After confirming the order, the billing starts. ✅ Rowing boat: can seat 6 people, 150 yuan/hour/boat, the hull is relatively narrow, and the small boat is convenient for playing in the water.

It is wild and natural along the way. In March and April, cherry blossoms are in full bloom on both sides of the river. It is very beautiful to sway under the falling cherry blossoms. Because I was visiting in July, I finally decided to choose another "Jinsha Port Route". Lotus flowers are blooming at this time of summer, and the Jinsha Port Route will pass through Quyuan Fenghe. I saw many sharings saying that you can contact the master in advance to make an appointment. I didn't make an appointment and went directly to the Hangfan Pier to take the boat. The whole journey took nearly 2 hours and the charter boat cost 300 yuan. 📍Boat Pier ✅Hangfan Pier (Jinsha Port Route): Located on the lakeside opposite the Shangri-La Hotel on Beishan Road, you can take a taxi to navigate to "Hangzhou Hotel" (If you take the Wuguitan route, you can take a taxi to navigate to "Su Dongpo Memorial Hall" and go to Majiawan Pier) 🌳 Jinsha Port Route Hangfan Pier→Yuehu Lake→Quyuan Fenghe→Jinsha Port→Hangzhou Flower Garden→Maojiabu→Guozhuang→Guahong Bridge→Hangfan Pier Driving towards Maojiabu, water birds are flying, the water is rippling, there are flowers and greenery along the way, it is comfortable and leisurely, and the scenery is pleasant~ 💡 TIPS ✔️Try to go in the morning in summer, the temperature and scenery in the morning are more comfortable ✔️There are many mosquitoes in summer, remember to prepare mosquito repellent if you take the green tree wetland route ✔️The voyage is generally more than 1 hour, you can prepare some drinks and snacks by yourself ✔️If the wind is strong, the canopy of the hand-rowed boat will be folded up, remember to take sun protection in advance and pay attention to sun protection #江南水乡 #杭州西湖#HangzhouTravel #West Lake Cruise
