Tickets and booking
Admission is free. The data pack lists the ticket price as free, with a tip to confirm specifics directly with the scenic area (phone 0571-87065684). There is no ticket to buy and nothing in the pack about reservations, so no advance booking step applies — the reliable move is simply to arrive and walk in.
Hours are not a constraint either: the park operates around the clock, every day of the year (January 1 through December 31, Monday to Sunday).
Entrance and routes
The pack gives one address — No. 87 Nanshan Road, Qingbo Subdistrict, Shangcheng District, Hangzhou — and no specific gate details, so treat Nanshan Road as your wayfinding anchor. Two named bus stops serve the site: the Liulang Wenying stop and the Qingbomen (Qingbo Gate) stop.
As an open park within the West Lake scenic area with no listed closing time, access is on foot from the surrounding streets; the pack lists no turnstiles, separate entrances or ticket checks to plan around.
Photo spots
The pack catalogues no named viewpoints, so keep expectations simple: the subject is the park’s West Lake setting and the willow-and-oriole scenery its name describes — Liulang Wenying translates roughly as ‘orioles singing in the willows’.
One logistical advantage is total time flexibility: with 24-hour access, early-morning and evening sessions are an option if you want softer light, since the pack imposes no limits on when you can be inside.
Timing and crowds
Open 24 hours a day, all year round. The suggested visit length is 1-3 hours, which slots easily into a West Lake day.
The pack contains no crowd or visitation data, so no claims about quiet or busy periods can be made. The practical takeaway is flexibility: with free entry and no closing time, you can fit the visit wherever it suits your route rather than working around a gate schedule.
Walking and effort
This is a park stroll, not a hike. The pack lists no trails, distances or elevation figures, and the suggested duration is only 1-3 hours.
No special preparation is indicated by the data — wear what you would for any city walk and budget the 1-3 hours accordingly.
Getting there
Bus is the documented option. The Liulang Wenying stop is served by routes K4, 12, 102, 308, 504, K315, Y9, Y1, Y2, J5 and 7. The Qingbomen stop is served by routes K4 and 38. Route K4 appears in both lists, making it the one route the pack shows serving both stops.
Once off the bus, the address — No. 87 Nanshan Road, Shangcheng District, Hangzhou — is your reference point. The pack lists no metro or ferry connections; for anything beyond these buses, confirm locally or call the site at 0571-87065684.
Cost breakdown
Admission: free. The pack’s listed ticket price is free, with a tip to confirm details with the scenic area (0571-87065684).
Transport is the only variable cost: the bus routes are documented but no fares are, so budget according to current Hangzhou bus rates.
No other charges — parking, surcharges or separately ticketed features — appear anywhere in the data.
