Hangzhou
Hangzhou pairs the calm beauty of West Lake with temple courtyards, tea-covered hills and the easy rhythm of a refined southern city.
Why visit Hangzhou?
Hangzhou is one of China’s most graceful city escapes, shaped by the willow-lined shores of West Lake and the green terraces of Longjing tea country. Explore Lingyin Temple and its ancient grottoes, walk historic lanes filled with local flavors, and slow down among gardens, wetlands and lakeside paths. Close to Shanghai yet distinct in character, Hangzhou adds nature, culture and a gentler pace to an eastern China journey.
