6. Peak That Flew from Afar

Located just outside the famous Lingyin Temple, Peak That Flew From Afar draws many visitors each year. It's a hillside that contains multiple Buddhist carvings. Legend has it that the carvings "flew" from a holy mountain in India and landed on Hangzhou's West Lake hillside. The attraction includes a number of caves and over 350 different rock carvings, with figures in a variety of poses. Many of the carvings were crafted during the Yuan Dynasty, making them over 600 years old.   (© 10Best)
