The poems I memorized as a child have come to life.

"Grassy, warblers fly in February, willows brush the embankment, drunk on spring smoke." 🌳 I never understood the artistic conception of the poem until I came to Hangzhou's West Lake and saw the legendary Orioles Singing in the Willows. 📍Address West Lake Scenic Area - Orioles Singing in the Willows 🚙Transportation: 🚌Bus routes 12, 13, and 14 to Qingbo Gate 🚇Subway Line 7 to Wushan Square Station, Exit B5, then a 500m walk. 🚴Shared bikes and taxis are also good options. 🅿️For those driving, parking is available at the Orioles Singing in the Willows parking lot. 📷Photo Spots 1️⃣Inside the Orioles Singing in the Willows park gate, rows of willows create a sense of depth, perfect for photos. 2️⃣On the way to the lake, the combination of February orchids, weeping willows, and the small river makes for beautiful compositions. 3️⃣The walkway by West Lake 🌈 is a great spot for taking photos looking up at the sky. If you're lucky enough to catch a gust of wind, you can capture the feeling of "smoke willows." 4️⃣For photos facing West Lake, the benches by the Imperial Wharf 🪑 are highly recommended for their artistic ambiance.
