Yes, we visited Hangzhou two weeks ago. Yes, I was slacking off and just got around to downloading the photos from off my camera. You don’t have to look if you don’t want to!
West Lake was our first stop. The pagoda, hills and distant city were muted backdrops thanks to a hazy, grey sky. This is just a sample of the many boats that toured the lake that morning.
At our second destination we saw quite a bit of these guys. All throughout the garden there were various carvings, similar to the ones pictured above, tucked away in the rocky landscape.
Burning incense and offering up prayers.
One of the two temples that were home to a giant, golden Buddha. No photos were allowed to be taken inside.
The third stop was a quick one. We walked in, snapped a few photos of the enormous pagoda and marched ourselves right back out.
Finally, we visited a green tea farm. We got the lowdown on growing, harvesting, drying, quality and such. Neither of us are big tea drinkers but found the tour pretty interesting. :)

There are giant rock people in that place. BE CAREFUL!
No worries - rumor has it they wouldn't hurt a flea. :)
