Fahua Academy
The academy has a bright two-story space where light filters through exquisite window lattices, making the entire environment exceptionally transparent. With rich collections, wooden bookshelves paired with soft lighting, and a faint ink fragrance floating in the air, it allows people to forget worldly noise and savor West Lake's cultural heritage.
The academy regularly holds intangible cultural heritage crafts, tea appreciation and other activities, both showcasing Hangzhou's unique culture to tourists and providing a spiritual sanctuary for those seeking momentary tranquility in the fast-paced city.
Popular Bookstore
Located on the Zijingang Campus, covering 500 square meters with 30,000 books on shelves.
