►The falling cherry blossoms create a more artistic atmosphere now ▪ At the end of March, the cherry blossoms in Hangzhou are nearing their end, and the cherry trees in various parks have started the 'cherry blossom rain' mode. We found a scene of cherry blossoms fluttering in the Hangzhou Children's Park, which is extremely romantic ▪ The oldest cherry trees here are over 30 years old, mainly distributed along the central axis of the park, that is, the Sun Square, Fun Slope, and Moon Square area. The main varieties of cherry blossoms include Yoshino cherry, Oshima cherry, and late-blooming Yaezakura ▪ The cherry blossom forest in the children's park has staircases with non-powered facilities, which are very suitable for taking children to play ►Photo Spots ▪ On the stairs in front of the entrance fountain ▪ Go to the top of the park, where cherry blossom petals fall every second around you. You can bring a ladder, stand on it, and shoot upwards to capture the atmosphere of being surrounded by flowers ▪ The cherry blossom petals on the ground can be used as a background for a unique perspective when lying down and taking a photo from above ▪ Aerial photography of the entrance stairs, note that you need to register at the entrance for drone photography ▪ You can bring some small props like fans or musical instruments, which add to the atmosphere ►Ticket Price: 15 yuan ►Transportation: Driving is not recommended, taking a bus or taxi is more convenient

Hangzhou in March and April is already brimming with spring warmth It's the perfect season for flower photography A few days ago, my social media was flooded with posts of the Binjiang cherry blossom trail I really wanted to go and check in But there were just too many people The landlady of the guesthouse recommended a less popular spot for cherry blossom viewing The Children's Park, where there are slightly fewer people I chose a nice sunny day A gentle breeze caressed my face, and cherry blossoms fluttered down Scenes from Makoto Shinkai's '5 Centimeters Per Second' immediately came to mind 🏕️: Hangzhou Youth and Children's Park 📍: No. 60, Hupao Road, Xihu District 🎫: 10rmb ⏱️: 8:30-16:30 🕹️Tips: 1️⃣Wear light-colored clothes, girls can choose pear blossom white or pink, it will make for better photos 2️⃣Try to go in the morning, there are fewer people than in the afternoon 3️⃣Find a companion to take photos with, because it's really beautiful You can also visit Taiziwan to take pictures of tulips, or Yuquwan and Turtle Pond, which are also off-the-beaten-path spots for cherry blossom viewing 4️⃣Selectively bring some props, like a clear umbrella, books, or a musical instrument for the photoshoot, it will make for great pictures

A severely underrated spot for taking kids out. The queues at the Youth Palace during weekends can compare to Disney! A 40-minute wait for one activity, really hard to love But kids need to be taken out, so why not go to Hangzhou Children's Park~ This park would probably rank in my top three places to take kids out in spring❗ ✅ Recommended Reasons 1⃣ The park has a large free play area with climbing frames and slides, where kids can play for most of the day, burning off energy and exercising without costing mom a dime! 2⃣ The cherry blossoms in the Children's Park, paired with winding stairs, bring the romance of a teen drama to reality! 3⃣ Not crowded, in contrast to the herd at the Youth Palace, this place really counts as less crowded 4⃣ Seamlessly connected to the neighboring zoo and Tiger Running, if you get tired of playing, you can go next door to see your favorite animals 5⃣ The bumper cars that kids love have no height restrictions, we are 114cm, but most bumper cars require a height of over 120cm ⭕ Talking about the benefits, let's mention some pitfalls 1⃣ The paid attractions are not very cost-effective, if you go often, consider getting a season pass 2⃣ The park is located in the heart of the West Lake scenic area, not as convenient as the Youth Palace, but I managed to get there by subway + shared bike, so transportation is also solved ✅ Practical Information Tickets: Adults 15, park card 🆓, amusement rides are extra Transport: There is a parking lot at the entrance of the park, if you arrive early you can choose to drive, otherwise take the subway + shared bike like me Suitable age range: I think kids aged 3-12 can find fun activities there, especially the free climbing, I really love it! ✅ My Itinerary 1⃣ Take the subway to Shuicheng Bridge, rent a shared bike nearby and ride to the Children's Park, there is a slope on the way, if you're not physically strong, please get off and push 2⃣ Enter with a park annual pass, children under 120cm are free 3⃣ Check out Dinosaur Paradise + bumper cars, the kids' favorites 4⃣ Climbing and large slide area, adults chat and snack under the cherry trees 5⃣ Walk through the park to the zoo to see giraffes and elephants 6⃣ Take the bus from the zoo entrance to Shuicheng Bridge subway station, subway home Spring is a great time for the great outdoors, bring your kids out to play~ This is Meaty Mom sharing a channel for family travel, if you like, please follow 🐷

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cherry blossoms in Moshan, Hangzhou are about to bloom. After photographing cherry blossoms for 5 years, I've organized a cherry blossom viewing route around West Lake for everyone. There are 10 places, all around West Lake, and each has its own charm. 1️⃣ Manao Temple A niche temple with hardly any tourists, there are several large cherry trees in the courtyard, very Zen. 2️⃣ Sudi The cherry trees on Sudi are close to the water, and you can also capture mandarin ducks playing in the water. 3️⃣ Quyuan Fenghe A classic spot, with ancient architecture surrounded by cherry blossoms. 4️⃣ Yunsong Book Residence A private garden built by Mr. Jin Yong, now open to the public, with beautiful reflections on the water. 5️⃣ Daise Siantian Besides the cherry blossoms near the bridge tunnel, there are also two large cherry trees next to the pavilion. 6️⃣ China Tea Museum There are many cherry trees here, and the thatched cottages are very distinctive. 7️⃣ Turtle Pool There are also many cherry trees at Turtle Pool, and there is a platform near Yanggong Dike that is great for taking photos. 8️⃣ Flower Harbor Park There are also quite a few cherry trees here, and it's more crowded with tourists. 9️⃣ Taiziwan Park Cherry blossoms and tulips bloom together, and there is also a large windmill. 1️⃣0️⃣ Hangzhou Children's Park The most beautiful cherry blossom staircase, with few people and beautiful scenery. 🌸 Photography & Travel Tips 1️⃣ The cherry blossom season is generally in late March, and the blooming period is short, so if you want to see the cherry blossoms, plan your trip in advance. 2️⃣ These cherry blossom spots are basically around West Lake, you can choose a few that interest you and visit them together. 3️⃣ Except for the Children's Park, which has an admission fee of 10 yuan, the other places do not require an admission fee. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The cherry blossoms in the Children's Park are very dense, and they are planted along both sides of the stairs, from the hillside to the bottom, so it looks very layered on the scene. The S-shaped stairs with the cherry blossoms under the full tree are really beautiful, but there are usually many people, and the unavoidable crowd plus the gloomy weather make it not very good for taking pictures. Perhaps the earliest time the park opens every day is the best shooting time. Most of the interior of the Children's Park is hidden in the green forest, and it is connected to the Hangzhou Zoo. The amusement facilities in the Children's Park are also quite complete, and the renovation and upgrade in recent years have made it an ideal choice for children to play. Children's Park Address: 61 Hupao Road, Hangzhou (next to Hangzhou Zoo) 10 yuan for the ticket (free before the end of March) / Free for the park card Photo position Standing on the cherry blossom road, shooting with a telephoto lens from the square can capture the spectacular scene surrounded by cherry blossoms Take a photo with the little rabbit & moon, stand on the steps, and let the area of cherry blossoms be more Transportation: Bus No. 4/31/315/3181/194/197 to Hangzhou Zoo Station Self-driving: Map navigation, there is a large parking lot at the entrance of the Children's Park
