Hangzhou – the best business and tourism city in China

Perficient’s China Global Delivery Center was established in 2004 and is located in Hangzhou, China.

As an employee of this company for more than three years and a citizen in Hangzhou, I am more than proud to introduce this wonderful city to you – the best business and tourism city in China.

Hangzhou, as the capital of Zhejiang province, is located along the southeast coast of China, and it only takes 40 minutes by the newly built high-speed railway from Shanghai.  Hangzhou is a key national tourism city, historical city and vice provincial level city as confirmed by the State Council. Hangzhou is renowned as “Paradise on Earth”, “Cultural State”, “Home of Silk”, “Tea Capital”, “Town of Fish and Rice”.

Hangzhou – China’s Best Tourism City:

Hangzhou is renowned for its historic relics and natural beauty. It is often known as one of the most beautiful cities in China. It has been ranked as one of the ten most scenic cities in China.

The famed West Lake at the center of Hangzhou, with its natural beauty as well as cultural and historical significance, has drawn travelers to the city for the past thousand years. Once the capital of the Southern Song dynasty, Hangzhou has been immortalized in countless poems. Marco Polo once spoke of Hangzhou as “the finest and the noblest in the world”, and a traditional Chinese saying goes, “Above is Heaven; below are Suzhou and Hangzhou”.

Hangzhou – China’s Best Business City:

Since 2005, Hangzhou has consistently been ranked number one on Forbes magazine’s annual ‘China’s Best Places for Business’ list. The survey looks at the quality of the labor force, business costs, market size and capitalization to find the top business cities in the country.

Welcome to Hangzhou!
