📌Know this： and your trip will be completely different！ #Hangzhou #WestLake #ChinaTravel#VisitChina#TravelChina

Hangzhou will punish anyone who ignores these tips. First, visiting West Lake. Ignore this and you'll walk the entire lake. That's a brutal 14 kilometers walk. Your legs will be dead. Follow the tip, take the water bus. For just 8 RMB, you can enjoy West Lake effortlessly. Second, taking photos of Laifang Pagoda. Ignore this and you'll end up stuck in crowds under the tower. Follow the tip, go to Changchiao Park or the south end of Siu Causeway. For the best shots with the Pagoda and West Lake in one frame, third, trying local snacks. Ignore this and go to Hefang Street, overpriced and disappointing tourist food. Follow the tip, go to Woolen Night Market. Tons of chewy, delicious desserts. You can eat your fill for around 30 RMB. Fourth, always book tickets in advance in Hangzhou. Lingyan Temple, Faxi Temple, and J-Jung Provincial Museum all require online reservations in advance. Message me and I'll plan everything for you. From food to hotels to experiences. Everything taken care of.
