WANNA HAVE BREATHTAKING A TOP VIEW??

I mean, I might not have taken good shots! But this place is everything! Breathtaking! And any other word you want to use! You might wanna dress up because this place is so beautiful. Has so many beautiful spots to take your pictures from, if you have a wife or girlfriend. I’d recommend you take her lol.😅 there’s a section they play romantic calm songs that honestly speaking are only couple friendly, not family, not friends but couples. If you’re deep romantic like me, you might even want to dance some bow dance… or salsa with your woman or man.😂 and just have a beautiful moment. No food places inside or anything but the location is not far from malls or anything else so you don’t have have to worry. I will give this place a 10/10. For more information on how to go there and more, you can also check my previous posts. They are in the same area. #CampingGlamping #beachlife #foodie #MyTripVlog #urbanexplorer #awesomepic #cafe #passionpassport #CelebrateWithTrip #nationalpark #themepark #yearofrabbit #newyearadventure #tripblazers #beachlife #本地遊 #exploresgtogether #Art Gallery #gallery #museum #explorer #explore #china #hangzhou #chinatravel #chinatravel #chinalife #chinalife #historicculture

Hiking amongst the bamboo! 🌲🌿🏞️

If you're looking for a bit of adventure with a stunning view, then Yunqi Bamboo Trail is definitely for you!

A TOUCH OF PINK?

one of the best experiences ever. I saw this on pictures earlier and I really thought I was going to find something different, but believe me you, it is way better in person actually. very beautiful, and aesthetically pleasing. would highly recommend. in Hangzhou, binjiang district to be precise. I went there by didi, once you type SKYME, I’m sure it will appear. there’s a bar by the side that’s so chilled and you can order anything, snacks, cocktails, water, etc. in the range of 50-800yuan. . #beachlife #urbanexplorer #summervacation #themepark #awesomepic #staycation #foodie #cafe #nationalpark #wintergetaway

Pleasant stroll in the bamboo forest🎋

Nice place to have an enjoyable walk around greenery and bamboo. The bamboo trees are very tall covering the sky giving you the feeling that you are super tiny. Also, there is a temple on the top but when we were there it was under construction so unfortunately we couldn’t visit it. - Admission fee 8¥ . . . #triplocal #summervacation #naturalwonders #nationalpark #passionpassport

West Lake from a different angle

Everytime you mention going to Hangzhou, people talk about West Lake. I decided to go and visit a smaller area just beside West Lake where the Cherry Blossom was blooming. While still connected to West Lake’s main area, this part was calmer and quieter. It was also an easy to follow path to connect to the main West Lake viewpoints and access the small shops just beside the lake. Why should you visit West Lake? West Lake is an iconic part of East China, especially Zhejiang. It’s also located in the capital city of Zhejiang. Many people visit West Lake because it is beautiful and calming. Also the whole area is free to walk around or sit and chat at. You can’t visit Hangzhou without seeing West Lake. #urbanexplorer #hangzhou #hangzhoutravel #nationalpark #lakes

here’s the tea …🍵

Zhejiang province is one province filled with many secret gems and beautiful natural areas. Hangzhou was my first stop in this province and it certainly encapsulates a lot of natural beauty. I found longjing tea plantation after walking around the quiet, mountainous areas of Hangzhou . The area has a few tea plantations around it, and within those plantations you can find cute museums covering the history of the tea and the area. if you’re a tea lover, you can certainly purchase some tea after walking around and experiencing the lush greenery 🌿#tigeryear2022 #staycation #skiadventure #nationalpark #naturalwonders #tea #zhejiang #hangzhou #explore #lakes

Walk around the West Lake

The West Lake 西湖 is one of the most famous places in Hangzhou and definitely one of the beautiful and must-see sights. You can start from any entrance and walk around, passing through beautiful pagodas on the water, singing and dancing people, small gardens and even museums. There are also small and medium boats available to rent, plenty choices of cafés, shops and street food. The best time to go it’s during spring and autumn to enjoy the colors of the trees and the lotus flowers. #travelinspiration #unforgettableexperiences #nationalpark #lakes #urbanexplorer #naturalwonders

Lingyin Temple, Hangzhou

Lingyin Temple on a rainy day is a quiet and tranquil place, so many twists and turns, alleyways and staircases, all whilst looking absolutely stunning. My second visit to this beautiful temple was even more intriguing than the first, it's yellow painted buildings popping out from the gound in the mist. The flowers and trees in their autumn state are very unique. Even the quick drive through the West Lake scenic area was beautiful, trees dropping orange and yellow leaves onto the ground. Linying is famous for it's carved buddhas, but the buildings and the friendly staff really make this place a needed destination to visit. #travelinspiration#historicculture#culturalattractions#nationalpark

Lingyin Temple & Scenic Park Hangzhou

Lingyin Temple & Fei Lai Feng Scenic Park Hangzhou Next on the list is this scenic park - I say this because I saw everything in the park except the Lingyin Temple.. haha... But don't fret, there are two other temples and lots more to see... Getting There - This scenic spot is located at 1 Fayun Lane, Lingyin Road, Hangzhou.. can't be missed. I took a didi (as usual), but there is also a bus terminal out front (I think I spied a bus line Y2...) Attractions - This park has loads of things to see.. stone carvings of budha legends, stone caves (amazing way to cool off during the summer) with more statues connected to beautiful streams, all envelopes in an ancient forest with big trees.. the sight is quite delightful. Admission into the park cost 45rmb - take a passport or the picture of the information page with you. The Lingyin Temple is inside the park, so I don't think it's possible to go to the Temple without paying for the park - there could be a seperate admission cost for the Temple but sadly, didn't get the chance to find out.. we trail the park first and checkout the temple on the way out.. We walked along the streams and park, and other temples way ahead... nice hike until the drizzle started. I was prepared with my umbrella but the light drizzle turned into a frantic downpour.. my umbrella was no match for it.. the trail turned slopy with about 20 floors in stairs which did interesting things to the hamstrings. I was completely drenched at the peak .. but still proceeded back out and to the Lingyin temple. My travel code showed I was in Shanghai 2 weeks back and the guards kept enquiring in chinese, passport and visa details, filling forms - drenched me wasn't in the mood for this, so I left. Food & Restaurants - Small shops within the scenic park. large variety of restaurants are at the entrance, just before the ticketing office - so easy bite before or after the site. #hiking#scenicspotphotoguide#nationalpark

Six Harmonies Pagoda

Six Harmonies Pagoda has 13 stories, standing an impressive 60 meters (197 feet) tall, with beautiful paintings and patterns on the walls of each story. Standing beside Qiantang River, it was built to suppress the evil which was thought to cause the river’s tidal bore — the world’s largest tidal wave. #urbanexplorer #themeparks#nationalpark#lakes#beaches#infinitypool

explore Lingyin Temple

Lingyin Temple is a large temple in a forest, with a history of about 1,800 years. One of the largest and most famous Buddhist temples in China, Lingyin houses a large collection of Buddhist treasures and relics which were significant in the development of Buddhism in the region. #urbanexplorer #themeparks#nationalpark#lakes#beaches#infinitypool

Amazing lake

West Lake is Hangzhou’s most famous attraction. No matter whether the weather is cloudy, rainy, snowy, or sunny, no matter whether early in the morning or late at night, West Lake always puts on a show of beauty. Walk, bike, or boat around West Lake to relax in a massive showpiece demonstrating the style of China's classic gardens. The landscape of West Lake is so iconic thatit's printed on the one yuan note! #urbanexplorer #themeparks#nationalpark#lakes#beaches#infinitypool

Leifeng Tower - Hangzhou

Leifeng Tower in Hangzhou is very famous! It is also one of the must see places when you visit Hangzhou. I was surprised they have an escalator going up the pagoda! When you reach the top, you will see the amazing view of the West Lake and all of its surroundings! When you travel there during winter, just prepare yourself because its really very very cold when you are on top specially when the wind blows. #historicculture#culturalattractions#nationalpark

Xixi Wetlands, Hangzhou

After West Lake, Xixi Wetlands seems to be a close second on famous water related landmarks in Hangzhou. The beautiful area has so much to see and do, including wild life and beautiful hotels. The most striking is the beautiful artworks that are to be found there. Truly awe inspiring, and very varied in design and technique #historicculture#uniquelodging#travelinspiration#unforgettableexperiences#loveflowers#nationalpark#roadtrip#urbanexplorer

lovely hotel

Chin chin restaurant #2023TravelWish #urbanexplorer #awesomepic Getting There - used a didi. Just type the location on your search bar then you will be dropped Attractions - it’s an amazing restaurant but is surrounded by more beautiful restaurants incase you want to explore more Hotels - I did not navigate on hotels nearby because I mainly went there for a meal though the place in the main business central area so I would assume there are nearby hotels nearby food prices range from like 58 yuan and above. Food & Restaurants - so many many many bars and restaurants close by, you better catch this place up🤪🤪 Shopping - there are quite a number of shops near by and malls to shop from if you want to shop. It’s really an amazing place with beautiful places around.#wintergetaway #foodie #MyTripVlog #本地遊 #cafe #CelebrateWithTrip #nationalpark #CampingGlamping #tripblazers #passionpassport #exploresgtogether #restaurant

Cube Gallery, China

It is designed as a convivial place of interaction between the young families and seniors living in the surrounding residences. CLOU reacted to the high density of the site by fusing two familiar types of retail. The resulting arrangement is a composition of three storey individual cubes sitting on top of two levels of retail terraces with small community support shop units. . This hybrid of two retail types offers flexibility for an interesting mix of small and large tenants. The cubes accommodate dining, sports, entertainment and children’s education. . The cubes are connected by a second “ground floor” on level three which is directly linked to the main street corner plaza at ground level. By focusing the outdoor circulation on the lower three levels we enhanced the commercial viability of this challenging project whilst giving this city corner a distinctive character. #ancienttomb #university #lanternshow #themepark#zoo#nationalpark#lakes

Xianghu; where romance blossoms

Xianghu is the lesser known lake of Hangzhou, but to some may be even more beautiful because of it's serene silences, long quiet walks, wildlife and a getaway from the busy city centre. Truly a beautiful lake and surrounding area. #nationalpark#lakes
