รีวิวทะเลสาบซีหู หางโจว (西湖 / West Lake)

“A city lake as beautiful as a Chinese painting”

This time I had the opportunity to visit Hangzhou, and of course, the first place I pinned was “West Lake” or West Lake, which I have heard for a long time that it is very romantic.

The overall atmosphere is very good. It is shady, quiet, and there is a path along the lake. The cool breeze makes you feel relaxed, like you are really in an ancient Chinese movie scene.

💕What I like the most
View: Every angle is beautiful. It is really beautiful. The water is very clear. It is a pity that the pavilion by the lake is closed for renovation.
Activities: There are wooden boats to take you to see the view in the middle of the lake.
Leifeng Pagoda: Go up and see the view from a high angle. It is very beautiful. You can see the entire lake.

🚇How to get there
I stayed in the city and took the subway to Longxiangqiao Station and walked for about 10 minutes to the lake. It is convenient. Or you can call a taxi / Didi.

⏰️Opening and closing times
The lake is open all day. You can come in the morning, evening, or come for a walk in the evening. But if you want to go up Leifeng Pagoda or take a boat. It is recommended to come between 9:00 and 17:00.

🔖Cost
Free to enter the lake
Boat ride: about 50–100 yuan
Pagoda climb: about 45 yuan
