||. I've been in Hangzhou for so many years!
This is my first time taking Hangzhou's most beautiful water bus, line 7🚤
The scenery is really plentiful, with willow trees, small bridges, and clear waters, it's truly a real-life version of the Emerald City from the Wizard of Oz🍃
👇
Line 7 has two types of boats (you can choose between an 8-person or a 24-person boat), if you want to experience the feel of a West Lake boat tour, choose the 8-person one, but you might have to wait for over an hour!
🕐 Duration: About 40 minutes
🎟 Cost: 3r, just swipe your Hangzhou bus card/citizen card on your phone after boarding
👉Pier options: Plum Blossom Stele/ Dam Bridge
①Dam Bridge Pier location: No. 9639 Jianguo North Road, Gongshu District, Hangzhou (There are usually more people queuing here, typically 1-2 hours)
②Plum Blossom Stele Pier location: Wuliu Lane Historical District, Shangcheng District, Hangzhou (Relatively fewer people here!!)
📍For navigation, just set Dam Bridge or Plum Blossom Stele as your destination
🍃Round trip route:
Dam Bridge - Baoshan Bridge - Guang'an New Bridge - Chaoming Temple Alley - Vegetable Market Bridge - Kui Alley - Zhejiang Second Hospital - City War Train Station - Plum Blossom Stele
🕐 Timetable:
Upstream: Plum Blossom Stele Station - Dam Bridge Station: 08:40-17:00
Downstream: Dam Bridge Station - Plum Blossom Stele Station: 07:40-18:00!
A boat every forty minutes, it is said that the frequency will increase during holidays, for the specific boat schedule see picture 18

✓We waited for about 20 minutes to take the big boat, although the river water was a bit smelly, it didn't really affect the mood~ Next time I have the chance, I'll take the small boat!
