You will also have the opportunity to join in and learn a few movements with guidance, feeling the meditative flow of this graceful martial art in the peaceful surroundings. After the morning exercises, enjoy a cup of tea and a selection of local snacks at the teahouse inside the beautiful Chenghuang Pavilion.The Chenghuang Pavilion is far more than just a resting spot; it’s a place where history, scenery, and everyday life harmoniously blend. As you sip your fragrant tea inside the teahouse, your guide will begin to unfold the rich cultural layers of this landmark. You’ll hear stories about the pavilion’s origins, its connection to ancient beliefs and local traditions, and the importance it holds in the hearts of Hangzhou residents. The atmosphere here is peaceful yet vibrant, as morning sunlight filters through carved wooden eaves. Perched on Wushan Hill, the pavilion offers breathtaking panoramic views of West Lake’s shimmering waters and the traditional rooftops that stretch across the old town. It’s a perfect spot to pause and absorb the essence of the city, framed by the sounds of light chatter and birdsong in the background.
From the upper floors of the Chenghuang Pavilion, a breathtaking panoramic view of West Lake unfolds before your eyes. The lake shimmers like a mirror, reflecting willows, pagodas, and the distant Leifeng Pagoda standing quietly on the shore. On a clear day, the rolling hills beyond the water create a layered painting of green and blue, blending sky, mountains, and city into one harmonious scene. As your guide points out the famous landmarks scattered across the lake, you’ll gain a deeper appreciation for the poetic beauty that inspired generations of Chinese painters and poets. Standing here, with a gentle breeze and the soft murmur of the city below, it’s easy to understand why West Lake has long been considered the heart of Hangzhou’s charm.
After the tour, you will be comfortably driven back to your hotel in Hangzhou or dropped off at the train station.
