In the morning visit the beautiful West Lake by taking a boat tour to enjoy the breath-taking view. West Lake is symbol of Hangzhou as well as one of the most beautiful sights in China. The beauty of the West Lake lies in the lingering charm that survives the change of season in a year, of hours in a day, and of different weathers. After a boat ride, spend your leisure time walk along the lake bank and you will see many Chinese people doing exercise there. In the afternoon, you will visit the Lingyin Temple. The temple was built in the year of 326 AD when an Indian monk named Huili arrived at the FeilI Peak and found that the Peak was so outstanding and beautiful that he thought it was a retreat of supernatural beings. It is the most influential temple in South China, and is regarded as one of the 10 famous Buddhist temples in China. The last stop of today is Hefang Street. It has been the most prosperous street for almost 1000 years. Many shops and restaurants there are age-old famous brands. Enjoy a leisurely walk through this historical community. At end, stop at the Traditional Medicine Museum at Hu Qingyu Pharmaceutical Workshop. It is a museum for Chinese traditional medicine and also one of the historical and cultural relics under state protection. Travel back to your hotel.
