Beschrijving
Discover Hangzhou on a day trip from Shanghai or meet directly in Hangzhou. Enjoy a West Lake cruise, visit Lingyin Temple, and experience a tea tasting at Longjing Tea Village.
Begin your day by meeting your guide at Shanghai Hongqiao High-Speed Railway Station or Hangzhou East Railway Station, depending on your chosen option. If you start in Shanghai, board the high-speed train to Hangzhou and begin your sightseeing adventure upon arrival.
First, head to the world-famous West Lake, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Embark on a relaxing lake cruise across the lake’s glassy waters to admire breathtaking lakeside landscapes, ancient pagodas, arched stone bridges, green lotus ponds, and misty mountain backdrops. Listen as your guide shares fascinating local legends and historical stories behind every landmark around West Lake as you sail.
After exploring West Lake, enjoy a full set of classic Hangzhou-style lunch featuring regional signature dishes. The meal is fully included with no extra charges for all group participants.
Post-lunch, travel to the revered Lingyin Temple complex, a sacred ancient Buddhist temple built over 1,700 years ago. Wander through the Feilai Peak stone grottoes dotted with intricate stone Buddha carvings carved into natural rock formations, explore peaceful temple halls filled with incense, and listen to your guide explain the profound Buddhist culture and long local history of this revered scenic site. All combined entry tickets for Lingyin Temple and Feilai Peak are fully covered.
Your final stop of the day is quiet Longjing Tea Village, nestled amid rolling green tea plantations on the hills surrounding West Lake. Take part in a guided tea culture experience: walk through terraced tea gardens to learn about traditional Dragon Well tea cultivation and hand-processing techniques from local tea farmers, then sit down for a professional tea tasting session to sample freshly brewed premium Longjing green tea, learning how to appreciate the unique aroma and flavor of China’s top famous green tea.
