Xueyan Former Residence Hangzhou

Hold it....Not done with Hangzhou yet.. After the brief tour of the Hupao spring, I realised I had a lot of time to kill... so, I headed to the former residence of Hi Xueyan.. Let's be honest, didn't know what to expect since it was my friends idea.. I assumed we will just be glancing at a lot of walls but I was so wrong... Getting There - Still lazy and trying to maximise sights per day, so a didi as usual... it took about 30 minutes drive from the Hupao spring. it is located at 18 YuanBao street, Shangcheng district, hangzhou Just like before.. QR code scan to book entry, costs 20 rmb for the residence alone. Attractions - Simply amazing to watch how the detailed design and nature coexisted in the residence.. you get a tour of the garden, courtyards, halls... lots of stone carvings and passages.. Food & Restaurants - There is a stop shop where you can grab cold drinks, cup noodles, some snacks.. this was a needed store as it was rather hot.. Shopping - vending machine for souvenirs.. This took about 1. 5 hours overall... Probably now is a good time to grab lunch (but no... heading on to Lingyun Temple..
