The scenic grandeur of China is elegantly captured in the mystical city of Hangzhou. Enveloped between the majestic Zhijiang River and the famous West Lake, Hangzhou's picturesque landscapes make it an ideal retreat for secluded tranquillity.
Tucked away in this renowned city, in the serene, romantic surroundings of the emerald West Lake is the Shangri-La Hangzhou. What better place to experience the reality of the popular Chinese saying. "In Heaven, there is paradise. On earth, there is Hangzhou."
A visit is not complete unless you experience boating on the lake. Step out of the hotel and you are immediately beckoned by the spellbinding sight of the radiant West Lake. Rent a boat and while away the hours as the gentle, alluring waters cradle you. Then, there are the hotel gardens that are a blend of walkways flanked by lush foliage, trees and flowering shrubs. Explore this enchanting scenery either by bicycle or on foot.
