Your journey begins with a comfortable high-speed train ride from Shanghai to Hangzhou, offering a swift and scenic introduction to Zhejiang’s landscapes. Upon arrival at Hangzhou East Railway Station, you will be warmly welcomed by your personal guide holding a clearly visible “Your Way Holiday” sign. From this moment forward, your day is fully taken care of. You’ll be escorted by private car directly to your hotel or the first stop on your itinerary. Along the way, your guide will share helpful local insights, cultural tips, and personal stories, creating a smooth transition into Hangzhou’s rhythm. This introduction is not only welcoming but also begins your immersion into the deeper layers of everyday life in this region, setting the tone for a day that goes far beyond surface-level sightseeing.
The morning unfolds in Dream Town, often nicknamed “Robot Town,” a pioneering hub for artificial intelligence and smart technology nestled within the lush greenery of western Hangzhou. This modern innovation village is a fascinating blend of high-tech development and nature-conscious design, home to a range of intelligent robotic exhibits, immersive experiences, and startups shaping the future. Your guide will lead you through exhibition centers and open plazas where robots of various forms interact with guests, from humanoid service bots to mechanical arms performing real-time tasks. You’ll also have the chance to explore design labs or cafés themed around AI culture. Throughout your visit, your guide will offer insights into China’s innovation landscape, explain how local tech policy is shaping development, and help you interact meaningfully with installations that go beyond novelty. This is an ideal setting for travelers curious about the intersection of future living and Chinese creativity.
After a local-style lunch handpicked by your guide based on your preferences, you’ll head to POP Mart Store in central Hangzhou. More than just a retail space, this destination is a pop culture landmark that celebrates the collectible toy craze sweeping across Asia. The store design is immersive and dynamic, featuring life-sized art figures, seasonal installations, and interactive walls where guests can pose with their favorite characters. Inside, you’ll discover rows of blind-box toys, rare editions, and exclusive merchandise not easily found elsewhere. Each figure represents a unique personality and emotional world, drawing on themes of nostalgia, imagination, and youthful creativity. The space brings together fans of all ages, offering a glimpse into how a new generation expresses mood, identity, and aesthetic through collectible art. Whether you’re browsing, photographing, or treasure hunting, the experience captures a playful, artistic side of Hangzhou’s contemporary culture.
As the day comes to a close, your guide will escort you back to the railway station for your return to Shanghai. The journey back offers time to reflect on the contrasts you’ve experienced: futuristic innovation beside whimsical nostalgia, the structure of intelligent cities framed by the human touch of storytelling and design.
