I went to YongKang to visit my grandpa in the hospital. When I saw grandpa, I shook my hands with him. He felt very happy and I felt very happy too.
In YongKang I saw lots of food. My favorite food is braised pork belly. It tasted very tender, sweet and flavorful. I really like to eat small mantou. All the foods I ate were delicious.
I took a high speed train for one hour to HangZhou, a city in the southeast of China. On the first day I went to West Lake. I hiked the Broken Bridge.
I saw Leifeng Tower, willow trees and heard bird songs.
I also saw three pools mirroring the moon. I took a boat around West Lake. It has beautiful sights.
My mom and I visited Lingyin Temple. I saw people praying for blessings. I saw Feilai Feng Peak.
I saw a Buddha statue and ancient Buddhist stone. I also saw a peaceful mountain.
On the second day I went to Qianjiang New City. There are lots of landmark buildings and beautiful views of the Qiantang River. In the evening I saw a lights show on the river.
On the evening of the third day we went to Xitang Ancient Town.
I saw ancient water towns, stone bridges, covered walkways, and beautiful canals.
I bought street snacks, traditional handmade gifts and fruits. I felt very crowded because there were too many people.
I had a good time and a special experience in HangZhou. My favorite place is West Lake.
