Hangzhou is my hometown. I had hiked every hill tops around the West Lake long before the city put flat stone plates on these hills (or mountains). The West Lake is bigger and prettier than before thanks to my hometown people and the city government's effort. I love the West Lake, reeeeeally!
All but the first one were taken before 7:30am. The West Lake is beautiful but the summer weather in Hangzhou is not so pleasant if not gruesome. So I had to leave the West Lake before strong sunshine and high temperature caught me.
