After going n times, I finally got the hang of Qiandao Lake

Qiandao Lake, having been there n times, the first place I think of when summer comes is Qiandao Lake. It's really a great destination for a getaway around Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai! The main attraction is the laid-back, Buddhist-style tour~ leisurely spending a weekend! I have to say, Qiandao Lake is really suitable for finding a high cost-effective lakeside room to relax on vacation. This time, we all agreed that staying at Liwo was especially joyful! The rooms are big, and the decor is Nordic minimalist style😸. Mainly, besides the comfortable living environment, there are several terraces with lake views🏕. Eating, chatting, and enjoying the lake view is just too comfortable!!! What's even more amazing is that there is a small garden behind the building we stayed in, 🪵 brick walls, 🍀 dense grapevines, 🌤 sunlight shimmering through the grapevines, 🌊 the distant blue lake surface, it's too beautiful!🥺 🅿️Transportation: 🚄High-speed rail can reach Qiandao Lake Station in 50 minutes, transfer to the scenic shuttle bus or public transport to the corresponding scenic area 🚃Buses can reach Qiandao Lake Bus Terminal 🚘Self-driving is even more recommended, as it's more convenient to visit various attractions ❣️Qiandao Lake attractions: 1️⃣Qiandao Lake Beer Town🍺 🎫Free, the architecture has a bit of a European flair, there are many activities, hot air balloons, go-karts, Qiandao Eye Ferris wheel, suitable for bringing kids to play.
