#Qianwang Temple Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

The plum blossoms in Hangzhou have bloomed in 2024‖ Sharing a stunning spot for flower viewing~
Once again, the plum blossoms are in bloom, expected to reach the best viewing period around the Spring Festival, and the peak blooming period in mid-February. Here are a few treasured spots for plum blossom viewing that I recommend, ❤️Nothing compares to the beauty of the south, a branch of spring is my gift to you · 📍Small yet beautiful Qianwang Temple, Huiyin Gaoli Temple, Guozhuang, Zhanbi Building 📍Magnificent Xixi Wetland, Hongcun Plum Valley, Lingfeng Plum Exploration · ✅Qianwang Temple I would call it the poetic ceiling of plum viewing by the West Lake, following Qian Mu's 'When the flowers bloom on the path, you can return slowly,' watching the red walls and white plums, as if deep in the Forbidden City · ✅Xixi National Wetland Park Winding water in search of plums, ten miles of fragrance, it's elegant to explore the plums by rowing boat. Recommended spots include Zhoujiacun Plum Forest Road and Xixi Plum Villa · ✅Hongcun Plum Valley Hidden in the valley, a sea of plum blossoms, stunning and less known, aerial photography is amazing. It's suggested to drive there, and you can also visit the Jingshan Temple on the way · ✅Huiyin Gaoli Temple 99% of people will miss this place, a serene Song dynasty temple with yellow walls and black tiles, although there are only 4 red plum trees, they are no less impressive than others · ✅Lingfeng Plum Exploration Here, the plum blossoms are numerous and dense, top-rated every year, with over 1200 trees in full bloom, La Mei Garden, Long Yue Building, and Lingfeng entrance have many · ✅Guozhuang A private garden by the West Lake, the number of plum blossoms is not large, but the beauty lies in the combination with ancient architecture, picturesque · ✅Zhanbi Building Plum blossoms bloom by the ancient-style building, petals fall into the water, it's the springtime of the south where flowers drift and water flows · ✅Maojiabu Scenic Area Also a less known spot for plum viewing, the Wax Plum King in front of Du Jinsheng's former residence has a Chinese style, absolutely beautiful · 🙌Tips1 If you're short on time and can only choose one area for plum viewing, I recommend the West Lake plum viewing route, which is relatively close, 2 days and 1 night, the essence of plum viewing 🙌Tips2 If you want to enjoy a leisurely plum viewing, I suggest staying near West Lake, this time I chose one next to a subway station, just a 15-minute walk from West Lake, it's really perfect for a city vacation 😭! And there's coffee and afternoon tea in the space, when you're tired from viewing, just come back to rest, it's both convenient and chill ☕ 🙌Tips3 There will be many people viewing the plums, remember to set off early! .

Not only Qianwang Temple, but this plum blossom holy land is worth your possession!
🌟 Hangzhou, besides West Lake, the scenery of the four seasons is also amazing, with spring plum, summer lotus, and autumn maple leaves, which have been known as 'paradise on earth' since ancient times. In February, as the weather warms up, the plum blossoms bloom brilliantly, and here are a few good spots in Hangzhou to enjoy the plum blossoms! 1⃣️ Hangzhou Botanical Garden 🌟 The branches twist and turn, the flowers stand proud, and the fragrance is subtle. When I see such a plum grove, I can appreciate the beauty with a deep ancient charm like 'plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum' and 'pine, bamboo, and plum'. 🌸 Hangzhou Botanical Garden plum viewing spots: Lingfeng Plum Exploration, Pinmei Garden, Qixing Ancient Plum 📌 Hangzhou Botanical Garden (Qingzhiwu Gate) 🚇 Line 3 West Lake Sports Center Station, it's more convenient to cycle from the subway, no traffic jams 2⃣️ Xixi Wetland 🌟 Xixi Wetland is like the Peach Blossom Spring that the Wuling people entered by boat. Suddenly encountering a plum forest, stretching for hundreds of steps along the bank, with fresh and beautiful grass and scattered blossoms. The waterways crisscross here, and the plum forest grows naturally, covering a large area, and it is really beautiful. 🌸 Xixi Wetland plum viewing spots: Zhoujia Village Pier, Meizhu Villa, Qu Shui Plum Search, Xixi Plum Villa, Xiangxue House 📌 Xixi Wetland (Zhoujia Village Entrance) 🚇 Line 3 Xixi Wetland South 3⃣️ Xiang Lake 🌟 The open lake and the vast plum grove 🌸 Xiang Lake plum viewing spots: Cross-Lake Bridge, Maya Island, Chuyang Platform 🚇 Line 1 Xiang Lake 4⃣️ Huiyin Gaoli Temple 🌟 The temple is quiet and serene, with red plums shining, and the ancient architecture is a perfect match with the plum blossoms, looking just like a painting. 5⃣️ Jingci Temple 🌟 Jingci Temple also has winter plums and red plums. Walking up the small path, the distant temple buildings become the background for the plum blossoms, offering a great view. Here you can also take a photo with the Leifeng Pagoda, which is very worthwhile. 6⃣️ Guo's Villa 🌟 White walls, green tiles, and corridors match with a few plum trees. A scene at every step, a garden in every view. 7⃣️ Zhanbi Tower 🌟 'Sparse shadows slant across the shallow water, a faint fragrance floats in the moonlit dusk.' Zhanbi Teahouse is located in Quyuan Fenghe, and you can no longer see the appearance of the past years in the pictures. The plum trees here have already withered by half, and it may be the same this year. If it's on the way, you can take a look. 8⃣️ Maojiabu 🌟 In the former residence of Du Jinsheng in Maojiabu, there is a King of Plum Blossoms, which is great for taking photos with few people around. 9⃣️ Qianwang Temple 🌟 Qianwang Temple is not big, but it wins with the combination of red walls and plum blossoms, like a 'Little Forbidden City' in Hangzhou, with a full ancient charm atmosphere. Qianwang Temple is right by West Lake, so there may be more tourists. If you want to take good photos, you need to go early. 🌟 There are many places to enjoy plum blossoms in Hangzhou, including: Gushan Park, Yongfu Temple, Xiying Pavilion. Don't waste the spring days, don't waste the blooming period, hurry up and get going!

Seeking Spring at the Qian Wang Temple
The Qian Wang Temple was originally built during the Northern Song Dynasty (in the year 1077 AD) and was formerly known as Biao Zhong Guan, dedicated to the worship of three generations and five kings of the Qian family. The temple was initially called 'Biao Zhong Guan' in the early Song Dynasty, but it has been commonly referred to as the Qian Wang Temple since the Qing Dynasty. In 2003, while preserving the original relics, and in coordination with the West Lake water landscape, the Qian Wang Temple was rebuilt. It has become a garden attraction on the southern route of West Lake that integrates sightseeing, cultural display, and historical research, as well as an important base for the study of the culture of the Wu Yue region. The scenic name 'Qian Ci Biao Zhong' not only reflects the everlasting gratitude of the Hangzhou people for the merits of the Qian kings but also showcases the profound historical and cultural heritage of West Lake.

The Shrine of King Qian in Lin'an
Lin'an, a city nestled at the foot of the majestic Tianmu Mountains, has been a cradle of talent since ancient times. It is the birthplace of many influential historical figures, among whom King Qian Liu of the Wuyue Kingdom was the most impactful. He led expeditions across various regions of Jiangsu and Zhejiang with the might of a king, and chose his hometown Lin'an as the final resting place of his life. Lin'an is not just a geographical marker, but also a witness to history, bearing the glorious years and great achievements of King Qian. The Shrine of King Qian has become a historical hall commemorating King Qian, as well as a mausoleum scenic area that integrates history, culture, and tourism. It features attractions such as archways, Zhou Pond, Lingyan Pavilion, and Anguo Tower, and is one of the auxiliary buildings of King Qian's mausoleum. It has become an important place for people to pay homage to King Qian and learn about his deeds, also allowing more people to feel the spirit and demeanor of King Qian.

It's like stepping into a Hayao Miyazaki animation
The beauty of Hangzhou is beyond words. Walking from Jixian Pavilion and Yongjin Gate to Liulang Wenying, the azure sky merges with the water. The moonlight penetrates the clouds and shines on the lake, as if stepping into a large piece of clear sapphire. At the entrance of the Qianwang Temple, there are still clusters of lotus leaves from the end of summer in the pond. A few steps further is the Cuiguang Pavilion, which used to be the dock for the imperial boat tour, and countless literati have written poems here. This is my second visit to Hangzhou after a decade. Hangzhou was born around the lake, and the entire city is full of romance and aura because of the lake. It once belonged to Bai Juyi, Su Shi, Yue Fei, and also to Su Xiaoxiao, Zhu Yingtai, Bai Niangzi... and my lover also grew up here. I love this city because he exists. On the return journey, looking at the passing lights and shadows outside the window, I gave my heart to it.
