A fairyland hidden in the West Lake

A fairyland hidden in the West Lake|||- Li'an Temple is located in the heart of Hangzhou West Lake Scenic Area, surrounded by towering ancient trees, lush greenery, and continuous stairs. The ancient and magical lights on both sides flicker with warm light, which shines onto the steps. It is quiet and mysterious. Being in it, it feels like walking into the anime world of Firefly Forest. - About the history of Li'an Temple: It was first built in the Five Dynasties and flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Emperor Yongzheng allocated funds to expand the temple, and Emperor Qianlong also visited the temple many times to worship Buddha. Therefore, the road at the foot of the mountain of Li'an Temple was named No. 1 Qianlong Road, and there is also an imperial inscription on the main gate saying "Tree the Most Victorious Pagoda". It was once more famous than Lingyin Temple, but now it is secluded in a corner and is a quiet and niche place. — (Now there is a Cantonese restaurant, Jing'an Restaurant, which adds rich human flavor to this place.) - Recommend 3 walking routes and direct driving guide _ Walking route 1: From Jiuxi Road, walk from south to north, pass Linhai Pavilion and Jiuxi Yanshu along the way, and then walk north for 5 minutes to arrive. You can also take a shuttle bus from the entrance of Jiuxi Scenic Area to Li'an Temple. The ticket price is 12 yuan, which saves a lot of effort. - Walking route 2: Arrive at Longjing Village, take Longjing West Road to Jiuhong Pavilion, enjoy the scenery of Jiuxi Shibajian along the way, and after arriving at Jiuxi Yanshu, go north along Ganlong Road. - Walking route three: Park the car at Yangmeiling, walk along Ganlong Road from north to south along the stream, pass a Metasequoia forest, and continue walking for another 5-10 minutes to arrive. If you drive there, you need to make an appointment with Jing'an Restaurant in advance. After passing through, you can drive directly to the foot of the mountain gate and the restaurant staff will help you park.
