The hidden gem in the West Lake

Tucked away from West Lake's bustling shores lies Santai: Clouds and Waters — a sprawling, ticket‑free sanctuary of weeping willows, mirrored pavilions, and lotus‑fringed waterways. Just a 10‑minute stroll from Su Causeway, yet worlds apart in peace. Its name borrows from a poem praising noble character, honoring Ming‑era hero Yu Qian who rests here. No crowds, no queues — only reeds rustling and ripples lapping ancient stone bridges. 🌿🌸
