Hangzhou is one of the most beautiful cities in China. Close to Shanghai (1-1/2 hours by train) with historical sites, tea gardens and West Lake, Hangzhou's most popular spot. We visited Hangzhou for several days two years ago (more videos can be seen from that trip previously uploaded on YouTube, and were thrilled to have a few hours to once again enjoy the sights.

Today, plum trees are in full blossom and a serious "matchmaking" event is taking place. Posters strung on pink ribbons along a section of West Lake. Each with a photograph and bio of someone looking for the perfect "match"...or maybe not-so-perfect match. There's always something going on and to see around West Lake in Hangzhou...
