The city of Hangzhou has long been known for its natural beauty, a renown now translated to its creative industries following a national plan unveiled two years ago.
In Xihu, the largest district in the city, the creative industry generated nearly 13 billion yuan ($2.1 billion) last year, accounting for 27 percent of the district's total GDP.
The target has been set at 15 billion yuan this year, some 30 percent of the district's total GDP.
