This is Hangzhou, welcome to your arrival!

Açıklama:

Hangzhou, the capital of Zhejiang Province in eastern China, is a city that seamlessly blends history, natural beauty, and modern charm. Nestled on the shores of the iconic West Lake, it has been an inspiration for poets, artists, and travelers for centuries. The West Lake, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offers serene landscapes of willow‑lined banks, pagodas, and mist‑shrouded hills. Boating on its calm waters or strolling along its scenic paths allows visitors to soak in the tranquil atmosphere. During the Song Dynasty (960–1279), Hangzhou emerged as one of the most thriving and culturally vibrant cities in China, reaching unprecedented prominence, especially after the Southern Song Dynasty (1127–1279) established it as the imperial capital, renamed "Lin’an." As the Southern Song capital, Lin’an (Hangzhou) became the political, economic, and military center of the dynasty. Its strategic location at the southern end of the Grand Canal, linking it to northern regions, and its proximity to the Yangtze River Delta, fueled a boom in trade and commerce. Markets bustled with merchants from across China and even foreign lands, selling silk, porcelain, tea, and spices. The city’s population surged to over a million, making it one of the largest metropolises in the world at the time.
