The journey begins with a transfer to the West Lake Scenic Area (Note: Tour buses are not permitted to enter the scenic area. A shuttle bus transfer is required at a cost of CNY 5 per person per way (CNY 10 per person round trip), to be paid individually.This service is entirely optional.)
Upon entering the “paradise on earth” of West Lake, board a lake cruise to glide across the serene waters. Admire distant views of Su Causeway in Spring Dawn and the surrounding hills, and pass by the iconic Three Pools Mirroring the Moon—a poetic blend of water, hills, and sky.
After disembarking, take a leisurely stroll along Su Causeway. With its six graceful bridges and willow-lined paths, each step reveals the classic Jiangnan scenery described as “rippling water shimmering under sunny skies.”
Afterwards, we will proceed to Leifeng Pagoda. Standing by the shores of West Lake, the pagoda offers a panoramic view of the entire lake from its top, with sweeping vistas of the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon and Su Causeway in the distance—a breathtaking blend of shimmering waters and verdant hills.
Around 12:00, we will head to Meijiawu to enjoy a local Hangzhou-style lunch (simple set meal). Lunch is included for adult participants
