besides the west lake, what other places in Hangzhou are worth visiting?
1
First of all, I want to talk about the West Lake.
People who travel abroad may think that the West Lake is just a lake. West Lake is divided into inner West Lake and outer West Lake. Most people go to the outer West Lake, which is very crowded. I suggest you go to Lixi Lake. Around the West Lake, there are the famous Ten Scenes of the West Lake and the New Ten Scenes of the West Lake, that is, the broken bridge, the Leifeng Tower, the San Tan Yin Yue and other scenic spots that we often hear.
Nanshan Road and Beishan Street are the places with the most tourists. If you bypass these two roads, go to Yang Gongdi and ride a bicycle along Yang Gongdi. There are few people, the scenery is beautiful and the air is particularly good. You can also go to Longjing, Tiger Running Spring, Silk Museum and other scenic spots along the route to feel the unique atmosphere of Jiangnan.
Personally, if you want to go to the West Lake, you must find a place with few people. After all, taking pictures is also very nice.

Tell me about other places besides the West Lake.
I won't talk about the scenery around the West Lake.
You can visit the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. In Gongshu District, you can take a boat from Wulin Square (the most downtown place in Hangzhou) to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. You can swipe your bus card or coin it for 2 yuan, which takes about 2 minutes. There are also many boats, which run every 5-1 minutes. You can enjoy the scenery along the way, which is beautiful.
tangqi ancient town. We all know Xitang, Wuzhen and other ancient towns, and Tangqi is also a small ancient town. It is said that it is the source of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in Hangzhou, which is relatively small and also sells snacks. If you can go in the mature season of loquat, it would be best. The loquat in Tangqi is extremely delicious.
riverside cherry blossom runway. There is a plastic runway beside the river, where cherry blossoms are planted. It's beautiful in cherry blossom season, but in non-cherry blossom season, you can feel the enthusiasm and passion of those who like running. There are many men, women and children running every night.
Xiaoshan xianghu. The fame of Xianghu Lake is far less than that of West Lake, but Xianghu Lake is bigger than West Lake, with good surrounding environment, few people and beautiful scenery. If you go to Xianghu, or you can go to Xiaoshan amusement park, of course, it is similar to other city amusement parks, and there is no special place.
riverside Song Cheng. As the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, the bustling scene of Lin 'an in the old days has appeared in Song Cheng. I haven't seen it inside. The ticket used to be 3 yuan. I don't know what the fare is now. According to my friends who have been there, it's ok.
If you like climbing mountains, you are very welcome in Hangzhou. You can climb from Xiaohe Mountain to Shililang and then to north peak of West Lake, and from Yuquan Campus of Zhejiang University to north peak in short distance. After all, the West Lake is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there are really many people who want to climb mountains. If you are in summer, remember to prevent mosquitoes.
If you believe in Buddhism, you can also go to Lingyin Temple, Shangtianzhu, Xiatianzhu and other temples to worship.
If you want to see the development of Hangzhou New Town, you can go near Qianjiang New Town, which is basically the most prosperous place in new Hangzhou.
If you want to go to the wholesale market, Sijiqing, Jiubao and other places are inseparable.
Of course, there are many places worth visiting in Hangzhou, such as Xixi Wetland, Daqinggu, Zhejiang University, Alibaba and Netease. Hangzhou is a place where you don't want to go when you go. Find a quiet place and drink Longjing tea for an afternoon.
entrance to the scenic spot (opposite to the entrance is Qiantang River):
Further inside, the small bridge flows like a fairyland.
The scenic spot is winding up along this stream (the scenic spot is completely free)
The scenic spot is lush and tree-lined, and the hillside in the distance is full of tea trees (not far from the famous Longjing Village)
There are all tall Metasequoias along the road, and wedding photos are taken by chance.
A temple halfway up the mountain is completely covered by Chai Fei. If I don't tell you, can you tell it was taken in April?
It's almost the top of the mountain, and many folk houses are used as tea rooms, just like our farmhouse in the north.
At last, it's a candid wedding photo. This is a concentrated and essential scenic spot, so many wedding photos are taken!
Jiuxi Tobacco Tree is one of the ten new scenic spots in West Lake, commonly known as "Jiuxi Eighteen Rivers". Located in the mountains to the west of the West Lake, under the cockscomb. Longjing in the north and Qiantang River in the south. Originating at the foot of Yangmeiling Mountain in Wengjiashan, it flows into Qianjiang River through Qingwan, Hongfa, Tangjia, Xiaokang, Foshi, Baizhang, Yunqi, Qingtou and Fangjia Jiuxi. Eighteen streams refer to many small streams and flowing springs. Jiuxi and Shibajian meet in front of Xixi Restaurant under Bajue Mountain. All the way, the mountains are stacked, the tea gardens are scattered, the peaks turn around, the flowing water is pure, and the mountains are full of birds. Sunny days are delicious, cloudy days are misty.
Traffic information: Jiuxi Yanshu is about 6 or 7 kilometers away from the urban area. It goes all the way west along Qiantang River, and there are many buses that basically stop in the middle. Therefore, tourists are advised to take the bus directly without taking a taxi.
Take bus No.27 and get off at the terminal. From north to south, walk to Jiuxi Station or Manlong Guiyu via Jiuxi Yanshu Park. It is 6 kilometers long and takes 2 hours to walk. In addition, you can also take bus No.2, K4, 38, 54, Tour No.5 and Holiday No.5 from south to north to the "Jiuxi" station on the Qiantang River, and then walk to Longjing or Manlong Guiyu via Jiuxi Yanshu Park. Or from the northeast to the southwest, from Manlong Guiyu via Yangmeiling or from the zoo via Hupao Houshan to Jiuxi Yanshu Park.
I came to Hangzhou after graduation in 215, and I still like this city from the bottom of my heart.
besides the west lake, there are still many places worth visiting in Hangzhou. Let me first talk about the places I have been.
Xianghu Lake, located in Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou, is called the sister lake of West Lake. However, it is not as famous as the West Lake, and people who know about Xianghu are basically people from Hangzhou and its surrounding areas. However, the low popularity has also made Xianghu quieter and more "small and jasper". Moreover, in addition to its own lake scenery, Xianghu Lake is next to Hangzhou Polar Ocean Park, hangzhou paradise, rotten apple paradise and other places of play, and the traffic is also very convenient, and it is the terminal of Metro Line 1.
2. Yunqi Bamboo Trail
The mountain of Yunqi Bamboo Trail is not very high, but the bamboo forest at the entrance is really impressive. Bamboo shoots straight into the sky, and the air in the bamboo forest is intoxicating and fresh. After going up and down the mountain for more than three hours, you will see many century-old trees marked with their age, especially the Liquidambar formosana, which is more than a thousand years old. There is also Yunqi Temple on the mountain. You can visit it and cleanse your soul.
In fact, there are 18 streams in Jiuxi, 1-mile Langya and Yunqi Bamboo Trail next to each other. These places are in the mountains to the west of the West Lake, so people with good physical strength can play continuously. Surrounded by low mountains and dense tea gardens, there is authentic West Lake Longjing tea, and there are many farmhouses in Longjing Village, which is convenient for eating and drinking. However, if you sell tea, you should be cautious, because the price difference of tea is still quite big, so as to avoid being cheated.
These two islands are located on the Fuchun River. Xingsha Island is closer to Hangzhou and Tongzhou Island is farther away. There used to be many amusement facilities in Xingsha Island Garden, but now they are basically abandoned. However, you can still experience the beach, a thousand acres of lotus pond and various picking gardens. The resources are very rich, and you need a ferry to go to the island! Tongzhou Island is smaller and quieter. You can experience the fun of kayaking in the kayaking club.
5. Liangzhu National Heritage Park
On July 6, 219, the site of Liangzhu Ancient City in China was approved to be included in the World Heritage List at the World Heritage Conference held in Baku. This will be another cultural card of Hangzhou and attract more people to Hangzhou. However, in order to better protect this cultural site, it is necessary to make an appointment on the platform in advance before you can get tickets on the spot. I went during the 11th period, because I didn't have an appointment, so I couldn't get in, so I had to stroll around the periphery. However, it was shocking to see the surrounding layout and explain the short film. Before 5 years ago, the culture of this place was so developed and mature.)
The city of Hangzhou is still relatively strong in tourism. The West Lake is only a representative business card for tourism, and there are many other places to play. I look forward to your arrival.

Hello, everyone, I'm Doudou.
I went to Hangzhou in February and stayed for eight or nine days, because my wife went to Hangzhou to study for a few days. By the way, she took me with her to play and have a look.
To go to Hangzhou, of course, I took a trip to the West Lake. After all, the West Lake is so famous that I thought it was just a lake. After I went there, I found that there are many scenic spots in the West Lake, which are so big that it is difficult to see them all in one day, so it took me two days to go to the West Lake.
However, after I have been to Hangzhou once, I think it is very good. If I have the chance, I will go there again and take a look at the places I haven't turned around.
Let's talk about the places we have visited. Besides the West Lake, we have also visited the Botanical Garden, Tiger Run Park, Zoo, Hangzhou Natural Museum, Tangqi Ancient Town, hangzhou dishes Museum, Baguatian Ruins, Taipingfang Lane and so on.
Let's talk about the places you have been.
after the first day, I went to visit the nearby famous street, Taipingfang Lane. After I walked in, I saw all kinds of century-old shops, besides, there were all kinds of food, use and play, and some of them sold century-old skin care products.
There is also a food court. Personally, I think the food court is just a walk, a stroll and a look. If you really like it, buy some. Because I have been to some places, I feel that the food courts all over the country are similar and nothing special is new.
and in the food court, food is generally expensive.
On the way to the snack street again, there was a small shop converted from a residential building, selling stewed onions, and I bought one for five yuan, which was really delicious.
but it didn't exceed 2 meters, and we arrived at the food court, where the stewed onions cost ten yuan each.
I haven't been to many places, but the best food street is Zhongshan Road Food Street in Nanning, with reasonable prices and various varieties.
Let's talk about Hangzhou. It's good to see some century-old shops and feel the cultural atmosphere there.
Then the second stop came to the Botanical Garden.
Because I was born and raised in the north, in winter, all the flowers and trees withered, leaving only a bare one, so it was really a surprise to see so much green in the cold season.
and walking inside, there are also large pieces of merlin and many plum blossoms, which are really beautiful, and the red plum blossom has become the most dazzling color.
It was raining lightly that day, and someone else was walking in the snow, Xun Mei. I think it is appropriate to call it walking in the rain and Xun Mei.
But plum blossoms in the rain are as beautiful as watching ink paintings in the south of the Yangtze River.
I also saw the scenery of small bridges and flowing water, which can't be seen in winter in the north. The rivers in winter in the north are basically frozen.
I forgot the tickets for the Botanical Garden, which may be between 1 yuan and 2 yuan. Anyway, it's very cheap. I really strongly recommend to have a look. Don't look at such cheap tickets, but there are many places to visit.
When I went there, I caught up with the intermittent light rain. My wife and I walked slowly on the forest path with umbrellas, chatting while walking slowly and looking around.
In short, going to the Botanical Garden brought me many surprises.
When searching for the Raiders on the Internet, some people said that the zoo is also worth seeing, and the tickets are very cheap. I don't remember exactly, it is probably between 1 and 2. Compared with zoos in other places, this ticket price is really super value.
But it rained almost every day during the time when I went there, so it was raining when I went to the zoo. Some animals didn't come out, such as giraffes.
But when I saw the panda, I looked very cute.
In short, it is also a place worth seeing. If you want to see the giant panda, you should miss the noon time, because the giant panda will have a rest at noon, and you can only see it motionless and sleeping.
The first time I went there was in the afternoon. The giant pandas were all active, eating bamboo, and playing by themselves, so it was very interesting to watch.
I went to see the giant panda specially for the second time, and caught up with noon. As a result, not only the giant panda was taking a nap, but also raccoons and the like were taking a nap.
Let's talk about the Nature Museum.
If you haven't been to other cities' natural museums, it's still worth visiting. You only need to bring your ID card, and you don't need tickets. It's also very interesting.
You can learn something about nature, and you can also see some animal specimens. In it, you can see the arctic fox specimens. The white fluffy little thing is particularly cute, which is probably the cutest "animal" I have ever seen.
However, if I have been to the natural museums in other cities, I don't recommend going again, because I have been to the natural museums in my own city and then to the natural museums in Hangzhou, and I feel that the natural museums in each city are similar.
Tangqi Ancient Town
Personally, it's not bad. There are many shops selling special food, so you can try it. The walls of the houses in the ancient town are white, which is unique to the south and rare in the north, so it's very interesting.
oh, I forgot to mention that Tangqi ancient town doesn't need tickets, and it's not bad to walk around.
I also went to Tiger Run Park.
I forgot the tickets for Tiger Run Park. It's about a dozen yuan. Anyway, they are all very cheap.
This is also a highly recommended place to visit. Lingyin Temple is the place where Jigong became a monk, and Tiger Run Park is the place where Jigong was buried after his death.
There are Tiger Run Springs, as well as Master Hongyi's stupa and so on, and the places inside are also very large, which is absolutely worth the fare! Absolute value!
the scenery is really great.
I remember there is an 8-year-old or 6-year-old tree in it. Standing under the tree, I thought, this tree has witnessed the similarity of flowers year after year, witnessed the changes of the times, and touched it as if it had touched the traces of history.
Let's talk about the hangzhou dishes Museum.
Many museums are all about culture, history, nature, etc. This is the first one I have been to.
before you go to the museum, you should fill your stomach, otherwise you can't help but drool when you see all kinds of dishes in it.
There are not only models and introductions of dishes, but also simple production introductions, and you can also see the food culture and history of the Grand Canal in Hangzhou.
for people who like delicious food, it is well worth visiting.
I also went to the Wu Shan Grand View. I don't know exactly whether it is called this name. Anyway, I saw these big characters written on the wall.
I went to Hangzhou that night, because it happened to be the Lantern Festival, and I saw on the Internet that there was a lantern festival on that mountain, so I went there with admiration. I arrived late at night and found that the lantern festival was over ...
There are also Baguatian ruins.
