Zhejiang packs more of the classic Chinese south into a small map than any other province: the lake-and-tea capital of Hangzhou, canal towns with lantern-lit water lanes, a wine-dark old city out of Lu Xun's pages, a Buddhist island in the East China Sea, a volcano of stone pinnacles, a drowned-valley lake with a thousand islands, and even a town-sized film studio. Everything on this list sits within a few hours of Hangzhou by high-speed rail — the loop below strings them together, and each stop has its own HelloChina handbook.
