Broken Bridge Philosophy Skip the crowds and head straight to the top floor of "Wanghu Lou" on Beishan Street—order an iced lotus root starch drink (💰58, no minimum charge) and watch the Broken Bridge crowds flow like a starry river. Here, the bridge becomes a stage, tourists are actors, and you enjoy a director’s view. 2. Dancing Fountains & Stars At 20:00, claim your spot on the rocky area southwest of Jixian Pavilion (wade through shallow water—Crocs are your battle shoes) to witness three wonders: - The music fountain swaying to "Butterfly Lovers" - Leifeng Pagoda’s lasers etching Sanskrit into the night sky - The Qixi drone formation morphing into a "Magpie Bridge" 3. Firefly Night Voyage At 21:00, rent a solar-powered punt (💰120/h) at Huagang Dock and row deep into Su Causeway. Released fireflies trace golden paths behind your boat—a sight only visible for two weeks before Qixi Festival. 4.

The bitter lotus hearts echo Lin Bu’s reclusive pride. ➌ Wild Waterway Adventure Book a hand-rowed boat from Maojiabu to Wuguitan (💰300/boat), weaving through reed tunnels to startle egrets. The boatwoman’s Wu dialect songs carry echoes of Southern Song poetry. 🧊 Midday Cool-Down Havens - China Silk Museum’s "Frozen Palace of Fashion": Try on Qing Dynasty ceremonial robes via AR in 18°C chill, with mist swirling like the Moon Palace. - Solitary Hill’s Summer Cave: Receive a Song Dynasty cooling sachet in Lin Bu’s hermit crevice—its scent evokes "Sparse shadows slant across clear shallow waters." 📸 Qixi Eve Photo Magic - Leifeng Pagoda’s Golden Moment (19:40-19:55) Jingci Temple’s Shakyamuni Hall steps—capture the pagoda "swallowing" the sunset, its glazed tiles reflecting a giant ❤️, transforming the Buddhist tower into a matchmaker’s shrine. - Bus 1314’s Light Poetry Set up a tripod at Jingxing Bridge on Yanggong Causeway—slow-shoot red bus light trails through arches, like Wang Xianzhi’s "Peach Leaf Song" leaping into reality. - Beishan Street’s Time Portal Frame moving boats like living bonsais through the fan-shaped window at New Hotel 1913’s top floor, where patina and lake light merge into Republic-era silver gelatin. 🍜 Locals’ Belly Compass ▪️ Sizhao’er Private Kitchen Iced Longjing tea shrimp—crispy shells steeped in tea aroma. Courtyard seats with mist fans mimic a tea plantation. ▪️ Puppy Noodle’s Midnight Surprise Post-22:00 half-price eel cold noodles with iced fermented rice, plus a handwritten "West Lake Summer Ode" fan from the owner. ▪️ Damaleng’s Lotus Starch Revolution Night-market lotus starch osmanthus jelly (💰5) with free mint shaved ice refills. Listen to vendors’ tales of West Lake’s 1983 snowstorm. ⚠️ Survival Tips - Tea Scams: "Meijiawu tea farmers" often sell stale leaves—look for Tea Museum-certified shops (scan QR codes for real plantation views). - Boat Tricks: "Three Pools Moonlight Express" detours—official blue/green boats (codes starting with Z) unlock hidden routes. - Lingyin Alternative: Avoid commercialized Fajing Temple amulets—opt for Taoguang Temple’s Qianlong stele rubbings (💰30), blessed by monks chanting Heart Sutra.

Hangzhou has its own Peace Hotel|||Xinxin Hotel is to Hangzhou what Peace Hotel is to Shanghai and Sofitel Legend is to Xi'an. Countless celebrities have been received here, including Lu Xun, Hu Shi, Lin Huiyin, Xu Zhimo, Soong Mei-ling and so on. It has been more than a hundred years since its opening, and there are so many stories that have happened here... The location is also unique, with the Broken Bridge on the left and Solitary Mountain on the right, and the hotel is sandwiched in the middle. My own book describes it like this: "There has never been a hotel with such a spirit of survival in desperate situations💧". The hotel consists of the East Building (formerly Hezhuang), the West Building (Guyun Thatched Cottage, built in 1912), the Middle Building (built in 1922), Qiu Shui Villa (built in 1932) and the North Building. More than 100 years ago, this was a landmark on the West Lake, and it still is today. The West Building, the Middle Building and Qiu Shui Villa have been listed as modern historical and cultural relics protection buildings. Western art and Eastern aesthetics are combined here, making it a veritable "cultural relic hotel." The hotel is very classic, with both nostalgic retro Shanghai style and old-school Hangzhou flavor. I personally particularly like the lobby bar 1913 living room. The decoration is very nostalgic and retro. The warm light in the room on rainy days also gives people a very warm feeling. There are many kinds of books in the hall for guests to read. Because of the Shanghai style of the Xinxin Hotel, it is a good place to take photos wearing cheongsam. There is a tailor shop in the Xinxin Hotel, which sells many cheongsams. Xinxin Hotel also has a cultural activity called "Listen to Uncle Chen Tell Stories". Uncle Chen is dressed in a black gown, holding a folding fan and a pot of tea, and the show begins. He has about eight hours of story reserves, so you can basically hear different stories during your two-day stay. Uncle Chen also has various gossips about the Republic of China period. 🍽Meals I have always liked Guoyun French Restaurant. There is a large terrace facing the West Lake outside, and the dining environment inside is like that of a private villa. Among the restaurants with beautiful views in Hangzhou, Guoyun is one of them. 1913 is a restaurant that serves Hangzhou cuisine and is listed in the Michelin Guide. The restaurant is very beautiful. The hotel rooms were renovated in 2020, so they don’t look old. The Hezhuang view room has an area of ​​25-30m², while the Dongzhuang celebrity room is one level higher, with an area of ​​25-35m² Hangzhou Xinxin Hotel

Many friends asked me How many maple leaves are there in West Lake now? Today I went to the hidden route again All live scenes from 9am on December 20th . There are still many red leaves on my route 😛 After all, the green water lotus is gone 😭 The frame view of Quyuan Fenghe is gone too😭 Tiger Run is gone too😭 Next weekend and the rest of 2024 Or go to Jiuxi 🍂 (see previous post) Or you can take my private route (Picture 2)😄 . This route is a circle. No turning back Save and remember to follow me, the indigenous blogger~ . 🅿️Quyuan Fenghe parking lot, with the most parking spaces If not, go to Gushan parking lot. You can park before 10am It’s hard to say what will happen later 😟 You have to wait everywhere during holidays . Quyuan Fenghe parking lot➡️Xiling Bridge➡️China Seal Museum (enter Gushan in this direction, those interested in impressions can visit)➡️Jingyi Academy (there are a few maple trees along the way)➡️Go down the mountain to Zhejiang Museum➡️Pinghu Qiuyue➡️Broken Bridge➡️Dafo Temple Ruins (this week the ginkgo fell down, it was beautiful)➡️Agate Temple➡️Quyuan Fenghe (you can take pictures of the Menghe fish tank), it takes almost half a day to walk around😄 . If you feel hungry, go to Xu Shanghong Mutton Noodles near Zhejiang Museum. It is a noodle shop on the second floor of the toilet. A bowl of mutton noodles costs 9.9 yuan, and a bowl of double-flavor noodles costs 38 yuan (as shown in the picture). It is a special delicacy in Hangzhou. . The Agate Temple also has exquisite afternoon tea, while the Shangri-La and Xinxin Hotel on Beishan Road offer afternoon tea overlooking the West Lake. bon appetite! . Dears, follow me and I will share more routes with you! Quyuan Fenghe

Beishan Street is 3,248 meters long, with an asphalt pavement and two lanes in both directions. Beishan Street is a very beautiful street. Walking in from Huancheng West Road, there are many buildings from the Republic of China on the right, such as Qiu Shui Villa, Xinxin Hotel, etc., so it is called Beishan Street, Half of the History of the Republic of China. On the left is the West Lake surrounded by blue waves, where natural beauty and cultural beauty are perfectly integrated together. I recommend a good public transportation route, which is to take a bus to Qiantangmenwai Bus Station, and then walk all the way along Beishan Street, passing the Broken Bridge, Geling, Baidi, and Sudi. It is a good route for sightseeing and taking pictures 📸.

[ThumbsUp]Hotel Location The hotel is located on Beishan Street in Hangzhou, where every inch of land is valuable, and is only separated from the West Lake by a road. [ThumbsUp]Hotel Design 1. The design of the hotel's atrium garden draws heavily on the artistic conception of the Yihong Courtyard in "A Dream of Red Mansions" and adopts superb Chinese gardening techniques. 2. The entire hotel is a Jiangnan garden building with gray walls, black tiles and stained glass windows. It has the gracefulness of the Jiangnan water town and incorporates the elegant Western style. The whole courtyard is not big, but small and exquisite. [ThumbsUp]Hotel Rooms 1. The hotel has 12 suites, 8 of which are open to the public. Most suites are two-story lofts with private lakefront terraces or courtyards. 2. The names of the rooms are mainly derived from historical celebrities and incorporate their stories and characteristics. For example, Shi Liangcai's Sangetang, Feng Zikai's Lakeside Residence, Yu Dafu's Chi Guihua, Zhang Ailing's Rose Love, Xu Zhimo's Cambridge Love, Lin Huiyin's Yan Ni Nan, Nan Huaijin's Zen Buddhism Fate, etc., the rooms are also decorated according to the personality characteristics of celebrities. 3. The facilities and supplies in the room are very high-end, even the tea in the room are the specially supplied 18 leaves before the Qingming Festival. [ThumbsUp] Hotel Dining The hotel has two options for breakfast: room service, with Chinese and Western options; and dining at the 1913 restaurant in the Xinxin Hotel, which has a beautiful dining environment and exquisite dishes. [ThumbsUp]Hotel Facilities 1. The hotel's gym can be used for golf, and there is also an infinity pool that faces the West Lake, the only one in Hangzhou. [ThumbsUp] Hotel Services 1. The hotel provides 24-hour butler service, which is professional and thoughtful. 2. The hotel offers free breakfast for two persons every day, welcome amenities and turndown service upon check-in. 3. If customers want to swim, they can make an appointment with the butler in advance, and the hotel will also give them two sets of swimsuits. 4. The hotel will also thoughtfully prepare children's toiletries for babies.

In Hangzhou, only 2 yuan! You can take the following super camera positions Friends from other places often come to visit me at West Lake, and the most common complaint I hear is, "There is no subway in the West Lake scenic area, which is so inconvenient." In fact, West Lake has always had a "circular bus" that travels around the popular scenic spots and business districts of West Lake. It is especially suitable for a day trip or a slow walk along the stops. The key point: it only costs 2 yuan! I was visiting West Lake with my friends these past two days and happened to see a huge camping advertisement by 1688 on the bus. Suddenly I wanted to go camping again! At the end of the article, I also recommend several good places for camping around Hangzhou. Route: West Lake Inner Loop Starting point: Six Parks - Six Parks Ticket price: 2 yuan Time: 08:30-18:15 √Full route Park 6-Victory Theater (Longxiang Bridge) Park Yongjin Gate - Qianwang Temple - Qingbo Gate - Wansongling, Nanshan Road Intersection——Changqiao——Jing Temple——Su Causeway——Yuhe Bay—— Air Force Sanatorium - Dingjiashan - Guozhuang - Hangzhou Flower Garden ——Yue Tomb——Xinxin Hotel·Geling Qiantang Gate Six Parks Recommended sightseeing spots Yongjin Gate The winding Wutong Avenue is green and pleasing to the eyes in midsummer, and warm and beautiful in autumn. It is very photogenic with the Republican-era buildings on the street. Qianwang Temple There are not only ancient temples, but also the popular bridge hole "Shinyokogawa Bridge" Long Bridge The best place to view Leifeng Pagoda and the most beautiful place to check in at sunset over West Lake Su Causeway From here you can go to Taizi Bay, Jiuyao Mountain, Huagang Fish Viewing, and Su Causeway. The value of this place is self-evident. Dingjiashan This area is a quiet place with few people, including the Shenzhou base with azure lake and Maojiabu with beautiful sunset. Guozhuang The private gardens by the West Lake, with pavilions, towers, maple trees and lotus ponds, are beautiful all year round. Yue Tomb It is very convenient to walk into "Quyuan Fenghe" from here. The cherry blossom season and lotus season of Quyuan Fenghe are the best in my place! ! Xinxin Hotel After getting off the station, go to Gushan for a tour. You can not only take photos of the most beautiful S-bend in Hangzhou, but also check in at Xiling Seal Society and Gushan’s many camera positions. Ge Ling It is convenient to go to the Agate Temple and Broken Bridge. The evening blues here are stunningly beautiful! ! Generally speaking, when it comes to water camping, I would go to places like "Yuhang Heron Town", "Tonglu Shishe Village", and "Lin'an Big Fish Line" around Hangzhou. Someone on the bus said that you can get all the camping equipment for just a few hundred yuan on 1688, which is really cheap. Moreover, the outdoor folding tables, chairs and lights that I am using now were bought on 1688, and the quality is also very good. Let's buy the equipment quickly and make an appointment to camp outdoors on the weekend!

If you come to Hangzhou and don't stay at this hotel or eat here, I'll be truly heartbroken! Booked a panoramic room for dining, the night view is explosively beautiful Right outside is the night scenery of West Lake❤️ The hotel is gorgeous at every corner, a casual snap is all it takes to get a great photo Absolutely a Republican-era feel! I will really cry if you don't come here to take photos Camera positions: ① Rooftop ② Elevator (You heard right, the elevator is very retro, ahhh! – I regret not wearing a big red dress) ③ Lobby The lobby is divided into several areas, one side for dining, one for coffee and reading, one for drinks, and another side features exhibitions of literary masters' works. Those medieval-style furniture pieces really caught my eye. Why didn't I take photos of the dining? A large group of people were socializing, and I was too embarrassed to intrude☹️ I'm here on a business trip~ My boss knows how to eat, drink, have fun (and of course, how to make money), He wouldn't recommend the wrong place

Hangzhou New New Hotel was established in 1913, and the century-old shop is getting better and better. The exterior is classical in style, and the hotel has a strong sense of history, with many old objects and old photos. The 1918 restaurant should be the most beautiful view on the West Lake, where you can enjoy the scenery of the West Lake while eating. The room is not big but it is very uniquely decorated, with a strong classical style. The hotel's terrace is very large and open to the public. It's simply a fairy life to sit there and chat while drinking tea when the weather is good. The service is particularly good, it can be said to be meticulous.
