Take a hand-punted rowing boat through the water maze — quieter and more private than the per-head electric boats. The park has two halves under one name: the main eastern zone off Tianmushan Road, and Hongyuan in the west, built around the Hong family story and ticketed on its own.

- A rather weathered stone lion near (but not too near) to the entrance inside the Xixi National Wetlands Reserve in Hangzhou, China. The body of water you saw in previous pictures is quite deep inside the bush you see behind the lion, and the approach road to the water is still some way off.
