Discover some of Hangzhou's most charming places on this private tour: explore the important Buddhist Lingyin Temple and enjoy a boat ride on West Lake.
Tour Details
At the indicated time, you'll be picked up from your hotel in Hangzhou and driven to the Lingyin Temple, one of the largest Buddhist temples in China. We'll spend an hour and a half exploring this important sanctuary, discovering the famous Feilai Feng rock carving and the impressive collection of religious sculptures housed in its different rooms.
Following our guided tour of Lingyin Temple, we'll have an hour to admire the spectacular natural landscapes surrounding it. And what better way to do so than by enjoying a cup of Dragon Well, a typical Chinese green tea.
At 12:30 pm, we'll stop at a local restaurant where you'll have the opportunity to get yourself a traditional Chinese lunch to eat. Then, after eating, we'll visit West Lake, one of Hangzhou's most popular tourist attractions. We'll relax and take in the views on a leisurely boat trip on the lake.
Our next stop will be at Red Carp Pond Garden, where we'll spend half an hour surrounded by the beautiful plants and listening to the birdsong that fills this natural paradise in the heart of the city.
You'll then be dropped back off at your hotel, where we'll arrive after 8 hours of activity.
