<h2>【West Lake Scenic Area】With West Lake as the core, it has 5 national key cultural relics protection units, 35 provincial cultural relics protection units, 25 municipal cultural relics protection units, and 39 cultural relics protection sites and various special museums, among which the main ones are the Ten Scenic Spots of West Lake and the New Ten Scenic Spots of West Lake. West Lake was formerly known as Wulin Water, Qiantang Lake, Mingsheng Lake, Jinniu Lake, etc. It is surrounded by mountains on the north, west and south, and the urban area on the east. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides and a city on one side.</h2><h2><img src="https://ak-d.tripcdn.com/images/0104k1200099w7s0jC238_Z_1000_0.jpg" sourcewidth="1000" sourcehight="562"></h2><h2><br></h2><h2>【Lingyin Temple】was first built in the third year of Xianhe in the Eastern Jin Dynasty (328 AD), with a history of more than 1,600 years. It is the earliest ancient temple in Hangzhou. It is located in the mountains of West Lake in Hangzhou, with Beigao Peak on its back and Feilai Peak on its front. The two peaks are flat, surrounded by green forests, birds singing in the mountains, and clouds floating in the mist. The founder of the temple was Huili, a monk from Western India. At the beginning of Xianhe in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he traveled from the Central Plains to Zhejiang. When he arrived at the mountains of Wulin (now Hangzhou), he saw a peak and sighed, "This is a small ridge of Lingjiu Mountain in Central India. I don't know when it flew here? When the Buddha was alive, most of them were hidden by immortals." So he built a temple behind the peak and named it Lingyin.</h2><h2><img src="https://ak-d.tripcdn.com/images/0102r1200099znz705B89_Z_1000_0.jpg" sourcewidth="1000" sourcehight="666"></h2><h2><br></h2><h2>【Sunset over Leifeng Pagoda】is one of the ten scenic spots of West Lake. Its name was first seen in the poem "Zhongfeng (Leifeng)" by Lin Bu, a poet of the Northern Song Dynasty: "A path divides Zhongfeng, winding up into the clouds. The sunset is seen in the village in front, and the autumn waves are heard across the bank. The tall pines are ancient and green, and the sparse bamboos are faintly fragrant. I love the howling of Su Men, and miss the virtuous and unique." Later, Ma Yuan and others from the Southern Song Dynasty court painting academy painted ten landscape paintings of West Lake with their own signatures. Among them, Chen Qingbo painted a landscape painting of Leifeng Pagoda, inscribed "Sunset over Leifeng Pagoda", which was also known as "Sunset over Leifeng Pagoda". Whenever the setting sun shines in the west, the shadow of the pagoda is across the sky, and the pavilions are golden and green. This landscape is consistent with the name and reality of the inscription, and it has become one of the ten famous scenic spots of West Lake, "Sunset over Leifeng Pagoda", which has been passed down for thousands of years. Literati and poets of all dynasties have chanted "Sunset over Leifeng Pagoda", such as Wang Ying's poem in the Ming Dynasty: "The dusk is faintly entering the distant forest, and the chaotic mountains surround half of the lake. The pagoda will understand the tourists' wishes, and hang a touch of gold in the setting sun."</h2><h2><img src="https://ak-d.tripcdn.com/images/100a10000000pohju6025_Z_1000_0.jpg" sourcewidth="1000" sourcehight="664"></h2><h2><br></h2><h2>【Hangzhou Grand Canal Night Tour】Starting from Wulinmen Wharf, the canal with lights in the night is like a beautiful lady in disguise, which is amazing. On the long river of history, take an ancient canal boat to experience the unique charm of the City lights up close, and go north along the ancient canal known as "the jade belt of heaven, a picture scroll for thousands of years", passing West Lake Cultural Square, Zhaohui Bridge, Chaowang Bridge, Imperial Wharf, Fuyi Warehouse, Qianlong Boat, Dadou Road, Xiangji Temple, Xiaohezhi Street, Qingsha Park, Qiaoxizhi Street, and enjoy the new scenery of the ancient canal such as Wulin New Look, Jiacheng Chunhong, Jiangqiao Yixi, Sanhe Huanyue, and Gongchen Huaigu along the waterway, and deeply feel the millennium legacy of the Grand Canal. After that, return to Gongchen Bridge, the symbol of the southern end of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and known as "the first ancient bridge in Jiangnan", so that you can travel through ancient and modern times and understand two thousand years. The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is a great project created by the ancient working people of China. It is a precious material and spiritual wealth left to us by our ancestors, and it is an important living and flowing human heritage. The Grand Canal is a historical monument, a cultural movement, and a "business card" of Hangzhou.</h2><h2><img src="https://ak-d.tripcdn.com/images/100t1f000001gqbxeFE37_Z_1000_0.jpg" sourcewidth="1000" sourcehight="667"><img src="https://ak-d.tripcdn.com/images/01001120008jp5si2A4D4_Z_1000_0.jpg" sourcewidth="1000" sourcehight="667"></h2>
