West Lake -- West Lake is symbol of Hangzhou as well as one of the most beautiful sights in China. The beauty of the West Lake lies in the lingering charm that survives the change of season in a year, of hours in a day, and of different weathers.

Lingyin Temple -- The temple was built in the year of 326 AD when an Indian monk named Huili arrived at the FeilI Peak and found that the Peak was so outstanding and beautiful that he thought it was a retreat of supernatural beings.
