"After all, it's mid-June at West Lake, where the scenery outshines all other seasons." But here's the thing〰️ Right now, Hangzhou is insanely hot! Sisters visiting Hangzhou's 🌊 West Lake: You must! Must! MUST prioritize sun protection and heat avoidance❗ West Lake Lotus Viewing Tips: ✔️ Broken Bridge → Beishan Street → Xiling Bridge ✔️ Breeze-Ruffled Lotus at Quyuan Garden → Guo's Villa → Maojiabu ✔️ Jixian Pavilion → Orioles Singing in the Willows → Viewing Fish at Flower Harbor In this weather, just pick one short route to enjoy the 🌸 blooms! Take the sightseeing bus instead of walking if you can! Choose the large boats (with AC) over small boats~ Plus, it's summer vacation—accommodations near West Lake are quite tight~ The place I got my makeup done—Xizi Makeup Hanfu Hotel They not only offer Hanfu styling 💄 But also lodging, averaging just 100+💰 Perfect for young travelers visiting Hangzhou! Beyond West Lake, you can explore museums like: Zhejiang Museum (Gushan Branch), Hangzhou Museum, Zhejiang Art Museum… Best part? They're all indoors with AC! When visiting 🌊 West Lake, skip the tourist vibe—try being a cultural explorer instead!

🌿 Summer photoshoots in Hangzhou often come with two major headaches: crowded attractions and scorching sun—waiting in line for the perfect shot, sweaty makeup, and curious onlookers... As someone who’s socially anxious, I opted mostly for indoor shoots this time, saving the outdoor spots for dusk. Not only did I catch the sunset, but it was also much cooler—unexpectedly unlocking the perfect combo of "fewer crowds + stunning scenery + creative freedom"! The Xizi Makeup Hotel I booked offers free Hanfu rentals, with accommodation, Hanfu, and styling all in one package—super convenient! Wearing it indoors is 🆓, but for my more outgoing sisters who want outdoor shoots, rentals are available. If you can do your own ancient-style makeup, you’ll save some 💰 too. Styles range from Tang to Ming dynasty designs. I chose a soft green Warring States robe—elegant and slimming. Since my makeup skills aren’t great, I booked a stylist. The artist was incredibly gentle, giving me a "West Lake makeup" look—subtle arched brows, a touch of rouge on the lips, and a red hair ribbon, instantly evoking the poetic charm of "light or heavy, the makeup always suits." 🥹 If you love ancient-style aesthetics, this place is a must-visit! It eliminates the hassle of extra rentals and is perfect for sisters who want to try Hanfu on a budget.

| Save big on photo studio costs. Guys, I had an amazing Hanfu experience in Hangzhou, and it was absolutely stunning! I must recommend this hotel near West Lake—not only can you enjoy gorgeous Hanfu makeup and styling, but the transportation is super convenient too 🚇. Right by West Lake, the Xizi Zhuang Hanfu Hotel in Jinhe Building is just a short walk from the lake, where you can admire the views and sunset—it's unbelievably beautiful. There are so many Hanfu options; I picked a light green one and strolled around taking photos. The area is packed with great food and shopping spots. At night, head to Hubin Intime City (IN77) for some retail therapy and delicious eats—double the fun! 🏨 Hotel Environment: It's compact, with cozy rooms perfect for one or two people. Changing and freshening up for makeup and styling is easy in the room. Compared to a photo studio, this place offers better value and more creative freedom. Bring your photo-savvy bestie and save thousands on professional photos—how awesome is that?? The rooms are clean, tidy, and well-equipped. 🎀 Hanfu Makeup & Styling Experience: The hotel has a dedicated Hanfu studio with a huge variety of outfits—Qixiong Ruqun, Song-style Hanfu, Ming-style Hanfu… you name it! Everything is clean and of good quality. If you're visiting Hangzhou and want to try Hanfu, this hotel is a no-brainer—it’ll give you an unforgettable travel experience! #XiziZhuangHanfuHotel #HangzhouHotels #WestLakeHotels #HanfuMakeover
