If you are in Hangzhou in the first quarter of 2023, enjoy free admission to many highly sought-after scenic areas! To accelerate tourism recovery, the Hangzhou CPC Municipal Committee and Hangzhou People's Government have decided to waive the ticket at the main gate in 17 locations, namely Yue Fei's Mausoleum, Yellow Dragon Cave, Feilai Peak (excluding Lingyin Temple), Guo's Villa, Three Pools Mirroring the Moon, King Qian's Memorial, Mulanshan Tea Garden, Chenghuang Pavilion, Yuhuang Hill, Wansong Academy, Six Harmonies Pagoda (excluding access into the Pagoda), Tiger Spring, Yunqi Bamboo Trail, Botanical Garden, Zoo, Children's Park, and Hu Xueyan's Former Residence.

To avoid crowds, however, visitors are required to make appointments. 

Find the WeChat mini program "West Lake and Xixi Wetland on the Fingertips," and then click "reservation for scenic spots;" or follow the WeChat accounts "Hangzhou West Lake and Xixi Wetland Scenic Area," "West Lake Tour," or the WeChat account of the scenic spot to plan your trip.

Choose a scenic spot and book your visit within the next three days, but remember not to book the same one again in a day. Don't forget to show your passport or the QR code for your appointment at the entrance.

Police, traffic officers, operators, and volunteers will do their best to make your trip memorable and hassle-free.
