Shangxiang Ancient Road Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The ancient road of incense, in ancient times, was the way for pilgrims to go ashore at Maojiabu by boat, and then go to Tianzhu temples to carry incense. Now it is a section of road from Yanggongdi to Maojiabu. Due to the westward project of the West Lake, Shangxiang Ancient Road was awakened from history and restored, becoming a cultural corridor for searching for seclusion and visiting ancient times and experiencing folk customs. Wolong Bridge and Yinxiu Bridge on Yanggong Causeway are about tens of meters apart, and the entrance to Shangxiang Ancient Road is between them. Shangxiang Ancient Road is not as straight, transparent and monotonous as Su Causeway. Take a stroll along the Shangxiang Ancient Road, changing scenery every step of the way. Sometimes there is a plank road, sometimes a stone road, sometimes an arch bridge, sometimes a dirt road, and sometimes a pebble avenue separated by water. Walking along the Shangxiang Ancient Road, you can’t make any noise. There are many kinds of migratory birds in the waters of Xinxi Lake, and wild birds will fly up not far away. There are not many tourists around, and it is very quiet. You can only smell birds flying and warblers, and you are completely in the scenery of lakes and mountains.

Go to Lingyin Temple with a devout heart to incense. The ancient road on the incense is also a very Zen-like one. When you go to both sides, the water is flowing, and there are many ancient trees towering all the way to the sky. It is also a time for your soul to settle down.
I have been to Lingyin Temple many times, and I have not been very deliberately concerned about the name of each road. This time I came to see the Shangxiang Ancient Road. In fact, each one on Linyi is very Zen-like, and the trees on both sides are shaded.
The ancient road on the fragrance, probably means that this is a road for the fragrance people to go, here the environment is quiet and natural, the forest trail, spring, a hundred flowers are beautiful, autumn leaves are known in autumn.
Wolong Bridge and Yinxiu Bridge on Yanggong Dike are about tens of meters away, and between them is the entrance of Shangxiang Ancient Road. The Shangxiang Ancient Road is not as straight, so transparent and so monotonous as Sudi. Walk on Shangxiang Ancient Road, move step by step, one step at a time. Sometimes the plank road, sometimes the stone road, sometimes the arch bridge, sometimes the dirt road, sometimes the pebble road separated by the water, can only walk without looking at the scenery, see the scenery without walking. Walking on the Xianggu Road can not be loud, there are many kinds of migratory birds in the waters of the New West Lake, and there will be wild birds flying not far away. There are not many tourists around, it is very quiet, only the birds and moths, completely in the lake and mountain scenery!
Simple, original ecological ancient street, there are many farmhouse restaurants, as well as tea houses, you can see the local old aunt on the roadside to set up an iron pot with her hands in the pot to stir-fry Longjing tea. There are also many characteristic inns, Banye Art House is the best one of them.
The greening on both sides of the ancient road is well done, and there are many people coming and going.
Nice place, pleasant scenery, green
