The 2016 G20 Hangzhou Summit was the eleventh G20 leaders' summit. It was held in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, on 4 and 5 September 2016. It was the first time China hosted a G20 leaders' summit, and the second time such a summit was held in an Asian country, after South Korea hosted the 2010 G20 Seoul Summit.

Ruangong Isle is one of the three small islands on West Lake in Hangzhou, and was formed during the Jiaqing period of the Qing dynasty. It is the latest to have formed and the latest to be developed of the three islands of West Lake, and together with Three Pools Mirroring the Moon and the Mid-Lake Pavilion it makes up the "Three Penglai Isles" of West Lake. In 1985 it was chosen as one of the "Ten New Scenes of West Lake" under the name Ruandun Huanbi. After West Lake was successfully inscribed as a World Heritage Site in 2011, the island was turned into an ecological reserve closed to the public.

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.
