West Lake Night Cruise

Share to:  

West Lake at night shows different charm from the daytime: colorful neon lights at the banks, shimmering ripples of West Lake and the reflections of nearby pagodas in the lake etc. In a cool night, tasting a cup of Longjing Green Tea as touring around West Lake by boat, is such a pleasure. The annual West Lake Night Cruise is available from 18:30 to 22:00 from April 29 to October 31.

There are different types of boats you can choose from: rowing boats, tourist boats, self-drive boats, self-rowing boats … In addition, there are also a dragon boat — “Quanrao (??)” and two coffee boats — "The Night of Beishan Hill (????)”.
