Features: "West Lake Panorama" was published in 1979 and was a comprehensive compilation at the time, covering everything from scenic spots of West Lake and local legends of Hangzhou to literary tales, historical figures, and famous Hangzhou products. It received attention from the domestic publishing industry and was well-received by readers. Later, English and Japanese editions were also released, selling well both domestically and internationally. In the nearly two decades since, Hangzhou has seen rapid development, with new West Lake attractions constantly being developed, achieving remarkable results in establishing itself as a historical and cultural city. To promote West Lake Hangzhou and welcome the "China Hangzhou—2000 West Lake Expo," we have revised "West Lake Panorama." We hope that through this book, "Let the world know West Lake Hangzhou, let West Lake Hangzhou go to the world," becomes a shared treasure of human civilization.
