Tell me about this trip


When it comes to Hangzhou, people always think of the famous West Lake.

Therefore, whenever tourists travel to Hangzhou, most of them choose to live around the West Lake. On one side, there are busy busy streets and on the other side, there are quiet lakes and forests, which satisfy the novelty of tourism and the convenience of life. Therefore, the surrounding area of the West Lake was once my heart. The most ideal resort.

After traveling back and forth to Hangzhou many times, I discovered that there is another vacation paradise hidden in Hangzhou City, called Xixi Paradise.


Garden x Dream

When you first met Xixi Paradise, it was deep and elegant. It was not as complicated as the urban area and the constant flow of people from the West Lake. It only took half an hour to get from Hangzhou East to Xixi Paradise, but it was enough to make you forget that you were still staying in downtown Hangzhou.

There are shopping streets, outlets, restaurants, and resorts here. It has been ten years since then, ten years in the blink of an eye. As time goes by, more and more people feel the tranquility here.

Ten years ago, there was nothing here, but ten years later, it became the best resort in Hangzhou. Walking to Xixi, I am honored to participate in the media conference of Xixi Paradise's "Ten Years Moment" topic film and the 10th Anniversary Celebration of Xixi Paradise. This is a grand event and a review of ten-year dreams.

"Garden X Dream" is a garden scene show belonging to Xixi Paradise. It slowly kicks off on various stages in Xixi Paradise. You can feel the joy of this celebration in various hotels in the park.

There are luminous lion dances, musical instruments solos, and kung fu and water show dance performances. Every performance is full of passion. In the hotel at Banyan Tree, I believe that every guest can feel this unique joy, accompanied by music, it seems to have passed through every wonderful moment of the past ten years.

From Xixi Banyan Tree, to Sheraton, to Xixuan Hotel, you can see many women dressed in ancient costumes coming with lanterns. Under the light, they look beautiful and mysterious, as if we have traveled back to ancient times.

At this moment, Xixi Paradise has become the most eye-catching stage in Hangzhou. Garden X Dream has built this place into a unique dream water town belonging to Jiangnan. Everyone who approaches Xixi Paradise will have a different feeling., they also lamented this land.

At Xixuan, Banyan Tree and Sheraton Hotels, you can listen to a Kunqu Opera live. As one of the oldest operas in China, it is also a traditional culture and art of the Han Chinese people, so you can often hear Kunqu Opera known as the ancestor of the Hundred Operas. It is also a national intangible cultural heritage.

The history of Kunqu Opera is still very long. When paired with the ancient Jiangnan charm of Xixi Paradise, there is no sense of discord. Perhaps when walking in this quiet land, anyone will begin to have the leisure and elegance to listen to the music, because it will make you feel the long-lost relaxation and comfort.


Xixi Banyan Tree

In Xixi Paradise, there are a total of 5 hotels, including Xixi Banyan Tree, Yuechuan, Xixuan, Brooke and Sheraton. If the one with the best environment and the highest quality is of course Banyan Tree.

The environment is quiet and antique. This is undoubtedly the most suitable place for a vacation. Every corner of the Banyan Tree Hotel reveals the elegance and tranquility that Jiangnan deserves. Perhaps people who come here for vacation come for this tranquility.

The pavilions and pavilions are surrounded by green bamboos, willows and flowers, and the environment of Banyan Tree has reached its peak. The moment you walk into the hotel, it really feels like you have returned to the traditional Jiangnan residential buildings, soft and comfortable.

With white walls and black tiles, lanterns hung high, it is a single-family villa. Each room combines traditional culture with modern holiday culture. The room is very large. From the balcony to the living room, to the guest room, and the bathroom, you can also feel the strong Jiangnan style, and everything reflects exquisiteness.

In the hotel, there is a uniquely designed heated swimming pool where you can swim or take photos. Next to it is a spa place. You should know that the spa SPA at Banyan Tree is basically the most famous in the country and the one given the highest evaluation by people.

Living here, in addition to enjoying the environment here, you can't miss the afternoon tea at Banyan Tree. Order a cup of black tea, add some snacks and desserts, eat and drink, read and listen to music, and only then can you enjoy your vacation. Enjoy.

You don't need good wine, just good food. You can slowly spend your time at Banyan Tree like this. One fruit, one dessert, one freedom, and one joy. Good food can always enlighten people's hearts., make you feel relaxed and happy.


The greenhouse is a Hangzhou cuisine that you have to experience

When I was on vacation in Xixi Paradise, I happened to see this greenhouse and had eaten it once before, so I decisively chose this one. The restaurant is near the hotel and the location is very good.

There is a river next to it, and it is also planted with some flowers and plants. It still looks very petty and the environment is quite quiet. There is a kind of exquisite and romantic unique to Hangzhou. Because we have more people and it is a crisp autumn day, sitting outside, tasting delicious food while basking in the sun, it is comfortable and comfortable.

One point I have to mention is that all the dishes in the Huafang Restaurant do not contain MSG. They all rely on the use of ham soup to freshen up the food, so they are really very healthy.

I would like to recommend some of my favorite dishes, which are also the most popular dishes in the greenhouse:

Double bacon sausage: One bowl is sausage and the other bowl is bacon. The taste of the two is not exactly the same, but both are delicious. The sausage is a bit sweet and has a Cantonese flavor. The bacon is similar to ordinary bacon, but the taste is fresher.

Wrapped in pancakes with two ends of black birds: A very creative dish and a private dish unique to the greenhouse. It cannot be eaten anywhere else. The whole method is exactly the same as Beijing roast duck, but it is wrapped in meat, not ducks. It makes it oily but not greasy.

Lake crab stinky tofu: It is also a relatively unique dish. It combines lake crab and stinky tofu, which is also very rare. Now is the season to eat crabs, especially female crabs. They are very fat and taste great.

Roasted bullfrog in green pepper sauce: Cut the bullfrog into small pieces, and then use green pepper to braise it. It is very delicious. You can feel the separation of the flesh and bones in the mouth. It is also very convenient to eat. It has a bit of pepper and tingle taste. It is more appetizing and goes well with the rice.

Of course, the delicious food is far more than just these, including large intestine pot, Jiangnan ham and wine stuffed shrimp, nostalgic crucian carp, fragrant horse ham and old duck pot, etc. I think the most amazing thing about their store is that it is clearly something you have seen and eaten before. It is a familiar dish, but the taste is always beyond your expectations and worth tasting.

Xixi Sheraton

In addition to Banyan Tree, Sheraton is also very good. As a hotel that has been in operation for ten years, the decoration is still fashionable and beautiful, and the hotel has a good environment and high comfort.

In contrast, Sheraton rooms are not as expensive as Banyan Tree, and have a different style. They are not so traditional and classical. The room area is also relatively large. The yellow lights look very warm and feel like home.

Open the window and you can see out the window. It is said that every room here has a balcony. For holidaymakers, the balcony is still very important. After all, apart from eating and sleeping time, the balcony is the best place to rest.

There are also many decorations in the hotel lobby and public areas, which look simple and fashionable. The large chandeliers are very stylish and the photo effect is excellent, so every time you enter and exit the hotel, you can see someone taking photos here.

If you are here on vacation and don't want to go out to play, you can also have a spa in the hotel. The environment is ok and the overall situation is relatively quiet. The key is that the price is not expensive, about 600-800. When you arrive here, you can completely relax and enjoy life.

The hotel also has a wonderful French restaurant on the first floor of the hotel. It is inspired by the red dress dancer and creates a very romantic feeling. It is open every night and is very good.

Comments on Xixuan

Xixuan is also a very good hotel in Xixi Paradise. In contrast, it does not have the luxury of Sheraton or the ancient charm of Banyan Tree, but it is still very cost-effective. Its design is simple and the comfort of living is quite high.

There is a book bar on the first floor of the hotel, which is a place to read. There are sofas and seats on both sides of the stairs. There are also some lazy sofas on the second floor. It is also very good to stay here to read and relax.

The hotel's rooms are relatively simple, but they are relatively large. What's more unique is that the rooms on the third floor of the hotel use natural light, so the rooms look much brighter and there is no need to turn on the lights during the day.

The room still looks very cozy, with sofas and places to work. However, when you come here, most people still focus on vacations and just enjoy life quietly.


Xixi Wetland Park

In addition to Xixi Paradise, it is also worth visiting next to Xixi Wetland Park. As a national 5a-level scenic spot, it is China's first national-level wetland park integrating urban wetlands, agricultural wetlands, and cultural wetlands.

The scenic area has vertical and horizontal rivers, many ponds and swamps, a quiet and elegant environment, and a profound cultural heritage. It is suitable for tourism and vacations all year round.

Entering November, the reed flowers in Xixi Wetland began to turn white again. From a distance, they were very beautiful.

The reed flowers in Xixi are roughly divided into three varieties: reed, reed bamboo and reed. Most of them are concentrated around Qiuxue Temple. When the autumn wind rises, the reed bushes here are like snowflakes filling the beach. As the water waves spread, the top and bottom color are the same. It can be said that the house is on the reed flowers, and the boat enters the reed flowers.

The 15th Xixi Reed Listening Festival starts from now on and will last until New Year's Day in 2020. In addition to viewing reed flowers, there are many wonderful activities, each of which is still very exciting. This is also the most lively time in the Xixi Wetland during the year.

Qiuxue Temple is located in the center of the Xixi Wetland. It is surrounded by water on all sides. It was once accessible only by rowing a small boat. In order to allow citizens and tourists to enjoy the beautiful scenery of "Autumn Reed Flying Snow" up close, the Xixi Wetland opened a "special line for appreciating the reed", especially during this year's Deer Listening Festival. Take a battery boat from Zhoujia Village, and the boat leaves every 30 minutes. You can go directly to Qiuxue Nunnery to enjoy the autumn listening reed. Taking the reed appreciation special line, the scenery will double and the ticket price will remain unchanged.

In late autumn, the Xixi Wetland is full of forests and picturesque scenery. Taking the "Range Rover in the Air" high-altitude helium balloon, you can have a 360-degree view of the wetland from an altitude of more than 100 meters. In addition to "check-in in" Xixi, the weather is getting colder. It is also a good choice to enjoy reeds on the rowing boat in Xixi and eat a steaming "shaking pot"!

There are also classic "Xixi Evening Tour","Fisherman's Tour", as well as "Xixi Dragon Boat Experience Tour", kayaking and other water sports, allowing you to realize a comprehensive "water, land, air and air" journey to Xixi.

So this is also Jiangnan where you can feel literature and art. If you are a girl who likes to take photos, you must not miss every moment you walk through here wearing Hanfu. A casual photo will be the most unforgettable moment in autumn.
