Wandering Through West Lake's Emerald Labyrinth

#chinatravel In this sultry season, lose yourself in the whispering greens of Hangzhou's western shore—where every breeze carries the music of raindrops, lapping waves, and birdsong. Breathe deep; the air here tastes like chilled mint. 🗺️ Serendipity Route: Huangmie Pavilion → Wuzhuangyuan Arch → Jihong Bridge → Snow Boat → Yuqian Dock → Turtle Pond → Yuqian Temple Pro Tip: At Turtle Pond, find the hidden bench where persimmons drop into the water each autumn—nature’s own marble game.
