QianDao: Thousand Islands

Saturday 7 June 2008

Qiandao lake is in the Chun'an county of Zhejiang. Qiandao means "thousand islands", but there are actually 1078 islands. Some of the islands have themes and they consist of famous attractions. It includes the lock island, bird island, snake island, etc. The place is so beautiful, it was rainy, but I loved it!

Krystina and her new friend:

On our way, we met a sociable little girl. She is so noisy, spoiled and arrogant to her parents, she must be an unique child. Krystina liked her, I liked her too, but our other friends were pretty much annoyed.

We rode one of these boats with cool built-in restaurants and we ended up in the VIP sections which was weird, because we didn't even pay for anything, we just asked where we can sit and they brought us there haha...maybe because we looked laowai.

We visited a silk factory on our way back and bought a few stuff. Why silk? because Hangzhou silk is the best in the world along with longjing tea.

What silk is made from? THIS!
