I am in HangZhou. This is a big city with lots of people, cars and bikes. Westlake is in the city. It’s quiet and beautiful. When boating there yesterday, I felt so amazed by the contrast of absoluate beauty of the lake and moutains at one side and big buildings, busy streets and people at another side. In the lake, it’s like another world. It’s like the ancient China we saw from the books or movies.
West lake was just elected by Chinese as the 5th the most beautiful lakes in China.
