Hangzhou
city, located at 180 km / 3 hours train from Shanghai
is one of the important tourism cities in China,
famous for its historical and cultural heritages.
Capital of Zhejiang province, it is also one key
city in the Yangzi Delta area.
Hangzhou has been the capitals of the Wu and
Yue kingdoms of Five Dynasties during the 10th
Century, and capital of Southern Song Dynasty
during the 12-13th Century. The city has a history
of more than 2200 years since it was established
as a county by the First Emperor Qing.
You
will see some of the spots I prefer around the
Xi Hu Lake (West Lake) bordering Hangzhou.
