[World Heritage Site, Lake Saiko] A scenic spot worth visiting again and again for its seasonal scenery

The West Lake in Hangzhou City has been recognized as a World Heritage Site for its beautiful natural scenery and history. It has long been famous for its "Ten Scenes of West Lake" that correspond to each season, making it a tourist destination worth visiting in each season of the year. Some buildings are also lit up at night, allowing you to enjoy different atmospheres during the day and night. The Su Embankment, one of the Ten Scenes of West Lake, "Su Embankment in Spring Dawn", is said to have been built by Su Dongpo during the Song Dynasty and is 2.8 km long. Mud is carried in with the river water from the west upstream, so a straight embankment was built in the lake to prevent it from filling up with mud, and its size is astonishing. The top of this embankment is a road that can be traveled on foot or by bicycle 24 hours a day. The West Lake is just over 10 km in circumference, and there is a well-maintained walkway, but if you can't fit in a full circle, we recommend renting a bicycle and going around the famous sights. #Hangzhou #West Lake #Ten Views of West Lake #Sudi #World Heritage Site #China #Alibaba #Let's go to China
