum, which is not yet open, but the building is great for photos. Warm tips🔔 It's recommended to wear white clothes for great photos Be sure to protect yourself from the sun, the UV rays are strong here There are many mosquitoes in summer, bring mosquito repellent when you go out
