2026 Sikail 108 Hangzhou Dasong Trail Race（思凯乐·2026杭州大宋108越野赛）

The Mid-Lake Pavilion stands on West Lake in Hangzhou, People's Republic of China, and is one of the four famous pavilions of China. 'Gazing Afar from the Lake Centre' was listed as one of the Eighteen Scenes of West Lake in the Qing dynasty; the island is surrounded entirely by water and the water entirely by hills. Zhang Dai, a man of the Ming dynasty, left the essay 'Viewing Snow at the Mid-Lake Pavilion', which made its snow scene famous throughout the world. After closed maintenance in 2009 the island remained open to the public, but large tour boats are not received, so visitors must hire a boat or row one themselves to reach the island.

Solitary Hill is a natural island in West Lake, Hangzhou, surrounded by water on all sides (the Outer West Lake and the North Inner Lake). Since the Bai Causeway was built on its eastern side in the Tang dynasty, linking it eastward to the Broken Bridge and westward to the Xiling Bridge, Solitary Hill has no longer been an isolated island in the lake, hence the saying that "Solitary Hill is not solitary". Solitary Hill is a spur of Qixia Ridge in the northern hills of West Lake, covers 300 mu, and is the largest island in West Lake; at 38 metres above sea level it is the lowest of the West Lake hills.

West Lake, also known as Xihu and by other names, is a freshwater lake in Hangzhou, China. Situated to the west of Hangzhou's former walled city, the lake has a surface area of 6.39 km2 (2.47 sq mi), stretching 3.2 km (2.0 mi) from north to south and 2.8 km (1.7 mi) from east to west. In the lake are four causeways, three artificial islands, and Gushan, the only natural island. Gentle hills surround the lake on its north, west, and south sides, with the Leifeng and Baochu pagodas standing in pair on the south and north banks. Several famous temples are nestled in the mountains west of the lake, including Lingyin and Jingci Temples. A tourist attraction since the Tang dynasty (618–907), the lake has influenced poets and painters throughout Chinese history for its natural beauty and historic relics. By the Song dynasty (960–1279), during which the dynastic capital moved to Hangzhou, it had become a cultural landmark and one of the most visited tourist destinations of China. Introduced to Europeans by Marco Polo, the lake was once a symbol of Chinese urban culture. It has been featured on Chinese currency, including the one-yuan banknote in the 1979 Bank of China Foreign Exchange Certificate and the 2005 Renminbi, as well as in the Chinese passport. A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2011, the lake is recognised to have influenced garden designs in China, Japan, and Korea over the centuries as "an idealised fusion between humans and nature." The lake, along with the surrounding hills, constitutes the West Lake Scenic Area, which is governed by the Management Committee of Hangzhou West Lake Scenic Area, a special administration dedicated to cultural preservation and gardening under the Hangzhou municipal government since 2002. The first major Chinese tourist attraction to cancel admission fees, the scenic area is crowded during public holidays. Over the 2024 National Day holiday, the area received 4.426 million visitors in seven days, a 30.92% rise from the previous year.

Huajiachi lies within the Huajiachi campus of Zhejiang University, from which the campus takes its name, and is known as the "Little West Lake". It is one of the sub-items of the former site of Zhejiang Agricultural University, a cultural relic protection unit of Zhejiang Province in the seventh batch.
