Bits and pieces of my life: China Trip Part 2: Hangzhou

After staying at shaoxing for one day we took a bus and arrived at Hangzhou. We are staying there for 3 days so we separated the different places of interest over 3 days. On the first day, we went to the Mausoleum of General Yue Fei, the Meijia house for dragon-well tea plantation and the Song cheng Theme Park. I learnt a lot more about General Yue Fei and his past. In the past, the king and his elder son was captured by the enemy and Yue Fei was sent to safely bring the King and the elder son. Just as he was about to win the battle, the younger son told Yue Fei to abort the mission and come back to the palace. As the younger son has a higher position compared to Yue Fei, he had no choice but to listen to him and come back to the palace. The younger son did not wanted his father and elder brother to come back as he wanted to be king so if they came back he could not be the king anymore. I also learn more about tea and the process of getting tea. The difference between grade A and B is that they are harvest from different time but from the same tree. Grade A is harvest before the qin ming day but Grade B is harvest after the qin ming day. The best grade is harvest from a different tree but the same period as Grade A. The Song cheng Theme Park is really fun, once you enter you feel like you have enter the Song dynasty period. You should really go there and explore it is really fun. On the second day, we went to the west lake, leafing pagoda and the lingyin temple. All thoses places have nice scenery adn alot of historal buildings.
