Enter Donghu Lake, the filming location of Journey to the West

🌈Shaoxing East Lake|Check in at the filming location of the Kingdom of Women in the 1986 version of "Journey to the West"|||🚣‍♀️🚣‍♀️🚣‍♀️ This time when I came to Shaoxing, I arranged a visit to East Lake. It is a 15-minute drive from Lu Xun's hometown. · 🏷️Donghu Lake is one of the three famous lakes in Zhejiang Province and is also the filming location for the Kingdom of Women in the 1986 version of Journey to the West. Although East Lake is small in area, its scenery is very pleasant. There are steep cliffs, caves in the lake, pavilions, green mountains and clear waters, and a new scene at every step. Become a famous garden! · 🏷️It only takes 2 hours to visit Donghu Lake. You can choose to take a Wupeng boat or walk. I took a Wupeng boat in and then walked out. The one-way walk takes about 20 minutes. · 📌It is recommended to go in the morning and go against the light in the afternoon! ! ! 📚Practical information of scenic spots ⛰️Full name of the scenic spot: East Lake 🌟Scenic spot level: 4A 📍Detailed address: Yundong Road, Donghu Town, Yuecheng District, Shaoxing City 🚗Transportation strategy: Take a taxi or bus No. 1, 7, or 57 to [Donghu Scenic Area Station], and walk 800 meters to reach the scenic area 🕙Opening hours: 8:00-17:00 🌄【Tour route】 1⃣️ Walk in (30min) and return by boat (15min) 2⃣️Round trip by boat (30 minutes) 3⃣️Walking the whole way (1h+) The walking distance is far and you can't take pictures of the nearby stone walls. There are many people queuing at the entrance pier, so it is recommended to choose a route ❶ to save time and effort 🚣As you follow the boatman across the winding lake, the cool air hits you in the face, and you are surrounded by thousand-foot cliffs on all sides. The sound is transmitted through the empty valley, and the artistic conception of sitting in a well and observing the sky emerges leisurely! 📷【Photography Tips】 ✔️OOTD: White + Chinese style outfit is recommended ✔️Point ❶The lotus pond at the entrance is really beautiful after the rain ✔️Location ❷ A small path near the cliff cave 🌿 It is in the shade and not too sunny ✔️Point ❸ The distance between the two people on the boat is very close, 📱 Use 0.5 wide angle to see the whole picture🌷 PS: The scenery is the same on the way back and forth, so you can take more photos on the way back; if there are not many people, you can ask the driver to stop by the stone wall for a while. Look at the flat mountains, rhythmic waters, and strange caves of Shaoxing. Every scene across East Lake is like transporting you back from ancient times to the present.
