HANGZHOU (Zhejiang Province) -- area code (86-571)



- Jundu Club
8597-7186, 135-8882-5188, map and directions. Near the intersection of Baochu Lu and Bei Shan Lu at the northern most shore of West Lake. With your back to West Lake, walk northwest up Baochu Lu for about fifty meters. To your right there is a narrow road leading off through the park. Walk along this road for about 100 metres. On your right is a building/bar/tea-house. The gay bar is in the basement and is the 2nd bar from the corner (the first one is straight). Disco dancing starting about 10pm, with karaoke going on before that. Crowd is a mix of locals and foreigners.


- Over Seas Chinese Hotel
- There is a park that is frequented by gays, day and night. Go to the intersection of Mugangshan Lu and WenYi Lu. Walk along the right side of Mugangshan Lu - away from the city - for 400m. You'll come to a pedestrian crossing on your left and a park on your right. Enter the park. During the day you'll see families and old people enjoying the outdoors. On the benches you'll see straight couples making out, and in the gardens you might see guys. Cruising goes on 24/7, but after 9pm, the lights are turned off and the action begins. You'll still see the occasional straight couple on the benches, but you'll see the guys being more adventurous, out in the open. The main gate is locked at about 10pm, but the northern gate is open at least until midnight.

- He Cha Guan (tea house)
77 Huai Min Rd (at the intersection of So Yan An South Rd), 8782-9711, 8782-9733. A modern tea house with traditional decor and booth seating with curtains that may be drawn for extra privacy. Try a variety of teas while you sample a strange selection of treats from a "tea buffet". A very cozy and relaxing place.

- Han Lin Cun
2 Baochu Lu, 8521-1745. Off Baochu Lu, between West Lake and Fen Qi Lu in the Hwa Yang Lian Hua area. Walking distance from the Hyatt and Shangri-La and plenty other hotels by the lake. Standing at the intersection of Baochu Lu and Bei Shan Lu, at the northern most shore of West Lake, walk northwest up Baochu Lu. After about 50m there will be a narrow road on your right leading off through the park. Ignore this and keep walking along Baochu Lu for another 80m or so, until you come to a gate. Turn right and walk about 50m past the discos on both your right and left, and under the sign that reads California Bar. At No. 2 Bao Chu Lu (a complex of straight disco clubs) there is a big sign in Chinese for Han Lin Cunwith an arrow pointing to the entrance downstairs, opposite the G Plus club. Walk down the steps and through the glass doors. It has dozens of daybeds put together in a square configuration and also a dark room. There are about five showers in the wet area and a blacklight sauna. Zhejiangnese massuers (not pushy) are also available. Open 24/7.
