Quyuan Fenghe

曲院风荷

One of the ten scenic spots of West Lake, Fenghe Park where it is located cultivates hundreds of varieties of lotus, which is particularly charming in summer.
During the Southern Song Dynasty, there was a wine-making workshop here, which used stream water to make Qu wine. Whenever the summer wind blew, the aroma of wine and lotus was refreshing, so it was called "Quyuan Fenghe".
There are fields of lotus leaves and enchanting lotus flowers. Small bridges of various shapes are built on the water. People walking on the bridges feel like walking among the lotus flowers.

By Wangzai is so cute |

Method 1: Take photos of iconic buildings. If you come to Quyuan Fenghe Scenic Area and don’t take a photo next to the domineering iconic stone tablet, isn’t it a bit of a pity?

Shooting method 2: Use the framing technique to make the picture more artistic. In Quyuan Fenghe, the courtyard corridors and door and window frames of various shapes can all be used as shooting elements.

What is the most abundant thing in Quyuan Fenghe? Of course, lotus flowers. Take advantage of the good season and take beautiful framed photos with beautiful lotus flowers as the background.

After taking pictures of the doorway, don’t forget to make use of these rectangular windows. The pictures taken will be both beautiful and artistic, and the characters will seem to be embedded in the painting.

Shooting method three: Take photos of beautiful lotus flowers. The most wonderful part of Quyuan is the Fenghe Scenic Area. On the tranquil lake, there are red lotus, white lotus, double lotus and other famous lotus flowers. The lotus leaves are in full bloom, and the little red flowers among the rippling water are very beautiful. Walk and watch from the small bridges with different shapes on the water surface. People, flowers, water, sky, bridges and boats blend together and complement each other, which is pleasing to the eye.

When taking photos of beautiful lotuses, don't forget to incorporate the small bridge, the lake, and the blue sky. People walking on the bridge, the flowers reflecting people, people reflecting flowers, ancient and quaint. Take a single photo of the scenery, the picture changes, and there is a different artistic conception and beauty. Note that the black boat also matches the clear water and lotus.

Shooting method 4: Pay attention to the echo of buildings and green plants. The green old trees in Quyuan are growing very well, echoing with the pavilions and buildings. When shooting buildings, we must not miss the opportunity to use trees as embellishments. Every shot will become a scene.

Shooting method 5: clever use of mirror effect. Symmetrical mirror shooting is a popular shooting method this year. An interesting pose can add interest to your creative photos. You can shoot a clean window in a scenic area when the sun is shining.

The scenery of Quyuan Fenghe is very beautiful, especially in the summer when viewing the lotus in West Lake is a must, to truly appreciate the reality of the poem "the lotus leaves are endless and green, and the lotus flowers are exceptionally red in the sun."

By Smooth sailing |

Quyuan Fenghe is said to be the best place to view cherry blossoms in Hangzhou, and it is indeed great. But don't overlook the weeping crabapple and February orchid there, which are both very beautiful and easy to photograph.

By Metasequoia |

As soon as I entered Quyuan Fenghe, I couldn't help but recite Yang Wanli's "Seeing Lin Zifang off at Dawn from Jingci Temple": The lotus leaves are endless and green, and the lotus flowers are red in the sun. The lotus pod wanted to show off its proud figure and stood straight, but suddenly realized that it was naked and lowered its head shyly. The lotus leaves are half green and half yellow. The green ones are struggling to decorate the center of the lake, while the yellow ones have shrunk into a ball. How can the dilapidated scene in the pond be connected to the beautiful scene in the poem? The maple leaves on the lakeside are red, and they cast a different red color under the sunlight; the endless fragrant grass is still green, decorating the shore of West Lake with a green main color. Although the scenery is not as beautiful as that in June, it also has another kind of interest in the same way.

By Travel Expert |

The West Lake in Hangzhou is definitely a place you must visit when you visit Hangzhou. There are cruise ships wandering in the clear lake, girls folding oil-paper umbrellas, and the ancient style and beautiful scenery of the West Lake in Hangzhou.

By Snowball Dance |

Quyuan is the most beautiful place in Fenghe Scenic Area. On the tranquil lake, there are many famous lotus flowers, such as red lotus, white lotus, Zhongtai lotus, Sajin lotus and Bindihe lotus.

By A Tu |

Quyuan Fenghe. Located 22 meters west of the northern end of Su Causeway on the north bank of West Lake, covering an area of ​​about 0.06 hectares, it is themed on summer lotus viewing and visually presents the characteristics of "the endless green lotus leaves connecting the sky and the red lotus flowers reflecting the sun".

By Huang Daxia |

Under the Leifeng Pagoda in March, the West Lake with flowers in full bloom is a place I yearn for very much... In order to swipe my credit card to Hangzhou West Lake this spring, I have done a lot of preparations, including booking hotels and air tickets before the New Year... I learned that there are only four hotels with lakeshores in the entire West Lake, West Lake State Guesthouse, Xizi Hotel, Liuyingli Hotel, and Dahua Hotel. They belong to the same state-owned enterprise group. These four are truly five-star hotels that are completely facing the lake without any visual obstructions. They have an extraordinary experience of facing the lake, viewing the lake, and appreciating the lake with a super good view! So I booked Liuyingli Hotel for three nights and West Lake State Guesthouse for four nights early, and enjoyed the beautiful spring time in the season when willow leaves are just beginning to grow and peach blossoms are in full bloom by the West Lake!

2020.10.7 Visited Su Causeway and passed Quyuan Fenghe, a relatively independent attraction, which felt good;

By xi-xi |

Quyuan Fenghe is probably the most suitable scenic spot in summer, with a pond full of lotus flowers.

By Mr. Zhao from Liangzhong |

The first stop at West Lake, the overall feeling is OK, the scenery is good, and the cultural landscape is rich

By Luanqi didn't run around |

One of the ten scenic spots of West Lake. It is very hot. It seems that the performance of Impression of West Lake is also here in the evening.

By HIPPO sees the world |

Walking from Beishan Street to Quyuan Fenghe, there are still many tourists along the way, but the number decreases significantly after passing Quyuan Fenghe. Although there are no lotus flowers to see in spring, the newly sprouted Metasequoia forest is also a great scenery.

By Mr. Qin |

This must be the most beautiful scenic spot in West Lake in my eyes.

By bopai |

I went there during the Spring Festival, maybe it was not the right season, the scenery was average

By Austin |

Due to the season, there are no beautiful lotus flowers in the lake. It seems that the weather has also dyed the scenery a bit dark.



If you come here in other seasons, it will definitely have a different unique charm. At this moment, I can't help but imagine the setting of the movie "Green Snake".

By SYR |

The flowers are in full bloom. I wanted to see the lotus in Daming Lake, Jinan, but there were only a few in bloom. When I arrived in Hangzhou, the lotus flowers were already in full bloom, and I was happy.

By Whale Fall |

Whether it is rainy or sunny, the scenery is beautiful

Take photos or enjoy it with your family👌

By Andy.Bohu.Tang |

Quyuan Fenghe is a good place to visit in summer

The lotus flowers and leaves are swaying in the breeze, a beautiful picture

By Stefanie |

Although there were no mandarin ducks, the pairs of ducks looked very happy. The breeze blew over the water and the fragrance of the lotus leaves reminded me of the Dendrobium and duck soup I made two days ago. The rouge in the poem "If I want to compare the West Lake to Xi Shi, she is always suitable with light makeup" is probably the lotus. Yesterday's rain remained on the lotus leaves, and I saw large and small pearls falling on the jade plate. Compared with the lotus that shows its beauty brightly, the lotus pod as a fruit has a kind of implicit cuteness.

By Short oil |

Quyuan Fenghe is free! There is also a Friendship Park inside! The lotus flowers in August have all faded, but they are still very beautiful. After a round of Quyuan Fenghe, my legs were really broken, so I chose to take a boat without hesitation.

Here I would like to say that I took a sightseeing boat to Xiaoyingzhou Island, and I passed by the Lake Center Pavilion, but the Lake Center Pavilion is not open to the public. My purpose was very clear, to see the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon. But I don't recommend taking this boat. I recommend you take a hand-cranked boat. It is a bit more expensive, but it doesn't matter whether you go to the island or not.

By Simple little beauty |

I don't know where the authentic Quyuan Fenghe scenic spot is, but I saw lotus flowers blooming in West Lake, which are very beautiful, so I took it as Quyuan Fenghe~

By yukidoctor |

It may be the end of summer, there are only endless green lotus leaves, and the lotus flowers are sparse, and the red lotus flowers against the sun are not seen. It is said that the West Lake is not as good as rainy days when it is sunny, and not as good as snowy days when it is rainy. I didn't catch the snow, but it was too inconvenient on rainy days. It would be OK if there were few people, and I could feel the misty rain in Jiangnan. With so many people, it is more convenient on sunny days.

By July 🎸 |

It is said that Quyuan was originally a wine-making workshop opened by the Southern Song Dynasty court. Lotuses were planted in the garden, so it was called "Quyuan Fenghe". Later, Emperor Kangxi came to write an inscription, but he made a typo. As an old man is an old man, no one dared to say anything when he made a typo. The locals had no choice but to change the name to "Quyuan Fenghe", which is quite funny.

By _Manny |

The best place to enjoy the lotus in West Lake. There are hundreds of varieties of lotus planted in the Lotus Garden. The performance venue of Impression of West Lake is here. There is a huge stage in the water.

By Xu Xiang's perspective |

You must go when the lotus flowers are in full bloom, it is very beautiful. It's just a pity that it is too hot.

By Curious Cat Zhao Zhao |

I have always wanted to see the endless green lotus leaves in the midsummer, but the scorching heat every year really makes people discouraged. However, the four seasons in Jiangnan actually have their own style and are worth visiting again and again. For example, Quyuan Fengheli, Japan's late cherry blossoms, pink and rose-red, are the scenery that cannot be missed in this season. There are really not many people, and it is quite smooth to enter and exit the scenic area. This season, with the magic wand of the spring girl, watching the green slowly climb up the treetops, I feel happy. The spring breeze is heavy, the city is full of smoke and willows, flying catkins and flowers, and the dense silk is shaking.

By Lize |

When the lotus flowers were in full bloom, I stopped by Hangzhou and went to Quyuan Fenghe. There were a lot of people there. The weather was hot, but there were still a few couples taking wedding photos and many photography enthusiasts. I can't take such good photos, but I feel that a large area of ​​lotus flowers is really poetic and picturesque.

By Groundhog |

The lotus leaf skirt is cut in the same color, and the lotus blossoms on both sides of the face. I can't see her rushing into the pond, and I only realize someone is coming when I hear her singing. ——"Lotus Picking Song" by Wang Changling

By Sika |

It is actually a park in the West Lake Scenic Area. Its characteristic is that there are lotus ponds everywhere, and the lotus flowers in the lotus ponds are so dense that you can't see the water in the lotus ponds.

By Qiao Lihua |

I have been to Hangzhou many times, but I still cannot forget this city. In all four seasons, spring, summer, autumn and winter, Hangzhou is different, and West Lake is different. . . . .

By Sun Tree |

Quyuan Fenghe is not difficult to find. It is just to the west of the West Lake. Follow the Beishan Road of the West Lake and arrive at Yuewang Temple. It is on the south side of Beishan Road.

The gate of Quyuan Fenghe is open and can be entered from three directions: east, west and north. In addition to Beishan Road, people can enter from Su Causeway in the east or Yanggong Causeway in the west.

Quyuan Fenghe, the name of the place brings to mind endless imagination.

In midsummer, Quyuan Fenghe by the West Lake is the busiest, with tourists coming in droves. Here people can enjoy the flowers from a distance or up close.

In my eyes, Quyuan Fenghe is heaven, the pure land of bliss.

In this blooming season, people linger here to enjoy the flowers, watch the lotus, take photos, sketch, play cards, play the harmonica, look at their phones, or just daydream.

By Yellow |

Quyuan Fenghe is like a park. When we went there, there were not many people, it was very quiet, we could hear birds singing, squirrels, lotus flowers, hydrangeas, big trees, and paths, it felt very comfortable. We also met a few beautiful girls wearing Hanfu here, which was pleasing to the eyes. I found that there are many people wearing Hanfu here, I think Hanfu is very beautiful, and we should encourage more people to wear it.

By Walter Jin |

To put it bluntly, the Ten Scenic Spots of Hangzhou are places where you can take your friends to visit.

By Leaf mushroom |

After a while, more and more people started to come to Quyuan Fenghe, which was really annoying.

By Tokugawa Father |

The reason why it is called Quyuan Fenghe is because there are really a lot of lotus flowers in front of you. At that time of the season, the lotus flowers have already shown their pointed corners, and dragonflies have already landed on them. Under the lake, there are many small fish that can't grow up swimming in groups.

By . |

In early June, I didn't have the chance to appreciate the magnificent scenery of "the endless green lotus leaves connecting the sky and the red lotus flowers reflecting the sun". I only saw "the little lotus leaves just showing their pointed tips" and a few lotus buds shyly poking their heads out among the green leaves in the pond, like a girl who couldn't contain her excitement when she saw her lover for the first time.

By Ah Han Sauce |

The large lotus leaves swaying in the water are really beautiful. It is said that if you come here in other seasons, you can give up this activity, because what’s the point of visiting Quyuan Fenghe if you can’t see the lotus flowers?

By T_d! |

Quyuan Fenghe is at the north entrance of Su Causeway. It is a large lotus garden. After visiting it, you can go directly to the Broken Bridge of Bai Causeway, or you can go back to the entrance and walk south along Su Causeway to Leifeng Pagoda.

By Lonely Traveler |

There are hundreds of kinds of lotus planted in the park, as well as various bridges and pavilions.

It's foggy today. It looks like a landscape painting from a distance.

By The Scavengers of the Sauce and Vinegar Years |

Are you here too early? The lotus flowers haven't bloomed yet. I'm confused about this attraction. I think I just passed by.

By Golden |

I walked to the Su Causeway and took the last moment to look at the man-made Quyuan Fenghe. It is impossible to have such green lotus leaves in winter. This is also the place where the Impression of West Lake is performed in summer.

See the travel notes "Remembering Hangzhou - Beauty in the South of the Yangtze River" http://www.mafengwo.cn/i/6744236.html

By Yi Lai |

It was originally a palace wine shop, with lotuses planted in front of it. I recall the days when the aroma of wine and lotus filled the lake, and people were intoxicated even without the wine.



In late winter, it is impossible for lotus to bloom, but there is another charm. Just looking at the withered lotus has a melancholy beauty~



The sky is gloomy and getting colder. The winter cold is bone-chilling. When the sun sets, it gets even colder from the inside out. Looking around, there are few tourists, swaying tree shadows, lonely crows and old vines, withered lotus leaves in the winding courtyard, the sky and the earth are empty, the universe is quiet, and I am the only one in the universe, but I don’t know where I am...

By Ody |

When we got to the parking lot, the manager handed us a card and asked for 20 yuan an hour. Is this... robbery? The sign next to it said 10 yuan on weekdays and 20 yuan on weekends. I couldn't afford to park, so I left. I parked at the Four Seasons Hotel in shame. As one of the ten scenic spots of West Lake, this should be a place to come in summer, but the lotus pond is only left with bare poles...

By -Aspartame- |

[Quyuan Fenghe] is located on the west side of West Lake, in front of Yue Fei Temple. Quyuan Fenghe is generally recommended. You must go there during the lotus blooming season in Hangzhou. During the Spring Festival, it cannot show its most beautiful side to tourists.

By Hayley |

In front of Qixia Mountain is Quyuan Fenghe, a park along the shore of West Lake. It is connected with the surrounding Yuewang Temple, Guozhuang, Hangzhou Botanical Garden and other scenic spots, forming the most important tourist area on the north line of West Lake. Under the rising sun, the West Lake is quiet and there is no ripple. At this time, even the hint of time does not exist.

In early winter, the fragrant lotus flowers are gone, but replaced by eye-catching red leaves, making the forest look like a fairyland.

By Zhao Haowan |

I highly recommend it because of Director Zhang's impression of West Lake or the most memorable place in Hangzhou.

By The colonel |

Not far from Yue Temple is Quyuan Fenghe, a place where you can just walk in the shade of trees, which is a great feeling.

By Wood source |

The garden is not big, the environment is elegant, it is laid out along the lake line, it is naturally clean and the transportation is very convenient.

By Bai Xubo |

One of the ten old scenic spots of West Lake, it is of course a good place to see lotus flowers in summer. It also includes small attractions such as Jade Belt Clear Rainbow and Imperial Wine Shop.

By Yuanyuan and Xiaoyang both like handsome men |

The lotus leaves are endless and green, and the lotus flowers are red in the sun

By Donness |

Went there in early December. Nothing to see TT.

By Misty Ranger |

Quyuan Fenghe, as the name suggests, is mainly about lotus. I have forgotten how many summer evenings and nights I have met with a few friends on 88 (Zhejiang University Piaomiao Shuyunjian BBS) and slowly strolled to Quyuan Fenghe to enjoy the moon and lotus. At that time, Quyuan Fenghe still charged admission, but later many parks in Hangzhou waived admission. Another memory is that my class once had a barbecue at Quyuan Fenghe. After eating, we couldn't eat anymore and gave it to others after it was done. Outside Quyuan Fenghe is the newly opened Yanggong Dike. I didn't have time to visit it this time. It is a very relaxing place, mostly visited by locals. There is the former residence of Gai Jiaotian (a famous Peking opera artist) and the tomb of Yu Qian, as well as many flowers, plants and reed marshes. Su Causeway and Bai Causeway divide the West Lake into three parts. The part of the lake near Su Causeway to Quyuan Fenghe is called Yuehu Lake. Yuehu Lake is very quiet and there are few boats. The West Lake Impression created by Zhang Yimou was performed on this lake. It is said that the most expensive ticket costs more than 1,000 yuan. Last time I went there on a business trip, I turned down the tickets given by others to meet friends. It is said that the performance was very good. You can walk to Su Causeway from Quyuan Fenghe Bridge and Pavilion.

The blooming period is from June to August, and many flowers have withered by September.

By NN small steamed bun |

As a scenic spot of West Lake, it should not be given three stars, mainly for two reasons

1. There are too many people

2. The timing is wrong (don’t go to West Lake in October). There is not a single flower on the lotus leaves in the lake. It is just dark green and many lotus leaves are withered.

The final photo can only rely on filters

By ❤Queena_ |

The ten scenic spots of West Lake all have their own beauty. With blue sky and white clouds, and gentle breeze, strolling along the West Lake will make you feel relaxed and happy.

By Clouds are the hometown of rain |

Of the ten scenic spots of West Lake, seven are located next to the lake. Among them, the one I like to linger over the most is the Winding Courtyard Lotus. The lotus scenery here can be seen from April to October every year, from the time when the small lotus leaves just show their tips to the time when the withered lotus leaves are left to listen to the sound of rain. This is one reason. The scarcity of tourists is also an important reason.

By Edison, South |

Quyuan Fenghe is actually quite large. From Su Causeway, you can visit many scenic spots. Quyuan Fenghe is located on the west side of Su Causeway. Quyuan Fenghe is like a park. As the name suggests, the lake is covered with dense lotus flowers, which is very poetic.

By Sure enough, the tree |

Very beautiful, a large lotus pond, best to go when the lotus is in bloom

Welcome to my Hangzhou travel notes

By ____Escape |

The photo is not as beautiful as the real thing. Quyuan Fenghe has a very summery feel.

By A grain of rice |

I ran into "West Lake Uncle Fan" who has been a volunteer tour guide since his retirement (you can find him on Baidu). Uncle taught us that the "qu" in "Quyuan Fenghe" is actually the "qu" in "jiuqu". This is a scene that you can smell with your nose. I would like to share the location that Uncle recommended for taking photos with the stele. Whether it looks good or not is a matter of opinion:p Uncle said that only this stele is the original stele and not a rebuilt one.

By Fish swimming in spring water |

This spot can only be reached by boat, and is located in the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon Scenic Area. If you go there early in the morning or late in the evening, you can see the red lotus flowers reflected in the sun. It is also a great place to take photos.

By Yidan_K |

There is a garden in the garden called "Fukui Hangzhou-Friendship Park" in Quyuan Fengheli. The cherry blossoms are in full bloom during the Qingming Festival and are very beautiful. It is close to Su Causeway. When the Su Causeway is crowded with people, you can still take pictures of flowers blooming and the shimmering water here. It is also touching.

By Wayne |

Quyuan Fenghe is located at the northern end of Su Causeway. As the name suggests, it is a place to enjoy lotus flowers. In July, there are very few lotus flowers in the Fenghe Scenic Area. Instead, there are many lotus flowers on the lake north of Fukui Garden and next to the Jiuqu Bridge.

By Grand Debut |

I arrived in early June, and there were not many lotus flowers in bloom, but many lotus leaves had withered. Why? The ducklings swimming leisurely among the lotus leaves were a pleasant surprise, and strings of red eggs-like things were often seen on the lotus stems. I wonder if they were laid by frogs. This place was chosen very well.

The overall scenery of the courtyard is good. We ate at Zhanbilou. The staff strongly recommended the fast food at 20 yuan per person. Other tourists recommended noodles, but the staff said that the noodles were slow. Opposite the main window is Leifeng Pagoda.

By Carrot juice |

It happened to be the 15th day of the sixth lunar month. In order to see the famous "After all, the scenery of West Lake in June is different from that in other seasons, the lotus leaves connecting the sky are endless and green, and the lotus flowers reflecting the sun are exceptionally red", we rushed to Quyuan Fenghe at around five in the morning, and we were not disappointed!

By Ruci |

The lotuses in West Lake are not in full bloom yet. It would be beautiful in the summer, but it would be very hot then. There are a lot of people at the entrance, but there are fewer people as you go in, so it is suitable for a slow walk.

By Ding ah_ |

Many photography enthusiasts use their cameras to take pictures of the lotus flowers, which are really beautiful.

Remember to arrive before 9 o'clock, otherwise there will be too many people and the sun will burn you to death.

By Cathy |

How can lotus flowers bloom in June? Even though it is raining, the scenery is still beautiful.

By Strawberry Jam 2017 |

A lake of lotus leaves and lotus flowers, the setting sun and a heartbroken person far away.

By Uzimi |

Quyuan Fenghe is on the north side of Su Causeway, close to Beishan Street and Yue Temple. Therefore, many tourists start their tour of West Lake here. You must go to Quyuan Fenghe in summer because that is when the lotus flowers are in full bloom. At that time, Quyuan Fenghe is the most beautiful. It is not a lie that it ranks second among the ten scenic spots of West Lake. Photography enthusiasts are advised to bring a telephoto camera, which makes it easier to take pictures of flowers and take great photos. Another point is that there are many small paths in Quyuan Fenghe, so be careful not to get lost.

Lotus in the bamboo forest, one of the ten scenic spots of West Lake, should be very beautiful in late summer and early autumn.

By Kathy Lee |

The lotus pond moonlight season has passed by the National Day holiday. You can hike along the West Lake and see many lotus leaves.

By Clear Moon |

I went there during the Qingming Festival, when the lotus flowers were not yet in full bloom. The vegetation was lush, and all kinds of flowers were in full bloom, with a few cherry blossoms that were particularly eye-catching. The air was fresh, and it was suitable for a leisurely walk.

By Invincible Little White Rabbit |

It is a place I love so much. Spring, summer, autumn and winter each have their own charm. There are spruce trees in autumn, snow in winter and endless green lotus leaves in summer... In ancient times, this was a great place for winemaking. I always imagine the beauty of the blending of the aroma of wine and lotus. Maybe there should be a cool night when I should bring a few pots of wine to drink under the moonlight and enjoy the lotus fragrance and moonlight.
