Hangzhou, the capital of Zhejiang Province, is known for its beautiful landscapes, e-commerce and tech industries (home to Alibaba and other giants). Just 180 km from Shanghai, this city sits on the banks of the Qiantang River and is home to the famous West Lake, a place that’s been admired by poets and artists for centuries.
As a local, I love taking a boat on West Lake—it's like being in a painting, with the mist and the willow trees. Around West Lake, there’s always something chill—concerts, talk shows, and tons of street food. I usually end my day with some tasty Hangzhou dishes at a nearby restaurant.
Come and you'll see why they say, “上有天堂,下有苏杭” (Heaven above, Suzhou and Hangzhou below). So pack your bags and go! This is a city you don’t want to miss.
So, you’re headed to Hangzhou, and you’re probably wondering how to get there and into the city. Well, here's the lowdown: Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport (HGH) is the main hub for both domestic and international flights. You’ll find flights from major cities like Beijing, Hong Kong, and even Amsterdam.
Hangzhou Xiaoshan Airport is about 30 km (19 miles) from downtown, and you’ve got a couple of easy ways to get to city center.
If you’re feeling a bit jet-lagged and want to skip the stress of figuring out transportation at 2 AM, consider booking a hotel that offers free airport shuttles or even airport pickups.

West Lake Area: Right next to Hangzhou's Westlake with gorgeous temples and gardens everywhere. Hotels are pricey but you're paying for location - plus Metro Line 1 gets you anywhere you need to go.
Wulin Square: This is where young locals hang out - with amazing malls like In77, the best food streets, and more reasonable hotel prices than West Lake. Super convenient with three metro lines crossing here.
Binjiang, Tianjie, Longhu: My go-to recommendation for better hotel deals while still being just 15 minutes from West Lake by metro. Modern district with great riverside views and lots of new restaurants and cafes popping up.
Hangzhou is the city with endless things to do! You can explore West Lake with boat rides, visit the serene Lingyin Temple, or stroll through the Xixi National Wetland Park. Tea lovers should check out Meijiawu Tea Village and the Longjing tea fields.
