Itinerary

You will meet your travel advisor and other friends at Exit C of Ding’an Subway Station. And then, we will walk to Hefang walking street.

As a descendant of Manchus Nationality in Hangzhou, the travel advisor was raised up in Hangzhou City. At the end of Qing Dynasty, his family settled here when his forefather was appointed to become a local government official. He is very familiar with the history, culture, architecture and customs of Qing Dynasty and Manchus Ethnic Group. This time, he will take us to Hefang Street and experience the street of Qing Dynasty.

Since Southern Song Dynasty (1127 AD-1279 AD), Hefang Street was the center of culture and trade. At the end of Qing Dynasty, this street has become the most prosperous street in South China when pharmaceutical industry and business industry initially emerged. In addition, this is the best place to experience the historical scenery of old downtown area of Hangzhou City. The travel advisor will take us to walk through some major street of this block, tell us the system of Chinese architecture in Qing Dynasty and experience the life of working staff in drugstore and beverage shop, dressing in the costume of Qing Dynasty.

He will take us to walk into different stores and experience the business culture established in the ancient times. Besides, we are able to enjoy the traditional techniques of making scissors in Zhang Xiaoquan Scissors Shop, witness the process of making traditional Chinese herbs and write to your friend in the local post office in a traditional manner. After the trip around the streets, we will go to the booth reserved in time-honored Taichi Tea House.
