Leifeng Pagoda Review

“The legendary pagoda of the White Snake Queen, the view of West Lake is very magnificent.” ⛩️🌅

Don't miss the highlight ⭐

The wood carving tells the story of the White Snake Queen 🐍
The large wood carving in the upper hall impressively conveys the forbidden love story of a young woman who is a snake and a young man. It is so detailed that you have to stand and watch for a long time.

360-degree viewing balcony around the pagoda 🌄
The top floor is open for walking around. The cool wind blows all the time. The view is beautiful. You can see the West Lake, the tall buildings of Hangzhou City, and the mountains behind. It is a really worthwhile viewpoint.

What is on each floor? 🏯

The bottom floor: Walk through the glass below to see the remains of the original pagoda base. It feels like you are in the Song Dynasty.

The second floor: This is a real exhibition area with nothing blocking it. You are closer to the old brick ruins. There is a corner to learn about history and a small souvenir shop.

The third and fourth floors: Exhibit ancient paintings and beautiful wood carvings. Those who love ancient Chinese art will especially enjoy it.

The fifth floor: The peak of the trip Take a walk on the balcony, take a deep breath, and enjoy the city view from a high angle. It's so chill.
