Buddhist and Vegetarian in Hangzhou

Hangzhou is a city with deep Buddhist roots. It's not just about religion; it's a living part of Hangzhou's beauty and culture. Lingyin Temple is the most important one where you can see magnificent temple and mystical ancient stone carvings. Because of the fame, Lingyin Tample is always crowded. So we will explore another temple with very few tourists to experience the true serenity of Buddhist. Vegetarian meal is very popular in Hangzhou because of Buddhist culture. We will experience it too!

“Great visit to Hangzhou”

Hangzhou is a beautiful city and Ben W. was an excellent guide. Met us at the train station and took us to all the important sites during our time there. Was very accomodative and knowledgeable. His English is excellent (you will need an English speaking guide to navigate the city). Definitely five stars.

Ben W.

Thank you very much for your kind review. I am very glad that I could help and you enjoyed the tour in Hangzhou. I also enjoy the days with you because we had so many interesting conversations, so many happy laughs. All those happy moments will become a lifetime memory for me!
