    To be honest, as a southerner who grew up surrounded by plenty of mountains and rivers, West Lake doesn't particularly impress me.

      What makes West Lake stand out is its location right in the heart of the city; that's truly unique.

        Hangzhou doesn't really have much to offer besides West Lake.

          Xiang Lake is beautiful too, it's just not as famous.

            Perhaps it has a certain unique charm?

              The water looks quite 'rich' (not crystal clear). The first time I visited Hangzhou, West Lake just seemed like an ordinary lake to me. The second time, I started to like it. On my third trip last week, I specifically wanted to visit West Lake again before heading back. Afterwards, I felt so comfortable and relaxed—I'm not sure what its magic is.

                I just visited today, and it's truly beautiful no matter how you look at it. It's actually made me think about settling down in Hangzhou.

                  I went today too, and the same thought crossed my mind!

                    Try visiting the western part of the lake on a rainy day, and steer clear of the crowded tourist spots.
