[2025 Hangzhou Attraction] Travel Guide for China Academy of Art (Updated Jun)

Once in Hangzhou, my advice to you is to visit China Academy of Art which has its own gallery. A modern urban campus is a great place to take pictures for your Instagram, but the gallery is really what you should be looking for. The best time to visit is in May/June when students are about to graduate and the gallery exhibits their graduation projects. #wintergetaway

Bamuqiu, Qianyuan Village, Sandu Town, Jiande Hidden atop a 700-meter-high pine-covered mountain, this is a secluded paradise to escape the hustle and bustle. Navigate to "Jiande Yunman Songjian Hot Spring Boutique Homestay" to arrive. A 2-hour drive from Hangzhou through the 42-curve "Little Tibet Route" of western Zhejiang, where misty clouds make you feel as if you’ve entered the ink-wash landscape of *A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains*. Meticulously crafted over three years by the China Academy of Art, this retreat perfectly blends century-old rammed earth architecture with wild luxury. The weathered rammed earth walls whisper ancestral tales, while black steel frames and floor-to-ceiling windows outline modern textures. The treehouse restaurant hovers among the pines, and the infinity pool mirrors the sky and clouds. Every design follows the philosophy of a "realm of relaxation," balancing the ruggedness of the wilderness with the refined elegance of a five-star hotel. **Cloud Pool**: In summer, dive into the infinity pool and watch clouds shatter into starlight on the water. **Wild Adventures**: Pick strawberries/watermelons or dig for bamboo shoots with a bamboo basket, hike through pine forests and bamboo groves, take kids to catch fish in the streams, fish by the reservoir, or gather chestnuts in autumn. **Starry Sky Theater**: Enjoy open-air movies by the bonfire, sing KTV into the wild, or compete in mahjong battles. **Healing Moments**: Soak in private hot springs under the stars, savor premium Longjing tea, or greet the morning with yoga amidst cloud waterfalls. Here, the poetic scene of "bright moon shining through pines, clear stream flowing over stones" comes to life. Time slows to the sound of a falling pine needle. Jiande Yunman Songjian is not an escape from life but a utopia where you fall in love with living again. Come, let time dissolve into the whispering pines and let your soul dwell among the sea of clouds.

Recently, Hangzhou has become a beautiful landscape painting. The annual "Autumn Leaf Art Festival" has arrived as scheduled. This year's public art is themed "Tracing Back to the Source and Starting Anew." This unique romance belonging to Hangzhou originated in 2006. Teachers and students from the China Academy of Art reshaped fallen leaves into vibrant artworks, becoming a poetic landscape on Nanshan Road. Among the leaf sculptures, the most popular is the little elephant leaf slide! The first person to think of making an elephant's trunk into a slide is a genius! Perhaps as the social environment becomes colder, people yearn for warmth. The snowman full of autumn vibes inspires a sense of exploration. The most interesting is the little man with a pointed hat. It embraces the faint light, guarding the secrets of the season and the hope of rebirth. When someone approaches, it responds with soft light and an embracing gesture.

I miss Hangzhou the most. Hangzhou is my favorite city. I have visited in every season except summer, and this must be my ninth visit. In my opinion, the scenery in Hangzhou is not much different from some other tourist cities, but I love the warm local customs of Hangzhou. The staff at the airport, subway, and so on are all very polite and patient. Another thing is that when crossing the street, drivers truly give way to pedestrians, making it very safe to cross intersections! Must give a thumbs up👍🏻

The China Academy of Art is located in the Xihu District of Hangzhou. Its predecessor was the National Academy of Arts. The academy was founded in 1928 by Mr. Cai Yuanpei, then president of the university, and is the first comprehensive national higher art institution in China.

Hangzhou Humanities Tour|Nanshan Campus of China Academy of Art This trip to Hangzhou wants to see the line that has not been visited before, so I decided to do a cultural tour and ran several colleges and exhibition halls. The Nanshan Campus of the Academy of Fine Arts is in it. . The Nanshan Campus does not have a good look at the Xiangshan Campus, but its location is convenient, just beside the West Lake. Brush the ID card to enter, the campus can be completed in 15 minutes, but it is very artistic. On the right side of the school gate , there is the Art Museum of the China Academy of Art, which regularly displays different works of art. Next to the campus are the small attractions such as the former residence of Pan Tianshou. Nanshan Road itself is one of the best places I think of Hangzhou. The exhibition that is currently being opened is a book and non-book painting exhibition. Its really interesting and interesting. It feels like opening the door to a new world, recognizing the diversity and flow of art. Many works can also trigger thinking in life. There are 4 floors in the exhibition hall. If you are serious about shopping, you may need an entire afternoon. Address: No. 218, Nanshan Road, Shangcheng District, Hangzhou

If there are too many cherry blossoms in Wuda, then take a look at the Hangzhou Chinese Academy of Fine Arts! Because of the blessing of the Academy of Fine Arts, the China Academy of Fine Arts in Zhuantang Town is also one of the most beautiful universities in Hangzhou.
