The first stop of travelling Hangzhou

Image
Before I leave Hangzhou, I am going to travel around Hangzhou for all the valuable places and sites. Hangzhou is such a beautiful city that I do not really want to leave. But it is not up to me. My desired work location is in Beijing. Maybe Hangzhou is a city which is suitable for living and relaxing, but not for working. Today, Sisi, Niuniu and I went to the silk museum and china museum.

Enjoy some photos.

Every year before and after the spring festival, China's railways will carry about 140million people to various places. The majority will be migrant workers ( 民工 ) and students. Students seem luckier than the migrant workers because of their privileges. They can book a ticket 12 days( Hangzhou, other cities may be different ) in advance versus 11days for migrant workers. However, for those from provinces with a lot of labourers, such as Anhui , Sichuan , Jiangxi , Henan , Shaanxi , most in the westsouth and westnorth , getting a ticket can mean a lot more effort. According to the government , " No price increases during this year's spring festival ". In fact, it is a only word game. It is harder and more difficult to get a ticket.
