  • Hangzhou Su Causeway

    Hangzhou Su Causeway

    We visited Hangzhou on one of its hottest days on record,so activity was going to be hot. At least Sudi is 80% in the shade with numerous willows and other trees flanking the path. Not many people ride their bikes along here (At least when I went) and the yellow elongated golf carts are driven with care.From the map it seems very long. But worthwhile to walk across. Many local people walk there for exercise. Also very good view for the lake.It is actually a wide paved bridge across the West Lake. A good place for evening or morning stroll. Try not to go in the afternoon as it could get really hot. And try to go during the weekday as it could get quite congested with people on weekends.Translated by Sophia
