Qianjiang Evening News Hourly News Trainee reporter Xu Ziying Reporter Zhang Ran Correspondent Hu Yanjie
Taking a boat through the two embankments of Suyang, along the Shangxiang Ancient Road, enjoying the beautiful scenery, listening to the sound of water and birdsong, you can't help but have a kind of "who envies the birds, people in the boat are immortals" meaning.
On October 18, Hangzhou West Lake Cruise Co., Ltd.'s newly launched multi-site "West Lake Tour Line" began trial operation (previous reports poked here: who can stand this?). If you want to fly on Monday morning, the multi-station "West Lake Tour Line" began trial operation today).
What is so special about this route? What views do you pass by? Why do many people call it the favorite of old Hangzhou? Qianjiang Evening News hourly news reporter preemptively help everyone to experience.
1] The whole two-hour tour, the real sense of the great lake tour
"Bus boat" on the water, that is, stop and enjoy the scenery
This is the first time that the West Lake Cruise has launched a route around the West Lake, with a total of 10 stops, starting from Tingwan Riding and Shooting (One Park), stopping at Lakeside Qingyu (Five Parks), Broken Bridge Residual Snow (Children's Palace), Pinghu Autumn Moon (Zhongshan Park), Huahao Full Moon (Hang Rice), Quyuan Fenghe (Guo Zhuang), Maoxiang Water (Du Jinsheng Former Residence), Huagang Guanyu, Eighteen Xiangsheng (Long Bridge), Qianci Table Zhong (Qianwang Temple), and finally back to Tingwan Riding shooting (a park).
Previously, the West Lake Cruise Route already had a classic island tour and a Song style tour. The destination of the classic island tour route is The Three Pools of Indoki Island (Xiaoyingzhou), there are 13 piers along the West Lake, and visitors can choose any one to go to the island. Songfeng characteristic tour route through the Bai Causeway - Pinghu Autumn Moon - Su Causeway - Three Pools (as a 5-minute stop) - Leifeng Pagoda (Xizi State Guesthouse) - Willow Wave Singing Warbler - Lakeside Musical Fountain - Back to the Wharf, around the outer lake for a week, the time is about 50 minutes.
The "West Lake Lake Tour Line" is the "Great Lake Tour" of the Eight Classics, the previous lake was only in the outer lake tour, and now it is to connect the outer lake and the inner lake, the whole route is about 16 kilometers, there are more stations to visit, the time around the lake is longer, and the whole tour takes about two hours.
In addition, the previous tour around the lake was "the original up and down", which station, you must return to that station, you can not get off the boat halfway.
"West Lake around the lake tour line" can be like a bus, want to sit to which station, you can buy that station to get off the boat, halfway up and down at any time, more convenient for tourists to visit the attractions of each station.
The experience of the hourly news reporter this time is to take a boat from Huahaoyue Station, pass through Quyuan Fenghe, Maoxiang water conditions, to Huagang to watch fish and disembark, each stop is docked at the dock, passengers can get on and off the boat.
It should be noted that unlike the subway rules, the ticket you buy can only be used on this one boat. If you buy two tickets, but see the good scenery in the middle of the way, only sit for one stop and want to get off the ship, the extra stop will be automatically voided and cannot be used on the next ship.
2] Visit the depths of the west of the lake and recreate the lingyin on the perfume road
This is how many old Hangzhou's favorites
Careful friends will find that the names of the 10 stations of the "West Lake Tour Line" are all poetic four words, and many of them are classic West Lake landscapes.
Many landscape beads are strung together, and the humanistic connotation is infiltrated into the tour route, and each stop is worth watching. The natural landscape and the cultural landscape complement each other, which truly embodies the cultural concept of "the unity of nature and man" in the West Lake.
At each stop, the docent sister will explain the surrounding scenery and its historical origins to the passengers on the boat, and classical poetry will be handy. While savoring the lake and mountains, passengers listened to interesting explanations, physically soothing, mentally relaxed, and enjoyed it!
The first stop for hourly news reporters is Quyuan Fenghe Station. Crossing the Su Causeway across the Rainbow Bridge to Yue Lake, you will arrive at the performance venue of "Impression West Lake", the stage will sink underwater on weekdays, and the stage will float on the surface when performing at night.
Driving a while further, there is the Quyuan Wind Lotus, one of the Ten Scenic Spots of the West Lake, which is planted with hundreds of kinds of lotus flowers. Of course, in summer, you can see the lotus and enjoy the scenery here, but now it is autumn, and there is also the meaning of "leaving the lotus to listen to the sound of rain". After that, it passed the jade belt bridge of "three rings connecting the floating jade belt, clear sky and no rain falling rainbow", and the "jade belt qinghong" here is also one of the "Eighteen Views of the West Lake".
Not only are there top ten stops, but there will also be many beautiful scenery that should not be missed along the way, which needs to be carefully searched by tourists.
Many of the old Hangzhou's long-cherished West Lake West Route is the highlight of the "West Lake Lake Tour Line", which can break the shackles of the outer lake excursion, go deep into Xili Lake, and return to the old bottom of the past, leisurely slow time.
In the past, if you wanted to go to Siri Lake, you could only use the more expensive hand-cranked boat of 150 yuan per hour, with this lake line, it only takes a few dollars from the outer lake to the Xili Lake, and in comparison, the cost performance is also good.
Entering Xili Lake, you will come to Guozhuang, known as the "crown of the classical garden of the West Lake", which is the only complete private garden in Hangzhou. If visitors want to enjoy it up close, get off the boat at Quyuan Fenghe Station and walk to it, which is very convenient.
The second stop for hourly news reporters is Maoxiang Water. This is where we explore the underwater forest of the West Lake and go to the Shangxiang Water Road of Lingyin Tianzhu.
In 2003, the West Lake Comprehensive Protection Project opened up a water area of 0.9 square kilometers of the New West Lake, and Maojiabu is the largest of them. In 2011, in order to protect the ecological environment of the West Lake and purify the water quality, the Management Committee of the West Lake Scenic Area put a large number of algae similar to black algae and goldfish algae into the lake, and in the summer, the sun shone on the clear lake water, and the water and grass in the lake swayed, forming a unique landscape of "underwater forest".
Further on, on the right side of the boat, you can see a trail of the Shangxiang Ancient Road. In ancient times, pilgrims had to go to Tianzhu Ling to hide incense, and if they took the waterway, they needed to hire a small boat from the lakeside, ferry themselves to Maojiabu, and then moor the boat ashore. Therefore, at that time, the commercial ports near Maojiabu were gathered, and there were many liquor stores and tea houses, which were extremely lively.
The "West Lake Tour Line" restores the previous route.
After disembarking at this station, you can go to the neighborhood for a walk, stroll around, experience the leisurely environment of the new West Lake, drink tea, enjoy the scenery, and experience another scene of the "Eighteen Views of the West Lake" - Tianzhu Xiang City.
