How to get from Zhoukou, Henan to Qiandao Lake in Zhejiang Province?

You must first go to Hangzhou. As for whether to fly or train, you can decide according to your financial ability.

After arriving in Hangzhou, there is a direct bus to Qiandao Lake at Hangzhou West Long-distance Bus Station. You can go to Hangzhou Chengzhan Railway Station to buy bus tickets for Qiandao Lake. There is a ticket sales point at the West Bus Station at the railway station. They have a free shuttle bus from the train station to the West Bus Station.

The following is the Hangzhou-Qiandao Lake self-guided tour guide that I have provided to other netizens for your reference.

There are two routes to Qiandao Lake, one is directly to Qiandao Lake Town, the other is to Xin'anjiang. Here we focus on introducing you to the route to Xin'anjiang.

First go to Hangzhou West Bus Station and buy a ticket to Xin'anjiang. The fare seems to be 45 yuan. You can buy tickets at the exit of Chengzhan Railway Station. There is a free shuttle bus from the Railway Station Square to the West Bus Station.

Xin'anjiang is the seat of the city government of a prefecture-level city (Jiande City) affiliated with Hangzhou, that is, Chengguan Town of Jiande City.

Xin'anjiang is the only prefecture-level city in Zhejiang Province that is listed as an AAAA-level tourist city by the country. The scenery is beautiful. The Xin'anjiang Hydropower Station is the first large-scale hydropower station independently developed and constructed by my country after the founding of the People's Republic of China. It was once listed as a first-level strategic target by hostile forces such as the United States, Britain, and Taiwan. The Xin'anjiang Bridge is a cross-river bridge that is exactly the same as the Marco Polo Bridge in Beijing. It is said that the builder was the same person. In addition, Qili Yangfan, fishermen's wedding, dragon boat rafting, etc. are all unique tourism projects in Xin'anjiang.

So if you go to Thousand Island Lake without going to Xin'an River, it will be like going to Beijing and not climbing the Great Wall and the Forbidden City. It will be a regrettable journey.

But you don’t have to worry about not having time to go to Qiandao Lake when you get to Xin’anjiang. You can visit both places at the same time.

If it is a two-day trip, I suggest you arrange it as follows:

On day D1, you don’t have to start too early. Just take the bus from West Bus Station to Xin’anjiang around 9 a.m. Just take the bus and arrive at Xin'anjiang around 11 o'clock, and then you can arrange accommodation for that night. There are many projects to arrange in the afternoon, it depends on your preference. Your options include: visiting the hydropower station, Qili Yangfan, dragon boat rafting, sightseeing in the Lover Valley Natural Scenic Area, etc. After dinner in the evening, you can casually walk along the riverside, which is very pleasant! If you are lucky, you might even catch a wonderful performance by an adult singing and dancing troupe, haha ??

On day D2, I took the bus from Xin'anjiang to Qiandaohu Town in the early morning, and it took about an hour to reach Qiandaohu Town. Then go to the pier to take a cruise to explore Thousand Island Lake. Although Xin'an River also has a cruise ship terminal, since Xin'an River and Qiandao Lake Town belong to two different counties, the waters under the jurisdiction of Xin'an River are only a small part of Qiandao Lake, so there are many interesting islands in the lake. It is best to take a boat from Xin'an River No, so it would be more interesting to take a cruise in Qiandao Lake Town (although I am from Xin'anjiang, I have to be realistic). It only takes half a day to visit the lake. The main purpose is to take a cruise ship to visit several islands. The cruise ship will return to the pier around 1 p.m. In the afternoon, you can visit Qiandao Lake Town and see the local customs. At this time, it depends on whether you plan to go back to Hangzhou on the same day. If you plan to go back on the same day, you can take a bus back to Hangzhou directly from Qiandaohu Town. If you plan to leave the next day, you can take a bus back to Xin'anjiang around 5-6 o'clock in the evening. Spend the night.

Here I would like to explain why it is recommended that you live in Xin'anjiang instead of Qiandaohu Town. On the one hand, Xin'anjiang has many types of hotels, guesthouses, and inns at various price points, with a wide range of available prices. On the other hand, many travel agencies in Hangzhou and Shanghai also arrange most of their routes via Xin'anjiang. Therefore, Xin'anjiang's various tourism service supporting facilities are relatively complete and thoughtful. From the perspective of Xin'anjiang's urban construction, it not only retains the comfort of a tourist city without losing the prosperity of a metropolis; on the other hand, Xin'anjiang's folk customs are very simple and the society The security is good and orderly. In addition, many people from Hangzhou and Shanghai are doing business in Xin'anjiang, so as a Hangzhou or Shanghai person, when you go to Xin'anjiang, you won't have the same helpless feeling as a foreigner in a foreign land.

As for the expenses required for the itinerary, it does not include consumption such as eating and buying local specialties, but only travel expenses (round trip ticket is about 100 yuan), cruise ship (ticket is about 50 yuan each), Thousand Island Lake tickets (each ticket is about 50 yuan), It costs about 120 yuan) and accommodation (3-star standard room costs about 300 yuan per night). After two days of fun, 1,000 yuan per person is more than enough.

If you plan to stay in a private hotel, it will be cheaper
