Xihu Resort Introduction

Xihu Resort emphasizes romantic European style and natural leisure. It boasts abundant natural resources, covering approximately 60 hectares with a large garden area. Inside the resort, you will find the Victoria Pavilion showcasing local specialty souvenirs, the Versailles Garden, Herb Café, an 18-hole mini-golf, a forest barbecue area, hiking trails, a celebrity performance square, a jungle ecology classroom, the Lingshan Cave Blessing Tunnel, a meadow park, the Lakeside Pavilion, and lakeside café. The management team's continuous dedication and effort have transformed Xihu Resort into a quality recreational area, honored by the Tourism Bureau of the Ministry of Transportation and Communications as a "First-Class Amusement Park" for eighteen consecutive years. Rare and valuable, Xihu Resort is conveniently located next to the San Yi interchange on National Highway No. 3, allowing you to embrace the refreshing and leisurely experience without having to travel far. Upon entering, you are greeted by beautiful forest scenery and the romantic Happiness Square with a European-style garden, elegant human sculptures, lively artificial fountains, and tens of thousands of vibrant flowers that change with the seasons, creating a romantic and leisurely atmosphere that makes you forget the disturbances and noise of the city. Beyond the carefully planned landscape, one of the most talked-about natural sceneries at Xihu Resort is the natural lake next to the park, which rivals West Lake in Hangzhou—Xihu. Covering an area of 10 hectares, Xihu Lake is surrounded by mountains, shimmering with waves, rich in ecology, and offering beautiful scenery. A stroll along the lake's edge, casually walking by the willow banks, feels like stepping into a landscape painting, allowing you to immerse yourself in peace and tranquility. If you're interested, don't just stand by the lakeside gazing at Xihu; consider taking a swan boat ride around the lake. If you're lucky, you might encounter friendly mallards swimming nearby, bringing you closer to the relaxed vibe and natural beauty. Known as the "Hometown of the Tung Blossom," Xihu Resort sees a flurry of visitors during the Tung Blossom season from April to May, where falling blossoms create a snowy spectacle. Spending the night at Xihu allows you to appreciate the beauty of the blooming Tung Blossoms; in the morning, beautiful petals cover the ground, sunlight dances through the treetops, and the entire forest looks as if it is blanketed in snow, presenting a rosy spring scene. Alternatively, you can climb to the Viewing Pavilion for a panoramic view of the blue mountains or visit the lakeside to take a boat ride on the lake and enjoy the scenic beauty of Xihu reflecting the snow. Various ways to enjoy the blossoms offer great experiences worth exploring. Top Ten Must-Visit Attractions at the Resort: 1.
