The above picture shows the scenic spot we encountered: Song City, which is not our dish.

At noon (11:30), we checked in at Yazhi Mengxi Villa. At this moment, we swept away the previous depression. Mengxi Villa can be said to be a picturesque view of the mountains and rivers. The scenery was born from our hearts, and our hearts suddenly opened up. With a gentle breeze and a harmonious spring scenery, this place is not only a tranquil and elegant place surrounded by lush greenery, but also a blessed place for self-cultivation and seeking enlightenment. It is also a safe haven for us to travel to Hangzhou for three days and two nights.

What I desire here is that the gate of the villa opens up a lifestyle of private gardens and mountain households offering clean supplies; A simple house for receiving guests and entertaining people, advocating minimalism, with delicate and elegant hair that exudes simplicity and simplicity. It adds a touch of Zen and Japanese style, making you warm like jade and making me soft and radiant. Amidst envy in my social circle, I am generous in praising: - This manual like- Le Bu Si Shu's new life- Traveling in front of and behind a horse, with heavy movements- Ha Dian!

Entering the main topic, the so-called mountain villa must be in harmony with the mountains and rivers. The beauty of the mountains and rivers has been talked about since ancient times, and this requires climbing a distance and experiencing it with heart. We looked up from the parking spot and saw the three main buildings in the mottled shadows. The waiter led us up the stairs to the highest building, Building 3. The two guest rooms on the top floor were our residence, and Ting and Zhang's one, called Changge Xing. Ping and I stayed on the road and sang.

Good mountains, good water, good accommodation, let's familiarize ourselves first.

The massage bathtub on the terrace can create an atmosphere of harmony between heaven and humanity during bathing, with hibiscus giving off clear water and natural embellishments. If you are gentle, the atmosphere can be hot spring water skating, eating lychees, being in Dream Creek, looking up at the stars; If you are resolute, you may be like the Jacobin Mara, the warrior Samson, who, even in the bath, has been writing fiercely and fighting until death.

By the stairs of the terrace, we lowered our height to the next level. The observation platform, nestled in the lush shadows of the trees, offers various styles of dining tables, tables, and spaces, both indoors and outdoors. Even outdoors, there is a highly private tent cabin. The four of us didn't carry any personal belongings, so it was healthier to sunbathe. We chose an open dining table for six people, and naturally, we put up umbrellas to start our lunch break at 13:20

The tea leaves are a bit stale on the taste, and if they are spilled, we will replace them with our own Zhengshan Xiaozhong; Tea, simple enough, if not enough, we also bring it ourselves.

During the tea break, several guests from lower floors arrived, and their seating choices were a bit erratic and indecisive. In the end, the chosen one kept a distance from us and sat in small groups, but their voices were not late. Their voices occasionally hit our eardrums.

We bid farewell and went down. In the outdoor swimming pool of Building 2, we didn't see any swimmers. Instead, it was the hotel's deep-seated hot dog that crawled by the pool and called out, lazily without a response.

Walking in Jiuxi

The way out of the hotel is Jiuxi Road, turn left? turn right? Two years ago, we walked through Jiuxi once. From top to bottom, Yangmeiling followed Jiuxi to Qiantang. This time, we traced back to Mengxi Mountain Villa, Jiuxi Yanshu, and Longjing.

Starting from the small bridge across Jiuxi Road, we walked through Jiuxi. The starting point was quite high, and the recorded time was at 14:30 when tourists were already flocking.

We walked by the stream, with the tea garden on the left and the stream on the right. The tea trees were lush, and the stream murmured. Birds flew from outside the mountain to the forest stream, repeating the cycle. We embraced from left to right, passing the tomb of Chen Sanli and Chen Hengke's father and son for a while, and passing through Lin Haiting. Lin Haiting is just a roadside resting place, an insignificant small landscape, while the tomb of Chen Sanli and Chen Hengke's father and son is a holy place to mourn. Chen Sanli's family, who came from the Phoenix in Xiangxi, as well as his ancestor Chen Baozhen (his father), are unparalleled national scholars, all of whom are great treasures of the country. We regret that we missed out.

After passing the tomb of Chen Sanli and Chen Hengke, we also crossed a small bridge and Jiuxi returned to our left side. Speaking of the feeling at this moment, with the surrounding scenery and tourist activities, everything becomes vivid and lively. Our own home is walking on a straight path, while many others can go down to the creek, go deep into the tea garden, and pursue the ultimate of greener grass. We are too macroscopic, and our vision is far from the subtleties of the glans. It's not me who picks up things, it may be you who lost your soul.

Above, there are two tracks on the Shuilu Mountain Road. As the water flows downwards, Jiuxi River yearns for Qiantang; When one reaches a high place, it is the Yunxi Bamboo Trail. The great love of a true hermit is not afraid of floating clouds blocking his eyes, only because he is on the highest level.

Ahead is Jiuxi Yanshu. I rushed to the front and checked in. The scattered formation of ping, ting, and zhang continued one by one, and I followed suit and also checked in. At the end of spring and the beginning of summer, the peak of the smoke tree in Jiuxi is also surrounded by green mountains and red leaves. However, the green mountains and red leaves here are far from being dyed to the point where all the layers of forest are dyed.

Ping, Ting, and Zhang were casual and focused on walking along Qianlong Road towards Yangmeiling. I stopped the dementia on this road and helped to clear it. We are heading towards Longjing. The road to Longjing is not a natural extension of Jiuxi Road, and requires taking the left side road, the Xishan Trail. From this, it can be seen that Ping, Ting, and Zhang's passionate detours are understandable.

Jiuxi Yanshu - Longjing, the entire road is a pedestrian walkway with streams and ravines crisscrossing, and cooking smoke can be seen rising without the noise of cars and horses. As we walk, taking photos is necessary.

Character section:

There is a well-known poem called "Guan Ju": Guan Ju Jiu is on the island of the river. A graceful and graceful lady is a good match for a gentleman.

The Qing Dynasty merchant recited the poem "The Phoenix Seeks its Phoenix": The phoenix returns to its hometown, exploring the four seas in search of its phoenix. When I haven't met you yet, I have nowhere to go. How can I realize that I have risen to this hall!

Let's not talk too much about anonymous names. Those with names and surnames are like Zhuo Wenjun and Sima Xiangru. In today's era, time travel is everywhere, and Zhuo Wenjun and Sima Xiangru, dressed in Hanfu, can keep up with the times and create a modern reality version.

Father and son, this is not only a kind of family bond, but also a kind of companionship, various forms of growth, such as on the flat ground, and even more so on the small steps. The child in the photo, under the gaze of his father, took the first, second,..., and fifth steps with determination, all the way to the enchanting shore.

In addition to father and son, there are also many beautiful men and women walking in the footsteps of Ding Bu.

Animal and poultry section:

A corgi can't walk with short legs, so he can only lower his body and wade through the stream, still enjoying it.

The other one is corgi. Corgi is walking on the road with high morale. The dog with wind direction, praise!

Landscape:

Nine Creeks and Eighteen Streams, with high mountains and deep forests, overcast days blocking the sun, and towering hills and ridges, reflect the scenery on both sides. From the smoke trees in Nine Creeks to Longjing, there are mostly uphill slopes, with long and obstructed paths. On one side, Nine Creeks occasionally backflow and overflow with water, and the public has built a small step to facilitate travelers.

A Jiuhong Pavilion, symbolizing Jiuxi, is built on the stream in Shanyang, where many tourists rest. We did not follow and rest here, but continued to climb the mountains and wade through the water. I took a path through thorns and thorns, going through countless hardships. I am amazing, my ping, my ting, my zhang, and my self.

The beautiful scenery awaits us, like a mirror, who love beauty, but we are too tired of our muscles and bones and too careless of our fleeting moments, which is a small disappointment.

Tea drinking section:

At 16:00, we arrived at Longjing Village. Finally arrived at Longjing Village, I want to drink tea! The planned Longjing Wencha is about to start. When searching for nearby tea houses on Ting, the top ranked one is Yuyang Pavilion.

How do we drink tea on the outdoor platform of Yuyang Pavilion, which is the second highest in the upper floors? Sitting steadily, Lu Yu advocated for a clear drink. Zhang had to work hard again to adjust the temperature of the hot water bottle to be suitable for drinking. Tea is of no high or low value, and its taste is precious. Everyone sits around and sips Longjing tea, which is said to be the best Ming Dynasty tea with the fragrance of new tea. However, the appearance presented in the glass cup is that there are buds and leaves, and the leaves are not small, making it feel like it is not a special level like a lotus heart flag spear. When we taste tea in the pavilion and move to the scenic cup, it doesn't take much time. From fine tasting to drinking in large sips, it only takes half an hour.

At the ten mile entrance and exit of Longjing, it can be considered as the end of our Jiuxi walk. We have to explore another place: the Three Temples in Tianzhu.

Walking for three days

From Longjing to Shangtianzhu Faxi Temple, we made an appointment for an online ride hailing service. There were too many people and too few cars, so even though we kept giving tips and adding money, we waited for a full 20 minutes. While waiting, we unexpectedly encountered a bus, 1314, which was a bit romantic. Hangzhou's bus also came and unexpectedly used 1314 to connect Liulang Wenying, Nanping Evening Bell, Yuhuwan, Maojiabu, Lingyin Temple, Sanshengshi, Yunxi Zhujing, and Songcheng, redefining 1314's happiness with romance.

Approaching evening (18:00), we arrived at the Faxi Lecture Temple in Shangtianzhu, which is the first inspiration dojo for folk Guanyin. We did not enter the temple gate, only left a photo.

Faxi Lecture Temple - Lingyin Temple, a nearly 3000m Bodhi Road, we hiked to the front 1200m, Faxi Lecture Temple - Fajing Zen Temple. On the journey to Tianzhuxiang City, it was secluded, far and slightly hidden, clean and dust-free. Our view was full of merchants, tea shops, and framed windows, all of which were elegant and beautiful. If you were interested, the shop would come one by one, which can be said to be one shop, one scenery; As we continue our journey on the trail, like the exploration of the hustle and bustle of the city, we either accompany the gurgling water, or pay our respects to the ancient trees of the forest, reciting Wang Guozhen's small poem: mottled and sparse shadows, drunk horse walls, swaying leaves, reminiscing about the past, blue stones still remember the past, this question has no more young man. How many springs and autumns in life, cold kisses and love, when we look back, life is also a beautiful scenery step by step.

The dusk is getting heavy and I'm a bit hungry. Let's take a photo collection and feed it to myself.

In front of us was the Fajing Zen Temple. At first glance, the Buddhist gate was tightly closed, and we had a panoramic view on the small bridge across the river.

Fajing Zen Temple - Fajing Temple, a 500m path, after passing by, there is a feeling of regret for meeting each other too late. By chance encounter and the accompanying mental leap, we have become longing for each other day and night.

The leisurely cloth clothing shop in operation, the wishful thinking light food shop, the three kilometer leisure club, and the joyful coffee bar, we all want to take a stroll around each shop, and we only take a glance at each shop. Where has time gone? Time has only approached dusk from dusk.

The Fajing Temple in San Tianzhu has arrived, and we have let go of Fayun Ancient Village. Among us, I just checked in at the Sansheng Stone Tea House. The fate of the past, present, and future lives determines the three lives. My intuition far surpasses the romance of the bus 1314. I was a little stunned and quickly rushed to the next section of the road.

The next section of the road should be the last section of our three days of walking today, from Fajing Temple to Qingchun Park Gate, at a distance of 1200m. Ping and I walked in front, while Ting and Zhang fell behind. When we slightly widened the distance, the beauty generated would instantly remind Ting and Zhang to change gears and accelerate their pace.

Qingzhu Tangka has passed, a tea house has passed, Fuluoyuan has passed, Yingzhu Restaurant has passed, asked Xiaoguan has passed, some coffee has passed, Zhuli has mixed, Zhizhu Suguan has passed, Night White Cafe has passed, tea has been consumed for a while, the past will eventually pass. In front of us, Qingchun Park Gate has arrived at 19:00!

On the Bodhi Road of the Three Heavens, with so many restaurants, why did we choose Qingchun Park Gate when we found a place to eat? There are no secrets, they are all conspiracies, and the answer is automatically revealed. This is the final stage of the entire loop from planting to pulling grass that we are about to complete. When we enter, it is considered complete.

After a little sorting, we sat down at the table next to the window and ordered the order. Food was the most important thing for the people. Ping and Zhang focused on the classic black truffle Fried Rice+fried dumplings+dry picked Wonton+Chongqing sesame noodles; Ting wants to eat meat, but Sichuan style vegetarian restaurants do not offer it. To put it second, quinoa pepper and sesame tofu, golden bamboo shoots stewed with winter melon; My order is sweet and sour West Lake lotus root, dried mushrooms; And the Red Cabbage Head Warm Salad, an unheard of new product, is recommended by the shop owner.

This extremely simple and elegant meal was quite ceremonial. Ting and I really liked it. It was perfectly matched and perfectly palatable, but Ping managed to taste the spiciness he shouldn't have. Zhang noticed that the noodles had gone wrong, but the flaws didn't hide the truth. We all accepted it!

After the meal, it was already late at night, and the ride hailing car took us four back from the West Lake to the Yazhi Mengxi Villa. There were fifteen bridges on the West Lake night, and the starlight didn't ask passersby.

The above picture shows a ray of starlight projected from Yazhi Mengxi Villa at 21:00, which can accompany us to sleep and dream!

A few more hours passed, and the night gradually turned pale, becoming chaotic and blurry. Birds chirped, and the ancient trees in the shade of the mountains revealed their shapes. Later on, the sun slowly followed out.

A new day has begun!

The Elegant Dream Creek Villa we stayed in was once the official residence of Chen Bulei, an old friend of the Republic of China. In the cracks of time, we may encounter some old things, old objects, sitting in front of a desk, suddenly appearing. We need to listen attentively and experience with our hearts.

On a sunny day, we woke up for a walk in the morning and couldn't avoid the tomb of Mr. Chen Bulei. At 7:30, Ping, Ting, Zhang, and I stood in front of the cemetery, mourning. A cloth robe, a generation of literary courage, surpassed life and death. It's not scary, but there will be a continuation. His beloved little daughter, Lian'er, walked the same way. This is truly regrettable, lamentable, and terrifying!

We cannot bear too much historical truth, it takes a long time, and we wait for our mood to slowly calm down before returning to the hotel for breakfast.

A friend who has stayed in before left a message: Hotel check-in will be stunning, and hotel breakfast is more unique! Okay, let's search for a unique feature among them!

The restaurant, which we all saw yesterday, has four seats in the room. The hotel provides self-service, such as Congee, milk, tea, coffee, and related side dishes; Hotels also have special offerings, which may be what is called a specialty. What tableware and plates can cover, including meat and vegetable combinations; The combination of thickness and thinness, this one has; Dry and thin pairing, this one has; Color matching, this is even more! Color, fragrance, pyramid, the entire set of healthy dietary guidelines is being practiced by us, as shown in the figure:

After finishing breakfast, we strolled around the Dream Creek Villa again and found an inconspicuous mountain path next to Building 3. An elderly person with white hair claimed that it would take half an hour, and after climbing the top, we could have a bird's-eye view of the Qianjiang River. We didn't try it.

The moss marks on the green steps, the grass enters the green curtains, and there are Hongru in conversation and laughter. There are no Bai Ding in communication, and the immortal demeanor and low-key luxury are no more than Liu Yuxi's shabby house. We can feel the pursuit of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism in the bones of Mengxi Mountain Villa. If poor, one can be alone, and if successful, one can help the world. On a sunny day, those who do not see the poor can see the successful, and the great Peng rises with the wind in one day, soaring up 90000 miles.

Let's continue, under the sky and clouds, amidst the lush forests and bamboo groves, Building 1 has four uneven walls. What we can see is a side door, with stone steps in front of the door, which are quite extensive, with a width of more than one foot. The upper platform is adorned with stone lions guarding the courtyard on both sides of the wooden door, and the gatehouse supported by eaves columns is not swept away by falling leaves. The green vines are already old. We haven't seen anyone in this building for a long time, only a group of idle people do odd jobs. Occasionally, Tang Deng and the nearby chairs and stone benches can testify.

It's already 9:00, so let's stop here. Today's plan is still to walk and build new and old facilities. Yanggong Embankment (Guozhuang, Quyuan Fenghe) and Baisha Embankment are old sites, while Qianjiang New City or Tianmu Village are new creations.

Walking on Yanggong Embankment in Guozhuang

We are going out and have basically formed a routine. At 10:00, the ride hailing service completed our order to Guozhuang as scheduled. After thanking you, take a photo of Guozhuang.

Knowledge tip: Guozhuang is one of the private gardens in Hangzhou, located by the Wolong Bridge on the Yanggong Embankment of West Lake. It is adjacent to Quyuan Fenghe to the north and is known as one of the four famous gardens of West Lake along with Liuzhuang, Wangzhuang, and Jiangzhuang. Originally named "Duanyou Villa", it was built in the 33rd year of the Guangxu reign of the Qing Dynasty (1907). The original owner was Song Duanfu, a silk merchant from Hangzhou, hence the estate is commonly known as Song Zhuang. During the Republic of China period, it was resold to the Guo family, a native of Fenyang, and thus renamed as "Fenyang Villa", commonly known as Guo Zhuang. The entire Guozhuang is divided into two parts: "Jingbiju" and "Yijingtiankai". "Jingbiju" is the courtyard part, which is a place for the owner to stay at home and receive guests. The indoor decoration is exquisite and elegant, with an antique flavor. "One mirror opens in the sky" is a delicate garden with water as its theme.

Garden tycoon Chen Congzhou, also known as Ziweng, participated in the entire renovation of Guozhuang, leaving behind his pen and ink "Record of the Renovation of Fenyang Villa". Guozhuang then returned to it with the Ziweng Pavilion to inform the public and commemorate it.

We can all see the carved text of the Fenyang Villa at the main entrance, but if we want to go further, we will have to spend some silver, not much, at a fixed price of 10 yuan.

It truly deserves to be a famous garden in West Lake. The first place we enter is Jingbiju, which is the main residence of Guozhuang. From the corridor on the north side of its main residence, we can see the lotus pond (also known as Huanchi), where spring and scenery are beautiful and pleasing to the eye. Among them, the most eye-catching are Jingsu Pavilion and Liangyi Pavilion. Following the winding corridor along the trail, we detour further to the main and guest rooms, where the horizontal plaque reads "Fragrant Snow Divides Spring".

In the Fragrant Snow Spring Hall, the four of us scattered in the bustling crowd of Guozhuang.

I went to the Wind Inviting Moon Pavilion next to West Lake, which was like a pavilion with an open room facing the lake. It was right in front of the Yidi Bridge, one of the six bridges on the Sudi River. It was real, and after enjoying the spring scenery on earth, I sat in a chair by the lake, just as Ping also stepped into it, waiting to sit and enjoy the scenery of the lake and mountains. Unexpectedly, there were pleasurable reminders from the waiters, and we enjoyed the consumption of tea. Ping and I, unaware of it, suddenly felt a chill in our hearts.

Guo Zhuang is too close to West Lake, and the owner of the garden was clever in creating it. They built many bamboo fences, low walls, door openings, and sparse windows, which separated Guo Zhuang from West Lake and preserved his unique personality; On the one hand, it leaves a great deal of room, allowing one to embrace the spring dawn of the Su Causeway in the ten scenic spots of West Lake, and listen to the lingering lotus and rain in the courtyard. The relaxed and relaxed scenery is beyond everyone's control.

When we met Ting and Zhang again, it was already the Wobo Bridge opened in a mirror day.

In the future, we will take a detour around the Mirror Pool and gradually pass by the Rumu Spring Wind Pavilion (now known as the Wind Reflecting Moon Pavilion), the Cuimi Corridor, the Ziweng Pavilion, the Tingbu (Ding Bu), and the Ningxiang Pavilion. However, at the half pavilion Ziweng Pavilion, we stopped for a moment and saw the plaque in the pavilion with the inscription "Wind Reflecting Moon". Suddenly, a thought arose. If it weren't for Ziweng Lao, there would still be another spring in Guozhuang today? Thinking about it, he followed the original path and left Guozhuang.

Walking on the Yanggong Embankment, the Wind and Lotus of Quyuan

After leaving Guozhuang, it was still Yanggongdi. As we walked on Yanggongdi, we started from Wolong Bridge at 10:40. Setting aside a long section of pink walls in Guozhuang, we entered the green poplar shade inside Yanggongdi.

In the shade of green poplar trees by the West Lake, a wetland ecology, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, we are carried by nature for a journey. Standing straight is the cedar, dancing is the willow tree, with few flowers, but the green shade is always present.

In the depths of the forest, winding streams flow far and wide, from Maojiabu and Zhaogong Embankment, right under the small bridge we encountered. Silently, we slowly blend into the nearby West Lake. We see the ebb of the tide, but not the rise. If it were in the Huangmei season, the abundant streams may have a different scenery. At the beginning of the stream, swimming fish ride in the air, we encounter many waterfowl, and the sound of frogs is unparalleled.

We used the camera to focus on Changting Short Post and on Sudi West Lake.

The real ones on camera are Xixiangting and Zhanbi Tower, as well as the dining and dining areas by the West Lake. This is still on Yanggong Embankment, but it is already the boundary of Quyuan Fenghe.

Knowledge tip: Quyuan Fenghe, formerly known as Quyuan, is located at the point where Jinshajian (the largest natural water source of West Lake) flows into West Lake. During the Southern Song Dynasty, there was a palace distillery where lotus flowers were grown on the lake surface. In the cool summer breeze, the fragrance of lotus and wine wafts around, making visitors feel refreshed both physically and mentally. Even if they don't drink, they get drunk. The wind and lotus in Quyuan have become one of the "Ten Scenic Spots of West Lake".

Our horizon: While sailing on West Lake, one can vaguely discover the Leifeng Pagoda behind it; In the shade of green poplar trees, facing the maple and maple trees that turn red in late spring and early summer.

In front of the building is the Southern Song Dynasty Imperial Liquor Culture Workshop. Amidst the atmosphere of numerous tea masters around us, the flag of liquor culture stands alone. What we can see is not the high-end Maotai, but the unique cultural characteristics of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions of Huangjiu. The brewing process is familiar to us, with flower carvings (wine jars) - steamed rice - spread rice - drop jars - rake opening - pressing - frying wine - setting jars. Finally, we made an advertisement: National Liquor 1959, which became famous!

It has been verified that the Qu Yuan Fenghe Qu is the Qu of Jiuqu, which has been deeply bound to wine for a long time. Since Emperor Gaozong crossed south, Qu Yuan was the original site of the official imperial wine workshop, and the quality of the original wine produced during this period was not only exclusively supplied but also exclusively supplied.

While walking, passing by the former site of the Imperial Academy, a ghost hit the character "蠺", which immediately stumped us heroes. We tried our best to guess, guessed recklessly, and said everything, but only the silkworm was missing. Still uneducated, sweaty face!

We are really sweating. On a hot day, Ping, Ting, and I are resting outside the building on Beishan Street- What about Zhang- Just now, where did it go? As he spoke, Zhang appeared from the supermarket in front and approached, sharing his refreshing cold drink with us.

Leave a few more photos, the lotus leaves of the fields in the Quyuan Wind Lotus, and the Jade Belt Bridge of the Quyuan Wind Lotus.

It's already 11:40 and it's time for lunch. The building outside is just my option, but it's an exclusion for ping, ting, and zhang. Here's a reason: if you feel derogatory, you don't like the stinky face of a state-owned store. Seeing it rise high, feasting guests, collapsing and forming beams, what a great hatred!

Walking on Baisha Embankment

To get to the point, Hangzhou is truly a city suitable for walking. We enjoy walking, walking in Jiuxi, Tianzhu Temple, and Yanggong Embankment. These are all places where we can walk. The ideal pace is to be diligent, lazy, free, or exiled, under the sun, in the warm wind, walking alone, accompanying, perceiving reality and virtuality, and enjoying the present and the past. During walking, one will perceive and often perceive insignificant things. While walking, one can also think. I think, so I am. The radiance of the soul sprouts in the moment of the heart. At this moment, walking is the heart walking, inspiring the mind and activating thinking. On the one hand, walking in this world, and on the other hand, getting rid of this world. Even if one day, vision leaves us and hearing betrays us, we still like to walk!

We walked over the Su Causeway, we walked over the tomb of Su Xiaoxiao, and from the moment we crossed the Xiling Bridge, we began walking on the Baisha Causeway.

"To the north of Jia Ting in Gushan Temple, the water surface is initially flat and the clouds are at the bottom. Several early warblers compete for warmth from the trees, but whose new swallows peck at the spring mud? The scattered flowers are gradually becoming charming, and only shallow grass can have no hooves. The most important thing is that the lake is not flowing enough to the east, and the green willows are hidden in the white sand embankment." This was written by Bai Juyi to Gushan, to the white sand embankment, to future generations, and also to himself after the completion of the white sand embankment. The original isolated mountain was like the Penglai Palace in the center of the water, independent from the world. With the support of the West Ling Bridge on the Baisha Embankment, it gradually transformed from a local landscape to a popular market for fame and fortune. From the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties to the Republic of China, throughout history, celebrities emerged in large numbers, and historical sites gathered. What emerged was truly as we saw and heard with our own eyes while walking. It was as ancient as the Fanghe Pavilion in Lin Bu of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the tomb of Su Manshu of the Republic of China in recent times. There were more than a hundred places with names and surnames. Indeed, the isolated mountain is not isolated!

Lin Bu wrote two regulated poems about the small plum blossoms in the mountain garden. Among them, the sparse shadows slant horizontally and the water is clear, the faint fragrance floats on the moon at dusk, occupying all the charm without revealing any color. This is the posture of the plum blossoms, no wonder Lin Bu regards them as his wife. And Su Manshu, a rare figure in the Republic of China, has the ability to write ten poems. He remembers the spring rain and the eight foot Xiao at the head of the tower. When will he return to watch the Zhejiang tide? What bridge of cherry blossoms do you step on when your sandals are broken and no one knows? Breaking off the swans and geese, with ups and downs in life, yet never falling into the ambition of the blue clouds.

Our path is at the southern foot of Gushan, from the tomb of Qiujin, Yu Yue's Yu Tower, Xiling Seal Engraving Society, Louwailou, Wenlan Pavilion, Zhejiang Provincial Museum, West Lake Art Museum, to Pinghu Autumn Moon, where we enter Xiling Seal Engraving Society and Louwailou Main Store.

The first time I met the Xiling Seal Engraving Society was when I met Sha Menghai. In the calligraphy industry at that time, inscriptions must be called Ren Zheng, and the first person to teach books was Sha Menghai. I once traveled to Hangzhou and always passed by the Xiling Seal Engraving Society with just one stroke. Now, Ping and I can enter the door. We have passed through the lotus pond and the cypress hall, and the path we have taken is only in front of the isolated mountain, without entering the front mountain, let alone climbing the isolated mountain. But Ting and Zhang remained stranded outside the door, gazing at the beautiful scenery of West Lake.

The barrier of just one door, as shown in the picture, represents the realm of Ting and Zhang; Below, ping and my height.

A good-looking skin wants to get married, but an interesting soul is forming a society. In 1904, Ye Weiming, Wu Yin, Ding Fuzhi, and Wang Fu'an founded the Xiling Seal Engraving Society, known as the Four Heroes of the Creation Society. "At the beginning, Ye Ziming, Wu Ziyin, Ding Ziren, and Wang Zishouqi gathered by the lakeside, feeling the annihilation of the School of Seal Engraving. They planned to create several bows on the side of the Shufeng Pavilion in Xiling, and build three or two thatched huts. The wind and rain were gloomy, and the music, stones, and gold were auspicious. Only seal printing was sought, and the society was called Xiling because of its place name." In 1913, Xiling Seal Engraving Society celebrated its tenth anniversary. According to Zhang Jingxing's "Preface to the Colleague Record of Xiling Seal Engraving Society": "This spring, we will resume our former site and hold a commemorative event at the Orchid Pavilion, showcasing exquisite calligraphy and painting, promoting elegance and celebrating Chinese and foreign gatherings. The event has attracted hundreds of people, but how prosperous is it? It can be traced back to the establishment of our society, which has been here for ten years." Wu Changshuo was recommended as the president. According to the "Establishment of Xiling Seal Engraving Society": "The president will recommend Chang Lao.". Hu Zongcheng wrote "Records of Xiling Seal Engraving Society", and the first president, Wu Changshuo, personally wrote the book.

The subsequent presidents of Xiling Seal Engraving Society were Ma Heng, Zhang Zongxiang, Sha Menghai, Zhao Puchu, Qigong, and Rao Zongyi. After Rao Zongyi passed away, he only had an executive president, and the current executive president is Liu Jiang.

Ping and I were very interested, and as we moved towards the isolated mountain gate, Ping suddenly stopped short. We were in urgent need of a spare post, so we searched all over the mountain and went to find the main store on the other side of the building.

The main store of Louwailou is located in the leisure center, crowded with tourists. It is already 12:20, and Louwailou will no longer be our lunch option. When we meet, the four of us head towards the Baisha Embankment in the east of the lake. The photos we take include the Zhejiang Provincial Museum, West Lake Art Museum, Baochu Pagoda, and a few scenic spots.

The bridge was broken when we walked across it. The bridge didn't stop our lunch. After discussion, we went to the third sisters of Hangzhou in Wulin Gate by online taxi hailing. The online wind rating was the first. However, the restaurant had already put on the exemption card for the diners of Wuyang. We can only have a casual meal of Hangbang noodles nearby. Although our friends have recommended it, it's not our wish after all.

After the meal, we called a ride hailing car to go to West Lake Tiandi's famous Starbucks. At 14:00, we started drinking American coffee. Ping, Ting, and I were incubating the air conditioning in the store. After the hot spot, it felt a bit cold, so we moved to another spot. zhang， Walking outdoors, we have become people who observe our interactions in silence.

You can't take away the crimson on my face, it's as vigorous as a river flooding; You can't take away my energetic soul, it drives you crazy like a feather. Reading the previous paragraph of Zwittaeva's poem, it feels like a blazing flame, like stars, like roses, slowly giving birth to poetic light!

Don't forget your original intention, get nervous. It's time to calm down at 16:00. After taking the last sip of coffee, we'll call a taxi and head back to Yazhi Mengxi Villa.

After resting for an hour, we decided to make up for the lunch gap. Ting forwarded a recommendation from a local in Hangzhou: Tiger Brother's private dish on Tiaobroom Bay near Nanxing Bridge. Without hesitation, we brought it to our door, called for a car, and left.

18: At 00, the car arrived at Tiger's private restaurant. We were located in the lobby on the first floor, and the menu was written on the blackboard, some of which still had traces of changes. We ordered: Malantou, wild bamboo shoots, soy Stinky tofu, dried fish and pork. What about fish? Boss's recommendation: Dried vegetables with spicy fish. Plus five years of Chen Huiji Mountain.

-Malan's head cleared his mouth- What wild bamboo shoots cannot remove is astringency. Adding some pickled vegetables to remove astringency is possible- Stinky tofu tastes salty and fresh. What about the stink? We immediately rewrote the dish name: edamame with tofu- Fish and fish braised meat, with the taste of a wealthy restaurant on Huanghe Road back in the day, this dish was the earliest CD.

The dried vegetables recommended by the boss's wife, the spicy fish, tasted earthy and fishy; Besides fish, Zhang's feeling for dried vegetables is that they have changed their vest to olive vegetables, no doubt!

The Kuaiji Mountain, which has been aged for five years, is palatable, and we did not support the wall.

Night tour of Qianjiang New City, contemplating

After drinking and eating, our next attraction was Qianjiang New City. In the blink of an eye, we arrived at the Citizen Center of Qianjiang New City by ride hailing. At 20:00, our car was parked at Hangzhou Raffles Plaza on Xinye Road. The first impression of getting off was that this may be an important landmark building that rewrites the skyline of Hangzhou city.

This is Qianjiang New City, which is also Hangzhou, but what we see is completely different from the surrounding area of West Lake. Perhaps this is the requirement for inclusivity, complementarity, and diversity in the central city. The architecture has abandoned the original low-key and loose pastoral style, and advocates for an intensive and high-end modern style. It has a large-scale sales mall, intelligent office buildings, high star city hotels, one-stop public service centers, transportation can be extended to late at night, and restaurants and bars can be available all time.

We follow Xinye Road all the way south, along the Life Insurance Building, New City Citizen Center, Raffles Square, Dikai International Center, Marriott Hotel, Hangzhou Grand Theater, Sandship Olay, and Hangzhou International Convention Center. All of these buildings are of high standard, large quantity, and fully intelligent. This aesthetic style is intentionally or unintentionally changing the current and future of Hangzhou's urban construction. We can wait and see.

From Xinye Road to Zhijiang Road, we have reached the end. We stand on the riverbank outside Zhijiang Road, and the Qiantang River surges in the night. On the other side, there is another riverside new city with dazzling lights, and the most eye-catching of all the main buildings is the Olympic Sports Center.

With so many new cities, Hangzhou is seizing new territories, expanding its urban scale, while retaining the leisure and livable state of West Lake, and accelerating its radiation to the surrounding areas. The continuous emergence of new cities in the surrounding areas also contradicts the operability of Hangzhou's concept of making life better. Hangzhou seeks the maximum benefit between development and balance. Of course, Hangzhou is also making trade-offs. The core urban area of West Lake is undergoing subtraction, known as reverse urbanization. We are delighted to discover the changes happening in Hangzhou.

Coming from the east, Hangzhou, which you like, may be a charming and picturesque backyard; From the west, what you like may be the many westernized masterpieces in big cities.

We walked further west along the riverbank, from the waterfront platform to the city balcony. There were not many accompanying tourists, but we occasionally saw a few pulling and flying kites. Ping likes the open geographical space here, I like the cultural and artistic venues here, Ting and Zhang like the quiet walkway here, the blushing moments of holding hands and looking out together.

Rose fell in love with the evening breeze by the river, too cold and clear, too turbulent, and all four of us fell in love with the human fireworks and lighting show at 20:30, too dazzling, too hasty!

After finishing the night tour of Qianjiang New City, we had an interesting conversation with the driver while taking a taxi back to Mengxi Mountain Villa. In the past few days, we have taken too many ride hailing services, and this driver is different from others. He has great eye contact, but he is hard to come by- Master, thank you for your hard work. Let's go to Mengxi Mountain Villa in Jiuxi. (We emphasized our tone in Jiuxi)- Shanghai guest, Haodi, Jiuxi, Mengxi Villa. (Master's signature response). We fastened the safety belt, and the car had already driven a long way, and soon it was elevated- All ride hailing services use navigation, don't you use it? (afraid that the driver won't recognize the road)- Those who drive ride hailing services are all outsiders, so they definitely need navigation assistance. (Local driver in Hangzhou)- Is business easy to do- A few days ago, the May Day holiday was better, but these days have become lighter again- The lockdown has finally passed- The rental during the lockdown was okay, and the company provided a backup. Just be alive- Hangzhou has developed very well in recent years, and the leaders in Zhejiang have achieved great success. Many of them have turned to Shanghai and went to the central government, which is really impressive. There is also Jack Ma who took down the bank- Hangzhou is the backyard of Shanghai. We are relatives, as the leaders say. (Gave us a glance between words) Compared with the big industry and business in Shanghai, Hangzhou has the Internet- Can this be compared to? One old, one trendy, we are too low. (Shanghai's state-owned tradition should be the best in the country, but the Internet is far from perfect. We can hardly count the takeout as one.)- Jack Ma is also suffering. It is difficult to control policies between state-owned and private enterprises, as well as between private and state-owned enterprises. A few years ago, stocks were also issued, but in the end, they were finally accepted by the Jade Emperor. In the blink of an eye, I saw the White Pagoda Park and the Six Harmony Pagoda- Master, report the license plate number- No need, you can enter the hotel during this time- Amazing! Master Hangzhou is the living map of Hangzhou, it's amazing!

During the conversation, the car stopped at the Yazhi Mengxi Mountain Villa. After a while, the master reversed the car for a short distance- Thank you, master- Didn't you lose anything? Okay, goodbye!

When we arrived at Mengxi Villa, it was already 21:30. We didn't rush back to our accommodation, but instead thought about a bowl of noodles in the hotel late at night. In the dining room of Building 3, we had a small bowl of hot tomato and egg noodles.

Ping and I usually don't sleep in. When we wake up at 6:20, it's already dawn. After washing up, Ping wants to go back to Shanghai in the afternoon, so he quickly goes to tidy up his clothes. I bring the door to my room and wait outside the hotel. During this time, I met Zhang and greeted him. With this bag of cigarettes, Zhang has wandered around for a long time. The early bird has now returned to the room where I stayed in Changge Xing.

It's my turn to take a stroll. A dog, a new guest from last night, was following the female lead behind, making a fuss- What a beautiful dog, what's its name- The female lead gave a name, very feminine. Princess Dog, but I didn't remember my name and was a bit crazy. I have been suffering from amnesia recently. I really suspect that it is the sequelae of COVID-19.

After leaving the hotel, the previous farmer held a large circular water sieve and walked towards Jiuxi. She placed the sieve in the rapids by the stream and washed it for a long time. I took a photo along with it.

Around 7:00, when we finally arrived at ping, the two of us took a walk nearby.

Under the sunshine, by the creek and the winding mountain path, there is a layer of light mist with a bright color. In front of it, there is a large tea garden, filled with green oil and permeating the world with tender water. The tea trees planted in the garden are like horticulture, and they are extremely well maintained. This is a tea garden with owners, a treasure land of feng shui, and rain and dew. It is no wonder that Longjing is so nourishing with sound and color. It is only in the production area of Lion Dragon Cloud and Tiger Plum that it stands out and can be considered a masterpiece in the industry. We walked deep into the tea garden along the fields, rubbing our ears and ears with the tea gentlemen, whispering softly. This scene was earth shattering, and our character exploded, walking on the path of discovering miracles.

Of course, if there is a tea garden, there must be a tea house, and the supply side is closely related to the consumption side. What we see is that in tea gardens, under the shade of sun umbrellas, tea enthusiasts may gather together or be alone. Tea, especially good tea, is not lacking. Others have built buildings in the open space by the stream, with their signs capitalized with the word "tea". If it is larger in scale, it often also operates homestay catering, and tea drinks are secondary. We have noticed: Camphor Tree Forest Tea Garden, Kowloon Camphor Garden, Fengyi Tea House, and Manshe Creek Garden.

I left a message on my social media: Tea gardens are for tea farmers, tea houses are for tea customers. We travel in both directions, catering to our preferences, from before the Ming Dynasty to before the rain, from bud tea to leaf tea.

On the way back to Mengxi Villa, I answered Ting's phone and had breakfast at the hotel restaurant- If we lose time, we will arrive immediately.

The phenomenal breakfast will not be repeated anymore. After the meal, it is already 9:00. Today's plan is to have lunch at Weizhuang in the morning at Zhejiang University's Zhijiang Campus - Liuhe Pagoda - Baita Park - Yanggongdi, and return to Shanghai in the afternoon at Tianmu Village. It's just the scorching sun today, we must be really sunbathing.

From Mengxi Mountain Villa to Zhejiang University Zhijiang Campus, we walked along a section of Jiuxi Guiliu Qiantang. To avoid the sun, we walked in the woods.

The Zhejiang University Zhijiang Campus has arrived

Knowledge tip: The appointment process for Zhejiang University Zhijiang Campus must be made one day in advance, and only one time slot can be reserved for a single campus at a time. Bookable time slots for entering the school: 7:00-22:00 on weekdays, 6:30-22:00 on weekends and holidays; After a successful appointment, you can enter the designated campus through a pedestrian gate or in a commercial vehicle during the appointment period with your ID card or "Zhejiang University Pass" code, and cooperate with security personnel to conduct on-site inspections and commands.

We took a short walk on the slope of Shunyu Road, and at the end of the slope, there was a fence resembling a horse blocking fence. The gatekeeper stood, waving his hand to politely refuse our visit. On this trip to Hangzhou, we were destined to miss out on the university campus. We were rejected twice, once by Juezi China Academy of Fine Arts and once again by Juezi Zhejiang University. This embarrassment is too great. The strategy was not well implemented, and we were furious and slandered, but our appearance remained silent.

The path of university lies in clear virtue, being friendly to the people, and ending in the ultimate goodness. After understanding the material, one can reach the ultimate goal; after understanding the ultimate goal, one can have sincere intentions; after sincere intentions, one can have a positive heart; after a positive heart, one can cultivate one's own body; after a positive body, one can cultivate one's family; after a stable family, one can govern the country; after a stable country, one can govern the world. From the emperor to the common people, one always values self-cultivation. The Way of Great Learning is the first line of the Confucian classic Four Books and Five Classics, which clearly states the meaning of "Great Learning". It is important to speak in a subtle and profound manner, and to prioritize the life and death of the country, one should not avoid misfortunes or blessings. Will there still be an endless stream of traditional Chinese studies in today's universities? Will there still be such feelings and realm?

Walking in Baita Park

After passing through the Six Harmony Pagoda, Qianjiang Bridge, and White Pagoda Park one after another, you are right in front of me.

Compared to other attractions in the central urban area of Hangzhou, Baita Park is relatively niche. It is the endpoint of the cultural heritage of the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal and the starting station of the first railway in Hangzhou more than a hundred years ago.

Once upon a time, the Jiangshu Railway began construction and was opened to traffic. Outside the walls of Hangzhou, trains ran between the five railway stations of Zhakou, Nanxing, Qingtai, Genshan, and Gongchen. The southern starting point of Zhakou Station is now located in the Baita Park.

We are walking on the railway line, waiting by the green car, during which many past years gradually emerge from the dusty memories.

Have you ever remembered it? After school, walking a few kilometers is just to see the green trains running rapidly on the railway tracks. They can be steam engines, internal combustion engines, or electric motors, because Shanghai at that time did not have them!

Recalling the past, for the first time on a trip or by train, I intentionally bought a special slow train ticket. From Shanghai to Suzhou, I could stop at the station for 4 hours at a leisurely pace. It was strange that I had to stop at the Nanxiang marshalling yard for freight trucks and oil tankers. Why? Just to spend more time on the train.

The passing of time is like a fleeting memory, but we must return to the present moment! At present, we have left the green car and are walking on the standard gauge railway line. Passing through the gate, passing through the signal lights, passing through the station platform, passing through the railway track fork, there is a white tower in front of it. Although it is not eye-catching, it is the architectural remains of Liang Sicheng and Lin Huiyin who studied the Wu Yue Kingdom during the Five Dynasties period.

There is a white tower exhibition room that displays a 1:10 scaled model of the white tower, as well as more textual introductions. I have learned it in a superficial way, and it took me a lot of time to ping, ting, and zhang, delving deeply into it.

During the visit, a tourist asked, "Since the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal starts from here, why is there such a site in Shaoxing?"- The Grand Canal, in a narrow sense, refers to the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal, and in a broad sense, it covers the Jiangnan Canal, including the transportation of water in Shaoxing. Tourists have thoughts and insights.

It was scorching hot, so Zhang took the initiative to share some cool drinks about the summer in the indoor convenience store.

I forgot the time to leave Baita Park, but the ride hailing service took us to Yanggongdi. I remember it. At 10:50, our lunch was arranged at Weizhuang Yunlin Lake Hall. It was still early, so we walked at the flower harbor of Yanggongdi to watch fish.

Zhiweiguan Weizhuang is located in Huagang, surrounded by fish and horses, with a large plot of land. There are numerous independent restaurants and restaurants near the lake, which are named Zhiweiguan, Yunlin Lake Hall, Zhenhu Ju, Huazhou Meidi Xuan, Mengdie Tower, and Hongli Mountain Villa. Some of them are from the past, while others are from the present. We can see the four scattered lawns by the lake, the green silk and red leaves nearby, the lake and mountains in the distance, and some artificial landscapes of red men, green women in the distance. We all have a clear view.

I left a message on my phone: The bustle of people and the chirping of birds, after all, on the May day of West Lake, when people sleep, birds wake up.

11: 15. You can have lunch now. Next to the window of Yunlin Lake Pavilion, we can order; Ringing hands kneaded vegetables, wine brewed Mantou, Lin'an dried bamboo shoots, Zen Temple vegetarian assortments, shrimp paste diced, West Lake Fish in Vinegar Sauce, gold medal Longjing tea crisp, ordered rice, but did not drink.

Craftsmanship is unique, and the taste is passed down. Some are poetic and some are meaningful and flavorful. Master level cooking, even Michelin, cannot resist the market style service. The extreme contrast and the shortcomings of the barrel effect, even if there are many likes, ultimately become nothing.

-Can't you bear it- Shinobi? Someone must see for those who can't see and speak for those who can't speak!

We took a taxi back to Yazhi Mengxi Villa before 13:00 and checked out. We were quick, and customer service was even faster. Goodbye, everyone at Mengxi Villa.

Walking in Tianmu

Through the network of Mengxi Mountain Villa, Baidu has found the navigation path to Tianmu Village: Jiuxi Road Zhijiang Road Zhipu Road Zhipu Road Zijiang Tunnel Zijingang Road Tianmu Mountain Road ZiJinhua Road Gujing Lane Tianmu Village. The Zijiang Tunnel is the longest tunnel in Hangzhou.

After driving for at least half an hour through the long tunnel, we arrived at Tianmu Village at 2:00 pm. Let's first read Tianmu Village's introduction: Tianmu Village was designed by the famous architect Renzo Piano, with 17 individual buildings forming the main body of Tianmu Village. A central square called "City Lounge" was built around the middle, interspersed with a central garden, Shuijing Square, and a tree formation, cutting off from the outside while maintaining internal connections. The 11 sunken courtyards in the "City Living Room" were handmade by Japanese landscape master Junmei Kano and his team. Wind, water, and emptiness are the three Zen courtyard themes, running from north to south.

Outside West Lake, wandering in the sky, we take the elevator from the underground parking lot where we parked to the ground. The first scene is Shuijing Square, which stretches out in a limited space enclosed by a steel frame. As I lower my body, my horizon is infinitely extended and boundless. If we choose a theme, city and water, it is the nourishment that accompanies generations. Shuijing is like a clear mirror, and heaven and earth can learn from it.

To the north of Shuijing Square, there is another open space paved with gravel, with four or five chairs. This is a square, corresponding to a well proportioned building. Trees grow from the ground to the sky, tranquil, Buddhist, minimalist, and low in desire. A quiet breeze blows between the buildings.

A trapezoidal corridor attracted us to the basement level. As we walked, in front of 7 and 8 buildings, there were B1OCK billboards standing in front of 11 buildings. On the basement level, facing the Moon and Sixpence Cafe, as well as Jiangnan Buyi, we headed straight to Niaoya Bookstore.

This is the first Niaoya Bookstore in China to settle in Tianmu Village in October 2020. We often visit Niaoya Bookstore in Shanghai, even spending a whole day. The layout of the bookstore goes beyond many libraries, and new books are undamaged, with a wide range of content, as well as cultural derivatives and various types of toys for sale.

It's beautiful, beautiful. I took a photo and aimed the camera at the bookshelf and the wall decoration.

In the future, the four of us spent over half an hour searching for our own bookshelves in the bookstore, browsing through group books, ping, ting, and zhang's books, as well as adding tourism, design, literature, and history; And I, I don't know which bookshelf I was on, picked up a copy of "Daydreamer", placed it on my desk, put it on the storefront, and my phone wasn't idle. The picture I sent out was a little girl's reply: I love Naoko Takagi's picture book!

On the basement level, there are three Zen themed courtyards created by Junming Ye, featuring wind, water, and air. We are from south to north, and we see a tree in the courtyard with overlapping water and hanging walls, which is only two places. I have a fault tolerance and speculate that this tree is a courtyard of the wind that attracts the wind for its large size. The overlapping water and hanging walls should be a courtyard of the water world.

Muli Sanke Yinghua is also located near Niaoya Bookstore. As we passed by, this film industry innovator with diverse services. During the day, the film industry, and at night, the taverns and servers can even pinpoint precise locations, allowing viewers to watch movies while cooking, adapting to the greater, faster, and more convenient pursuits of newcomers to the new human race.

The future has arrived, and the business format is conservative and innovative. The material desires, emotions, and realm behind it are all deeply rooted in aesthetic thinking. People say that there are no problems here except for the large number of people. If there must be problems, it is me. The business field needs to adapt to the various temperament problems of me, although this is niche.

15: 00, we are going to bid farewell to the bookstore, bid farewell to the sky, bid farewell to Hangzhou. Before leaving, the four of us put together four sentences, which can be considered as a commemoration of our trip to Hangzhou: - The young man in life, - The young girl's heart is full of stars- A man is a youth until he dies, take a long photo by the Shuixi Bridge.

Niaoya Bookstore - Shanghai, there is a 200km road ahead that requires 3 hours of self driving. Let's set off!
