People always say that "Up above there is Paradise, down here there are Suzhou and Hangzhou". While for Hangzhou, the West Lake is no wonder a must-see scenic spot. Scholars and talents of all ages have left numerous poetry praising for the West Lake, like Tang Dynasty poet Bai Junyi and Song Dynasty poet Su Shi who wrote that "West lake may be compared to Lady of the West, whether she is richly adorned or plainly dressed."
