West Lake Cultural Landscape of Hangzhou |
Two sites in China will be weighed respectively to enter the list of natural property and cultural property -- Wudalianchi National Park in Heilongjiang province, north China and West Lake Cultural Landscape of Hangzhou, the capital of Zhejiang province in eastern China.
The Wudalianchi National Park, meaning the five interconnected parks, is famous for a topographical miracle wrought by an erupting volcanic mountain more than 60,000 years ago, while the ancient city of Hangzhou, dubbed as "the Heaven on Earth," endowed the West Lake surroundings a beautiful scenery and enriched it with dramatic myths.
