Lost at West Lake? This Is Your Sign!
-
The highlights!
-
This route looks good, right? Planning to go on the 1st.
-
Walking the entire way would be unbearable.
-
Excuse me, roughly how long does it take to complete this route? We're planning to visit Lingyin Temple in the morning and West Lake in the afternoon.
-
In that case, you're looking at at least 30,000 steps. Half a day should be roughly enough time to cover it.
-
If I only have the morning, where should I get a taxi to? I'm planning to set out at 5 AM.
-
Maybe just take a stroll around the Hubin (Lakeside) area.
-
Any accommodation recommendations around here?
-
Qingzhiwu, Manjuelong... guesthouses (B&Bs) are everywhere in those areas.
-
Excuse me, where exactly is this? Thanks!
-
Haha, what a coincidence! I took this exact route today. Started at 6:00 AM and I'm at Leifeng Pagoda now. The whole journey has been so refreshing and uplifting.
-
So jealous!
-
Take a taxi to Yu Qian Shrine, then stroll along the river by Wugui Pond towards Yuhu Bay. It's the perfect condensed, refreshing nature tour, very pleasant and even suitable for seniors.
-
Good to know!
-
Do you recommend walking from north to south? I'm staying near the East Railway Station, and starting from Taiziwan (Prince Bay Park) is a bit far. (Also, any suggestions on how to get there from the East Station? It might be too early for the subway. Can I cycle to Beishan Street?)

Take a taxi to the Children's Palace, or take the subway to Fengqi Road Station.
