West Lake, Lingyin Temple and the Longjing tea hills — the best-known lake view south of the Yangtze.
Travel Hangzhou with local experts
Hangzhou is the capital of Zhejiang. West Lake is ringed by hills on three sides, with the Su Causeway, Broken Bridge and Leifeng Pagoda on its shores; the West Lake Cultural Landscape is a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Lingyin Temple with the Feilai Feng carvings and the tea fields of Longjing village are each worth half a day. Hangzhou works on its own for two or three days and is a fixed stop on East China routes.
