With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, every small holiday, major scenic spots are crowded with people. It's not until National Day again soon, and many people are probably planning where to go to play. Recently, they have discovered a good place, which is the hometown town located in Huzhou.

Yuanxiang Town is located in the core area of Miaoxi Xisaishan Scenic Area in Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province. With beautiful mountains and clear waters, and thousands of acres of tea gardens interspersed in the mountains, the picturesque scenery is definitely one of the best in Jiangnan. In order to turn this place into a pure land in the bustling city, Yuanxiang Cultural and Tourism Group has invested a total of 3 billion yuan, making it a comprehensive tourism and vacation town.

When I first arrived in my hometown town, I saw the distant green mountains shrouded in the misty rain of Jiangnan, the colors becoming more and more intense. The closer I got to it, the greener the trees became, emitting fresh air and refreshing the heart.

Breathing too much polluted air in the city, lingering in my lungs for a long time, makes me exhausted. The fresh air of the hometown town washed my lungs clean in an instant, and a refreshing sensation surged into my heart.

At the entrance of the small town is a scenic spot under the big trees. Looking at the three big trees at the entrance of the small town, one suddenly falls into memories of the beautiful childhood life. I remember there is also such a big tree at the entrance of the village. In my impression, it grows with lush branches and leaves, blocking the sky and sun.

Whenever people who go out to work want to enter the city, they always bid farewell to their families under the big tree, feeling reluctant to part with their hometown and longing for a better life. The big tree has already become the embodiment of the hometown, which worries the wanderer deeply.

The appearance of these three big trees made me regard it as my hometown before entering the original town. These three "native trees" are mainly composed of steel frame structures, which look majestic and powerful. The periphery is covered with green vines, forming a unique three-dimensional green shade, which not only brings a splendid visual feast to the eyes, but also brings a comfortable feeling of shade.

The "Hometown Tree" is like a big tree at the entrance of every Chinese village, welcoming every native person back home. This kind of humanized design originates from reality, and after artistic processing, it is both natural and full of beauty, perfectly in line with the overall design concept of "originating from nature and becoming art" in the hometown town.

Passing through the "under the big tree", you will encounter the second scenic spot of the hometown town, Yuanxiang Lake. It is the central area of the original town, with a lake surface area of about 9300 square meters. The original town, already located in Jiangnan, adds a touch of tenderness.

The play of lotus flowers and koi in the lake is full of poetic and picturesque elements. "In Jiangnan, one can pick lotus leaves, but the lotus leaves are in the fields. Fish play between the lotus leaves. Fish play east of the lotus leaves, west of the lotus leaves, south of the lotus leaves, and north of the lotus leaves." This ancient poem unconsciously surged into my heart.

Occasionally, white egrets perch and fly in the lake, filling the static picture with dynamic beauty. Peach and willow trees alternate on both sides of the lake shore. When the gentle breeze caresses, the water waves shimmer, and the fragrance of flowers wafts in the air, silently immersing itself in the skin. Willow branches dance, with a seductive posture, creating a scene of spring and scenery.

The lakeside bridge on the surface of the lake is very exquisite. Walking on the bridge and watching the calm lake surface reflect the scenery of the shore into the lake has a unique charm. The gentle breeze wrinkled the lake surface, creating layers of ripples. At this moment, the green mountains in the water shook freely like bird wings, making me feel like a dream.

How can this bridge be built in such a beautiful environment without poetry? Its name comes from the poem Huzhou written by Dai Yuanbiao, a poet of the Yuan Dynasty, that "mountains come out in groups from the sky, and water flows along the Taihu Lake Lake.".

On the right side of the lakeside bridge, there is also the White Egret Bridge, with a Guilu Pavilion on the bridge. The scene of "White Egrets flying in front of Xisai Mountain, peach blossoms flowing, and mandarin fish fat" vividly appears on paper.
The houses with pink walls and black tiles are built around the lake, and the scene of the people of Jiangnan "using the river as the street and boats as horses" slowly unfolds here. Standing by the lake are buildings such as the Hometown Hotel, a street of local cuisine, and a local specialty product exhibition and sales center. Food and scenery coexist, allowing us lazy people to save time searching for delicious food.

The design of the entire Yuanxiang Lake gives me a feeling of "being close to the mountains, water, and fields", while also carrying the delicacy of "small bridges, flowing water, and homes". However, the most wonderful thing is that I can also take a fairy tale train in the original lake, strolling through the scenery like a fairy tale world, which takes me back to the pond in my hometown.

Next, take the fairy tale train to the original farm area. If Yuanxiang Lake represents the tenderness of Yuanxiang Town, then Yuanxiang Farm represents the boldness of the town.

The racecourse is surrounded by mountains and has a beautiful scenery. Next to it is an old water wheel full of quaint atmosphere, spinning leisurely with the water. In such a soft and beautiful environment, riding a galloping horse with dust rising from behind, one can also experience the grandeur of the grassland.

Perhaps the rough man riding a horse had too much fun, which aroused the interest of the beautiful woman. Wearing sandals, I rode onto a galloping horse, not to mention BMW, Beauty, Qingshan, and the flying dust, which really had a unique charm. With just one snap, it was a big picture.

The little sister is really bold, many girls dare not ride horses. I originally thought she would just sit up and experience it, but I didn't expect her to really fly away, with beautiful visuals displayed in front of us. Seeing her smiling face, we knew we had a lot of fun playing.

There are also archery projects to experience at the original farm, which is different from indoor archery in the city. Here, all archery is done outdoors. Here, I draw my bow and shoot arrows, like an ancient general, with a majestic and imposing aura.

There are also attractions such as the Plum Blossom Deer House and Happy Fish Pond here. Walking here is like walking into a forest, allowing for intimate contact with nature.

Riding horses and archery bring a homecoming experience to those living on the grasslands, while experience areas such as stone mills, water mills, and agriculture bring a childhood dream experience to those living in agricultural areas. No matter which region of China tourists live in, this place can take them back to their roots.

In addition, Yuanxiang Equestrian Club is the first rural equestrian club in Huzhou area, which can provide visitors with a family style teaching experience, summer camp equestrian learning classes, parent-child fun competitions, children's equestrian competitions and other activities.

The original town not only has a rich variety of projects on the ground, but also cannot be outdone by aerial projects. Paragliders, hot air balloons, tree climbing, and so on have all fallen, bringing us a flying journey.

Friends who enjoy thrills and excitement should not miss out on paragliding. People like me who enjoy trying new things naturally won't miss out either. Long ago, Chinese people dreamed of having a pair of wings to fly towards the sky, and the appearance of gliders perfectly inserted a pair of wings for us.

For safety reasons, the staff of the scenic area will accompany you throughout the entire journey. We tourists just need to sit in the car according to the coach's arrangement, and he will kindly help us put on various equipment.

In the hometown town, there is a power glider, and I sit in the seat with the coach. With a series of actions by the coach, we quickly soared into the sky. Looking down at the hometown town from the air, all kinds of landscapes have lost their three-dimensional sense, leaving only a flat picture scroll, like a huge green blanket covering the earth.

Watching the scenery on the earth quickly escape my gaze, I realized what it means to be passionate at lightning speed. The pleasure of freely soaring in the sky makes me unable to stop. The infectious power of paragliding is still very strong, even the little sister has become a fearless warrior, fighting against the sky with us rough men.

ATV is a type of beach bike, often translated as "suitable for all terrains" in Chinese, and officially named "all terrain four wheel off-road motorcycle" by the Chinese government.

The performance of this type of car is very powerful, and it can be easily overcome in riverbed, forest roads, streams, and even worse deserts. Sitting in such a car, you can feel its heroic posture without starting it, and the texture is very good.

At the moment it started, as I sat in the car, I immediately felt its endless power. The unrestrained sound, accompanied by strong power, gushed out together. At the moment of stepping on the accelerator, the car shook even more violently, and the whole person shook with the rhythm.

When the wheels turned, flying sand and rocks arrived at the same time, and dust was raised on the road, which can be described as earth shattering. The strong acceleration immediately caused the whole car to accelerate, and the scenery on both sides of the road quickly reversed, making me feel like I had learned to transfer in an instant.

If you are driving on bumpy roads, this speed will make you feel dizzy, but fortunately, the roads in the scenic area are very smooth. This way, I can feel its speed without having to endure the bumps along the way.

For a rookie like me, ATV vehicles cannot fully unleash their power. Some experienced drivers are completely different, as they can drive ATVs to complete various difficult movements, providing an incredibly thrilling and thrilling experience.

The hometown town can not only lead adults to rediscover the feeling of childhood, but also give children a beautiful childhood memory. There are various activities suitable for children to play in the Children's Heart and Fun Park.

Children can cheer and bask in the sunshine on the sunny lawn. Adults can lay a picnic carpet here, sit quietly on it, watch their children, and enjoy peaceful time happily.

Sculptures of various animals can also be found here, each one being lifelike. In the Mushroom Paradise, there are fake mushrooms standing tall, which look very realistic. Some large mushrooms can even stand in with a few people, and here they are as joyful as children playing hide and seek. Scenes such as forest cottages and century old persimmon trees are also very vivid and vivid.

There are also activities such as water play, plant maze, hometown grass skating, and swing, where parents and children run together in the world filled with laughter and joy.

Among the many projects in the Childlike Heart and Fairy Park, the ones that made me the happiest were grass skating, stake exploration, and plant maze. Six different colored slides extended from the top of the slope, and children sat on the grass mat and rushed down, flying down while shouting loudly. This scene greatly tempted us adults, and we all went to try one by one, shouting loudly to release all the pressure.

Nong Qing Mi Yi, just by its name, one can tell that it is a scenic spot full of love. Here is a very loving sculpture of you, me, and you, in memory of Zhao Mengfu and his wife. It is said that Zhao Village in Miaoxi Town, where the town is located, is the gathering place of the family of calligraphers and painters Zhao Mengfu, and the love story between Zhao Mengfu and his wife Guan Daosheng is also widely circulated here.

Back in the day, Zhao Mengfu was born with a jade tree and a graceful demeanor. He was knowledgeable and talented, making him a famous scholar. However, Guan Daosheng came from a wealthy family and was also a talented woman, and their union was widely rumored at that time. After marriage, Zhao Mengfu was even more proud and had a prosperous official career. He rose to the rank of Hanlin Bachelor and became a first-class official.

During their marriage, Zhao Mengfu praised Guan Daosheng endlessly. In multiple communications with friends, he openly expressed his admiration for his wife. The two of them have always been on equal footing, despite minor setbacks, they still have a strong affection. Their stories have also been praised by the world and are still passed down orally in the local area.

In the Nongqing Miyi Scenic Area, there are also attractions such as Love Square, Yutang Spring Creek, Red Rope Corridor, and Quehua Terrace. In the blooming season, every flower here will strive to bloom itself, and the scenic area seems to have put on a colorful coat overnight. The murmuring water irrigates the blooming flowers in the scenic area, colliding with rocks to produce a pleasant sound and playing a beautiful piece of music. We were originally only given a visual feast, but now we are also receiving a free auditory feast.

The scenery of Nong Qing Mi Yi is beautiful, and the activities to play are also very good. Bouncing Cloud is located in this scenic area, and many people know about trampolines, so their understanding of Bouncing Cloud is not as thorough. Bouncing Cloud is composed of two layers of membranes, which are shaped like clouds and are pure and flawless. We jump and enjoy the joyful time on it, like in an amusement park.

Strolling in the Nong Qing Mi Yi scenic area, breathing in fresh air, smelling the refreshing fragrance, and the sight of green makes our mood incredibly comfortable.

In the process of tourism, some scenic spots only provide tourists with tourist attractions to play with, without any knowledge, which is inevitably somewhat monotonous. But the hometown town is different. It not only has beautiful scenery, but also combines education with entertainment, showing us a lot of knowledge about butterflies.

The Butterfly Ecological Science Popularization Hall in the hometown town is the "ornamental butterfly scientific research demonstration base" of the Chinese Academy of Forestry, and also the largest and most diverse butterfly ecological science popularization experience hall in Asia. The area of this science popularization experience hall is 4132 square meters, and the living area of living butterflies covers 800 square meters.

We often hear about turning a cocoon into a butterfly, but very few people have the opportunity to see the entire process. We were fortunate enough to witness this process while traveling here, as the experience hall showcased the process of butterfly larvae, emergence, and release.

Upon arriving at the Butterfly Ecological Science Popularization Experience Hall, the first sight was the festive red sculpture. Many red butterflies are suspended in a circular ring, looking full of dynamic beauty. The lush trees around it serve as a backdrop, complementing the combination of red and green.

Entering the Butterfly Ecological Science Popularization Experience Hall feels like entering a fairyland. The entire experience hall is designed very exquisitely, with the beauty of Jiangnan small bridges and flowing water. Various butterflies and their living environments have been simulated, and we feel as if we have entered the kingdom of butterflies.

Here, I found out for the first time that China actually has a national dish - the Golden Spot billed Phoenix Butterfly. The golden spotted phoenix butterfly has a very high appearance value and its rarity surpasses that of giant pandas. The treasure of this museum is the specimen of the golden spotted beaked phoenix butterfly, which has broadened my horizons.

The golden spotted beaked butterfly is an internationally endangered species, belonging to the R-class (the rarest first-class) and ranking first among the world's eight precious butterflies. In order to showcase the charm of Chinese butterflies, the Butterfly Ecological Science Popularization Experience Hall has carefully created a 3D effect of the golden spotted beaked phoenix butterfly. The golden color flashing in the back wings makes my heart unable to resist it.

The Science Popularization Knowledge Area is a typical demonstration area that combines education with entertainment. It showcases thousands of butterfly specimens from around the world, including more than ten precious species such as the Chinese tiger butterfly, two tailed butterfly, and three tailed butterfly.

What interests me the most in the experience hall is the release of live butterflies. In the release area, I closely chase the dancing butterflies with my camera, recording every beautiful moment. The butterflies dancing in the flowers are different, but they display the same brilliance.

Coming out of the Butterfly Ecological Science Popularization Hall, we arrived at another place full of poetic and picturesque scenery, which is Jiyuan Huatian. The name Jiyuan Huatian is full of symbolism, with Jiyuan meaning "tie" in homophonic. Huatian is a key virtual place name in the anime "One Piece", a secret base of the villain tribe, and also one of the five real scene areas in the hometown town.

Strolling along the corridors of Jiyuan Flower Field, I felt a full European atmosphere, as these corridors were all connected by European flower racks, giving me a feeling of being in a foreign country.

The brown mill windmill amidst a myriad of flowers showcases the beauty of classicism, while the pure white fan leaves rotate leisurely, bringing a refreshing feeling and stirring the fragrance of flowers, making it even more charming.

The flower fields here are colorful all year round, and no matter when tourists arrive, there are corresponding flowers blooming in full bloom. The fragrance of flowers throughout the four seasons attracted many couples, who came here to take wedding photos. The faces of the newlyweds were filled with happy smiles, and the photographer captured the most beautiful moment for them.

Many newcomers like to take photos of running and jumping on the lawn, or dynamic photos of men chasing women, both of which are blockbusters. A peaceful church is the best place to clear the mind, especially in a hometown town where smelling the fragrance of flowers can empty one's soul, which is a kind of enjoyment.

This romantic attraction has naturally become a wedding themed venue, presenting us with a colorful, romantic and fresh love holy land, and fully showcasing the romance of our hometown town.

The autumn sun is slightly cool, and the lazy sunlight shines through the window on my tea cup. The tea leaves in the glass lie quietly at the bottom of the cup, and everything is as quiet as static. I enjoy sipping a cup of fragrant tea in warm afternoons and thinking about stories related to Lu Yu. I always want to explore his footsteps and see how he wrote the Tea Classic.

This trip to the hometown town finally gave me the opportunity to have a close relationship with him. There is an ancient Lu Yu Road here, which attracts countless tourists to revisit this path. The Luyu Ancient Road and Xiamushan Ancient Road are located in Miaoshan Village, a millennium old village in Miaoxi Town, Huzhou. It is the most weathered ancient road in the northern Zhejiang region. Xiamu Mountain has a mountain full of tea gardens, and the green tea covers the entire mountain, telling the story of their relationship with Lu Yu.

At that time, Lu Yu traveled through mountains and rivers, and eventually lived here for more than 40 years, completing the world's first tea culture masterpiece, "The Classic of Tea.". Not only did he let the world know about Lu Yu, but he also brought profound tea culture into the eyes of the world.

The ancient road is over 20 kilometers long, starting from the beautiful Xiamu Mountain Reservoir. It twists and turns, creating a picturesque scenery. Strolling through it, listening quietly to the chirping of insects and birds; Greedily breathing fresh air; My whole world is filled with the beauty of rural scenery.

Along the valley floor, the ancient path meanders gracefully up, with murmuring streams and lush shrubs on both sides. The birds sing and the flowers are fragrant, and the panoramic view offers breathtaking views of the picturesque paddy fields and villages below the mountains. Together, they form a poetic Chinese ink painting.

The white tea on Xiamu Mountain is famous far and wide, and Xiafeng Ganquan and Xiafeng Yunwu are also known as the "double wonders of Xiafeng". Xiamu Mountain, which combines good tea and good water, is a holy land for tea tasting. Soak a pot of tea here, quietly watching the beautiful scenery, and the whole person becomes even more sober.

[Hotel Recommendation]
It was really a loss to play in the vast hometown town for only one day, so I chose to stay at the hometown hotel in the scenic area. Looking from afar through the water, the hometown hotel with pink walls and black tiles is full of a rustic atmosphere. The geographical location of relying on mountains and water makes it like a wealthy family in ancient Jiangnan, and also provides us with great convenience.

I only saw its true face when I arrived at the door of the Yuanxiang Hotel. Brown wooden pillars support the hotel, red lanterns are hung high, a style of antique charm, large french window are full of fashion flavor, especially Peppa Pig in front of the door is full of childlike charm, and the combination of classical and fashion is just right.

Entering the hotel, the spacious lobby is as magnificent as an ancient royal palace. The exquisite chandelier hangs from the ceiling, with a unique design that perfectly matches the exquisite and transparent Jiangnan. The enthusiastic and professional waiter quickly helped me complete the procedures and guided me to my room.

The Yuanxiang Hotel has a total of 124 guest rooms. This time, I chose a hotel type guest room with wooden doors and windows, wooden flooring, various wooden furniture, and even the stairs are made of wood. A clean and tidy room, combined with these wooden things, makes me feel like a hermit from ancient times who did not eat human fireworks.

The Hometown Hotel, located among flowers, plants, and trees, has a unique view at night. Various insect calls came from all directions in a leisurely manner, and the fragrance of flowers came to join the fun. In the peaceful atmosphere, I fell asleep peacefully.
