"Leave West Lake to the guests, let's go to Xiang Lake!"
More than ten years ago, I read an article written by a few literary youths from Hangzhou. It was so bold and free-spirited!
Where is Xianghu? What does it look like? I went on a field trip two days ago.
Xiang Lake, located in Xiaoshan, Hangzhou City, and West Lake are called Hangzhou's sister lakes. The transportation in Xianghu is very convenient. You can take Hangzhou Metro Line 1 to the terminal station, Xianghu Station.
