Some information may have been translated by Google Translate

Tonglu Rafting is known as the "No. 1 Rafting in East China". It enjoys the natural advantages of the Fuchun River system and combines thrills with poetic landscapes. There are many distinctive rafting scenic spots here: Huxiaoxia Rafting features "small streams and big waves". The whole journey is 4.8 kilometers, with a total drop of 260 meters. You can take a professional kayak to shuttle between granite canyons. The thrill of riding waves is perfectly combined with the ecological oxygen bar with 99% forest coverage on both sides of the river; Tianmu Creek Rafting focuses on leisurely wild fun. Bamboo rafts or leather rafts go downstream, passing through the "Eighteen Beaches", watching cormorants fishing and enjoying the pastoral scenery. During the 2.5-kilometer voyage, you can experience rural fun such as water fights and tasting bamboo tube rice; Shanwanwan Rapids Adventure features a glass high-altitude cliff rafting with a vertical drop of 208 meters. The 3.5-kilometer river channel is like a roller coaster on the crest of the wave, and screams throughout the journey. Come to Tonglu for rafting and experience the cool speed and passion.

Meet up with friends, delve into the mountains, and seek that refreshing coolness~~~~ This time, our destination is the famous Yalu Drifting around Tonglu. The drifting experience here is incredibly thrilling!✨ The natural river course is 3.5 kilometers long, and we drifted in the water for a full 3 hours!

Take out your pre-prepared water guns and swimsuits, and immerse yourself in the cool water world with friends, enjoying unparalleled happy times🔥. For accommodation, we chose a cozy homestay in a small village in Tonglu. Sitting in the yard at night, brewing tea around the stove with friends🍀, chatting, it feels like being in a dream. The bamboo forest behind the homestay allows you to breathe fresh air, washing away the hustle and fatigue of the city, it's simply wonderful!

A Real Record of the Trip to Hangzhou's Natural Forest Oxygen Bar, Little Jiuzhaigou

A Real Record of the Trip to Hangzhou's Natural Forest Oxygen Bar, Little Jiuzhaigou

It was rare that it didn't rain this weekend☔️, so I made plans with a friend to go outdoors⛳️. My friend likes outdoor activities and is quite familiar with the surroundings of Tonglu, so I just followed him without thinking, and this time we decided to climb Daqi Mountain⛰️. The lake water of Daqi Mountain is crystal clear💦, deep and serene, like a sapphire💎 hidden in the forest, or like the eye of the devil in Bali👁️. Taking photos and checking in📷 is absolutely photogenic, and you don't even need to add a filter. The air on Daqi Mountain is exceptionally fresh🍃, with a high concentration of negative oxygen ions, just like a natural oxygen bar. No wonder it was rated by 'National Geographic' as one of the best travel destinations in the world🌍. You can also come here for a hiking trip🚶 during the May Day holiday, trek through the mountains, visit the Shijingyuan scenic area, the Zhiqingqu, and the Green World amusement park... Then climb to the top of the mountain to overlook the entire jungle🌴, and you will definitely feel the thrill. If it's a family trip, you can also let the kids play in the Daqi Mountain Magic Park and watch the light show and naked-eye movies. Warm Tips 1⃣️There might be mosquitoes in the mountains, so it's recommended to wear long sleeves and pants, and to wear glasses👓 or sunglasses🕶️. 2⃣️The mountain roads are rugged, especially after the rain, so it's advised to wear anti-slip shoes👟. 3⃣️Pet-friendly🐈‍⬛, visitors can bring small pets into the scenic area, but fierce and large dogs might be kept out.

Tonglu 3 Days 2 Nights | Shishe Village, a place I've longed to visit and finally did!

Tonglu 3 Days 2 Nights | Shishe Village, a place I've longed to visit and finally did!

【Shanghai—>Tonglu: 3 Days 2 Nights Itinerary】 Day 1 Shanghai->Dongziguan Village->Dipu Ancient Village->Stay in Tonglu City Area Day 2 Tonglu City Area Fuchun River->Huangang Ancient Village->Stay in Qinglongwu Day 3 Qinglongwu->Shishe Village->Shanghai ———————————————————— On the third day in Tonglu, I visited Shishe Village, and to be honest, it wasn't breathtaking. The village is surrounded by water, resembling a peninsula, and is quite small; it takes about half an hour to walk through. Moreover, there are fewer ancient buildings compared to Huangang Ancient Village in Tonglu. But a good point is that the village has some shops that other ancient villages do not, such as dining, coffee, and tea, which makes it more convenient. I saw people who hiked the Malingshan Trail starting or resting here. Additionally, there is construction going on at the edge of the village, presumably to build accommodation facilities. ———————————————————— 【Highlights of Shishe Village】 Water Play: Shishe Village is surrounded by water systems. Although the water quality is not as good as the streams in Qinglongwu, it is still relatively clean. There are several water-friendly platforms and dams by the river, which make it a nice place for water play in summer. Dining: There are several restaurants in the village, one of which was fully occupied at mealtime. The taste is acceptable for a village level, and I ordered a bowl of rice sieve crawler, asparagus stir-fried with Chinese yam, sweet and sour pork loin, and rice (about 120, see pictures 14-15). Ancient Architecture: There are a few ancient buildings in Shishe Village, and the area around the village square is quite photogenic. Tea Drinks: There are a few coffee and tea shops, which are nice places to rest after walking the Malingshan Trail. ———————————————————— 【Tips for Visiting Shishe Village】 Address Navigation: Shishe Village, Tonglu County, Hangzhou City Transportation: 26km from Tonglu High-speed Train Station | Self-driving Visiting Time: 1-2 hours for a quick tour Surrounding Places: Maoping Village (2.5km) | Lüci Village (9km) | Dongziguan Village (12km) | Dipu Ancient Village (9km) | Shena'o Ancient Village (7km) | Huanxi Village (10km) | Qingyuan Ancient Village (12km) | Malingshan Trail
