preambular

June is like a fairyland, fascinating. The endless expanse of green is surging. There are endless green and thousands of purple and blue lights. In June, the scenery is charming, with willows standing tall and the streams sparkling. In midsummer, there are always many dreams to realize. Climbing mountains, watching the water, and feeling the style of nature. This is a long-cherished wish of many people. To live near the mountains, live by the water, and blend with mountains and rivers. Standing in this season, there is always a feeling of agility and excitement. Lin 'an, less than two hours' drive from Hangzhou, is a summer resort.

Taihuyuan, known as the Jiangnan Little Jiuzhai, seems to have arrived at a paradise. The clear stream flows gurgling, surrounded by green trees, and a natural oxygen bar.

The thousand-year-old maple trees in Guanyin Village are lush and green leaves decorate the entire summer.

Lion Mountain, the secret realm of Longmen, stands proudly not far away.

The ancient houses of the Ming and Qing Dynasties in Guanyin Village, with white walls and black tiles, and the Hui-style buildings with horse-head walls are desirable.

Jiangnan small Jiuzhai beautiful Taihu source, natural oxygen bar fresh air

It takes less than two hours to drive from Hangzhou to Lin 'an by car. After walking into the forest and walking along the winding road. The road is surrounded by green trees on both sides and lush, and the stream is gurgling along the road. It is not as noisy as Hangzhou's urban area, but it has more tranquility. Driving slowly forward, it feels like you have come to a paradise with fresh air. As the car gradually drove into the embrace of green trees, the scenery became more and more beautiful. We were deeply moved by the scenery on the roadside, and we couldn't help but stop and stop along the way, because we were dazzled by the beautiful scenery in the mountains. Stuck my heart. So walking became a casual romantic and free experience of this beauty from Daran.

Finally, we arrived at the source of Taihu Lake, our first stop. There were many parking spaces at the entrance for convenient parking. It was nearly noon when we arrived here, so we simply had a meal before entering the scenic area. So we parked the car at the entrance of the scenic area and had lunch at a Jiangnan compound opposite the street. We ordered several local specialties. The fish was fried in the creek. It was quite fragrant, and the freshwater shrimp was also quite delicious. The goose meat was my favorite. The goose meat here is also a well-known local dish. It tastes very delicious, but the goose meat is not as tender as duck meat and is a little chewy.

Coincidentally, just as we were about to go for dinner, we encountered the special bus line from Hangzhou East Railway Station to Taihuyuan that had just opened today. We met several aunties getting off the bus. After asking, we realized that they were here in the morning to experience the bus. The round-trip ticket plus the ticket is 98 yuan, which is more convenient and cheaper than driving by yourself. This line also passes through several scenic spots along the route. If you don't have a self-driving car, this bus is the most cost-effective way to take it.

After dinner, we entered the scenic spot. It is called Hangzhou Xiaojiuzhaigou. It is a summer resort. Walking into the Taihuyuan Scenic Area, the air is fresh and the natural oxygen bar is fresh. This is the place where famous basketball player Yao Ming took wedding photos. After entering the gate of the scenic spot, you can see the transparent glass bridge on clouds in the scenic spot nearly 200 meters above the ground. After passing through the red lanterns, you will arrive at a platform. This is also a place for Internet celebrities to check in, with purple wisteria petals.

Follow the wooden steps up the hill. Walking on the bridge, staggering, looking across the rolling mountains, walking in the middle of the bridge, you can see the beautiful scenery on both sides. Take advantage of the weekend in the tree-lined forest to breathe the fresh natural air, bathe in the sun, and relax. How pleasant it is to be in this forest with beautiful scenery and beautiful mountains and rivers.

This transparent glass bridge, nearly 200 meters above the ground, is a popular check-in bridge for the scenic spot. Walking on it, the breeze is gentle, and after walking on it, it feels shaky. It is always scary. All the feet are transparent glass, which is for people who are afraid of heights. People who are afraid of heights are simply insane. When they see some tourists slow down when they walk over, their feet are shaking. The symbol "Source" stone that can also overlook the Taihuyuan Scenic Area is below. However, when you walk to the middle of the bridge, you can see mountains, trees and fresh air. Under the glass bridge, the stream is gurgling. Mountains and water, people and the bridge constitute a beautiful landscape painting.

Due to the YQ period, Lin 'an Culture and Tourism Bureau launched preferential activities. Through its official platform "Code Upstream Lin 'an", not only can you book B & Bs at half price, but you can also get 2 "Mo Shang Hua Blooming Lin' an Cultural Tourism Cards" per room. With the card, you can enter various paid scenic spots in Lin 'an without tickets. It was when I saw this discount that I booked a B & B in advance at Lin 'an upstream.

After making a reservation, you don't need to go to the B & B to pick up your card first. Just use the mobile phone number of the reservation, the ID number of the occupant, and the returned Captcha to generate the electronic version of Lin 'an Cultural Tourism Card bound to the ID card. You only need to swipe your ID card when entering the scenic area! No, we entered the Taihuyuan Scenic Area in less than 20 seconds with our cultural tourism card. We quickly entered the park by swiping our ID card, and we also saved tickets. It was so convenient. Thinking about it, I felt like I had earned it.

After crossing the glass bridge, we followed another road to Siyuan Corridor. There is a love tree that Yao Ming and his wife planted together when they came here to take wedding photos. It has also become a place for people to check in, with a beautiful environment. In Yunbi Tan, there are also water boats where children interact with their families. In the hot summer, it becomes a cool check-in place.

As I walked back, beside the stream, the word "source" I just saw on the transparent glass bridge appeared in front of my eyes. This word "source" is the iconic word of the scenic spot. The stream is gurgling and clear. On the cliff of Baizhang, the famous calligrapher Guo Zhong selected the topic of the "Dragon Whisper Wall". There are still many dragon binata growing on the cliff. I see many tourists coming here to check in. Whether it is the clear stream or the beautiful landscape environment, it is a good place to be close to nature. Especially in summer, it is a cool summer resort.

Guide Village, the most beautiful thousand-year ancient village, is like a beautiful landscape painting

As the car slowly winds up the mountain road, it reaches Lin 'an Guanyin Village, which is known as one of the most beautiful ancient villages in East China. Standing on the observation platform beside the flower field at the entrance of the village, you can see the rolling green and rolling mountains in the distance. The outline of more than 500 acres of terraced fields appears in front of us, forming a beautiful rural picture with the bamboo forests and green mountains in the distance. Guide Village is on the top of the mountain, and at the foot of the mountain is a large archway. The mountain road to Shangcun can be described as eighteen bays of mountain roads, winding mountains up, and the scenery along the way is beautiful and like a paradise.

Follow the entrance of the village and walk to the Tianchi Lake in Jinnan Village. Flowers and plants can be seen everywhere at the entrance of the village, and green plants can be seen everywhere. Several children are running happily with happy smiles on their faces. When I saw the buildings in the village, I found that they were different from our ordinary countryside. The houses here were all beautifully decorated and white. The roads in the unified planning village were clean and tidy. Follow the road to the pond in the village called Tianchi. The buildings built along Tianchi look very new. The house is surrounded by a large green village.

There are countless willows beside the Tianchi Lake, and the willow silk hangs low and graceful. Dance in the wind. The willow moves and shadows follow, like a young girl dressing in front of a mirror, or like a fairy with dancing sleeves. The villagers leisurely played cards next to the Tianchi Lake. What a pleasant afternoon. Every household in the village is like living in a villa. Every year in autumn, the village is full of tourists. That is because the village has more than 300 ancient trees, and there are many maple trees. In autumn, the maple leaves are red. It is the most beautiful season of the year. The entire village is surrounded by the beauty of maple trees. Just thinking about it, you can see how beautiful it is.

Follow the path next to Tianchi Lake to the most famous thousand-year-old maple tree in this village. Millennium Ancient Village Guide Village has "seven ancient"(ancient surnames, ancient ponds, ancient trees, ancient temples, ancient houses, ancient tombs). The first thing we want to see when we come here is the thousand-year-old ancient trees, or In your hometown, it is difficult to see ancient trees that are thousands of years old. If there are any, there are not many trees. However, there are more than 300 trees over 500 years old here, some over 700 years old and some over 1000 years old. The number is very rare. The villagers have also done a good job in protecting ancient trees. For generations, villagers here have lived with ancient trees, and ancient trees are inseparable from the lives of villagers.

There is a maple tree called the Golden Turtle Descending to Earth that is more than 700 years old. Because there is an extremely large maple pomegranate growing on the tree, when looking up, it looks like a toad climbing a tree, and when looking down, it looks like a turtle climbing a tree. It's really amazing. This is the first time I have seen an ancient tree. What's more amazing is that there are four maple trees connected together in the thousand-year-old forest behind it. There are four trees seen from the ground, and they merge together when they reach the trunk. The leaves of maple trees are lush and have grown luxuriantly over the years.

There is an ancient well next to it named Ancient Well Ripple. During the once-in-a-century drought in the past, the villagers relied on this well to withstand the once-in-a-century drought. Underground spring water has been gushing out continuously until now.

Arriving at the Qigu Square in Gunan Village, the most remembered, the typical Hui-style building appears in front of you with white walls and black tiles and tall horse-head walls. The white houses collide with the mountains, mountains, rivers and rivers, and the ancient trees next to them form a landscape painting. The red lanterns, exquisite wood carvings, and exquisite hollowing out make everything pleasing to the eye. It makes people indulge in the ancient architecture of the Ming and Qing Dynasties and makes people forget to leave.

In the ancient house of Guanyin Village under the blue sky and white clouds, you can see the local culture and customs, local customs, local food, and beautiful photos of different local seasons when you walk into the ancient house exhibition hall.

Stroll along the shady and beautiful village road to the highest observation deck in the village. All kinds of green plants are lush along the way, and you will arrive at a pavilion on the top of the mountain. This is a good place for tourists and villagers to take a walk and relax after dinner. Standing on the observation deck, the endless mountains in the distance and the winding terraces nearby form a beautiful picture. If you are in the village, I suggest you go here to see the scenery. The scenery of the entire village is so beautiful.

If you want not to miss every check-in point, it is recommended to get a free map at the Village Entrance Tourist Service Center, turn on your mobile phone and scan it, and you can see the entire Guide Village on your mobile phone. And you can also guide the village audio tour, which is really convenient. This way you won't miss every check-in point.

In the evening, there are performances on the stage in the village. The entertainment of the villagers is quite rich. Not only do various performances often take place, but also some performances with local characteristics are held in conjunction with local customs. If you come here to play just in time for a performance, you might as well stop and quietly listen to the wonderful singing of this thousand-year-old village. This is the most beautiful place every autumn. The rice is golden, ginkgo, yellow and maple leaves are red, so you will never be disappointed when visiting Guanyin Village in autumn.

Don't miss out on local specialties in Guanyin Village

We often say that the most important thing to live up to when traveling is the food and beautiful scenery. When you come to a place, don't miss the local specialty food. The most specialty food here in Guide Village is the food that is called eighteen bowls by the locals. After visiting the entire scenery of Guanyin Village in the evening, there was only the delicious food here that was not tasted, so dinner was settled in this village. Speaking of the local eighteen bowls of dishes, they were also the most famous dishes in the village. We chose a local restaurant with a great view to eat, overlooking the terraces. After a while, the Kung Fu dishes arrived. The first dish showed me something different from what I usually see. The whole old duck was served in soup with bacon, and local dried bamboo shoots. The duck meat is tender and delicious.

The local specialty bacon is cut thickly and tastes a little salty. The unique flavor of bacon comes to your nostrils. Stream fish are tender and tender. Green cakes, each with its own flavor. The old duck soup is heated after it is served. The steaming old duck soup tastes good after drinking a bowl. In the evening, the temperature on the top of the mountain is a little cold. Drinking old duck soup makes it much warmer.

Living at the foot of Lion Peak, Longshang B & B

Driving to Longshang Village in the evening, it was past eight o'clock when we arrived at Longshang Village. The B & B was booked in advance on the "Ma Upstream Lin 'an" website. The booked B & B will receive a text message and swipe your ID card directly when checking in. It is very convenient to show the information you received when booking. The Longshang B & B I booked is right next to Longshang Village Entrance Road. The lobby of the B & B was renovated from an old house, and a row of tall bookshelves is filled with books and porcelain.

There are three B & Bs in total, built on the mountains. There is also an infinity swimming pool next to the innermost building. It is also a very pleasant thing to swim here, especially in summer. There are all kinds of flowers planted next to the room, the view is good, it is quiet at night, and the bed is comfortable. I woke up in the morning to the chirping of birds. There is also a wooden house opposite the B & B. This B & B also belongs to. The wooden house is surrounded by trees and bamboo.

The B & B also sells some local specialties, various secret sauces, honey, etc. Buying some specialties here for family and friends is a good choice. It's cool to stay here at night, and you don't need to turn on the air conditioning. The summer resort is really not a name for itself.

Tianshi Beach in the secret realm of Longmen, controlled Stonehenge for hundreds of millions of years

"Longmen Secret Realm" is one of the key demonstration village scenic spots built in Lin 'an. It is a scenic spot composed of three administrative villages in Gaohong Town: Shimen, Longshang and Dashan. The Huizhou buildings of the Ming and Qing Dynasties in Shimen Ancient Village are intact; the cliffs of Shizi Mountain in Longshang Village stand high into the clouds; the glacier relics of Dashan Village are a magnificent sight, with an ecologically primitive and well-protected money pine protection base and thousands of acres of ancient terraces. After breakfast in the morning, he drove to Tianshitan, the first stop in the Longmen Secret Realm.

Tianshitan is about 1580 meters long. From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, there are scattered stones of all sizes. These stones look no different from ordinary stones, but they are different. The difference is that these stones are more than 100 million years old. The scale is unique in East China and very spectacular.

A long time ago, folk legends still said that these stones were missing when villagers wanted to build houses and build bridges. In order to help mortals, gods specially rushed over a group of pigs from heaven at night. When the group of pigs arrived here, they were discovered by a villager. When they saw so many pigs, large and small, they exclaimed loudly. Because someone violated the rules of heaven, these pigs turned into stones in an instant.

Millennium mountain terraces, shuttle between the countryside by small train

The car circled up the mountain road, and the road turned eighteen. We finally arrived at the top of the mountain. Looking around from an observation deck, the mountain terraces appeared in front of us. Rows of terraces were filled with various crops. In autumn, it will turn into a sea of rapeseed terraces. This place is green in summer. Under the blue sky and white clouds, it makes people feel relaxed and refreshed.

Walking to the other side of the terraced fields, there is a small train specially for tourists to experience. Take my beloved small train and set off in the countryside. The train master started the small train. The small train can also make a whistle and sit on it to the field. Driving to the other end, the small locomotive looks a little cute. If you bring children to play, I think the children will like the small train. Along the pastoral path, there are still wild flowers blooming in the fields, and the fields that you yearn for. From time to time, the fragrance of soil wafts in the fields. Looking around, you can see tender green grass everywhere, and feel the atmosphere of pastoral life here.

Saturday Oktoberfest event, carnival at night in the mountains

Oktoberfest activities are also held every Saturday. There is a beer street made of containers not far from Xiabei where I live. If you came here just in time to meet a Saturday, then at night you might as well come and participate in the Oktoberfest, have a drink, and let go. The container is painted red, there are many tables for tourists to sit on, and the flowers on the lawn are in full bloom. In this peaceful mountain village, it becomes a lively place at night. Blow the wind of nature, have a glass of beer, feel the atmosphere of the scene, and feel comfortable.

There are also some cute sales trucks next to it, selling drinks, delicious food, ice cream, etc.

This place is called a rock climbing town, a rock climbing resort that can be seen everywhere

Longshang Village is also a famous rock climbing town. Rock climbing murals and water climbing can be seen everywhere in the small village. Shizifeng just opposite is the most famous rock climbing resort. There are many rock climbing enthusiasts from home and abroad who come here to check in.

Lion Peak opposite is an excellent rock climbing site. Spanish rock climbing enthusiasts have come here before to challenge difficult rock climbing experiences.

Delicious food on the ridge satisfies the taste buds on the tip of the tongue

Lunch was eaten at Longshang B & Bs here generally have restaurants. Guests choose from the guests and rely on mountains to eat. The most famous thing here is dried bamboo shoots, and goose meat is also a must-eat dish. The goose meat is delicious and the meat is tender and tender, but the goose meat is more chewy. There are also potatoes baked with tender salt and braised pork, which are also my favorite foods. They look very fat, but they taste fat but not greasy, and they are easy to eat.

Lin 'an is rich in bamboo shoots, and you can see them at almost every meal. The delicious fish head soup tastes delicious.

Visit Shimen Ancient Street and experience the antique station-style distribution center

With pink walls and black tiles, high horse-head walls, the ancient Shimen Ancient Street is crowded with all kinds of vendors and city people who come here. People walk along the street and taste ready-made and sold Youdun fruits, popcorn, frozen rice candy, sesame slices and other snacks. Before leaving, they did not forget to bring some tofu, sesame rice, grass pork and other New Year goods with strong nostalgia.

Shimen Ancient Street was a mountainous station-style distribution center for the Hangzhou-Huizhou and Hangzhou-Suzhou Ancient Roads in the north countryside of Lin 'an during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Shimen Old Street was a place where merchants gathered. Along the street there were mountain goods shops, tea shops, inns, restaurants, wineries, medicine shops, tofu shops, iron-forging shops and other business formats, most of which had shops in front and back. In the past, at this time of year, mountain people from four townships and eight neighboring villages came here to buy New Year's goods. The ancient street is covered with various murals.

Go into the memorial hall to see some relics left behind in the past and listen to a touching story.

written in the end

Beauty is always short-lived. Lin 'an, which is less than two hours away from Hangzhou, makes me feel the beauty of the countryside. Taihuyuan in Xiaojiuzhai in the south of the Yangtze River is like coming to a paradise. The fresh air is bathed in a natural oxygen bar. The thousand-year-old tree in Jinnan Village is unforgettable. The beautiful Jinnan Village. I want the maple leaves to turn red in autumn, and the beautiful scenery will remain in my heart. The century-old ancient village, thousand-year-old terraced fields, ten-year-old steep rock walls, and billion-year-old Stonehenge are good places to escape heat in summer. These beautiful scenery of Lin 'an kept me in my heart, and it would be a surprise to go there next time.
