Tai-chi Altar in Hangzhou ☯️📍
You can find this amazing spot in Oriental Culture Park just 30 mins. away from Hangzhou’s city center. get your ticket for 80 RMB at the front gate. This was the last spot I visited from the park since is very deep inside, but is definitely worth it (specially if you plan to take some drone shots).
Worth a visit as well as the rest of the installations on the park! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 #hangzhou #china

Thousand Buddhas in Hangzhou 🪷✨
#visithangzhou A hidden gem in Hangzhou! The Oriental Culture park has sculptures & statues from referring to Buddhist, Taoist and Confucian times.
It’s not a popular place in the city and it’s also very far from the city center past Xianghu Lake, but it’s a great spot for phones 📸 & drones enthusiasts 🚁 I arrived at 13.30 and it was a ghost town!
The park is beautiful, but parts of it are also run down for an admission ticket costing 80¥!Nevertheless, it has gorgeous spots and architecture to check out 💯

Ciao Uncle @Zhenong Dongchao Art Park
Pictures speak louder than words ✌️
How to get there: get a cab to the art park and then just walk straight until the end, can’t miss it
What’s to see: old train station that was changed to the Ciao Uncle Motorcycle Club with great coffee and (now they should also have) food - bit pricey though with a Cappuccino at 80rmb
What to look for: nice motorcycles everywhere, check out the Harleys

Oriental Culture Park🌿
The oriental Culture park is a nice place to walk around and take some nice photos but the park is still under development although still worth visiting. If you like flying drones you’ll definitely enjoy this place!

A forgotten Instagrammable spot in Hangzhou.
Recently, I went to this almost forgotten Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism-themed scenic area in Hangzhou with my friends.
📍Oriental Culture Park
🎫 CNY 80 for adults, half price for children (free for children under 1.2 meters), Hangzhou Cultural Tourism Card is accepted
Photo tips📸:
📌 Taoist Scenic Area: Taiji Altar☯️, Taoist Temple, and Cave. The aerial view of the Taiji Altar is spectacular, like a scene from a fantasy TV series.
📌 Confucian Scenic Area: Confucius Statue, Analects of Confucius Stele Gallery, and Apricot Altar.
📌 Guanyin Temple: Guanyin Statue, Guanyin Mountain Sculpture, and Buddhist Music Fountain. When the fountain is turned on, the Guanyin Statue will slowly rise to the top of the mountain, and the mist will be sprayed out, creating a surreal atmosphere.
📌 Underground Palace of the Ten Thousand Buddha Golden Pagoda: The underground palace is built in the style of the Thai Royal Palace, with 9,999 golden Buddha statues inside and outside the pagoda, and the building itself is a Buddha statue.
📌 Better atmosphere on rainy days

Almost empty! A forgotten Instagrammable spot in Hangzhou.
Recently, I went to this almost forgotten scenic area with my friends. It combines Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism—Oriental Culture Park.
🎫Ticket information: CNY 80 for adults, half price for children (free for children under 1.2 m), and you can swipe your Hangzhou Cultural Tourism Card.
📸Photo tips:
🧐Taoist scenic area: Taiji Altar, Daoyuan Tiangong, and Bieyou Cave are amazing. The aerial view of the Taiji Altar's Bagua pattern is spectacular, just like the setting of a fantasy drama.
🤓Confucian scenic area: Confucius Statue, Analects of Confucius Stele Gallery, and Apricot Altar are all full of cultural charm. The Confucius Statue is tall and majestic, the Analects of Confucius Stele Gallery is full of cultural atmosphere, and the Apricot Altar is unique.
😜Guanyin Manifestation: Guanyin Statue, Guanyin Mountain Group Sculpture, and Buddhist Music Fountain are stunning. When the Buddhist Music Fountain is activated, the Guanyin Statue slowly rises to the top of the mountain, and the mist system sprays mist, creating a surreal atmosphere.
👏Underground Palace of the Ten Thousand Buddha Golden Pagoda: It is built in the style of the Thai Royal Palace, with 9,999 golden Buddha statues inside and outside the pagoda. The whole building looks like a giant Buddha, which is very impressive!
Also, it's even better to visit on a rainy day!🤗

Hangzhou Oriental Culture Park
This attraction is really too low-key! It's like an undeveloped gem, but its beauty is definitely not inferior to other popular attractions! 🌟
📍Location: Hangzhou Oriental Culture Park, specifically located in the Xianghu Scenic Area of Yiqiao Town, Xiaoshan District.
⏰Opening Hours: From 7:30 am to 5:00 pm.
🚗Transportation: It is recommended to drive by yourself or take public transportation. Take the subway line 1 to Xianghu Station, and then transfer to bus 405 to get there.
💰Ticket Price: The ticket is 50 yuan per person, but now you can buy a cultural tourism card for only 29.9 yuan, which allows free admission to 17 attractions in Hangzhou, and the key is unlimited access throughout the year! 💥
📸Photo Spots Recommended:
Taiji Altar: Where you can feel the profoundness of ancient Chinese culture.
Heavenly Palace: As if it could lead to another mysterious world.
Jade Emperor Pavilion: Antique and full of historical sense.
Thousand Buddha Golden Pagoda Underground Palace: Solemn and mysterious.
Sanjiang Pagoda: Towering into the clouds with a broad view.
Fortune and Longevity Twin Giant Rock Statues: A unique landscape that has both the weight of history and a modern breath.
Outfit Suggestions: Ancient style, long skirts, bright colors like white and red are suitable for large scenes. There are also various European-style buildings in the park. Oriental Culture Park is a 4A scenic spot, but it's not crowded, giving a feeling of having the whole place to yourself. The weather is getting hotter, so it's best to find a cool afternoon to visit. The scenic area is quite large, and the visiting time is about 3 hours. Remember to take sun protection measures! 🌞
Finally, I wish everyone a happy time at the Oriental Culture Park!

The Oriental Culture Park, the Zen culture of the atmosphere
scenic area is the elegant atmosphere of the East-style mansion, reminds me of the princes of Beijing, Baylor House. Flying squats, carved beams and painted buildings. Standing at the door, you can see the harmony of the two. The sculptures on both sides of the gate of the scenic spot are the unique "Shouxing" and "Fuxing" of the Chinese folk, and are smiling to welcome all the tourists who come. Guanyin Xiansheng is the most popular part of the scenic spot for visitors to stop. When the Vatican Fountain starts, the Guanyin icon slowly rises to the top of the mountain, and the fog is ejected, which is also true and magical, just like the Guanyin Bodhisattva is on the earth. The world is blessed with holy water and Pudu sentient beings.
The treasure of another town hall is the Wanfo Jinta underground palace built like the style of the Thai palace. Inside the underground palace, the gallery wall is engraved with Buddhist scriptures; the gold-brick floor is splendid, and the Buddhist temple displays many national-level Buddhist relics, Gaochun relics, Buddhist giants, ivory miniature carvings, and a Tibetan Buddhist pagoda. Walking out of the underground palace, you can follow the mountain road. There is a Sanjiang pagoda on the top of the mountain overlooking the magnificent scene of the Sanjiang River. The mountains are not high, the bamboo forests on both sides are bamboo, the birds are turning, and the bells are far away. Although many of the pilgrims who came to visit are old, they still insist on walking up the mountain and then climbing to the top of the tower. The devout faith brings a silent touch.

The Oriental Culture Park is located in Yangshuo Mountain, Xiaoqiao Town, Xiaoshan, where Qiantang River, Fuchun River and Puyang River meet. At first I thought that this is a garden. In fact, this is a comprehensive park that integrates garden culture, religious culture and health culture.
I haven't entered the gate of the park, I saw a big stone carving. I don't particularly know how to sing one of these three, but it is always a representative building.
Although it is a cultural park with three coexistences, in general, Confucianism is infiltrated into the other two. Confucian thought is not a belief, but can only be a cultural existence. As our local Taoist culture, although it has existed for thousands of years, it has never been completely independent. In a sense, the two Confucianists are inseparable, and this can be seen in both literary works and architectural concepts.

The Hangzhou Oriental Cultural Garden scenic spot is 15 kilometers away from downtown Hangzhou and Xiaoshan City. The location is superior. It is adjacent to Xianghu Lake, right to Yupu, rightside village, long grass, shallow mountain and clear water, beautiful scenery. The layout of the Zhouyi Eight Diagrams, the Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and the 2,728-meter painted art gallery run through the eight scenic spots of the park, fully demonstrating the rich connotation and profound heritage of the oriental traditional culture. The famous scenic spots in the Cultural Park include the world's rare melon orchards, Shanrui Scenic Area, Oriental Resort, Confucian Scenic Area and many more. Here, you can learn about the beauty of many different features. When you come to Hangzhou, it is a good place to visit.
