As a Chinese saying goes 'just as there is paradise in heaven, ther are Suzhou and Hangzhou on earth', Hangzhou, in which I'm living, is really a beautiful city. I reckon that the ancient Chinese who created the saying hadn't taken the places out of China's territory into consideration. But it at least shows that Hangzhou has been famous for its beauty since long before.
Hangzhou is the capital of Zhejiang province, PRC. Even though it is a famous resort for Chinese tourists, many foreigners have not heard of it before. Its fame is comparatively much less than that of Beijing or Shanghai. Paradise is a place of ideal beauty or loveliness. Hangzhou actually holds many beautiful man-made beautiful scenes around the natural West Lake, but it lacks ideal loveliness for its overladen roads and extremely expensive housing price which are similar to Shanghai and Beijing.
My ideal paradise is simply a cozy home, where I can enjoy a peaceful and pleasant life with my family, without worrying about making money, paying bills and dealing with trifles. It is a place for pure relaxation and enjoyment, no matter where it locates, no matter how long I can stay. It exists in dreams.
