HANGZHOU::We went shopping before dinner. Things were very cheap and of good quality. The clothes were fashionable. Regrettably, Yiin and I ran out of cash (well, largely my fault for not exchanging enough cash for the tips to tour guides). We were advised no ATM machine in HangZhou accepted foreign cards, oh well... HangZhou has a strong Singaporean feel � lush green & tropical. We visited the ancient LinYin Temple, then board on a cruise at XiHu (West Lake). The graceful willow trees shown in pictures of XiHu might have been replaced as we saw very few of them. We then visited GuoZhuang, a beautiful garden previously private-owned, overlooking XiHu. |
