Hangzhou at a Glance
About Hangzhou
Hangzhou, the capital of Zhejiang province, is a must-visit destination for its serene West Lake scenery and the tranquil atmosphere that permeates the city. The famous Lingyin Temple, a masterpiece of Buddhist architecture, is a standout attraction that draws visitors from around the world. The city's local Longjing tea, with its delicate flavour and rich history, is a unique experience that tea enthusiasts and locals alike adore.
The best time to visit Hangzhou is during the spring and autumn seasons, when the weather is mild and the scenery around West Lake is particularly picturesque. For first-timers, we recommend purchasing a Hangzhou Tourism Card, which grants you access to public transportation and discounts at local attractions, making it easier to navigate and explore the city.
