禪意悠悠

Hangzhou is a major center of Chan Buddhism in southern China and a popular destination for pilgrimages.
杭州是中國南方佛教禪宗的主要中心和熱門朝圣地。

Among the top spots for Zen-seekers is Lingyin -- which means "soul's retreat." It's one of the country's oldest and most important Buddhist monasteries.
禪宗信徒最愛探訪的地方當屬靈隱寺——“靈隱”意為“仙靈之歸隱”。這是中國最古老最重要的佛寺之一。

Even if you're not interested in the religion, the pagodas and pavilions, bridges and statues offer a sense of how Buddhism is woven into the landscape.
