In the hot summer, Hangzhou is so hot that people dare not go out, but the West Lake is so beautiful that it would be a pity not to visit it! Today I will share a route to the West Lake that avoids crowds and the heat. Most of the route is covered by trees, so you don’t have to worry about the hot summer!

West Lake is very large and the transportation is very convenient. There are buses, cruise ships, and shared bicycles. If you feel tired on the way, you can stop and rest at any time. Although there are plenty of shade trees along the way, it is still recommended to prepare sun protection clothing + ice sleeves + small fans, and mosquito repellent stickers are also needed, as there are really a lot of mosquitoes near the water!
