In the CBD center, yet with the feel of both a vacation and home, truly fragrant!

The small attractions with few people found on the Internet are indeed very suitable for leisure and relaxation, and are full of wild fun. However, it may be that taking photos does not see that coming here has something to do with the West Lake haha.
It feels like "peaceful appearance", there is nothing special, but the more you walk, the more curved, the more beautiful the scenery, the sound of the flowing water along the way, the thick green of the old wooden trees that are climbing, it is best to come here on a sunny day to play, feel the smoke, green trees, streams, bird songs along the way, Cloud shadow and other natural beauty, along the stream all the way, heavy stacking, tea garden scattered.
The back of the West Lake is relatively not as crowded and popular as the core scenic spot of the West Lake. [Fun] The wild fun here feels more integrated. Some tea gardens and other scenic spots can see the [View] and the landscape.
Hangzhou took Maojiabu as a destination after reading the comments, but it was raining and almost missed the scenic spot. It was decided at 4 o'clock after the rain that the trip would be worthwhile. Despite the depressed winter, almost no tourists in the scenic area grew greener in the mist and rain, creating a better atmosphere. The delicate fragrance of plum blossoms drifted quietly to add a lot of interest. It's only a short walk along the scenic spot, but it's highly recommended.
Lingyin Temple starts with a taxi. There are no tickets in the scenic spot. It is very convenient for Hangzhou to enjoy excellence. The environment and the West Lake are too few and too many people. There are not many tourists here, but the scenery is better than before. They love the quietness here more than before. Maojiabu is divided into upper and lower ports. This side is Xiamaojiabu, because the rain has only gone half a circle, there should be more than half of the scenery can not be seen. After walking for half an hour, it is estimated that there will be more tea houses and cruise boat terminals in less than two hours. It is suggested to bring some water and snacks. There is no supermarket along the way in the scenic spot. You won't be disappointed if you don't want to be here in a crowded crowd!
Compared with the crowds of the West Lake, Maojiabu is as quiet and tranquil as the paradise. The scenery is more compact than the West Lake. The West Lake gives people a feeling of a whole large area of water. The delicacy around Maojiabu Lake is more exquisite. It is really strongly recommended to go. It is really beautiful.
Living on Santai Mountain Road, when you come out to visit the West Lake, the first stop is Yanggongdi, Maojiabu. There are far fewer people here than the main scenic spot of the West Lake. It is quiet and tranquil. There are reeds and lotus fragments. There are no boats on the lake but fishing boats for grass and water. Walking around Maojiabu is a must-miss stop for visiting the West Lake.
