If you want to visit the city of Hangzhou, the most typical thing is to visit the West Lake to see the "Ten Scenes", which are:
Autumn moon on the flat lake, spring dawn on Su Di, broken bridge with remaining snow, and thunder peaks falling in the sun , Nanping Evening Bell, Quyuan Fenghe, watching fish in Huagang, hearing orioles in the willow waves, three pools reflecting the moon, and twin peaks in the clouds; viewing lotus flowers at Quyuan Fenghe is a major feature in June and July.
The ten scenic spots of the West Lake are basically all along the lake. They are open to the public and free of charge (except for the Pavilion in the Center of the Lake - Three Pools Reflecting the Moon, Nanping Evening Bell, and Shuangfeng Towering in the Clouds). Liulang Singying is connected to the Nanshan Road Bar Street, the most charming bar street in Hangzhou. In the evening, you can see the large-scale musical fountain on Hubin Road Pedestrian Street, Su Causeway, Bai Causeway and Yanggong Causeway by the lake. It is most pleasant to visit in the summer evening after the sun sets.
There are also ten new scenic spots in West Lake: Yunqi Bamboo Path, Manlong Osmanthus Rain, Tiger Running Dream Spring,
Longjing Tea Asking, Jiuxi Smoke Tree, Wushan Tianfeng, Ruan The piers and rings are green, the yellow dragon spits out emerald green, the jade emperor flies into the clouds, and the gems flow through the clouds. Most of them are a bit far away from the West Lake. The Baoshu Pagoda (part of the Baoshu Liuxia scenic spot) on Baoshu Mountain in the north of the lake has beautiful lights at night. In summer, you can go to climb the Huanglong Cave (a scenic spot: Huanglong Tucui). The scenery is good and very cool. After climbing over the mountain of Huanglong Cave, you can go to Baoshu Pagoda and see the West Lake at night~. In addition, Leifeng Pagoda is the best place to have a bird's-eye view of the West Lake. , it is worth going~ (Leifeng Pagoda ticket is 40 yuan)
If you are interested, you can go to the ferry terminal opposite the Hangzhou Building and take a water bus to tour the Hangzhou section of the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal.

3. Suburbs
The Liuhe Pagoda is very suitable for watching the sunset
Xixi Wetland (go in by boat, it’s really big, you can see water birds and ecology) is free every Tuesday
There are many farmhouse projects: drinking tea and relaxing in Meijiawu is a big hobby of Hangzhou people. You can experience it and eat mountain food.
If you are not afraid of far distances, go to surrounding places: For example, there are many interesting places in Lin'an - July is the perfect day for rafting on Tianmu River, Daming Mountain (one day is enough), and there are individual tours in Wulin Square The car is very convenient to get there. Shangougou Farmhouse and Dazhuhai in Anji are very nice~ It’s so cool in the mountains in summer.
2. Delicious places
In the Hefang Street area of ??Wushan Square, snacks are very popular and relatively cheap. It is worth recommending that there is a century-old restaurant on Hefang Street: Sheep Soup House (also known as Xiyuan), which is famous for its mutton siomai and large soup. If you want to eat authentic Hangzhou food at a reasonable price, you can eat it on Hefang Street. "Wang Runxing", Qianlong fish head and Longjing shrimp are very good!
Zhoushan East Road in the north of the city is also famous for eating snacks: since schools are gathered here, the snacks are very cheap and delicious, haha
There are also more affordable and famous restaurants There are: Grandma’s House, which is a chain operation and can be found in many places in the city.
For local specialties, I recommend the Maizhou Northeast Style Restaurant in the west of the city. The grilled lamb chops are really delicious. There are also restaurants like New White Deer Restaurant, Banana Leaf, and West Lake Spring that are all good, but a little more expensive. There are many more... Let’s not play anymore~

3. Buying clothes
The place to buy clothes in Hangzhou is really There are many: For cheaper ones, you can go to Yan'an Road, the most prosperous road in Hangzhou (many buses arrive: 151, 900, Y8...), Longxiang and the Federation of Trade Unions are both large clothing markets, and the "Pearl" in the basement next to them is A good place to buy bags and small accessories, but the price is a bit higher. You can get ordinary clothes for a few dozen yuan.
There is also the Qianjiang Market in the north of the city (bus 198, 401, 33, etc.), which has a lot of clothes and is also relatively cheap.
Furthermore, Sijiqing is very famous, and the prices vary, depending on where you shop, but there are so many things to choose from. If you go there, be early because some stores close between 3 and 4 pm.
There is a long line of clothing stores on Stadium Road (Bus No. 28, 16, etc.). Some of the styles and prices are a little higher, but they are cheaper than Wulin Road, the most famous women's clothing street in Hangzhou. Cheap and the goods are okay.
Personally think: The West Lake Times Square Premium Outlet Store next to the West Lake is pretty good. It has a lot of big stuff, so you can buy cheap and good-quality stuff~
Then there are shopping malls (all of them are Concentrated in the Yan'an Road area): Yintai, Baida, Jiebai, Yuanhua, and Lei Xing are some of the bigger ones in Hangzhou. If you come across some that hold activities, they are fine. Things in Hangzhou Tower are expensive and there are few activities.
