Boat Tour of West Lake and lunch at Lou Wai Lou Restaurant in Hangzhou

After our tour of the Ling Yin temple, we dined just minutes away at Lou Wai Lou, a restaurant in Hangzhou, right on West Lake (the lake that makes Hangzhou a famous tourist retreat). Lou Wai Lou is world famous and renowned for its delicacies. I have posted a photo of the lavish room where we ate as a group, and a photo and video clip of the view of West Lake we had while dining.





After lunch, we crossed the street and boarded a traditional Chinese boat for a tour of West Lake. I have posted a couple of photos of the breathtaking views of West Lake and the gardens and pagodas of Hangzhou that we had from the boat.
