Leifeng Pagoda, following the footsteps of the White Snake Queen

Follow the legend of the White Snake Queen!!

According to the famous Chinese folktale, the Snake Queen was imprisoned in the Leifeng Pagoda. This is a must-check-in station when visiting Hangzhou.

First, you have to buy a ticket for 40 yuan. The elderly can go. There are escalators and elevators available. The first floor is a display of the remains of the real pagoda, only the base remains. The beautiful pagoda that we see is a new construction covering the original base. There are 5 floors and 8 sides. You can see a 360-degree view of Hangzhou. 🥰✨️

On the top, you can walk up the stairs to see the view of West Lake. Or if you can't walk up, you can go and queue up to take the elevator to the top floor. The view of the lake from the top floor is as beautiful as a painting. It feels relaxing and peaceful. It's true that Hangzhou is truly a paradise on earth. 🏔🏞 If you have some time left, stop by to read about its history and see the antiques around the pagoda. You'll gain a lot of knowledge.

How to get there - Take the high-speed rail to Hangzhou East Station and then take a taxi. ✨️

Opening hours: 08:00 - 20:00. It would be very romantic to watch the sunset. 💕
