Jiangnan memories, the fondest are of Hangzhou. In March in Hangzhou, the rain ☂️ falls continuously, adding a touch of poetry and serenity to the West Lake. Amidst the misty rain, Impressions West Lake begins right on time! Some might say that this post-G20 version isn't as charming or as representative of Hangzhou's culture as the previous one, but I haven't seen the previous version! So, I genuinely think this version is amazing❗ Accompanied by the pitter-patter of rain, "Moonlight on the Spring River," one of China's top ten musical pieces, slowly unfolds against the backdrop of the West Lake mountains ⛰️ and the spring dawn of Su Causeway. From "Tea Picking Dance," "Butterfly Lovers," and "Dreaming of Paradise" to "Moonlight," the performance concludes with "Fond Memories of Hangzhou." Despite the rain, the lighting, stage design, and sound effects throughout the performance are top-notch. As expected from the national director, his aesthetic is truly impeccable! Especially during the duet dance, the moment the fans gracefully unfold/transition, synchronized with the elegant dance steps, truly creates a captivating atmosphere! I absolutely adore this scene❗ Hangzhou not only boasts enchanting natural 🌿 scenery but also a rich cultural heritage, where technology and classicism intertwine, and elegance coexists with the mundane. After watching this performance, I was truly awestruck! Impressions West Lake in the misty rain 💧 is absolutely stunning! The performers are all fantastic👍🏻 Falling in love with Hangzhou and West Lake is truly an effortless affair!

#cherryblossom2024 Amidst the enchanting cherry blossoms season, the Broad-Road Bridge emerges as a timeless symbol of tranquility and beauty on West Lake in Hangzhou. Dating back to the Ming Dynasty and rebuilt during the Qing Dynasty, this single-arched stone bridge spans gracefully across the water, measuring 6 meters long and 2.5 meters wide. As sunlight filters through delicate pink petals, casting a soft glow on the ancient structure, visitors are transported to a realm of serenity and awe. Carved with historical significance, the bridge's name pays homage to the majestic mountains that loom in the west, as described in ancient texts. With a backdrop of blooming cherry trees and azure skies, the Broad-Road Bridge invites travelers to wander along its path, embracing the timeless allure of West Lake's natural splendor and poetic charm. #trip #2024travel #2024trip #2024travelwish #timetotravel #tripblazers #historical #heritage

The show "Impression of the West Lake (My Last Memories of Hangzhou)" is held every day on the north bank of the West Lake. Originally created for the G20 Hangzhou Summit in 2016, this show was viewed by world leaders, including former Prime Minister Abe, but it is now a long-running show for the general public. The show is directed by the famous Zhang Yimou, and features both Western and Chinese music. The light and sound effects are spectacular, and you can't take your eyes off the movements of the large number of dancers. Although it is a short show of about an hour, it is definitely worth seeing. If you visit Hangzhou, be sure to include it in your schedule. As for tickets, it seems that foreigners cannot purchase tickets online through the official WeChat, so it is recommended that you purchase them in advance from a travel agency or a ticket site such as klook. I had my ticket reserved at a local travel agency. By the way, tickets are also sold at the venue. I hope this information is helpful to you. #China #Hangzhou #Nightlife #Show #besttrip2023

Hangzhou is my favorite place This is a new tourism program in Hangzhou in recent years, and it is performed every night next to Su Causeway. There are traditional Hangzhou tunes and stories such as Liang Zhu, as well as the latest Asian Games songs and even the Western Swan Lake. The combination of music, singing, lighting effects, huge crowds and technology made for a dazzling performance. Although the ticket price of more than 300 yuan is a bit expensive, it is worth seeing.

The West Lake is really beautiful. To enjoy the ten scenic spots of the West Lake, it is best to take an air-conditioned sightseeing boat to tour around the lake. 😄 There are radios on the boat to indicate the location and introduction of the attractions. It is cheap and I highly recommend it.☺️ #merrychristmas
