I have walked through Hangzhou for you, and there are places I really don't want to go again

Hangzhou is finally not hot, I walked along the Grand Canal and found... not every place is worth Citywalk's 🌽p15-16 1⃣Xiangji Temple☺ Get out of Xiangji Temple subway station, walk 400 meters (the closest point to the subway in the whole line, greatly reducing your walking distance☑). The Xiangji Temple, which is quiet in the bustling buildings, is not crowded on holidays, and the vegetarian food here is so delicious that I always double show off, and the bracelets are also very 🔥. 🌽p8-9 2⃣Dadou Road Cultural District☹ Leaving Xiangji Temple to Xiaohedirect Street will pass Dadou Road, just pass by, don't feel heartache if you don't stroll around, the whole street is like a deluxe version of the night market, no need to stay for a long time. 🌽p1-7 3⃣Xiaohedirect Street☺ In the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, Xiaohedirect Street was a gathering place for workers along the canal. Nowadays, there are treasure shops everywhere, and the slogans of each shop are very catchy. With the white walls and black tiles of the streets and alleys, Xiaohedirect Street can hold the workers for 100 years without reason✅. 🌽p10-11 4⃣Xiaohe Park☺ Across from Xiaohedirect Street is Xiaohe Park, an industrial style park transformed from warehouses and oil pipes. It may not feel much in other places, but in this old street area, it is like green pepper in twice-cooked pork🫑, just to relieve your aesthetic fatigue✅. 🌽p12-13 5⃣Gongchen Bridge☺ The longest and highest stone arch bridge in Hangzhou, the 'chen' of Hangzhou Asian Games mascot 'Chenchen' comes from here, which shows its status in Hangzhou. It only takes two minutes to cross the bridge, there is no reason not to go✅, Gongchen Bridge at night is also worth a look. 🌽p14 6⃣Qiaoxi Cultural District☺☹ Located on the west side of Gongchen Bridge, Hangzhou Arts and Crafts Museum, China Umbrella Museum, China Knife, Scissors and Sword Museum, are all near Qiaoxi. If it rains, it's better to come to Qiaoxi to visit the museum. 👉Please note that the museums start to close gradually around 4 pm🫣. The ancient buildings of Qiaoxi have been largely destroyed, although they have been repaired, but they are mixed with too much modern atmosphere, so compared to the street view of Qiaoxi, I recommend going to the nearby canal to take a walk and blow the wind🌬. 🚩Hangzhou is a multi-faceted city, the accent is always hidden in the streets and alleys, come to the old streets of Hangzhou for a City walk, no need to walk fast, don't care about time, find the buffer zone between the heart and the world, let the surprise actively approach you, it will be much easier than touring West Lake.
