we take the new crh(china railway highspeed) to hangzhou. the trip is about 1 hour and 15 minutes from shanghai south railway station to hangzhou. the ticket price is 54cny. the taxi from longyang road to shanghai south railway station is 50cny. the train is bullet shaped, even the waiting lodge in station is separated from other normal trains. when arrived, we found out our digital camera was broken. damn.
the hotel booked on ctrip is 4-star zhejiang media hotel. from the name, you can guess it is related to some broadcasting and tv entities. the hotel is about 5-minute walking distance from west lake. we booked a family suite. the suite is spacious, with one 1.6m mattress and one 1.3m. it will be a perfect one if it has a window! well, nothing can be better than home beds.
day one, we eat a little bit on the train, and take some bites in a bar on the lake. hop on a sightseeing boat for 45cny, we head for the small islet in the middle of west lake, and later another bigger islet, and also the most famous one in west lake. it has three small towers and contributes the scene of "three towers mirroring the moon".
day two, back to the lake again. this time, we rent 2 bikes (10cny for 3 hours), ride along the west lake - broken bridge, bai causeway, zhongshan park, su causeway, and the rest of lake. the lake is much bigger than we thought. when we finally arrived the spot to return the bike, it is almost 6 hours passed (lucky for us, 2 hours are for lunch, so we can have some rest). we are so exhausted.
it is soothing sitting in front of the lake, with the sound of water and the smell of osmanthus flowers.
