Looking for travel routes in Zhejiang, Hangzhou----Wuzhen

I am from Hangzhou. You'd better book your accommodation in advance, because it's the peak tourist season recently, so hotels are starting to be a little tight. I don’t know if you are a young person. If you are young, you can stay at the International Youth Hostel. The international youth hostels in Hangzhou are very good. They are usually near or within the scenic spots. Not to mention the natural environment, the internal services and conditions are also good. Not worse than an average hotel. And the price is affordable, the standard room is generally around 120, and it is very stylish. A few recommendations: Nanshan Road Mingtang by the West Lake, Manlong Guiyu Jiangnan Station, Migratory Birds of Zhejiang University, etc. As for hotels, the more affordable ones are chain economy hotels, such as Jinjiang Inn Hubin and Xihu Avenue. They are both very close to West Lake and the city center. They are a ten-minute walk away. The price is above 200, and the conditions are good. You can check it online.

After settling in for the day, there is still half a day left, and the only scenery left is to visit the West Lake, because the east bank of the West Lake is the city center. You can first eat at the century-old Zhiweiguan main store, which is right next to the West Lake. The first floor is full of snacks, which are delicious and affordable. Start traveling to the West Lake from the east route to the north. The scenery, culture and history around the West Lake are countless and need to be savored carefully. Baoshi Mountain, Geling, Broken Bridge, Baidi, Zhejiang Museum, West Lake Art Museum, Xiling Seal Society, Louwailou, Su Xiaoxiao Tomb, Yuewang Temple, Quyuan Fenghe, Su Causeway Willow, Su Dongpo Memorial Hall, Yanggong Causeway , Maojiabu, Guozhuang, Hupao, Leifeng Pagoda, Jingci Temple, Changqiao, Wansong Academy, Prince's Bay Park, Singing the Orioles in the Willows, China Academy of Art, Nanshan Road Bar Street, West Lake World, etc., there are too many. . . I won’t go into details, but you can basically see it in a circle. It is recommended that you arrange West Lake in the afternoon of the first day and the morning of the second day.

The next afternoon you can go to the famous Lingyin Temple and Feilai Peak, the first temple in the south of the Yangtze River, as well as the nearby Santianzhu (three Tianzhu temples). You have to go up the mountain. These places together can be regarded as a relatively large scenic spot.

On the morning of the third day, you can go to Longjing (plus Jiuxi Eighteen Streams), Meijiawu (plus Yunqi Bamboo Trail) or Manlong Guiyu, but you can only choose one of the three. This is basically They are all famous Longjing tea towns, with mountains, water and large tea gardens, which are very beautiful. Especially in Manjuelong, if you catch the sweet-scented osmanthus blooming, it will be filled with the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus all over the mountains and plains, which is very comfortable. You can also drink tea and eat farm food in these places.

On the afternoon of the third day, you can go to Wuzhen. Wuzhen is only 60 kilometers away from Hangzhou. There is a bus to the East Long-distance Bus Station every half an hour, and it takes 50 minutes. It is very convenient. Wuzhen East-West Gate combined ticket is 150. Wuzhen is suitable to go when there are few people. Too many people will affect the charm and the commercial atmosphere will be stronger. I've been there many times, always in the off-season, and it's beautiful. In the afternoon, you can visit Dongzha. Mao Dun's former residence and academy, Fengyuan Shuangqiao, etc. are all good, but those small attractions are not interesting. You can buy a night view ticket to enter Xizha at night, and you can also stay in Xizha at night, but it is very expensive. On the fourth day, you can visit Xizha in the morning, return to Hangzhou city in the afternoon, and return in the evening.

In the evening in Hangzhou, you can visit Wushan Square (Chenghuang Pavilion), Hefang Street, Gaoyin Street, etc. It is a classic pedestrian street, which is very interesting and has snacks, but most of them are not authentic Hangzhou snacks. (Except Dingsheng cake and Longxu candy). Gaoyin Street is full of restaurants. I recommend Huang Faner’s Qianlong Fish Head, and Wang Runxing and Little Shaoxing are also good.

A friend once came to Hangzhou and said that he could not stay there for as long as he wanted. I think it is because Hangzhou is rich in scenery, history and culture. Your time is still too tight.
