🏡Accommodation Suggestions:
▪️Around West Lake: There are accommodations available in all four directions—east, south, west, and north. Not only are the attractions dense, but transportation is also super convenient. However, rooms are tight during peak season, so booking early now is just right~
▪️Near Wulin Night Market: Nightlife is super rich, very convenient to stroll the night market and eat snacks at night. Princesses who love food and shopping must not miss it!
▪️Qiandao Lake Area: Suitable for princesses who specifically want to visit Qiandao Lake, but it’s a bit far from downtown Hangzhou, so it’s recommended to arrange a separate itinerary.
▪️Next to Xixi Wetland: There are many elegant guesthouses hidden here. Open the window and you can feel the tranquil beauty of Jiangnan, immersive experience of water town style, the atmosphere is perfect!
🍜Food Recommendations:
🎀Heyummy (Hangzhou’s first store): The warm lighting atmosphere inside is super cozy, perfect for gatherings with friends! As a popular spot in Hangzhou’s food scene, the signature American BBQ must be ordered, eating big bites is super satisfying, the meat is tender and doesn’t get stuck in your teeth; the pork neck meat covered in sauce is also amazing, every bite is full of flavor. Average cost 150 RMB per person, really great value!
🎀Shanchun Thai Noodles (Hefang Street store): A hidden gem noodle shop on Hangzhou’s Hefang Street, you must try the super popular salty cheese Thai milk tea with pearls. When you bite the pearls, they are filled with salty fragrant cheese, the taste is very unique and addictive! Although it’s a calorie bomb, you just can’t resist; I also love their signature Pad Kra Pao rice, authentic flavor and very appetizing~
