---

Xixi Wetland, as a piece of "jade", has always been my favorite. The wild and charming Xixi Wetland can be celebrated during the "Flower Festival" in spring and the lotus in summer,
In autumn, I come to pick persimmons, and in winter, I come to pick snowflakes fluttering in the reeds. In such a peaceful wilderness, there is a manor that integrates accommodation, meetings, dining, and entertainment - Xixi Manor. Today, let's go and explore the flowers!
Entering the park from the north gate of Xixi Wetland, you will come to Fudi. The most attractive thing is the "Wufang" Stone memorial archway. Although Wufang has a small landscape
There are relatively rich elements; Water, shore, lotus, trees, plank road and memorial archway form a Jiangnan ink painting, which is simple in color,
But it naturally blends into the tranquil beauty of Xixi.

There is a parking lot near Fudi, and multiple buses (Route 86, 130, 83 Xixi Wetland North Gate Station) arrive,

After parking, you can walk 500 meters
Upon arrival at Xixi Manor, you can also contact the Xixi Manor service desk by phone and take the shuttle bus from Xixi Manor to get there.

Entering the restaurant of Xixi Manor, there is a large teapot at the entrance, and mountain spring water gushes out of it. Upon entering the restaurant, a waiter will come to guide you
Private rooms, manor restaurants, villa style private rooms, hidden in the depths of the Xixi Wetland, blend in with the natural landscape, featuring the Chinese twelve solar terms of the beginning of spring

A winding path leads to a secluded place, with deep flowers and trees in the meditation room

Spring is also a busy season, and flowers bloom one after another. First, there are plum blossoms, then peach blossoms, pear blossoms, tulips, and peonies, which are overwhelming. I also recommend a few places to admire flowers in Hangzhou, and walk with friends into the green mountains and waters of Hangzhou. Hangzhou not only has West Lake, West Creek, but also many secluded places to admire flowers. It can be said that there is scenery everywhere, just like a big garden. Going out is a green space, and the park is free of charge. The trees on both sides of the road are also planted with flowers and trees of different seasons. This is the magnolia flower captured on the roadside, which should be the earliest to bloom. When taking a walk after eating a good meal, under the light and shadow near the community, the magnolias under the street lights can appear like flowers under the colorful lights, revealing their most delicate side

The blossoming flowers on the branches make people stand still
White flowers overlap through light and shadow
1： Gushan is a free park located in the northwest corner of West Lake in Hangzhou. Surrounded by water on all sides, Gushan is a unique mountain. Although not high, it is the best place to enjoy the scenery of West Lake. It is named Gushan due to its location between the inner and outer lakes of West Lake, and also known as Meiyu due to its abundance of plum blossoms. Gushan has an altitude of 38 meters and is the lowest mountain in the West Lake group. You can take a bus to Yuemiao, and after passing through Xilengqiao, you can reach Gushan Park.
.


Although the rain is continuous, it does not hinder the interest in traveling and admiring plum blossoms.

Exquisite stone carvings
Gushan is not only a scenic spot, but also a gathering place of cultural relics. To the south, there are Wenlan Pavilion, West Lake Tianxia Scenic Area, Zhejiang Museum, and Zhongshan Park. To the west of the mountain top, there is Xiling Seal Engraving Society. To the west, there is the tomb of Qiujin, and to the northeast, there is a Crane Pavilion. The Fanghe Pavilion was built in memory of the reclusive poet Lin Hejing of the Song Dynasty, who has a legend about his wife and son. His famous poem on plum blossoms, "The sparse shadows slant horizontally, the water is clear and shallow, and the faint fragrance floats on the moon at dusk," has been passed down to this day.

One stone bridge, one courtyard gate, and one plum blossom all reveal the exquisite beauty of Jiangnan gardens

The petals in the ground make people feel a lot of pity
Along the lake, you can see wild green headed ducks and mandarin ducks wandering in the lake, swaying in light waves. The vegetation is also very lush, with plum and camellias in full bloom. After the rain, the flowers and leaves are colorful. In the misty rain of West Lake, the newly sprouted tender green willow leaves, dotted red plum blossoms, and delicate camellias in spring all make people wander in the beautiful scenery of spring.

Paired Mandarin Ducks
Following the isolated mountain path, you can reach the "Xileng Printing Society", which is also a great place to enjoy the beautiful scenery of West Lake from afar,

Fragmented flowers can also be so elegant and calm

The true fulfillment of the saying "mountains are not high, immortals are famous, water is no longer deep, and dragons are spiritual." In the 29th year of the Guangxu reign (1908), under the leadership of the artistic master Wu Changshuo, the Xiling Seal Engraving Society was established. At that time, renowned domestic and foreign seal carving artists gathered here, becoming the center of activities for national gold, stone, seal carving, and calligraphy and painting art.

The Xiling Seal Engraving Society preserves over 250 pieces of historical inscriptions, inscriptions, epitaphs, and portrait stones. The reflecting springs, stone pagodas, and wall carvings in the mountains can be found everywhere with traces of history, making it a three-dimensional garden that integrates natural beauty and artistic beauty.

Eight Scenic Spots of Longjing

---

---

This is a great time for outdoor spring outings in spring. The destination is located at the foot of Lijilang Mountain, and Longjing Village is already well-known to many tourists. Lijilang Mountain is a bit confusing. Shuangfeng Village at the foot of Lijilang Mountain is located in the middle of West Lake, Lingyin Temple, Longjing, and Manjuelong, with nearby attractions such as the Eight Scenic Spots of Longjing and Longjing Tea. And there are only about 20 households in the entire Shuangfeng Village, and the villagers still live the life of tea farmers who pick and stir fry tea. The peaceful and peaceful people in the village are comfortable and happy, and there are several distinctive homestays set up. The village is also surrounded by several acres of tea fields.

With the murmuring clear stream, I saw the blooming cherry trees on the shore, and the falling petals followed the stream towards the distance


Surrounded by tea gardens, in the distance are mountains and murmuring streams, accompanied by romantic red plums and cherry blossoms by small streams in the mountains. The petals of the red plums float with the gentle spring breeze and fall on the tea trees, streams, and soil around them. The sound of birds chirping is crisp. Purple wildflowers bloom in the tea garden, and wild bees buzzing and flying busily gather honey. In the fields, wild vegetables such as shepherd's purse and Malan head, which have just sprouted in spring, can be found. The place full of wildness is like a "paradise" hidden in this green mountain and green land. In water.

The "Eight Scenic Spots of Longjing" are located in a valley in the northeast of Longjing Temple, with Longjing Road as the boundary to the northwest, connected to the West Lake scenic area to the north, and reaching the foot of the South Peak to the southeast. The so-called Eight Scenic Spots refer to "Fenghuangling, Guoxi Pavilion, Dixinnuo, Yiyun, Fangyuan'an, Longhong Creek, Shenyun Stone, and Cuifeng Pavilion.".
During the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Qianlong visited Jiangnan six times, admiring the scenery and tea names of Longjing. He toured Longjing four times, searching for mountains and asking for water, watching tea and singing, and composing the "Eight Songs of Longjing". He inscribed the "Eight Scenic Spots of Longjing" - Fenghuangling, Guoxi Pavilion, Fangyuan'an, Shenyun Stone, Dixinnuo, Yiyun, Longhongjian, and Cuifeng Pavilion, earning him the title of "the best lake and mountain". In 1985, "Longjing Wencha" was listed as one of the ten new scenic spots of West Lake. From 2005 to 2006, Hangzhou implemented the Longjing Tea Culture Scenic Area renovation project, finally allowing tourists to witness the historical style of "Longjing Eight Scenic Spots" on this year's National Day.

There is almost no stone tablet in the Poetry Stele Gallery, but it is re expressed using the methods of Beijing brick carving and imperial calligraphy. These imperial calligraphies are all based on the original poems inscribed on the Eight Scenic Spots of Longjing during the third southern tour of Emperor Qianlong, which were collected in the Capital Museum. After being magnified twice, they were directly displayed on ancient Xuan paper in the Poetry Stele Gallery.

Poetry Stele Gallery: Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty visited Longjing four times, each time reciting the Eight Scenic Spots, resulting in 32 poems titled "Eight Odes to Longjing". The current collection of poetry carvings is mostly based on the original works of the year, with some being supplemented by famous domestic calligraphers.

The other 24 poems were also rubbings by Emperor Qianlong's hand found in major libraries and archives in China. If they were not found, they were also written by famous domestic calligraphers. The remaining 24 poems were carved and displayed on the Beijing bricks, which are a type of blue-grey square brick used to pave the ground in the Forbidden City, named after the emperor stepping on them.

The wooden stele corridor, over 100 meters long, is divided into four sections, and the "Eight Odes to the Dragon Well" is carved on the blue-grey Beijing bricks inside the corridor



Guoxi Pavilion: Located outside Longjing Temple. The high monk Biancai of the Northern Song Dynasty retreated from Tianzhu to Longjing Temple. In front of the temple, there was a water flow called Huxi, and the small bridge on Huxi was called "Guiyin", meaning that Biancai had already retreated to the mountains. One day, Su Dongpo visited and became friends with him at first sight. The two of them chatted by candle at night. The next day, the debater saw off the guests from the mountain, and the two of them chatted while walking. However, the debater forgot the clear rule he had set for "seeing off guests at the mountain gate, the farthest distance is no more than Huxi", and escorted Dongpo across Huxi. Because the bridge was renamed "Crossing the Creek". Later generations built the pavilion on the ridge, which was called "Guoxi Pavilion" or "Erlao Pavilion". One of the Eight Scenic Spots of Longjing, inscribed by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty.

During the renovation process of the Eight Scenic Spots in Longjing, five rural households were preserved. These 5 households are located in the north of Shilong, and their small villas have become the new scenery of Longjing - each of the 5 rural houses has 3 two-story buildings facing south, with a total area of about 200 square meters. The old yellow wooden windows and railings decorate the houses in an antique style. If I didn't tell you, you wouldn't know they were residential houses.

The Qing Dynasty Emperor Qianlong's Love for the Eight Scenic Spots of Longjing

Longhongjian: Longjing, also known as Longhong. Longhongjian originates from Longjing, flows through Dixinnuo, Guoxiting, Waijilong, and finally flows into West Lake. The spring water here flows in the Tian Tian region for years. Descending from the edge of Longjing Temple, there are layers of cliffs and walls standing, and the flowing water pours down, crossing the Creek Pavilion and merging into West Lake. The ancient travelogues once described the landscape of Longhong Creek: in the area of Dixin Marsh, strange rocks and rugged terrain, the stream water split out of the chaotic peaks like dozens of white dragons, and the sound of the rushing current hitting the stone cave was as loud as millions of gongs and drums playing together. The Qianlong imperial inscription "Longhongjian" is one of the eight scenic spots of Longjing in the Qing Dynasty.

Huanhuachi: During the Ming Zhengtong period (1436-1449), there was a severe drought. Li De, the then Governor General of Zhejiang, ordered soldiers to clean the well. The spring water was surging, so three ponds were dredged, and Huanhua was one of them. The spring water flows down from the bend of Longhong, with mixed flowers growing beside it. Flying birds dip into the water and dance in the sky, hence the name "Huanhua".


3： Hangzhou Baguatian

The Baguatian Scenic Area is located at the southern foot of Yuhuang Mountain on the southeast side of West Lake Scenic Area in Hangzhou. It borders Nanfu Road to the east, Huyu Road (Ceramic Market) to the south, and Baiyun Road to the west, covering an area of approximately 150 acres. Also known as "Eight Hill Fields," there are eight different types of crops planted on it. Throughout the year, the eight crops appear in different colors. In the center of the Bagua field, there is a round earthen mound, which is the Tai Chi diagram.

Hangzhou Baguatian was once a site of the royal land of the Southern Song Dynasty. Jitian is a microcosm of ancient Chinese agricultural culture that prioritized agriculture. It was a place where ancient emperors valued agricultural production through sacred ritual activities. Bagua Tian first appeared in Ming Dynasty records, according to< West Lake Tour Chronicles> Record: "In the scenic spots of Nanshan, there is a field called Song Yitian, located at the foot of Tianlong Temple. The central Fu is round and surrounded by gullies, forming an eight trigrams shape. It is commonly known as the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Field, and remains stable to this day.".
