[2024 Hangzhou Attraction] Travel Guide for Gushan (Updated Dec)

A trip to Hangzhou, finally understood the West Lake in Su Shi's writing

📍The most beautiful corner of Gushan Road The sunrise here in the morning makes the lake look particularly beautiful, with layers of orange shimmering on the water. Because of the morning fog, you can take these ink painting-like pictures of Leifeng Pagoda as you walk along the West Lake. 📍Suilu After shooting Quyuan Fenghe, you can go to the intersection of Beishan Street and Yanggong Causeway on the opposite side. There is a staircase that can go up the mountain to Suilu to shoot the Leifeng Pagoda at a long distance. You need a telephoto lens to shoot here. I used 70-200 to crop the picture when I came back. The camera I used was Sony r4a with over 60 million pixels, which is very useful after retouching. 📍Sudi Stele I took these pictures around 7 o'clock in the morning. There were no cars and people. These two pictures are the road in front and the road behind. I just snapped them together. 📍Quyuan Fenghe Find the round door hole 'Liaoting', a classic shooting spot. Go to the opposite side of the lake, there are red maples on the left and right of the pavilion, with the reflection of the lake, which is also very photogenic. You can see this stone bridge as you go along, and the sunrise in the morning is also very photogenic. 📍Changqiao Park There are several places where you can shoot standing on the bridge, and you can also shoot on the shore. I took pictures in several directions in the original picture, just share one, friends who go can look at more angles.

Sharing the latest lotus 'intelligence' from Hangzhou, the lotuses in Solitary Mountain Park have bloomed, but for now, most are just 'young lotuses showing their sharp tips'. Amidst the verdant green, the red buds that are revealed carry a sense of freshness and delicate beauty. It is estimated that a large area will bloom around mid-July. From Xiling Bridge to the Zhongshan Memorial Pavilion, the entire lakeside bay is densely packed with lotuses, and moreover, they are of excellent variety, known as the 'West Lake Red Lotus', with large flowers that are particularly valuable for viewing. The fine rain is like a woven curtain, strolling along Solitary Mountain Road, the winding North Mountain Street unfolds before your eyes. A gentle breeze lightly brushes over the emerald lotus leaves, like a soft whispering chant, adding a touch of tenderness and haziness to this summer lotus pond. The rain grows heavier, and the crystal-clear raindrops dance and converge on the broad lotus leaves, eventually sliding off gently, dropping into the water, and stirring up circle after circle of delicate ripples. The lotuses in the rain, without the flamboyance of the bright sun, possess a unique tranquility and elegance in the rain, refreshing the mind and spirit, making one forget the worldly noise. This soft rain, bringing not only the freshness of summer but also the romance within the verdure.

Visiting West Lake in the New Year, Su Causeway is crowded with people, and the plum blossoms on Solitary Hill are blooming

The beautiful scenery of West Lake in Hangzhou in the Year of the Dragon, the weather in Hangzhou these days is really good, everywhere is filled with the festive spirit of spring warmth and dragon horse spirit, the New Year in Hangzhou is another warm and sunny day, and the air visibility is very good, so I started walking from Bathing Goose Bay, passed through Rainbow Bridge to Yanggong Causeway, from Flower Harbor to Su Causeway, checked in at the six bridges of Su Causeway, walked to Beishan Street, and finally returned after tasting the plum blossoms of West Lake on Solitary Hill, the whole journey is about 5 kilometers, lasting 4.5 hours. The feeling along the way, first of all, the quietness of Bathing Goose Bay and the bustle of Su Causeway form a sharp contrast, I often come to West Lake, but like the second day of the lunar new year, the few people in Bathing Goose Bay still make me happy, as for Su Causeway, the crowded scene of cars and people, and the scene of people full on the bridge, can also be foreseen, because this is a must-visit place for tour groups. For the first time, I checked in at Weilu in Flower Harbor Park. This group of 'scenic waterfront garden buildings' centered on irregular pools is really photogenic, but because it was noon, the light and shadow were difficult to grasp, and a plum tree by the pavilion had also begun to bloom. In addition, a few red flowers had bloomed on an old plum tree next to the peony pavilion in the park, but a large-scale bloom is expected to take another week or two. The most beautiful place for plum blossoms is still Solitary Hill. As one of the three traditional places to appreciate plum blossoms in Hangzhou, the plums on Solitary Hill have always been full of literature and aesthetics. After checking in, I found that the current opening rate of plum blossoms on Solitary Hill is about 20%, and it is expected that it will enter the peak season in another week. The colors of the plum blossoms here are very rich, with yellow wintersweet, as well as red and pink plums. In addition, several green plums also have flower buds. Paired with the landscape of West Lake and the story of 'plum wife and crane son', it is worth recommending to visit Hangzhou in the New Year and appreciate the plums on Solitary Hill.
