Hangzhou is 'paradise on earth' by old Chinese saying — West Lake's willow banks, pagodas and causeways framed by tea hills where Longjing tea is picked by hand. One hour by rail from Shanghai, it mixes lakeside strolls, temple incense and tea-village lanes into an easy weekend.
Top sights
- West Lake loop — Walk or bike the 15-km shoreline between Broken Bridge and Su Causeway — early morning belongs to locals doing taichi.
- Lingyin Temple — One of China's largest Buddhist complexes below a cliff of ancient carved buddhas; incense haze and forest paths.
- Longjing tea village — Walk the terraced pickers' lanes, taste first-flush greens in a farmer's yard, buy direct from the source.
- Hefang Street — Qing-style snack street near the lake — try longxuceng (flaky pastry) and sugar-frosted dates.
- Xixi wetlands — Boat through reed-lined channels in the city's quiet water park — an afternoon off the crowds.

Good to know
- Weekend lake paths jam by 10am — do the marquee walks on a weekday morning if possible.
- Buy Longjing in the village, not the airport: look for pre-Qingming picking dates on the bag.
- Orioles Singing in the Willows and other scenic name-plaques make a nice walking treasure hunt with kids.
