Q: What is the most convenient way to get from Hangzhou East Station to West Lake?
A: Take Metro Line 1 directly to Longxiangqiao Station, about 25 minutes in total. A 5-minute walk from the station leads to West Lake Lakeside, which is the most worry-free and traffic-free option.
Q: Where is the best place to stay with elderly people and children?
A: Prioritize chain hotels near Wulin Square or Hubin, which have convenient transportation and comprehensive amenities. Try to avoid mountain-based guesthouses, as travel and dining are not very convenient.
Q: What local specialties are there that Hangzhou must try?
A: Pian'er Chuan, scallion stuffed with cypress, West Lake lotus root powder, and Longjing shrimp are all classics. No need to obsess over trendy big shops; old shops in small alleys have more authentic flavors, and you can enjoy them for just a few dozen per person.
Q: Is dining at scenic spots expensive?
A: Dining in core scenic areas has a higher premium, so you can stock up on snacks in advance. For main meals, you can go to nearby residential areas for better value and more authentic flavor.
