Hangzhou Tourism Committee
The cultural heritage of Hangzhou is considered by locals to be the jewel in the crown of this history-laden city. Tangible and intangible parts of China’s heritage entwine in a cultural tapestry embodied in West Lake’s Scenic Area – where temples, pagodas, poems, prose, paintings, music and calligraphy are inextricably woven into a kaleidoscope of cultural tradition and philosophical aesthetics.
