Step-by-step booking guide
- 1
Pick your date and buy the park ticket
On Trip.com, open the Xixi National Wetland Park page, choose the admission ticket for your date and enter your name and passport number exactly as printed. The voucher is emailed to you.
- 2
Decide on a boat
Add the electric boat (CNY 60) or plan to hire a hand-rowed boat at the pier — boats are not included in the park ticket and are the main way to see the waterways.
- 3
Go to a main entrance
The Zhoujiacun main entrance is at 518 Tianmushan Road; Longshezui is the other main entrance. Hangzhou Metro has Xixi Wetland stations nearby.
- 4
Enter with your passport
Show your passport (and the voucher QR if asked) at the gate or the visitor-centre counter. No ticket yet? Buy one at the window with your passport.
- 5
Watch the clock
Last ticket sales are 17:30 in summer and 16:30 in winter; the last electric boat departs earlier than closing time.
Key pitfalls
- The CNY 80 ticket covers the enclosed scenic zone only. The electric boat (CNY 60) and hand-rowed boats are paid separately — and they are the best way to see the wetland.
- Each ticket is valid for one entry on the chosen date; each gate admits you once.
- Ticket sales stop an hour before closing and entry 30 minutes before, so arrive by mid-afternoon in winter.
- Some causeways and the China Wetland Museum area can be walked for free — check the park map at the gate before paying.
