Zhejiang's little Jeju Island, come now while you can

World Slow Travel||Who says Ninghai is just a 'little Jeju Island'? After experiencing it myself, I just want to say: Why didn't I come to this earthly paradise sooner?! Ninghai has mountains🏔️, seas🌊, ancient villages🏡, and ancient towns🏯, a perfect healing travel destination! I declare this severely underrated treasure city has caught my attention💖! 🗺️Route Planning: Hangzhou→Qiantong Ancient Town→Lushan→Shitai Mountain→Longgong Ancient Village→Qiangjiao Town→Guangde Temple→Hangzhou A perfect loop, tour around, and back to Hangzhou, simply fantastic👍! 🚅Transportation Guide: ✈️High-speed train: 1.5 hours direct to Ninghai Station, take a taxi, and you'll reach Qiantong Ancient Town in 30 minutes, convenient and fast! 🚗Self-driving: Even more recommended! A 3.5-hour drive, with endless scenery along the way, and a feast for the eyes. Although there is some distance between each scenic spot, self-driving is more free and flexible, go wherever you want at the push of the throttle! 🏕️Quick View of Attractions: 1️⃣Qiantong Ancient Town💰: Adults 60R / Students 30R The filming location of 'The Barber', more than 1300 ancient residential buildings stand tall, with the years etching a sense of vicissitudes on them, each brick and tile telling its own history. 2️⃣Lushan🏃‍♀️: The mountain is not high, easy to conquer! Once you reach the top, you have a drone's eye view of the entire ancient town, get it! Next time, remember to bring a drone to record the beauty from a different angle. 3️⃣Longgong Ancient Village🌿: Surrounded by green mountains, with a babbling brook, the 400-year-old dragon tree at the entrance of the village witnesses the passage of time. A hidden Shangri-La, truly worth visiting! 4️⃣Shitai Mountain🏔️: Drive up, walk a short dirt path after getting off the car, and the giant rocks on the mountain top await you. On a clear day, you can see the whole panorama of Ninghai, definitely pick a sunny day to conquer Shitai Mountain again! 5️⃣Qiangjiao Town🏖️: Truly deserving of the name 'Zhejiang's little Jeju Island'! The path next to the folk singer's coffee shop takes you up the mountain, overlooking the whole town, with the sea breeze gently blowing, and the years peacefully passing. 6️⃣Guangde Temple🕉️: Rich in historical and cultural heritage, the temple layout is ingenious, and the garden landscaping is full of artistic sense. Here, every frame is a masterpiece, remember to bring your photographer's soul with you📷. Ninghai, how can I not miss you? Next time we meet, it must be on a sunny day, I will make up for the sunny days I owe you all at once!🌈🌞Looking forward to our next meeting, Ninghai!💕
