This place was so surreal and peaceful! I look forward to going back and sharing my experience with you guys! If you have any questions feel free to leave them in the comments.

Hangzhou Vlog: Green Tea Fields!
instagram.com/timandglo
June 22-23, 2014
We started day two in Hangzhou with another delicious meal at Green Tea Restaurant, on LongJing Road, which leads to the city's famous green tea fields. Green Tea has other locations, but the LongJing restaurant is the flagship location. The restaurant sits on a beautiful pond and is nestled among green tea fields. It's worth the 20 or so minute cab ride from West Lake.
After lunch we took a cab to LongJing Village, which is where some of China's most famous green tea comes from! We wandered through the village - which is filled with beautiful multi-story homes (an indication of the tea farmers' success!) - before walking along the path endearingly named 9 Creeks in Misty Forest. :) It took us about an hour to get across all nine creeks. All in all, it was a lovely, relaxing walk!
For our last night in Hangzhou, we moved to the Intercontinental Hotel in the JiangGan District, which has lots of high rises and new construction.
We hope to return to Hangzhou again soon! There's still so much to see! Hopefully it won't be raining the next time we're there. :)
Thank you for watching!
God bless!!

See map:
Longjing, which literally translates as dragon well, is said to have named after a well that contains relatively dense water, and after rain the lighter rainwater floating on its surface sometimes exhibits a sinuous and twisting boundary with the well water, which is supposed to resemble the movement of a Chinese dragon.

HANGZHOU - Tea House & West Lake
“A good snapshot keeps a moment from running away.” ― E. Welty
With our China tour slowly coming to an end, we prepared ourselves to relish the experiences that today’s adventures in Hangzhou offered. Our morning started with our bus weaving through the picturesque terraced tea-plantations of the Meijiawu Tea Culture Village. Prior to us arriving at the charming Tea House, our knowledgeable tour guide (a green tea connoisseur himself) described the process the farmers use to produce the fragrant West Lake Dragon Well Tea. At the Tea House a qualified tea expert explained and demonstrated the processes for picking, drying and grading the leaves. She also amazed everyone with a ‘magical’ chemical demonstration that emphasized the health benefits of green leaf tea. And, of course we all got the opportunity to sample and purchase some high-grade tea leaves and other goodies. Michael’s sweet tooth didn’t allow him to leave the Tea House without buying a couple of packets of delicious green tea lollies!
Back on the bus for a short drive to the most popular place in Hangzhou - West Lake. This beautiful fresh water lake located in the middle of the city is the subject of many poems and paintings. Utterly mesmerising with the pagoda-topped hills rising over willow-lined waters and stunning temples, pavilions, gardens and bridges surrounding it. There were many kinds of boats, including large painted boats and small rowing boats that drifted along the lake. An aura of romance was added to our boat trip as Joe told us the legendary story originating in West Lake …. isn’t love grand!
After our lake cruise we had some time to ourselves for arranging lunch and strolling around the nearby shops. We then wandered back to the bus and admired the beautiful tree-lined streets and stunning parks with manicured garden beds. Then it was all aboard for our scenic 2hr bus ride to Shanghai.
The scenery was remarkable! We goggled at the vast rice fields and sprawling farmlands interwoven with impressive farm houses. The dense high-rise apartment buildings extended towards the horizon (as far as the eye could see) and all of this was intertwined with an abundance of cranes signalling further development and construction.
As we neared Shanghai, we took a moment to reflect on our day’s adventures (so far) and agreed that the picturesque scenery was nothing short of SPECTACULAR!
Time to hit the road!
