Enjoy Hangzhou Tours


If you happen to be in China or Shanghai in particular, you might want to seriously consider taking Hangzhou tours fromShanghai.   Hangzhou is a great political, economic and cultural center full of natural beauty and abundant cultural heritages. It is one of China’s most important tourist attraction sites. There are currently about one hundred and twenty four trains (most of which are high speed) operating between Hangzhou and Shanghai each day. They operate mainly during the day. At  South Railway Station, the high travel trains come from Hongqiao Railway Station whereas some arrive from South Railway Station of Shangai. The tours are therefore hustle-free, cheap and quite convenient with the train services.

The “heaven on earth” as it is commonly known is found near the lower reaches of the Qiantang River in southeast China, in the Yangtze Delta. It is about one hundred and eighty kilometers from Shanghai. The city has a subtropical monsoon climate and is neither too hot nor too cold throughout the year and can therefore be visited any time of the year. Therefore you can make Hangzhou tours from Shanghai round the year.

This will benefit with an experience of the West Lake for its scenic beauty and nearby tourist attractions. These include historical and cultural sites such as the Tomb of General Yue Fei, the Ling Yin Temple, and the Six Harmonies Pagoda among others. There are also a range of national museums to sample including the National Tea Museum among others. There are also authentic local foods to taste such as the West Lake Fish with Sweet Sour Source, Beggar's Chicken, Fried Shrimps and Dongpo Pork. Please also doo make time for a shopping experience on the historic Qing He Fang Street in Hangzhou. Whichever way, you have yourself to blame if you don’t enjoy your Hangzhou tours from Shanghai.  

Best Attractions
Hailed for many centuries" paradise on earth", the Hangzhou city gives visitors a few sights of superlative natural beauty and rich historical and cultural significance. In & around Hangzhou, the travelers will find West Lake – the symbol of this city for several years; the historical heritage sites like Lingyin Temple, largest & resplendent Buddhism temple of this area, Tomb of the General Yuefei & other significant architecture landmarks as 6 Harmonies Pagoda & Leifeng Pagoda. Lots of other sights of the city are well worth the trip.

Shopping

No matter whether you have come to Hangzhou for hiking, scenic views, or to relax, then there is not any way you would like to leave this city without even visiting some beautiful markets that the town needs to offer. Hangzhou Silk Town, situated at Tiyuchang Road, is all made up many hundred meters of the booths & vendors who are selling the silk. From pajamas to ties, robes to handcrafts, there’s something for everybody in Silk Town. However, for something very unique, Night Market, near Wushan, is the market, which springs to life each evening. Within the rows of the artisans & vendor booths, you will find Mao memorabilia, fans, jewelry, handicrafts and pipes.
