Postcard Come to Life: The Timeless Charm of West Lake

#springitinerary No trip to Hangzhou is complete without experiencing the serene beauty of West Lake. To truly take in its charm, we recommend staying at least 2 nights—giving you time to explore its many scenic spots at a relaxed pace. Getting around is a breeze: hop on the local shuttle buses that loop around the lake or take a peaceful boat ride for a unique perspective from the water. Don’t miss the musical fountain show by the lake in the evening, held daily at 7:00 PM and 8:00 PM—a magical way to end your day. Travel tip: The sun can be quite strong, especially in warmer months. Be sure to bring along sunglasses and an umbrella to stay cool and comfortable as you explore.
