Mobile Toilets by the Qiantang River

Admin October 03, 2026

There are mobile toilets by the Qiantang River, mainly consisting of the following two types:

1. Mobile Landscape Public Toilet at the Intersection of Qianchao Road and Sanxin Road

This public toilet is located at the intersection of Qianchao Road and Sanxin Road on the Qiantang River embankment in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. It is the first mobile landscape public toilet in Hangzhou and officially opened on June 29, 2019. Its design integrates landscape functions with practical needs, adopting a modular structure that allows for overall relocation or position adjustment to adapt to environmental changes around the embankment. The appearance of the public toilet harmonizes with the surrounding landscape, and its internal facilities are well-equipped, including independent toilet stalls, barrier-free access, ventilation systems, etc., meeting the basic needs of tourists. As a public facility, it is managed by the municipal department and is open to the public free of charge.

2. Scenic Mobile Toilets (for Rent)

There are also rentable scenic mobile toilets by the Qiantang River, primarily serving temporary events or short-term needs. These toilets feature 'scenic viewing' and are usually equipped with transparent windows or open-view designs, allowing users to enjoy the river view while using the facilities. The rental price is 54 yuan per day, suitable for scenarios such as exhibitions, events, and construction sites. The lessee needs to negotiate installation location, water and electricity access, and other details with the supplier in advance and bear the costs of transportation, installation, and maintenance. Unlike fixed public toilets, these toilets are more mobile and can be quickly deployed or removed as needed.

Supplementary Note: Other Related Toilets

The 'Best Scenic View Mountain-Top Toilet' located on Siwuling in Yiqiao, Xiaoshan, Hangzhou, has attracted attention due to the view of the confluence of the Qiantang River, Puyang River, and Fuchun River through its floor-to-ceiling windows. However, this toilet is located on a mountaintop, at a certain distance from the 'by the Qiantang River' location, and it is not explicitly mentioned as a mobile structure. Therefore, it does not strictly qualify as a mobile toilet by the Qiantang River.

Summary: The mobile toilets by the Qiantang River include fixed municipal mobile landscape public toilets and rentable temporary scenic mobile toilets. The former is open to the public free of charge, while the latter is charged on a daily basis. Tourists can choose to use them according to their actual needs and should pay attention to distinguishing the functions and locations of different types of toilets.
