Xiamen or Hangzhou

16 years ago
Hey,

I'm looking to move to China to teach English in January and I can't decide between Hangzhou and Xiamen. Hangzhou has West Lake which looks amazing but Xiamen is warmer and has the beach. Xiamen also came higher in a "most suitable place to live" poll in China Daily.

Both places have rugby teams, which is a plus, as well as reasonable expat communities.

Any suggestions?

Cheers, U
