A Hidden Gem by the West Lake – Guozhuang Garden, Hangzhou 🌿

If you’re visiting Hangzhou and want to escape the crowds while still soaking in the charm of West Lake, Guo’s Villa (郭庄) at Xiaoxihu (Little West Lake) is the perfect spot. 💚

Tucked away in a quiet corner near the West Lake, this classical Chinese garden is beautifully preserved and much less touristy compared to more famous spots like Leifeng Pagoda or Broken Bridge.

📍Getting there: It’s a short walk or bike ride from the main West Lake scenic area. Just search for “Guo’s Villa (郭庄)” on your map app.

🎫 Entry ticket: RMB 10

Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to slow down and appreciate the quieter, more refined side of Hangzhou. ✨ #chinatravel #hangzhou
