Prince Bay Park (Taiziwan Park)

Prince_bay_park_hangzhou1.jpg
Prince Bay Park in Spring

Located at the southwest of the West Lake scenic area and against the Nanping Hill, the Prince Bay Park occupies 0.2 square kilometers. Legend has it that two princes of the Southern Song Dynasty (1127-1279) were interred in this park when it is still a shallow bay. Therefore, this park gets its name of Prince Bay Park.

Prince Bay Park is a traditional Chinese landscaped garden. It is one of the most beautiful gardens in the Hangzhou area and is still part of the West Lake Scenic Area. Aside from its natural beauty, the park also boasts of the timeless and highly elegant western style of landscaping. It thus showcases nature’s beauty but combines this with the artistic creativity of manmade structures.

Prince_bay_park_hangzhou.jpgThe Prince Bay Park is famous for its tulips and holds an annually tulips exhibition from late March to late April for a period of 20 days.Prince Bay Park attracts a lot of visitors yearly, but it is most beautiful during the spring, when the place is bursting with blossoming flowers and when the apple and cherry trees are in full bloom. Despite its sheer natural beauty and the relaxing sight of small rivers and far-off mountains, the park is not that far from the downtown area of Hangzhou. Thus, it is like a little natural paradise in the middle of the city that even busy folks can escape to for a bit of relaxation

The most beautiful scenery of the Prince Bay Park is on the top of the Jiu Yao Hill which is rightly lying in the park. When you stand on the top of this less than 200 meter-high hill, you can have a panorama view of the beautiful West Lake scenery.

Choose a sunny day to explore the park which is free of charge, you can not only see couples taking wedding photographs, but also the beautiful scenery of the world-famous Hangzhou West Lake.
