Can I see what kind of camera was used for the photos?

So, you're heading to Hangzhou soon? Lucky you! But before you go all-in on this city of dreams, let me drop some tips for avoiding the tourist traps. Hangzhou is famous for its scenic beauty and historical sites, but not everything here is as great as it seems. For instance, while everyone talks about West Lake (and yes, it’s stunning), visiting during holidays can turn your serene stroll into a human traffic jam. And don’t get me started on the food scene—it's not exactly what you'd call diverse compared to other Chinese cities like Chengdu or Guangzhou. If you’re planning a trip, try visiting outside peak seasons and skip crowded areas unless you enjoy elbow-to-elbow crowds. Also, if someone tells you about an 'authentic local experience,' double-check reviews because sometimes authenticity comes with extra fees. Happy travels!

Gotta try a bowl of Suzhou's traditional shrimp and eel noodles.

I went today too!

Haha, some people have just lost all reason.

Most of them are just about trivial, insignificant things.

The clear skies after the downpour make today even more beautiful! I feel like I walked down this street yesterday.

Boycott Shenzhen's street food stalls.

Exactly.

This is the most savage diss Disney has ever received.

You just didn't find the right spot, that's all.

It really does look good!

All big cities are pretty much the same.

No, I doubt it. Some people will rush to go on the very last day. When 'some people' becomes many, it just gets more crowded. Actually, the time just before and after the National Day holiday is the most pleasant season in Beijing.

Isn't the point of traveling to experience food and sights different from what you have at home? If the food is just like what you eat at home, can you even call it traveling? Besides, you probably learned about places like the Old Summer Palace, the Summer Palace, and the Temple of Heaven in school, right? Didn't you know they were ancient architectural sites before you came?

Are the surrounding shops managed by the scenic area? So when you try to get cash using your card, it's not the merchant who wants to charge you, but rather they have to pay a 12% commission to the scenic area?

There's a path next to Lingyin Temple that lets you bypass it and climb directly from the mountain base to Lingshun Temple.

I don't think so. We don't just feel that Shanghai's prosperity is irrelevant to ordinary people; we feel that the prosperity of any first-tier city is irrelevant to ordinary people. We're just here to work, earn money, and then leave. We can hardly ever truly possess those skyscrapers and the glitz and glamour, so what does all that prosperity have to do with us?

Hahahahaha, I can't take it! You're making me laugh so hard I'm going crazy!

LOL, 'getting used to being randomly scolded before' – you can tell at a glance they're from Hong Kong.
