Introduction of Hangzhou scenic spots
Walking on the Bai Causeway and embracing tradition.
Bai Causeway is traditional. Walking on a short two-mile embankment is the most suitable place. When you are tired, you can go to a cafe or a teahouse. The rainy West Lake is brighter than the sunny West Lake. Fortunately, just after the spring rain, the ink-like West Lake is slowly unfolding to us. Everyone in old Hangzhou knows that peaches bring willows, which is a tradition handed down by Bai Juyi when he was a secretariat. As soon as I entered Bai Causeway from the broken bridge, I felt suddenly enlightened.
Rain moistens the river bank, washes the peach blossoms brightly and dyes the willow trees green. Ying Ying's clear water reflects peach blossoms, and bloom, Shui Ying, is delicate and charming. "Peach blossoms on the shore are dipped in water", and the West Lake is like a beauty in the water. In the early morning of spring, the mist on the lake is like gauze, and the smoke on the embankment is like clouds. Walking among flowers and birds is even more fascinating. It's just that broken bridges are too common. After walking, I feel that the broken bridge has passed. Sitting on the ribbon bridge, watching the West Lake sparkling and flashing green, smashed by oars, I can't help but feel relaxed and intoxicated in this green. Tired of walking, there are cafes or teahouses everywhere by the lake. It's not bad to sit and watch the West Lake in spring.
Travel tips
Strolling through Bai Causeway, the most beautiful route starts from the broken bridge, you can go to Pinghu Autumn Moon, and you can see the lonely mountain, lake view and spring scenery. If you go in the opposite direction, the scenery will be terrible. Because there are many buildings at the broken bridge. In addition, there are cruise ships along the embankment, which can take people to visit the West Lake. In addition, you can choose to take a walk in the southern scenic spot around the lake. From Jinyong Park-Qian Memorial Hall-Liulang Wenying-Changqiao Park. On this line, the most beautiful scenery is willow waves and warblers.
Prince Bay rides happily to the sea of flowers.
In the West Lake, you can feel the pleasure of riding happily. Car rental spots can be seen everywhere by the lake. For the journey of flowers, we first arrived at Prince's Bay, a park in the West Lake. After the spring rain these days, besides tulips, cherry blossoms are also in full bloom. I saw that the garden was full of flowers and colorful clouds, and sometimes there were streams and clear springs dotted among them, attracting couples dressed in white gauze to capture the best moments in the garden.
Walking out of Prince's Bay, the trip to Su Causeway is another kind of carefree. Su Causeway is quiet, and the peach blossoms and weeping willows are more magnificent than Bai Causeway. Time is Ma Pingchuan, time is galloping, and the spring breeze is blowing in your face, which is very leisurely.
Travel tips
Tulips in Taiziwan can bloom until mid-April. Late cherry blossoms can still bloom in early April. Park tickets 10 yuan. Hangzhou Garden is the most flowery place in Hangzhou, but the landscape is a bit artificial.
When renting a bicycle in Hangzhou, the deposit is usually 200 yuan. The rental fee ranges from 1 hour to 10 yuan to 5 yuan. If you don't want to go back, you can find the "Easy Tour Pavilion", which has 30 rental outlets.
You can also ride wild Yang Gongdi.
The restored original ecological landscape of the ancient West Lake is quiet, deep, beautiful and full of wild interest, which is the most prosperous natural landscape in the West Lake. On the Yang Gongdi, there are dense buttonwood trees on both sides. On the west side of the dike, by the West Lake, Metasequoia and pine trees cover the sky. There are no flowers here, but it is full of green. In the forest, I saw squirrels jumping up and down. Qu Yuan in Yang Gongdi has a long history. "Qu Yuan" was originally a government-run restaurant in the Southern Song Dynasty, and it was named after the summer lotus. However, the winding bridge in the garden leads to many beautiful artistic conceptions. Looking from a distance, on the footbridge, when Su Causeway crosses obliquely, weeping willows fall, as if people are roaming in the world of picture scroll.
On the opposite side of Qu Yuan's wind and lotus is Zhao Gong Dike. Although the water here is not as ethereal as the West Lake, it is beautiful and unusual, and several new shiny white walls and tiles make people feel relaxed and happy.
Travel tips
Because Zhao Gong Dike is a highway around the lake, there are many vehicles coming and going. In Quyuan Fenghe, you can have a barbecue, and the cost of renting a stove is about 50 yuan. You can bring your own food.
Xiling printing factory sees the most charming lakes and mountains.
Some people say that Gushan is the essence of the West Lake, and Xiling Printing Society is the essence of the essence. Xiling printing plant not only has the charm of stone and stone passed down from ancient times, but also sits on the whole West Lake, which is the most charming lake view. I have been to Hangzhou several times before, but I have never been to Xiling Printing Factory. This time, at the strong suggestion of a "Hangzhou insider", I came to Xiling Printing Factory near the West Lake. Walking along the building outside the building, I suddenly saw a small moon gate on the side of the road with four small words written on it: Xiling Seal Society. White walls and blue tiles enclose the printing house into a yard, which makes this closed garden look exquisite, elegant and quiet. Only this simple white wall and blue tiles will separate the noise by the West Lake from the wall.
The layout of Xiling Printing Factory is as dense and orderly as management printing. From the southern foot of the lonely mountain to the top of the mountain, pavilions, cloisters, etc. In the forest atmosphere, there is a strong artistic charm and bookishness of epigraphy everywhere. Here, it is the best in lakes and mountains, and it is the essence of Gushan Garden.
On the south side of the top of the mountain is the famous "Zhao Si Pavilion". Zhao Si Pavilion has windows on all sides, but there are no trees on the side facing the lake, so you can see the tide from the window, which is very open. There is a couplet on the front column of the pavilion: the city walls are all under the eaves, and the lakes and mountains are all in sight. It should be regarded as the truest portrayal of "Brother Sizhao". People who go to the Zhao Si Pavilion are always frequent visitors, sitting for half a day, just to get a panoramic view of the most charming scenery of the West Lake on this lonely peak.
Sit by the window, have a cup of tea and push the window to overlook. The eaves outside the building and the charm of the West Lake complement each other, and the West Lake outside the window is particularly moving in a piece of water vapor. In the distance, peaches and willows are graceful, and unconsciously put forward that "there are feelings all around, and mountains are surrounded by water; Heart to heart, people to people.
Travel tips
It's just outside the building, next to the building. It is easy to find. Zhao Si Pavilion closes at 5: 30 every day, so if you want to have tea in it, please pay attention to the time. Tea 10 yuan cup.
A cup of green tea in meijiawu has mountains and rivers.
"Ten Li Mei Wu is full of tea fragrance" is the truest portrayal of meijiawu. Especially now is the season when Longjing is listed before the Ming Dynasty, and Shili Meiwu is even more picturesque. Meijiawu, located in the west of Hangzhou, is one of the main producing areas of Longjing tea. "Drinking West Lake in the mountains and producing Longjing in the fog" vividly summarizes the growth environment and natural conditions of Longjing tea. The sun shines on the tea tree through the mist, crystal clear and full of vitality. Looking at this tea garden, I couldn't help going in, picking some new tea and holding the spring scenery of meijiawu in my hand.
Now meijiawu, full of spring, with a hint of new green, shines quietly in the afternoon sun. Of course, if you go to meijiawu, you have to eat farmhouse meals. If you meet a star, prove that this restaurant tastes authentic. Samsung stands for the highest standards. As it happens, because I covet the scenery, I chose the best "white bachelor" in this area. What a coincidence, it's Samsung.
This chicken pot is an indispensable delicacy when you come to meijiawu. This free-range pheasant has not been seen for a long time. Tender chicken, yellow chicken soup, dried green bamboo shoots, a must. After a full meal, no one wants to get up. Who wants to leave? Some spread out the card table, some drank tea and chatted, enjoying the lazy sunshine in the afternoon. Knocking on melon seeds and chatting with the teahouse owner about this mountain and this tea ... isn't it soon?
Travel tips
At present, Longjing tea in meijiawu is mostly Longjing tea before Ming Dynasty, and the price ranges from 1.200 yuan to 1.500 yuan. In a few days, Longjing tea will be listed tomorrow, and the price will drop by one or two in 700 yuan. Take bus No.324 and Line No.5 to meijiawu.
Maojiabao for wanton happiness
Wolong Bridge in Yang Gongdi is in the west of Yinxiu Bridge, which is a scenic spot of Maojiabu. Walking on the winding path built with wooden boards among bamboo bushes and reeds, or sitting quietly in a thatched pavilion listening to the wind, running and jumping in the spring sunshine, the calligraphy of "going into battle lightly" will live in front of you. When I came to Maojiabu, I realized that this is a new place for Hangzhou people to taste tea. When meijiawu was flooded by foreign tourists, the clever Hangzhou people had already retired and hid in Maojiabu for fun. Actually, I found this place by accident. I found it by accident in a taxi coming back from meijiawu. When I got off the bus to see the scenery, I didn't expect to like it at once. Maojiabu faces the tea garden. The most unforgettable thing is the pool of water here, the peach blossoms on the shore and the green pebbles on the shore. You can catch tadpoles and small fish with a net bag here. Children who grew up in the city have never seen these unless they are happy. So this is the favorite of many children in Hang Cheng. Bring a tablecloth, pile up some snacks and sit around the stream for a picnic. Eat a roll and pack up. Or you can't help but roll up your sleeves and give it a try when you see that tea farmers are busy. They pinched some tender tea and threw it into the bamboo basket, which was also full of fragrance.
Travel tips
There is no large-scale farmhouse scenic spot like meijiawu in Maojiabu, but the food in the farmhouse is delicious, and almost all the nearby farmhouses are open to the public. The most famous "Maojiabu Stewed Chicken" in Maojiabu is definitely worth a taste. Although the price of each chicken in 60 yuan is a little high, it is nothing in such a beautiful scenery.
What else is there to miss about the lake view?
Whenever people in Hangzhou go to a teahouse, they can soak for half a day. However, for foreign tourists, drinking tea is not the ultimate goal. Being able to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the West Lake in your leisure time is the real meaning. During these days in the West Lake, the three of us have not been idle, and we have discovered the ultimate scenic spot of Hangzhou embracing the West Lake for you.
The most charming: Zhao Si Pavilion of Xiling Printing Company, of course. You can see the panoramic view of the West Lake. Needless to say.
Nearest: Lakeside cabin, known as the teahouse closest to the West Lake. Built by the lake, the transparent glass windows seem to be only a stone's throw away from the West Lake.
The most cost-effective: right next to the lakeside residence, there is a large terrace teahouse built by the lake. It is only a few centimeters away from the West Lake. The camphor trees here are gloomy, and the most important thing is that the price is cheap, and the tea money is only half that of the lakeside residence, 25 yuan.
The most traditional: the teahouse where tigers run. Drinking tea here is the unchanging taste of Hangzhou for thousands of years.
Most popular: In Hangzhou, everyone has their own West Lake. The West Lake is actually hidden in everyone's heart, because Hangzhou people have the same attitude towards the West Lake and tea, and they all need to taste it slowly. Therefore, the Qingteng Teahouse is the most popular teahouse we have found. Spend tens of yuan, eat tea at will, soak for a day and taste the life of local people in Hangzhou.
The most photogenic: the lake view around the West Lake State Guesthouse and the old-fashioned concept of knowing taste are the most photogenic. So you can have a morning tea in Zhiweiguan, order an authentic "cat ear", and then pick up the camera to record the beautiful West Lake.
Hang Cheng scenery not to be missed.
A carefree heart: Everyone we asked in Hangzhou said that the scenery of the West Lake is different at any time. The West Lake is not for fun, so you need a carefree heart and savor it.
Go to West Lake World: Although she is the sister of Shanghai's new world, despite the neon flashing, the West Lake World, which is surrounded by the West Lake, is quiet and elegant, with cafes, bars and restaurants gathering. Looking at the hidden mountains and beautiful waters, she feels another fashion.
Gourmet: Gourmet reflects spring. The red and green of ham and broad beans, the glittering and translucent of shrimp in Longjing, the red meat of mullet in Qianjiang and the historical legend of Dongpo meat are all full of poetic meaning of "Broken bridge and residual snow, xiao yue in West Lake". "Drunken Shrimp" and "Drunken Waist Flower" are different in flavor from Japanese thorns, delicate and mellow, and have the flavor of mountains and rivers on the West Lake. Glutinous rice lotus root is also very good. Lotus root slices are not soft or hard in taste, with thick honey juice and full of osmanthus flavor. The outer layer is gluten, and the inside is still soft and rotten, refreshing and sweet. Painan and braised bamboo shoots are the most Hangzhou-style dishes. The former is the first-class ham cut into mahjong tiles and steamed with rock sugar, and the latter is the bamboo shoots cut in the south of the Yangtze River, which are fried and stewed thoroughly with soy sauce and sugar.

In Bai Causeway, you must go to Xiling Printing Factory for tea. In the afternoon, starting from Taiziwan, we went to Huagang to see fish, and finally visited Su Causeway. In addition, visiting Yang Gongdi is also an option for this day.
The next day: I went straight to meijiawu, where I stayed for a whole day, eating farmhouse meals and tasting Longjing tea. If you can't run far, the alternate destination is Maojiabu.

Diet introduction:
Hangzhou cuisine belongs to Zhejiang cuisine in China's eight major cuisines, and "refreshing and unique" is the biggest feature of Hangzhou cuisine. Su Dongpo, a great poet in the Song Dynasty, once praised that "there is no Hang Cheng in the world" and had an allusion to "getting off the horse at the smell of incense".
Famous dishes in Hangzhou include beggar chicken, Dongpo meat, Songsaozi soup, West Lake vinegar fish, Longjing shrimp, West Lake shepherd soup, braised bamboo shoots and so on. Dongpo meat is fat, but not greasy. Chicken is tender and refreshing. West Lake vinegar fish is delicious. You must try it when you come to Hangzhou.
Boutique recommendation
Louwailou
The building outside Gushan Road is a place to eat hangzhou dishes. In fact, it is worth a visit just because of its history and architectural style. Louwailou is the oldest hotel in Hangzhou, where countless great men have lived. The hotel is located on a remote mountain. While tasting Hangzhou food, you can also enjoy the beautiful scenery of the West Lake. Here you can eat the most authentic Hangzhou cuisine, especially Dongpo pork. The story of Louwailou is true. The glutinous square meat in a small red clay crock is excellent in color, fragrance, taste and shape, and the instant taste is not something that any restaurant can make. The prices here are also quite scary, such as a beggar chicken 88 yuan, a pot of Longjing shrimp 89 yuan and a West Lake vinegar fish 58 yuan, but the diners are always in an endless stream.
Now there are red mud and Zhang Shengji, and their tastes can compete with them. Compared with the building outside the building, the price is much cheaper, but you also need to make an appointment 24 hours in advance.
Address: No.30 Gushan Road, 87969023, 87969682
