Maojiabu is located to the west of West Lake. "Old Wulin Stories" records that in the old days, most of the people who lived here were families named Mao, who made a living by picking tea and raising silkworms. And because this is the pier where pilgrims who go to Lingyin Temple to offer incense abandon their boats and land, people from all over come from all over the water during the season to offer incense and worship ancestors. This area is therefore crowded with commercial ports, with numerous restaurants and teahouses, making it extremely lively.

Now Maojiabu has become a rare and quiet place beside the bustling West Lake. You can stroll along the winding paths set up by wooden planks among sparse bamboos and reeds, or sit quietly in thatched pavilions. Listening to the wind, Xizi with "light make-up" comes to life before your eyes. Except for holidays, there are not many tourists on weekdays.
