Descrizione
Explore Hangzhou on a private day tour. Visit West Lake, Leifeng Pagoda, Lingyin Temple, and Longwu Tea Village. Enjoy a stroll through Hefang Street and savor local dishes.
Begin your journey at the famous West Lake, celebrated in poems and paintings for centuries. Walk along Su Causeway or Bai Causeway, enjoy iconic sights like Broken Bridge and Three Pools Mirroring the Moon, and take picture-perfect shots with guidance from your driver-guide.
Next, visit Leifeng Pagoda on the south bank of the lake. From the top, enjoy panoramic views of West Lake, while inside you’ll discover artifacts and stories that bring the “Legend of White Snake” to life.
Step into one of China’s oldest and most important Buddhist temples, Lingyin Temple. Stroll past ancient grotto carvings at Feilai Peak and soak in the tranquil atmosphere of this thousand-year-old site.
At midday, explore Hefang Street, a lively historic area lined with Ming and Qing dynasty architecture. Take your time to enjoy lunch(on your own expense)—local specialties include West Lake Vinegar Fish, Dongpo Pork, Beggar’s Chicken, and Longjing Shrimp. You’ll also find souvenirs, snacks, and handicrafts.
In the afternoon, head to Longwu Tea Village, one of the most famous production areas for West Lake Longjing Tea. Walk among lush tea plantations, learn about traditional tea-making, and immerse yourself in the tea culture of Hangzhou. Tasting sessions are available at your own cost.
At the end of the tour, your driver will drop you off at your hotel in Hangzhou or the train station. If you are departing from Shanghai, optional round-trip train tickets can be arranged for convenience.
