It's not that Iceland is unaffordable, but that Hangzhou's 'Little Iceland' offers better value for money
🌈Highlights:
🪨🪨🪨'Little Iceland' in Hangzhou is located on Xilongshan West Road in Shuangpu Town, Xihu District, Hangzhou. This place was originally supposed to be a mine, and one side of the mountain has already revealed a complete rock face. Next to the quarry rock wall is an endless green lawn.

Family weekend trip, Hangzhou Little Iceland's underwater secret corridor and vast lawn
👉 Located in a corner of bustling Hangzhou, the once quiet but reborn 'Hangzhou Little Iceland' re-emerges, bringing new adventurous elements—the unprecedented underwater viewing corridor and the boundless vast lawn, warmly welcoming every traveler who yearns for adventure, lighting up your weekend with a fantastic journey!
💭 Do you remember that Hangzhou secret spot, which, with its desolate and mysterious mine scenery, was as enchanting as Iceland in the North? It once gained fame as 'Hangzhou Little Iceland' but temporarily disappeared from public view due to maintenance work. 🎉 Now, this lost treasure has been transformed, not only fully reopened but also added many eye-catching unique landscapes.
The first 💎 eye-catching spot ✨: The newly unveiled tens of meters long underwater viewing corridor, like a sharp sword cutting through the water, cleverly divides the calm lake surface, guiding visitors to step by step submerge, crossing the rippling blue waves straight to the back of the stone mountain. Compared to the hundred-meter-long similar facility in Hangzhou's Xixi Wetland, this underwater corridor may seem more compact, but with crystal clear water and leisurely swimming fish, walking through it is like stepping into a dream, with mirror-like reflections that make one linger and forget to return.
The second 🌿 picturesque scene: Behind the stone mountain, a vast lawn as poetic as a painting, meticulously groomed to resemble a soft green carpet, has become a dream paradise for camping enthusiasts. What's more delightful is that it's quiet and secluded, where you can enjoy the pleasure of having the whole green space to yourself. Although drones are not allowed here, you can choose to hike, following the winding paths deep into the area, until you reach the secret garden deep within Tongjian Lake Park.
Next, let's turn our attention to the THIRD eye-catching spot 💡: Right next to 'Little Iceland' is an art and creative town filled with artistic temperament, where the greenery is lush, the architectural design is unique, and includes a series of tourist resources such as 'Art and Creative Ten Sceneries'. Whether it's the mine park, the artistic and creative green space, or even the Fengmian Book Bar, they are all closely integrated with the film, design, and art industries of well-known companies in the park, creating a rare portrait photography destination.

Hangzhou Little Iceland
Address: Located at Phoenix•Creative International
No.1 Creative Road, ZhuanTang Street, Xihu District, Hangzhou
"Hangzhou Little Iceland" was originally a mine, one side of the mountain has been mined into a vertical state, exposing the complete rock face.
And the place close to the bare rock wall of the quarry is an endless green grassland. Some people say that this large grassland is close to the exposed rock body, which is very similar to the scenery of Switzerland; some people say that the combination of the grassland and the exposed mountain body has a sense of emptiness and desolation, quite the charm of Iceland's scenery; others feel that it is far away from the hustle and bustle, quiet and pleasant, like a "paradise".
