The scenic spot is not very big, but the scenery is beautiful. The old master who likes to row the awning boat is great 👍🏻! The awning boat is swaying in the super beautiful scenery, and the experience is great! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Very interesting itinerary, took a cruise, met the humorous boatman, explained and talked all the way, the knowledge point was full, and also climbed the mountains of East Lake. The scenery was very good and a very fulfilling day.
Shaoxing East Lake Scenic Area, although the scenic area is not big, but there are lakes, strange stones, and garden landscapes, you can take the Upon boat to visit the entire East Lake, to feel this beautiful Jiangnan water town scenery, do not have a charm.
East Lake is located about 6 kilometers east of Shaoxing Ancient City. The area is small, the landscape is not deep and heavy, and there is no vastness of water and sky. On the contrary, it gives people a small and aura feeling. Therefore, East Lake is compared to the "landscape" by people. In addition, it is also the location of the daughter country in the 82nd edition of "Journey to the West".
