White Lady's must-visit attractions are here!

Arrive at Broken Bridge before 8 AM when there are fewer people for better photos. 🗺Recommended route: Broken Bridge Snow - Bai Causeway - Autumn Moon over the Calm Lake - Solitary Hill⛰️ - Su Causeway - Viewing Fish at Flower Harbor🐟 - Leifeng Pagoda. The entire walk takes about 4 hours, or you can rent a shared bike🚲 to get around. 🍱Must-try foods: West Lake Vinegar Fish🐟 at Lou Wai Lou (go early to queue), Xiaolongbao at Zhiweiguan, Dingsheng Cake🍘 and Scallion Pancake🥠 on Hefang Street. In summer, definitely try lotus root powder🍛 and West Lake Water Shield Soup🍲. 🌲Hidden gems: Maojiabu on Yangong Causeway has beautiful scenery with fewer tourists, and Wugui Pond is especially beautiful at sunset. To avoid crowds, visit Guozhuang Garden or Qu Yuan Garden with Lotus Breeze. 🚗Transportation tips: Metro🚄 Line 1 Longxiang Bridge Station is closest but very crowded. Recommend taking bus🚌 routes 7, 27 or a taxi to Youth Palace Station to start your tour. West Lake boat options include large boats🛥️ for 55 yuan or hand-paddled boats🚤 for 150 yuan/hour. 🍃Best seasons: March-April for peach blossoms🌸, June-July for lotus flowers🪷, September-October for osmanthus🌼 fragrance. Remember to bring an umbrella☔, as Hangzhou weather changes frequently.
