Leifeng Tower

A stone throw from the beautiful West Lake, this beautifully reconstructed temple is worth a visit. Either climb up the stairs, or simple ride up the escalator and explore the 5 levels for different experiences - from Buddhist paintings, recounting the history of the temple to the romantic tale between Madame White Snake and Xu Xian. Visit can be completed in 1.5-2 hours. #hangzhou #leifengpagoda
