‘Beautiful’ Hangzhou

Hangzhou was named the “Most Beautiful City of China” in the 2015 ranking of Chinese cities published recently by the China Institute of City Competitiveness.

The city ranked second in the happiness category and was among the top 10 in innovation, international influence and cultural competitiveness.

Tonglu County of Hangzhou ranked first in the happiness chart for Chinese counties and second in the scenery chart.

The ranking is based on a dozen indexes. The happiness ranking, for example, is made with reference to indexes such as people’s satisfaction, quality of living, environment, ethical standards, and social welfare.

Founded in Hong Kong in 1998, the China Institute of City Competitiveness is an independent research and survey organization that provides urban planning and management solutions to city leaders.
