First visit Ling Yin Temple - one of the most famous Buddhist Temples in China. It was constructed in 326 at the foot of Lingyin Mountain by an Indian monk named Huili with a history of more than 1,600 years. Proceed to visit Huagang Park - a beautiful Peninsula park extruding from the West Lake.
After lunch, then comes the highlight of Hangzhou tour - boating on the West Lake. It is said that there are totally 36 "West Lakes" in China, the West Lake in Hangzhou is the most beautiful of 36 west lakes of the same name. Then continue to visit the Longjing Tea Village and do free shopping at the tea plantation. Longjing actually means, "Dragon Well", a place suitable for the planting of the famous green tea. Longjing Tea is one of China's best teas and is one reason for Hangzhou's international fame.
