【Hangzhou In-depth Tour】Exploring Off-the-beaten-path Routes, Enjoying Tranquility and Scenery

🌿 Hangzhou, a city full of poetic charm, not only has the gentle beauty of West Lake but also many lesser-known and enchanting corners waiting to be discovered. My friends and I decided to delve deeper into Hangzhou, avoiding the crowds and seeking out those hidden spots known only to locals. 🌅 Day 1: Upon arriving in Hangzhou, we chose a quiet afternoon. After a delicious lunch, we headed to our accommodation to drop off our luggage and take a short rest. In the evening, we strolled through the small market near Hangzhou Xintiandi. It was less crowded and comfortable, with small stalls and open-air performances creating a unique atmosphere, allowing us to experience another side of Hangzhou. 🌸 Day 2: West Lake is the soul of Hangzhou, but we chose a less crowded route. Starting from Ding'an Road Metro Station, we took a ferry to Huagang Park to see the fish. The scenic views along the way were refreshing. Then, we walked to Prince Bay Park, where the irises were in full bloom, making us feel like we were in a painting. Finally, we sat down at a café near Santai Mountain Cloud House, enjoying a cup of aromatic coffee while admiring the sunset. 🏯 Day 3: With expectations of souvenirs, we went to Hefang Street. Although it was bustling with people, the boutique and creative shops were dazzling. We picked out some unique items here. Despite the lively snack street, we preferred to find those hidden culinary delights in the corners. 🌟 This trip to Hangzhou not only allowed us to avoid the crowds but also discover another side of the city. Whether it was the quiet small market, the less-traveled routes of West Lake, or the creative boutiques of Hefang Street, our journey was full of surprises and experiences.
