PRESLEY VALDEZ

The best and most beautiful route for a morning walk at West Lake Citywalk

This route has been walked countless times this winter, and you must take it when you come to West Lake during the Spring Festival. Route: Broken Bridge—Pinghu Autumn Moon—Costa Coffee—Zhongshan Park—Xiling Seal Art Society—Xiling Bridge—Su Xiaoxiao's Tomb—The waterside platform down from the parking lot—Su Causeway—Walk along the small path on the left—Su Causeway in Spring Dawn—Walk to the end—Jingci Temple (for flower appreciation) This route is suitable for those who can arrive at the Broken Bridge around 7 a.m., when there are few people, and it's actually suitable for walking whether it's foggy or sunny. 1. Broken Bridge You must walk across the Broken Bridge when you come to West Lake, or how can you say you've been to West Lake? From the bridge, you can have a distant view of the beautiful scenery of West Lake 2. Pinghu Autumn Moon There is a bridge in front of the Pinghu Autumn Moon stele, the slender kind, which is great for taking photos, and the sun will rise just above your head, which is really amazing. Then walk to the waterside platform of Pinghu Autumn Moon, where you can have a distant view of Leifeng Pagoda, Chenghuang Pavilion, and the city center. 3. The dead trees next to the Wind and Wave Pavilion There are some dead trees next to the Wind and Wave Pavilion, wait for a boat to come by and capture the sun, dead trees, boats, and a full sense of artistic conception 4. The tea-drinking spot next to Costa Coffee (Hangzhou Xiling branch) You need to move a table and set your phone to 0.5x Remember to move it back after taking photos (check my homepage if unclear) However, it's best to get there before 7:30 when there are fewer people and it's easier to take good photos. 5. The benches near Zhongshan Park When the sun comes out, you can take photos against the light and capture people in the shimmering golden light. 6. Xiling Seal Art Society Xiling Seal Art Society opens at 8:30, and by the time you get there, it's about time to have a look around, the scenery is really nice, and you can also check in at the entrance 7. The popular corner on Gushan Road Taking a photo here in the morning is really full of artistic conception and very photogenic. 8. Xiling Bridge On Xiling Bridge, you can photograph the spire of Beigaofeng, as well as the Baojiao Pagoda on the gem, and in the morning, passing boats add to the ambiance. 9. Su Causeway Walking on Su Causeway, you can take your time, no need to rush, you can enjoy the winter sun, the sky is also very blue, and you can capture the scene of a boat 'full of clear dreams pressing the starry river.' You must walk close to the handrail to see it. 10. Jingci Temple If Lingyin Temple is too crowded, you can visit this royal temple, Jingci Temple, where you can listen to the Nanping evening bell, admire the plum blossoms eat the vegetarian roast goose and dried tofu inside, cheap and delicious, enter from the left side for vegetarian meals. Best visiting time: 7 a.m. - 12 noon Transportation: Walking Actually, this route is really great, highly recommended!
