Newly opened! Hangzhou now has its own South of France holiday

This place is like Hangzhou's very own "Tuscany"! A South of France-style castle, sunlit fountains, swaying hydrangea fields under blue skies, and a sparkling swimming pool... It feels like stepping into a movie scene, every frame breathtakingly beautiful! The vast estate offers stunning views with few crowds—no need to squeeze through people. The owner's aesthetic is impeccable, a dream for detail lovers! Address: Around Shuangpu Town, Xihu District, Hangzhou (recommended navigation to "Good Castle Manor") 🚇 Transportation: Take Metro Line 6 to Shuangpu Station, then a 10-minute taxi ride 📸 100% photogenic must-shoot spots 1️⃣ The Castle Main Building South of France architecture: Feels like stepping into "The Grand Budapest Hotel"! Side shots or running captures are perfect for maximizing the vibe. Staircases and corridors: Roman columns and vintage street lamps add texture—every shot looks like a magazine spread! 2️⃣ Artificial Lake & Swing Backlit golden lake: At 4 PM, sunlight dances on the water like scattered gold—backlit shots are magical! Lakeside swing: Capture the motion of swinging, with flowing skirts for a lively touch! 3️⃣ Hillside Flower Fields Hydrangeas and wildflowers: The hillside looks like a spilled palette—run through in a light-colored dress for an ethereal vibe. More photogenic than Taiziwan, and way less crowded! 4️⃣ French Fountain & Lawn Fountain plaza: Roman-style sculptures + water features—wide-angle shots with a hat or parasol scream vacation vibes! Lawn picnic: Bring a checkered blanket and fruit basket for an effortless Instagram-worthy afternoon! 💡 Pro Tips Outfit ideas: Light-colored dresses, straw hats, French vintage accessories. Reds or bright colors pop against the greenery! Best time: Early morning or dusk for soft light—backlit shots are stunning. Avoid harsh noon light! ⚠️ Notes Advance booking required (especially weekends)—don’t show up unannounced! Mosquitoes are plentiful—bring repellent! Pet-friendly! Bring your furry friends to play!
