West Lake in Hangzhou: A Scenic Spot with Plenty of Photo Opportunities

The West Lake in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China, is a shallow lake with an area of 6.5 square kilometers and a circumference of 15 kilometers. Even at its deepest point, the water is only 2.8 meters deep. The water is clear and soothing. There are many tourist attractions around the lake, and there are well-maintained walking paths around the lake, making it great for a leisurely stroll. You can also explore the area by cycling or taking a sightseeing boat. The name 'West Lake' is said to have been given by the Song Dynasty poet Su Shi, who named it after Xi Shi, one of the Four Beauties of ancient China. Hangzhou's West Lake is home to the 'Ten Scenes of West Lake,' which are ten famous scenic spots. Additionally, there are many gourmet spots to enjoy.
