On the way to Leifeng Pagoda, stop by Jia Shao Noodle Restaurant for lunch and a short rest. Tickets: West Lake is free to enter, some internal attractions require tickets: Three Pools Mirroring the Moon (20 RMB), Leifeng Pagoda (40 RMB). Leifeng Pagoda has an elevator, offering panoramic views of West Lake and the city.

Tianchi Island: has a clear Tianchi Lake, and the koi fish here are big and fat. The island also has a suspension bridge, Bird Island, etc. Manage your time well. TIPS: buy food on-site at Tianchi to feed and take photos. Huangshanjian: the landmark of Qiandao Lake, offering a panoramic view of the "All Under Heaven" island group. Cable car costs about 50 RMB/person (long queue). We chose to hike up, the scenery along the way is nice, about 20 minutes to the top. Then took the cable car down. Qilong Lane: overall not very impressive, better to visit Beer Town at night for some fun. Accommodation: Fang Xiaoyi Loft Lake View Apartment, very cost-effective, great scenery, and convenient dining nearby. Day 3: Morning walk—Beer Town—Lighthouse—Return trip Morning oxygen intake is amazing. Beer Town: the legendary little Europe of Qiandao Lake, the town is not big, one hour is enough to stroll around.

Qiandao Lake Beer Town

Located in Chun'an, Zhejiang, Qiandao Lake Beer Town combines industrial style and resort atmosphere. Not only is the town free to enter, but it is also open 24 hours a day and the transportation is convenient. The biggest highlight is that you can enjoy a variety of local beers while enjoying the lake view of Thousand Island Lake, the entire park is delicately designed, European-style streets and brightly colored architectural gaps are genuine and good, and there are plenty of specialty restaurants and snacks. Recommended tour routes: It is recommended to enter from the main entrance and walk slowly along Muzhou Avenue. First, you can visit the beer workshop to visit the on-site brewing process. If you are interested, you can arrange a guided tour experience. Many people praise the fresh beer as smooth and fragrant. Afterwards, you can go to the lake for a stroll. There are many photo spots along the lake, including colorful European architectural walls and beer barrel-shaped sculptures. Restaurant Recommendation Choose the town’s own beer themed restaurant, whether it’s fried fish and chips, smoked meat platter or authentic snacks are quite a surprise, personally recommend fried food with cold beer, really cool! Must-play items: 1. Fresh freshly brewed beer samples with different flavors to choose from for adult beer fans 2. Visit the brewing workshop to learn about the making process of local beer in Thousand Island Lake 3. Take a walk by the lake and take pictures while enjoying the lake view 4. Specialty small shops and souvenirs to choose from, such as beer-themed peripherals, Lake District specialties 5. The lights are on at night, the European street scene is particularly atmospheric, remember to reserve time for a night tour Photo Spot Recommendations: - Lakeside European architectural colored wall - Large beer barrel sculpture - Town Square Round Landmark - Lighted night view bridge
