It's near Taiziwan Park. I recommend that everyone can follow this route: Yun Song Bookstore—Yu Hu Bay—Taiziwan Park. Take a leisurely stroll in the afternoon. There's a very long bridge that's quite scenic! Parking is relatively convenient; there are two or three parking lots nearby. Still, I suggest using eco-friendly transportation because parking fees are a bit expensive~ There are also quite a few tasty restaurants nearby! Highly recommended~

Who would believe this is Taiziwan Park in December

📍《Taiziwan Park》 The vibrant colors of early winter~ Romantic and warm-hearted~ In the beautiful city of Hangzhou, there is a place that intoxicates people, and it is Taiziwan Park. Located in the southwest corner of West Lake, this park is famous for its romantic feelings and brilliant flower scenes.

The most beautiful seasons in Taiziwan are undoubtedly spring and autumn. There are blooming cherry blossoms and tulips in spring, colorful forests and red leaves in autumn, and the winter in Taiziwan is also unique. From the color change of the plane trees, to the yellow ginkgo, from the red maple all over the sky, to the golden Taxodium. The fir leaves at the entrance of the park gradually fall under the breeze, and the water surface is covered with a layer of golden pine leaves, which is as beautiful as a fairy tale world. There is a combination of evergreen trees and dead trees in the park, and the color is particularly layered. Although it lacks the red and green interlacing, it is even more stunning. There is also a mountain spring from Yuhuang Mountain. The stream in winter is particularly clear, a golden reflection, just like a flowing picture scroll, vividly showing the beauty and tranquility of nature. A gust of wind blows, and the leaves dance, like a free-falling elf, enjoying the pleasure of freedom in the air. The trouble-free tree, also known as the golden tree, is not in vain.

Where is the next destination? Then take your lover and set off first, come on! Feel the romance of Taiziwan Park in early winter!

The Prince Bay in West Lake during autumn, how can it be ten times more beautiful than spring?

Have you been enchanted by the maple leaves here in Prince Bay in autumn? I just came back from there, and I was really shocked by the beautiful scenery! About the maple leaf season, the time when the maple leaves are red to the extreme has not yet arrived, only a very few trees on the shady side are completely red. But there is no light under the tree, the color tone is too dark. I personally prefer the current maple leaves of green, yellow and orange, which are colorful under the sun. Plus, the water quality in Prince Bay is very good, it is blue-green, and there is a cool color in the warm color of the maple leaves, which is too great. Maple leaf viewing date prediction: In the recent week, the green is gradually less, and most of the maple leaves turn from yellow to orange. In the next week, the maple leaves are almost yellow, and the orange tone is enhanced. In mid-December, the maple leaves enter the orange-red stage, and they are about to be completely red. Maple leaf viewing time: 7-9 am, there will be morning mist in Prince Bay. 14-16 in the afternoon, the afternoon sun is very gentle. My pictures were taken around 3 pm. It's best to come on non-weekends. My highly recommended West Lake maple leaf viewing route: Quyuan Fenghe-Sudi (there is a colorful maple tree) or Guozhuang (park card is free)-Huagang Guanyu-Prince Bay-Hupao Park. In addition, there are Jiuxi and Meiling South Road, which are a bit far apart and not very convenient. You can go there when you have time.

The stunning autumn scenery of West Lake is in Taiziwan

🍁 The first wave of maple leaves in Hangzhou has quietly turned red in Taiziwan Park. Don't miss this beautiful park when you come to West Lake to enjoy the autumn. 📍Location: West Lake Taiziwan Park, Hangzhou 🚶🏻Route: West Gate ➡️ Small Church ➡️ Fanghuai Pavilion ➡️ Youran Pavilion ➡️ Big Windmill ➡️ North Gate ⚠️Small tips: It takes about 1-1.5 hours to stroll and take photos. It's best to go in the morning when there are fewer tourists and the light is softer. The most beautiful tree is just a few dozen meters from the west gate, and then near the Fanghuai Pavilion, where you can also take some backlit shots of the red maples. The metasequoia near the big windmill has also turned golden.

To avoid crowds of people getting into your photo, crouch down and aim the lens up to the sky or down to the flowers, increase the foreground to cover up tourists in the background, and use a large aperture (like on a mobile phone lens) to blur peripheral objects and focus on the center. While the park is free to enter, it's advised that you book online to avoid waiting.

Hangzhou Prince Bay Park | A natural healing place to purify the soul.

Prince Bay Park is located in Xihu District, Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China, adjacent to the famous West Lake Scenic Area. It is located in the Nanshan Road area, close to Jiuyao Mountain in the south, Jingci Temple in the east, Nan Gaofeng in the west, and Xiaonan Lake in the north. The park covers an area of about 120,000 square meters and is a beautiful place that combines pastoral scenery and mountain forest wilderness, emphasizing the design concept of "returning to nature and simplicity." 🍂Attraction Overview 1️⃣There are two outstanding stores by the west gate: Hubinju and Lanying. Lanying is more suitable as a tea restaurant, while Hubinju is recommended for a full meal. 2️⃣The lawn in front of the small church is a picnic paradise. Lying on the soft grass and basking in the sun is super comfortable. The lawn is surrounded by soapberry trees, and friends who have been picking autumn fruits here have had a good harvest. When you meet children blowing bubbles 🫧, you feel warm. 3️⃣On the way from Jiuyao Feiying to Fanghuai Pavilion, you will pass many beautiful small bridges. The water plants under the bridges are super clear, and there are small fish swimming. Walking along the water, you will see a relatively turbulent stream, where the famous Prince Bay Satin Green Water was filmed. 4️⃣The bench opposite Fanghuai Pavilion is a classic spot. According to experience, white dresses are the most photogenic. The nearby boardwalk is also very popular, but this spot is more suitable for portraits. Recently, there have been many red-clawed crabs at Fanghuai Pavilion, but I was unlucky and didn't see any. 5️⃣The windmill space is a small shop + fast food restaurant + coffee window, next to a large lawn, giving the illusion of being in a Dutch windmill. I saw several couples taking wedding photos here. 6️⃣After exiting the north/northeast gate, it is a few minutes' walk to Su Causeway, next to Huagang Fish Viewing, which can be combined with a visit to West Lake. 🚗Transportation: ⛵️Water Bus: You can take the water bus line from "Qianwang Temple Wharf" or "Hangzhou Hotel Wharf" to "Huagang Wharf", and then 🚶5 minutes to Prince Bay Park.

Hangzhou residents can enjoy a discounted price of CNY 5/person with their ID card. 🚗Self-driving: You can navigate to Prince Bay Park by yourself. There are several parking lots nearby, including Hupao Road Chishanbu Parking Lot, Nanshan Road Su Causeway Parking Lot, Prince Bay West Gate Parking Lot, and Santai Mountain Parking Lot. The parking fee is CNY 20/hour on weekends and holidays, and CNY 10/hour on weekdays. Due to the tight parking spaces in the scenic area, it is recommended that you do not drive to avoid missing the entrance time due to the inability to park.

The Prince Bay Park in autumn is just too beautiful! All photos were taken with a mobile phone, and it's very easy to get good shots. I can stroll around this beautiful park all day.

🌿 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. If you also want a different Hangzhou trip, follow our footsteps and explore the lesser-known beauty of this city.🍃🌄🎨

When traveling to Hangzhou, be sure to set aside half a day for Prince Bay Park

This time, I came to Hangzhou alone for 2 days and specifically visited Prince Bay Park. Prince Bay Park is not large, but it excels in its unique scenery. There are small bridges, flowing water, and green trees. If you encounter a sunny day, it is absolutely beautiful. . 【Location】: Prince Bay Park, Hangzhou 【Transportation】: Take bus 1314 to 'Sudi Bus Stop', then walk for 3 minutes . 【Sharing my photo spots】 ❶ After getting off the bus and crossing the road, follow the wooden walkway to reach Prince Bay Park.

Sit on the bridge and take photos from the opposite side. Prince Bay Park

Life advice, go to Prince Bay Park on a rainy day

The park's energy atmosphere is more intense, fewer people and quieter Only the sound of rain and the wind that comes from afar And the intermittent rain adds a mist over the lake It feels a bit like a fairyland, such a healing atmosphere Shooting location: Prince Bay Park Actual shooting date: June 26, 2024 Nothing beats seeing it with your own eyes Rainy Day at Prince Bay

I've had an epiphany! Hangzhou is like a massive Monet's garden

📍In the afternoon at Prince Bay Park, with the small river flowing, the Lycoris radiata blooming, the saturated colors of early summer make one feel as if they've wandered into a section of Monet's garden. The joyful frolicking of dogs under the sun, wild ducks in the pond stirring the water with their red feet, the sun dancing with the green leaves, the creek shimmering, even strands of hair can sparkle with radiant happiness.

Taiziwan Park, a secret paradise you won't want to leave once you arrive!

Taiziwan Park, a treasure spot that is free to enter and open all day, is recommended for a sunny day visit of about 3 hours. 📍Location: No. 5-1 Nanshan Road, Xihu District, Hangzhou City, with convenient transportation and direct access by multiple bus routes. Every step offers a view, and every spot is a great place for photography. The Fanghuai Pavilion, wooden walkway, stone arch bridge, large windmill, and big lawn, each corner has its unique beauty. The Fanghuai Pavilion is an excellent spot for photography, full of atmosphere and cinematic feel. It is recommended to bring a telephoto lens to capture those beautiful moments. The wooden walkway is close to the roadside by the lake. After taking photos at the Fanghuai Pavilion, you can come here, where every angle offers a different view. Next to the stone arch bridge, there is also a small waterfall. Taking photos from under the bridge offers a unique flavor. The large windmill and big lawn are great spots for photos. You can take pictures with the windmill or enjoy the sunshine on the lawn. ⚠Tips: The mosquitoes in Hangzhou are very enthusiastic, remember to bring mosquito repellent to prevent them from spoiling your good mood.

No one has captured this year's secret realm of Taiziwan yet

The photo was taken on the morning of Sunday, March 24, 2024. I set off early, waking up at five to head over from Yuhang. The weather was great in the morning, the sun came out, and the sunlight sprinkled on the tulips was truly beautiful. (The location of the small hill is by entering from the west gate, just go straight along the path and you'll see it after a short walk.)

Hangzhou's Hidden Gem - Taiziwan Park

During the May Day period, Taiziwan Park is devoid of the hustle and bustle of the flower exhibition period, as well as the colorful array of spring flowers. However, the beauty of the park remains intact with its small bridges, flowing streams, pavilions, lawns, maple trees, jade cicada flowers, and the large windmill, as well as the beaded curtain wall waterfall. With frequent rains in Hangzhou during this time, the clarity of the streams remains unchanged. Walking in the park, especially on rainy days, the refreshing pleasure is still omnipresent. Additionally, the park also features the seasonal roses, albeit in limited quantity, mainly located in the creative market area of the flower exhibition, which is the fine tulip planting area. These are tall rose bushes with few flowers, predominantly red in color. If you wish to see more roses, I personally recommend visiting Guozhuang and Hangzhou Nursery, which are about a 15-minute bike ride from Taiziwan, approximately 2.6 kilometers away. The second Hangzhou Rose Exhibition of 2024 is currently being held there. A friendly reminder: during holidays and weekends, the bus stop at the entrance of Taiziwan does not serve passengers. To reach the park by bus, you can alight at 'Chishanbu', 'Yuhuwan', or 'Jingcisi' and walk a short distance. The park is not very large, and it takes about 1 hour to stroll around. The most scenic spots are Wangshanping to the east and Xiaoyaopo to the west. Additionally, the park does not require an entrance fee and is open all day.

Enjoy the beauty of spring at Taiziwan Park

Taiziwan Park's tulips are indeed a symbol of spring romance. Every spring, as all things come back to life, the tulips in Taiziwan bloom on schedule, turning the colorful sea of flowers into a popular destination for Beijing residents and tourists to enjoy the blossoms and the freshness of spring. There, the tulips come in a wide variety of types and colors, blooming high and low amidst the lush green grass and along winding paths, creating beautiful scenes like paintings. People stroll through the sea of tulip flowers, feeling the breath of spring and the vitality of life, or stop to take photos, trying to capture the beautiful moments of each flower. Taiziwan Park is not only a great place to appreciate natural beauty but also a venue for families and friends to spend quality time together. In this sea of flowers, many couples also hold romantic marriage proposals or wedding photography, letting the tulips of Taiziwan witness their love. The Taiziwan in spring is indeed a unique romantic landscape in Beijing, attracting tens of thousands of tourists every year to enjoy the beauty of spring.
