    วัดดีมากค่ะ มีบันไดเลื่อนสำหรับคนที่ไม่อยากเดินขึ้นบันได้นะคะ รอบๆวัดก็น่าเดินเล่นมาก การไปนั่งเรือแนะนำให้ไปวันธรรมดาหรือไม่ชนวันหยุดของจีนนะคะ เพราะคิวเยอะ คนเยอะมากกก

    Great show, and it can be a wonderful day to spend with families. However, NPCs only appear at certain times, and we didn’t see any NPCs interacting with us to exchange the ancient money. It was too crowded with many group tours, which affected the overall visiting experience. Some people performed the 'Train to Busan' show while attempting to enter the theatre.

    It's a 10-minute boat ride from Wugongzhi Wharf to Putuoshan Island. The island is quite large, and a day is only enough time to visit a portion of the attractions. It's very crowded and has many incense burners, but the environment is beautiful. There are shuttle buses and cable cars available. However, it can be quite tiring after a day there.

    I went to Hangzhou in September. Since I was staying in the Lingyin Temple scenic area, we walked there the next day to check out the Buddhist supplies shop. It seems the entrance fee has been abolished now, but when we went, we still had to buy tickets. Looking forward to going again; free admission is so kind! Environment: Lush and green, very pleasing to the eye, and the air was very fresh. However, once inside the temple, it got a bit pungent, but that also shows how many tourists there are and how popular it is! Service: Free drinking water and incense were provided upon entering Lingyin Temple. Kudos to the management!

    The South Gate plank road was under repair, so we entered from the North Entrance of the scenic area and hiked up the steps, taking about three hours to reach the summit. On the mountain, we walked along the cliffside plank road to admire various scenic spots, including the South Heaven Peak, Guanyin Peak, Ruyi Bridge, Wolong Bridge, Yuanmeng Bridge, and Kaitianpidi (a popular tourist attraction), which also took about two to three hours. We enjoyed the scenery and rested. There were also KFC, Bawangchaji (a popular tea shop), and other beverage and snack shops on the mountain. Shenxianju (a scenic spot) is breathtaking and well worth a visit.

    Wuzhen's East Gate is indeed less commercialized and more authentic; seeing the old houses is quite interesting. West Gate is relatively more exciting, with more crowds, especially at night. The Grand Theatre is beautiful, and the water curtain performance at Lingshuiju is unique. I checked out various popular restaurants; thankfully it was the off-season, so the queues weren't too long, and I ate my way through the area until I was full. This is a place worth visiting to experience a typical Jiangnan water town.

    The scenery was okay, but not amazing. I specifically tried the organic fish head from Tianmu Lake, but to be honest, it wasn't as delicious as the fish head from Tianmu Lake itself. It's alright for a relaxing stroll and sightseeing.

    You absolutely must go from Fangdong to Lingyan. You can take a cable car up from Fangdong, and the mountain path isn't tiring. Lingyan, on the other hand, is entirely a staircase path; if you're not physically fit, it's best not to go from Lingyan. (There's no cable car at Lingyan.) The Cloud Time Cliff Cafe in Fangdong is very photogenic. It's a great place to rest, have coffee, and take pictures. The suspended iron suspension bridge is the only way to connect Fangdong and Lingyan scenic areas. I'm afraid of heights, but after crossing it, I didn't find it as scary as I imagined. It was manageable. Trying a little thrill can be a great experience.

    To be honest, I don't know much about it; I just looked around, took some pictures of the architecture, and had high expectations, so I guess I was a little disappointed? It's acceptable, after all, protecting ancient books requires some effort from us.
