Spring Charm in Zhejiang's Hangzhou 🌸🏞️
#cherryblossom2024
Springtime in Hangzhou,
Is like a playful maiden. 💃
You eagerly await her arrival,
And then suddenly, she graces you with her presence, 🌼
You yearn for her,
But she doesn't come easy.
Strolling along the West Lake,
At first glance,
The water glistens, 💧
A vibrant green hue envelops everything, 🌿
Willow trees begin to bud, 🌱
The lakeside grass is lush and verdant, 💚
Swaying gracefully in the gentle breeze.
Flora and fauna proudly adorn the shores of the West Lake,
Birds sing melodiously from the branches, 🐦
Clusters of apricot blossoms embellish the lake's edge, 🌸
The air is infused with the delicate scent of flowers, 🌺
Magnolias grace the lake's shores, 🌼
Adding an extra layer of beauty to the already picturesque scene. 🏞️
Every year in March, the peach blossoms on the Bai Causeway will bloom in succession, and the willow trees on the Su Causeway will sprout new buds, forming a picture of peach red and willow green with the peach blossoms.
Gushan North Fangheting area and Zhongshan Memorial Pavilion around the main concentration of plum. April "cherry blossom rain" have fallen, Baita Park is amazing. 🍒 #Zhejiang #Hangzhou #WestLake #SpringBeauty #FloralSplendor #PeachBlossoms #CherryBlossoms

Wuzhen Jiangnan Water Town
The first impression of Jiangnan is probably the small bridges and flowing water. Among all the ancient towns in Jiangnan, Wuzhen is the top of the ancient towns in my mind.
Blue bricks and black tiles, the alley is deep and heart-warming. Regardless of rain or shine, as long as you step here and walk around on the bluestone slabs, you will feel as if you have seen the past and present of Wuzhen.
A must-experience cruise in Wuzhen is perfect for seeing the beautiful scenery from a different angle!
The night in Xizha is completely different from the day.
Whether you are sitting quietly by the river or walking along Walking in the ancient town. Just make sure me comfortable.

Lovely stay in Zhejiang
location : 丁卯桥路689号（亚太五金电器城）
This is hangting hotel in Zhejiang . The hotel is a bit tricky to find but not so difficult if you use navigation or a car . Prices are affordable and range between 200 RMB and 300 RMB . The staff are very helpful and polite . Rooms are neat and smell nice . There was enough space to move around in the room.It is a fairly new building so the facilities are well maintained. If you don’t mind being a bit away from the city center then you can choose to reside in this hotel . #zhejiang #hotelstaycation
Sunset spots at West Lake 🌅
#visithangzhou As West Lake remains the main attraction of Hangzhou, the best time to gaze at its beauty is sunset 🌅 ✨
I highly recommend walking to the side of the along Beishan Road 👌🏼 This is way less crowded than near Longxiangqiao and the sunset there with the mountains ⛰️ in the background and the boats on the lake is truly gorgeous✨
It’s also a popular spot for photography enthusiasts 📸 to snap the perfect golden hour shot over the lake 👌🏼

Hefang Street: Where Culture meets history ✨
#visithangzhou The street was built during the Southern Song Dynasty, a time when Hangzhou was the capital of Zhejiang Province.
The street is a popular attraction in Hangzhou filled with shops offering traditional snacks and food 🍜 as well as the famous Longjing tea 🍵 . This is also the perfect place to shop for Chinese style gifts 🪭 and souvenirs 🎐
It’s also a beautiful place for gazing at artisans at work with various types of traditional Chinese handicrafts 🖌️ such as calligraphy, paper cutting, painting 🖼️
Hefang street is also home to so many coffee shops ☕️ which are great spots to take a break from walking around. I also recommend checking out Hu Qing Tang, the biggest TCM pharmacy established since 1987 🫚

Xiaohe Street: A lovely area in Hangzhou 🏮
#visithangzhou A historical street at the intersection of three rivers lined with ancient Chinese style neighbourhoods🏮

Not a popular place some years ago, it became gradually commercialised with a plethora of coffee shops ☕️, restaurants 🍜& handicrafts 🪭 A charming contrast of the old v/s the new!
I highly recommend adding it to your Hangzhou itinerary 👌🏼It’s such a vibrant place which is also gorgeous at night with the lanterns lit 🏮✨

Colours of Spring in Hangzhou 💐
Blessed with the warm spring days lately, but also the beautiful blossoms popping up in parks across the city. It was my first time catching the colours of the spring blossoms at Linping Park & it was lovely 🌹🌷🌸✨ The park has a nursery as you walk up with different variety of flowers, each colourful & gorgeous.
It’s the perfect spring picture spot 📸 I’d highly recommend arriving very early. This part of the park is where most people flock for pictures 🙈 It’s extremely packed there on the weekends especially in the afternoon 🫣 Go very early and you won’t have to despair for a picture spot 😉

How to go ➡️ The park is between Qiushan Avenue 🚇 station & Heyu Road 🚇 station on Line 9. There are several entrances. I got in via the north entrance.

Wuzhen, the Night Queen of Zhejiang
Wuzhen is one of the six famous ancient water towns south of the Yangtze River. It’s within the triangle formed by three top tourist cities: Shanghai, Hangzhou, and Suzhou. It has charmingly restored architecture and canals. The charm and the elegance of this ancient water town is undeniable. It is more than 1000 years old town with rich history and architectural elegance. It is about an hour long drive from Suzhou, China. This place is vast and suggested plan would be two days of itinerary with one overnight. You can at least leave with some satisfactions. If you don't try the boat, well your visit here is meaning less. Entrance ticket is 150 rmb and boat ticket one way is 60 rmb per person. Yes, it is bit expensive though but for a AAAAA tourist place, this amount is worth spending.

Huzhou Sheraton is the best!
Located in China's "City of Silk" Sheraton Huzhou is located south of Lake Taihu in the northern part of Zhejiang Province. Dating back more than 2,300 years, Huzhou is also the birthplace of tea culture.
Huzhou is known for its numerous historical sites, many of which are still very well preserved. For a taste of adventure, visit Mogan Mountain, an area filled with wild bamboo, hundreds of springs and waterfalls, and some 200 villas representing various architectural styles from all over the world. Its built on the water with an amazing architectural design. #mytripvlog #zhejiang #huzhou
Camping and Hiking in 2 days⛰️🏞️🌄
Zhejiang is very famous for its outstanding Mountain View’s and bamboo forests.
Best part about trips there is it’s just 4-5 hours from center of Shanghai.
Why I always visit this area?
Pleasant weather and stunning mountain scenery.
In summer while most of cities in China like Shanghai are suffering from heat, Zhejiang area is still pleasant.
It’s one of the best places to visit not only in summer, but also spring and autumn.

1-Day Hanfei River Hiking
Cool autumn river hiking was organized by one of travel groups in Shanghai.
12 km of walking, discovering new villages, rocks, canyons and giant rocks. . Scenery is breathtaking.
It takes only 4 hours from Shanghai by bus to get there and enjoy nature.
Good reason to leave noisy Shanghai and spend all day close to mountains with nice people.
We were very lucky with weather that day: not cold, not hot. #weekendtrip #zhejiang #hiking #hikingtrails #hikingadventures
Enchanting West Lake in Hangzhou
Sightseeing around the West Lake of Hangzhou has been absolutely enchanting, even with the almost freezing temperature!
The North and East sides are more commercial, you can find several shops and restaurants... here you can look at the beautiful scenery while sipping your coffe ☕️
The West and South sides are more natural and quiet, recommend if you prefer to be surrounded by calm nature 🌿
Circumnavigating the entire lake in a day (walking and biking) was a lot of exercise...but I have been rewarded with some of the most beautiful sights of this province 😍
A truly beautiful day ❤️☀️🚣🏻

Rural Staycation in the Mountain ⛰️
This is the best staycation I had this year and can’t recommend it enough to anyone who wants to escape from the city for some time! Zhinan is located in the mountains of Lin’an county, part of Hangzhou city. I happened to go there for a weekend during fall and it was much better than what we expected with my friend. This village is so peaceful with epic views on the mountains and paddy fields. Most buildings are guest houses with restaurants whilst others are mostly shops selling local specialities. We stayed at a guesthouse for two nights. Everyone was so friendly there! Every corner was beautiful and the views are so soothing! In need of a dose of fresh air and nature, this is the place to go! 🌿🌳🍃👍🏼
Address ➡️ Zhinan, 指南村
How to go ➡️ My friend and I took a taxi from Lin’an Baolong shopping mall to the village. It took about an hour to reach.

Fall for Maple Trees on Gushan Road 🍁✨
Gushan Road is a picturesque road located in the West Lake scenic area. The road is lined with maple trees which attracts lots of tourists during fall in the city. Every corner looks stunning! It’s the perfect place for a walk and for snapping 📸 fall themed pictures! There are a few restaurants, kiosks selling souvenirs and a Costa coffee along the road. You can also go for a boat ride on the lake from there. When you reach the end of the road to Bai Causeway, you’ll spot Baochu Pagoda on the hill surrounded with fall foliage.
Address ➡️ Gushan Road, 孤山路

Epic Paddy Field Views in Fall 🌾💛
The paddy fields in Zhinan village were defo the highlight of my fall this year. They’re located right at the entrance of the village surrounded by many viewpoints for tourists. You can walk through the fields and venture further at ease! The views were breathtaking and so worth it! I spent a weekend in the village and explored this part on a Saturday. It was crowded, but this place is so big that you can easily find spots without people to take pictures 📸💛
Address ➡️ Zhinan Village, 指南村

Coffee & Mountain View❓Hell Yes 🧡
On a fall weekend getaway in Zhinan, the one and only coffee shop of the village was so lovely 🍁 It’s at the very beginning of the village and is beautifully decorated with maple leaves in and out! The outdoor seats have a gorgeous view on the mountains ⛰️ It’s also a small business shop where you can buy tea, cute notebooks and a bunch of handmade products such as jewellery, Chinese fans, scarfs etc… Most of the souvenirs are Maple leaf themed with surprisingly, very affordable prices. I bought a handmade Chinese fan, a ring and a pair of earrings for 148¥.
There’s coffee and tea with prices ranging from 20 -38¥. I had the wind leaf latte while my friend had the americano in the morning and white tea in the afternoon. They were all good 😊 The shop owners were so friendly and welcoming 🧡 Highly recommended checking it out!

Nice Hotel Surrounded by Greenery, Shaoxing
I stayed at Mirror Lake Hotel during National week and had a lovely time there. I chose this hotel for its proximity to the Keyan Scenic Area which is literally behind, a 5-10 mins walk from to the entrance!
The hotel is surrounded by greenery and the atmosphere is quiet and peaceful! You can stroll around and find some benches and swings to chill! 🌿
My room was spacious and very clean! The bathroom surprisingly also had a bathtub 🛁 and free toiletries such as bath salts, shower gel, shampoo, toilet paper and amenities such as towels, hair dryer, magnifying mirror… When you check in, you’re given a mini pouch with toothpaste, toothbrush, cotton pads and buds and a comb.
The bed was soft and comfy! You’re also provided with water bottles, black tea, green tea, instant coffee & sugar. They also offer a plate fo fruits every day as well as a small bowl of soup every evening. The room is cleaned every day. There’s also a small balcony.
The breakfast buffet is a mix of mostly Chinese and
western options. I believe there’s so much variety for everyone. Breakfast was included in my booking and I’d recommend it as there aren’t many options around. KFC, Starbucks and a few Chinese restaurants are at the entrance of the scenic area, but that’s pretty much it.
There’s a guy who stands by the entrance of the hotel and is pretty much the only one who speaks English. He’s very helpful and will guide you all the way to your room 👍🏼 I was also offered a goodie bag upon checkout with some Shaoxing specialities 😊
I’ll defo recommend this hotel for a getaway in a quiet environment or if visiting the Keyan Scenic Area is your main priority. Otherwise, downtown Shaoxing is about 20-30 mins by taxi 🚕.
Address ➡️ Mirror Lake Hotel, 君澜.绍兴鉴湖大酒店
How to go ➡️ I was coming from Hangzhou so took Shaoxing metro line 1 connected to Hangzhou metro line 5. I got off at Mingzhu Square 🚇, 明珠广场 and took a taxi to the hotel for about 20 mins.

A Must Visit Gem in Shaoxing 🛶
I went to Shaoxing once on a day trip, but had no idea about this wonderful place until I stumbled on pictures of it! The Keyan Scenic Area is HUGE! It consists of three parts:
1️⃣ Tiangong Stone Buddha
2️⃣ Jianhu Scenic Area
3️⃣ Luzhen old town
I went there during National week and made sure to arrive as early as possible, up to booking a hotel nearby. I started with the Tiangong Budhha which is where most people flock! The Stone Buddha was very impressive 👌🏼 The atmosphere was so calm and peaceful 😌 until the crowd arrived an hour later. There’s also relics, colorful paintings depicting history and temples.
As you walk further, you’ll reach the Jian Lake Scenic area which was so picturesque with mountains and nature as backdrop! Wupeng boats native to Shaoxing on the lake were so charming! The entrance ticket includes 2 boat rides. The first will take you to a small island which felt rather plain. There was a restaurant, yellow wine sellers and a glass bridge which required an extra 20¥. I just walked to the exit where I caught the other boat taking tourists to Luxun’s old town.
Luxun’s old town was lovely! There were restaurants with local dishes, a small museum, live Chinese old songs, souvenir shops and Jiangnan Style water canals with cobblestone pathways! It was relaxing to wander around and get some snaps 📸
The entrance ticket is expensive, but worth it! It also includes the boat rides.
Entrance 🎫: 130¥
How to go ➡️Keyan Scenic Area, 柯岩风景区
I stayed at Mirror Lake hotel which is a 5 -10 min walk to the entrance. There’s a metro line connecting Shaoxing line 1 to Hangzhou line 5 which was a convenient option for me coming from Hangzhou. Taxi ride to the hotel/entrance is about 20 mins from Mingzhu Square 🚇 station, 明珠广场

ARTIFICIAL BEACH IN HANGZHOU?? AMAZING!!!
RAINBOW COLOR PICNIC AT THE BEACH!
one thing I love is that it’s so artificial and yet gorgeous. the waterfall, the boats, the price is so affordable, for so much fun. too bad I didn’t take more pictures, ( I better improve 🙈) you pay 38 yuan at the gate. and you can access anything you want to do besides the boat. the boats were 50 yuan which is affordable aswell. we decided to have a picnic at the beach just to make it more fun and creative, I would highly recommend this to anyone new to Hangzhou. there’s a deep gorge swing too that’s free, it has more mini swings too that can keep you busy, there’s water to swim in…. there are cooling waterfalls to see and relax on…. there are cute spots for pictures! like yoh, what else would anybody want??😅 but all in all, I had 100% fun. loved it, went there by didi, just type boashan scenic area on your didi app. thank me later 😚😚

Falling for Hangzhou
When the temperature starts cooling and the daylight begins to shorten, it’s the sign that fall is here. Being one of my favorite seasons for photography, it’s the time of the year where some leaves turn from their normal green to striking yellows, oranges and reds.
Where do I go to photograph fall vibes? Hangzhou! Being based in Shanghai, Hangzhou is only a quick one hour high speed train ride. Easy for a quick weekend getaway.
This spot here is on the western side of the famous Hangzhou West Lake. but this location is not as crowded as other parts of West Lake. Here, you can easily be with nature without going too far.
Being such great place to watch the sunrise or sunset, I try and make time to visit whenever I am in Hangzhou. especially during fall.

Local Delicacies & Canals in Shaoxing 🏮
Cangqiao Straight Street is a popular tourist attraction in downtown Shaoxing, Yuecheng district. Whilst the street is packed with shops, restaurants, handicrafts, coffee shops, Shaoxing yellow wine sellers, it’s also a good place to discover local snacks and how they’re made. Surprisingly, I found long queues of people eager to taste local delicacies at every corner despite of the rain that day.
I wandered in the alleys leading to the back of the street, where water canals with old Chinese architecture buildings and Wupeng boats 🛶 offer such a picturesque scenery. If you want a boat ride, there’s a wharf, a few meters from the main entrance on Guangming Road. Just walk along the canal on your left, you’ll spot it easily ✌🏼
Address ➡️ Cangqiao Straight Street, 仓桥直街
How to go ➡️ I took a taxi 🚕. The driver will most probably drop you at the main entrance or nearby. It’s a long pedestrian street so you can just walk at your ease.

Great Barista coffee in Shaoxing ☕
Corner Coffee is a little artsy coffee shop along Cangqiao Straight Street. There are a few seats inside and a bunch of clothes, shoes, bags and hats on sale. The barista is accommodating and speaks English. After walking in the rain for a long time, I badly wanted a hot cup of coffee and some rest in a quiet environment away from the crowds flocking the street. I ordered a vanilla latte with oat milk which was perfect 👍🏼 Freshly made & not too sweet😌 They have other choices: Coconut latte, Hazelnut latte and the typical coffee choices. Prices are very decent. Mine was 33¥ ( 28¥ for a vanilla latte + 5¥ for oat milk)
Address ➡️Corner Coffee, 犄角咖啡
Cangqiao Straight Street, 仓桥直街329号
How to go ➡️ It’s a pedestrian street, so if you’re taking a 🚕, it’ll probably drop you somewhere nearby.
