Overview

The West Lake Foreign Affairs Cruise is a very famous sightseeing program in Hangzhou. "The West Lake in spring is clear and mud-free, with painted boats and red curtains moving along the shore." The Chinese-style medium-sized painted boat fleet of the Foreign Affairs Cruise Company is a series of painted boats on West Lake. The boat type is simple and clear, with an antique design. Sitting on the boat and enjoying the beautiful scenery of West Lake gives one the feeling of "boats cruising in the water, people walking in a painting," which is classical and beautiful. It can accommodate large Chinese and foreign tourist groups and is well-received by the majority of tourists. "Phoenixes call and dragons roar, the day is long, and immortal maidens are drunk amidst falling flowers." The Foreign Affairs Cruise owns a pair of dragon and phoenix bronze painted boats, personally created by master sculptor Zhu Bingren. Legend has it that West Lake was originally a bright pearl that fell from the sky, and a dragon and a phoenix frolicked on West Lake, symbolizing a dragon and phoenix playing with a pearl, which signifies auspiciousness. The tops of the Dragon Roar and Phoenix Cry boats are all golden, suitable for small meetings and private wedding charters, and are used by the foreign affairs department to receive Chinese and foreign VIPs every year. "In August, osmanthus flowers bloom everywhere, and their blooming brings happiness." The Foreign Affairs Cruise has three boats named after the osmanthus flower, the city flower of Hangzhou, namely "Golden Osmanthus," "Silver Osmanthus," and "Jade Osmanthus." These are double-deck luxury painted boats. They have a beautiful appearance and smooth lines, suitable for receiving large Chinese and foreign groups for sightseeing.
