Lakes showcase some of water's most alluring qualities, from mesmerizing ripples and mirror-like reflections to crystalline clarity. The world has millions of them, from tiny grass-lined ponds to massive freshwater expanses easily mistaken for oceans. In November, Hangzhou`s West Lake was named as part of, US publication, The Huffington Post`s selected list of [20 of the World`s Most Beautiful Lakes". West Lake was given the honor of being selected as Number 4 on this list. The beauty here is not just the landscape - a slice of verdant green in Hangzhou - but the lifestyle of its elderly residents who treat West Lake like a vast sunrise wellness center as they gather to practice Tai Chi, engage in graceful fan dances, or walk the perimeter listening to small radios playing Chinese music.
West Lake is regarded as an exquisite piece of scenery by the City of Hangzhou, but it also allows city residents to get close and intimate with its environment. Nearly all of Chinese people know it is a beautiful and elegant destination for traveling and leisure due to its uniqueness and enchantment formed over the past thousands of years.
Even more alluring are West Lake`s many pavilions and buildings that have been preserved since the Tang Dynasty such as `The Broken Bridge`; an eternal favorite spot for photographers and tourists that frequent the park.
In their words: "The beauty of West Lake is not just the landscape-a slice of verdant green in Hangzhou, but the lifestyle of its elderly residents who treat West Lake like a vast sunrise wellness center as they gather to practice Tai Chi, engage in graceful fan dances or walk the perimeter listening to small radios playing Chinese music. In addition to this microcosm of daily life, the lake also offers stellar photo-ops, from the Tang Dynasty-era Broken Bridge to charming pavilions with upturned roofs.
