Hangzhou a sea of tranquility in the mountains 🏞

#hangzhoutrip Nestled in a hidden corner of Hangzhou, just behind the majestic West lake, endulge yourself with one of the most beautiful hikes you can do in this city. Yunqi bamboo trail will leave you breathless, figuratively and literally 😆 🎋 Walk the bamboo lined paths up and down the mountain,.you will be rewarded with amazing views of Hangzhou and the tea plantations. 📕You MUST have your passport with you, Pay 8RMB at the entrance gate and let the adventure begin. We started the south entrance ⛩ on Meling Road, the one closest to Xixin Pavilion. 🚶Wear comfortable shoes, plenty of mosquito repellent 🐜and take it slow. ↗️It is just over an hour of climbing stairs until you get to the first stop Zhenji Temple 🏯(see area map pic). there is a shop, ensure to stock up on water here 🥤. From here, you can head to Shifeng Peak, on your way you will meet the most amazing views of the city, you WON'T BELIEVE😱 you are looking at the same city as you turn your head🏙🙃🏞. Once you reach this point you can head down to visit Longjing village 🍃☕️ its 30 minutes walking down the mountain, then 1h walking back up↗️ to head to the exit. There is alternative transport out of the village though 😊👍 #hangzhoutrip #china #roadtrip #temples #hiking #hikingtrails #hangzhou #westlake #tea #weekendtrip
