Strolling around West Lake

❤Recommended Reason: West Lake·Hangzhou has been associated with folk tales and mythological stories such as 'The Legend of the White Snake,' 'The Butterfly Lovers,' and 'Su Xiaoxiao' since ancient times. Scenes from 'The Legend of the White Snake' like 'Broken Bridge Rendezvous' and 'Lady White Imprisoned under Leifeng Pagoda' are connected to the Ten Scenes of West Lake. It is said that in heaven, a Jade Dragon and a Golden Phoenix found a piece of white jade on an immortal island by the Milky Way. They carved it for many years, and the jade turned into a dazzling pearl. Wherever the light of this pearl shone, the trees remained evergreen, and flowers bloomed in abundance. However, the pearl was later discovered by the Queen Mother of the West, who sent celestial soldiers to snatch it away. The Jade Dragon and Golden Phoenix went to reclaim the pearl, but the Queen Mother refused, leading to a struggle. When the Queen Mother loosened her grip, the pearl fell to the mortal world and became the sparkling West Lake, with the Jade Dragon and Golden Phoenix descending to become Mount Yuhuang (Jade Emperor Hill) and Phoenix Mountain respectively. 🌟Highlight Features: West Lake has over 100 park attractions, including the landscapes of 'Autumn Osmanthus,' 'Willows by the Six Bridges,' 'Nine-mile Pine Clouds,' 'Ten-mile Lotus Blossoms,' known as the 'Ten Scenes of West Lake,' 'New Ten Scenes of West Lake,' and 'Three Evaluations of the Ten Scenes of West Lake.' ✅Must Experience: The taste of Hangzhou cuisine is primarily salty with a slight sweetness.
