About Hangzhou

Hangzhou, the capital of Zhejiang Province, is one of China’s most elegant and scenic cities, where tranquil lakes, tea-covered hills, and a dynamic modern skyline come together with remarkable grace. The UNESCO-listed West Lake Cultural Landscape and the Hangzhou section of the Grand Canal reflect the city’s long-standing importance as a center of commerce, culture, and refined living. Its culinary heritage is equally memorable, from sweet-and-sour West Lake fish and rich Dongpo pork to the celebrated Longjing tea grown in the surrounding hills.

About Manila

Manila, the vibrant capital of the Philippines, blends colonial architecture, bustling districts, and a celebrated bayfront into a city rich in history and modern energy. At its heritage heart lies Intramuros, the old Spanish walled city, home to landmarks such as the UNESCO-listed San Agustin Church and Fort Santiago. Manila’s character is just as vivid on the plate, with beloved Filipino flavors found in dishes like adobo, kare-kare, and the refreshing dessert halo-halo.
