Orioles Singing in the Willows is one of the traditional named scenes of Hangzhou's West Lake. The name sounds poetic because it is: this is a place of willow-lined paths, water views, and garden composition rather than a single object to tick off.
It is best visited as part of an unhurried West Lake walk. The scene helps explain why Hangzhou's landscape has been praised for centuries: city, lake, planting, and literary memory all overlap in a very deliberate way.
