A three-day deep tour of Tiantai, not only the most beautiful temple, but also the spirit on the mountain
🌈Before going to Tiantai Mountain, I imagined that I would quietly visit the ancient temples for thousands of years, slowly wait for the cows to get off work, leisurely watch the green mountains and waterfalls, happily take pictures of Zen landscapes, stroke cats, drink tea and eat vegetarian meals. After the trip, everything was as I wished, but the adjectives were a bit off. I walked 25 kilometers in three days, and on the last day I sat on the high-speed train back with two muddy trouser legs, but I was happier than the planned trip, especially the Xiagu Ancient Road, the beautiful mountains and waters of Tiantai Mountain are real.
🚴♀️Because several scenic spots are basically all the way, so there are many problems in transportation and tour routes, the number of words is limited, detailed strategies will be divided later, first simply say the total itinerary
1⃣Day1: Departure—Tiantai Station—Big Waterfall—Qiongtai Fairy Valley
2⃣Day2: Guoqing Temple—Tiantai Museum—Shiliang
3⃣Day3: Xiagu Ancient Road Loop—Tiantai Station Return
📍✔️First afternoon: Big Waterfall + Qiongtai Fairy Valley (Pictures 1-5)
🔸Bought a joint ticket, walked all the way, took 3 hours, the route track is 9 kilometers (only more than 7 kilometers on the two-step track, has been synchronized), the big waterfall is indeed spectacular, but after climbing to the top of the mountain all the way to Qiongtai Fairy Valley, it is the mountain and water show, worth the ticket price. This attraction is near, it is convenient for one person to take a taxi.
📍✔️Second morning: Guoqing Temple + Tiantai Museum, afternoon: Shiliang (Pictures 6-11)
🔸Guoqing Temple is as everyone says, quiet and simple, even the plants have Buddha nature, the entrance of Tiantai Museum is very inconspicuous, but the cultural exhibits inside are very rich.
🔸Shiliang Feipu is rushing to the last bus of the scenic spot to go back to the last bus, about 3 kilometers from the entrance to the exit, it takes 1 and a half hours, completely different from the big waterfall Qiongtai Fairy Valley, it is a place to brush again. This attraction is far away, it is more convenient for one person to take the scenic bus.
📍✔️Third day: Xiagu Ancient Road Loop (Pictures 12-16)
🔸Start timing from near Tiantai Hotel, the whole journey is 13 kilometers, it takes 5 hours (only more than 12 kilometers on the two-step track, has been synchronized), all the way through the mountains, villages, ancient temples, quiet and natural, the second half of the journey met rain, so I brought two trouser legs out of the mountain. There are several wild roads in this loop, it is not recommended for women to hike alone, especially when the weather is bad.
🌟If the weather is bad in Tiantai Mountain, it is easy to fog up the mountain, self-driving around the mountain road should pay attention to safety, novice drivers are not recommended.
🌟I won't go out for food, I've been hiking all the way, the most I eat is dry food, but I ate at the earth stove, I feel average, and the random He Wei stir-fry on the side of the road, unexpectedly suits my taste, I ate it for two days.
🌟The temples in Tiantai Mountain are really beautiful, and the three-day deep tour makes me feel that the mountains and waters here are more spiritual.
Guoqing Temple Ancient Trees
Guoqing Temple is located in Tiantai Mountain, Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province, where the Sui Mei is a very precious ancient tree. It is said to have been planted by the first abbot of Guoqing Temple, Master Guanding, and is now located on the east side of the Mahavira Hall of Guoqing Temple. It is a national first-class protected ancient tree. In addition, the thousand-year-old camphor tree outside the gate of Guoqing Temple, the four camphor trees in front of the Mahavira Hall, and so on, can all let you feel the strong historical and cultural atmosphere and the serene Buddhist cultural heritage.
Old towers and screen walls, fourteen hundred years old
Recommended reason: The cultural atmosphere is extremely dense, the photos look good, and the key is free!!
Location: Guoqing Scenic Area
🏞【Destination Guide】
🧳Pre-trip preparation: When I went there, it was the last few days of the Spring Festival holiday, the weather was still good, and there were not many people. It may rain in the recent May, it is best to prepare rain gear and wear waterproof and non-slip shoes (if the rain is not heavy, it is definitely the scene of 'rain falling, the old hometown's vegetation is dense', very suitable for taking photos of the national style and classical: Hanfu, oil-paper umbrellas, a glance through time!)
🚗Transportation strategy: The entrance is at the foot of the mountain, there is a pretty big parking lot, you can drive yourself, or take public transportation or a taxi to the Guoqing Scenic Area parking lot
🛏Hotel information: There are some homestays near the scenic area parking lot, the accommodation conditions are new and old, and they vary, everyone can compare on related platforms
🌟Local must-visit: Sui Tower, Guoqing Temple
🍽Food strategy: There are only some local restaurants with homestays and some local snack shops around the scenic area. There are also various mobile roadside stalls in the scenic area that look like local villagers (starch sausages, baked cakes, stinky tofu, etc.), I can only say it's not bad, and the price is reasonable (I went during the Spring Festival, and the prices were not much different from the usual roadside snacks)
🛍Shopping strategy: There are many Yiwu small commodities
💗Travel experience: The focus is on the scenic spot itself. As a deep lover of travel photography and historical and cultural arts, I particularly hate fake cultural relics. Before coming to Guoqing Temple, I used to go to places like Shanxi and Henan where the cultural relics are well preserved. Later, when I came to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, I felt that the ancient buildings here were too newly repaired, like Lingyin Temple, which is so new that it has lost the texture of time, until I came to Guoqing Temple and Sui Tower. From the buildings to the ground, and the surrounding water system environment, it is all living history, worth visiting again and again
📌Little Tips: There are many famous scenic spots further up from Guoqing Temple, which is the end of the East Zhejiang Tang Poetry Road where poets from the Tang Dynasty to all dynasties gathered (I plan to go again to continue exploring). The most famous Tiantai Sect in Japan originated here, and Guoqing Temple is its ancestral temple, with too many stories to explore

Shenxianju Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Come to the place where the immortals live, and take some ethereal photos! Attached is a shooting guide
🌤Come to the Immortal's Residence in the New Year, ascend from the south gate, every step is a scene, majestic and spectacular, extraordinarily beautiful, the fairy aura in the mountains is floating, stepping into the mountains is refreshing, instantly becoming a broad-minded, not curled, not dry little fairy~
🏞The Immortal's Residence is really good for shooting, there are many check-in points, and any shot is a blockbuster. I have summarized a few check-in points and shooting tips, everyone can take it~
📸Photo check-in position in the Immortal's Residence: Buddha Shadow Lotus Rhyme, South Heaven Top, Worship Platform, Ruyi Bridge, Lotus Platform, halfway up the mountain, the photo red wall under the mountain is also very beautiful
📌Shooting tips for reference:
1, It is recommended to wear ancient style clothing, solid color is better, white is more fairy, horse face skirt is more heroic
2, Buddha Shadow Lotus Rhyme must be checked in, every 5 minutes will spray a mist, the fairy atmosphere is more sufficient
3, The mountain is cooler than the bottom of the mountain, it is recommended to bring a thick coat for shooting
4, You can bring your own shooting props, fans, ancient style hats, cloaks are all good
5, The drone perspective shooting scenery, portraits are more beautiful
☝🏻Mountain climbing tour route suggestion: It is recommended to go up from the south gate, directly take the cable car, change to the elevator to check in Buddha Shadow Lotus Rhyme, South Heaven Top and Ruyi Bridge and so on, but not in the same direction, you need to watch the time
🎫The ticket for the Immortal's Residence is 110/person, the separate ticket for the South Heaven Top is 99/person
🚡The cable car goes up 65 yuan/person, the cable car goes down 55 yuan/person
Conquered my fears & soared to new heights in
Trekking up the South Heaven Summit was a journey of determination & awe-inspiring vistas. The sun painted the world in hues of gold as I stood at the pinnacle, a surreal moment etched forever.
But the real adventure began with the Glass Skywalk. Stepping onto the transparent path suspended hundreds of meters above ground sent my heart racing. Adrenaline surged through me with each step, the wind whispered ancient secrets, and the sway beneath my feet added to the thrill.
As I walked along the skywalk, Xianju's beauty unfolded beneath me – valleys, hills, and rivers that seemed like nature's masterpiece. The blend of awe & exhilaration reminded me of life's fragility & wonder. Captured moments in photographs couldn't compare to the feeling of facing fear & emerging triumphant.
Xianju County's South Heaven Summit & Glass Skywalk are more than attractions – they're invitations to embrace courage & adventure, a chance to leave comfort zones behind. To all seeking unforgettable experiences, heed the call of Xianju. 🌄 Embrace the rush, embrace the beauty. Your journey awaits! #XianjuAdventures#trip
Incredible bridges in zhejiang
#mountainview After encountering several reposts of drone shots of the Ruyi bridge on IG, I found out that Unitravel, a travel agency based in Hangzhou, was offering trips to to Shenxianju scenic spot. A bunch of friends and I signed up and we were not disappointed at all!
We chose to take the cable car and only walked a bit to find escalators taking us further up. That was something none of us have seen before, definitely not on a mountain! We spotted a nice area with chairs and tables, surrounded by a few shops, where we sat and had our own packed lunches. We crossed two bridges before finally spotting the Ruyi bridge. I went to several glass bridges before and that one was indeed, the most impressive. While following the pathway, you’ll come across shops selling beverages and snacks. Fresh air & mountain views, a great combo for a getaway from the city!
We walked in the sun for hours and were too exhausted to descend on foot. We chose to take the cable car again. There was a massive queue and we had to wait for an hour.
#mountains#mountaintop#mountainescape#mountaingetaway#zhejiang#bridge#grouptour#travelstories#travelstories
If you are planning for a long hike, with beautiful scenery, fresh air, Shenxianju, Taizhou, Zhejiang is best place for you, better drive your own car to also enjoy the road trip. The top of mount is a long walk of around 5 kilometer so better keep necessary food with you and keep yourself hydrated if you are traveling during summers. The scenary is breathtaking but if you are traveling with kids I would suggest to take cable car to reach mountain top, as you also need to walk around 5 km to travel around on the top of mountain.

Colourful town
A little colourful town in Wenling. Good place to stroll around and get a coffee with a view in Zhejiang.
How to get there: Take a didi from Wenling Railway station, takes about 45mins-1h
Taizhou, Zhejiang, is a seriously underrated treasure city for tourism
I really regret not coming to this treasure city of Jiangnan earlier, with its profound cultural heritage, beautiful mountains and rivers, the azure sea, and various seafood and sticky delicacies.
🌾Sharing my three-day, two-night Taizhou itinerary, remember to save it if you need it~🎁
3 Days 2 Nights Itinerary✨
Day1: Tiantai Waterfall - Taizhou Prefecture City
Day2: Wenling Shitang
Day3: Shenxianju Scenic Area

🌟Recommendation: The nine-tiered waterfall, where every casual snapshot dances with nature.🕺
2️⃣ Wenling Shitang🎨
Colorful Xiaonuo Village: A macaron-like colorful village🏘, houses painted in various candy colors, where you can take many Instagram-style photos. If the weather is good, you can go to the opposite Qilin Mountain😜, Xiaoruo Village's 'Rio de Janeiro' vibe.
Duijie Viewing Platform: Walk from Jinsha Beach to Duijie Viewing Platform, it's a bit tiring to climb the mountain, but the scenery is really nice😍
3️⃣ Shenxianju🌄
A mountain that does not require climbing, a national 5A scenic area. Here, the landscape is charming🛶, with unique natural scenery and profound cultural heritage. From the top of the mountain, you can enjoy the spectacular peaks, waterfalls, and streams🤩.
🌟Recommendation: View the Guanyin Peak from the Lotus Platform, tread the Yunladder under the Bagua Platform, stroll on the Wolong Bridge, and walk on the Ruyi Bridge🚶♂️🚶♀️
4️⃣ Taizhou Prefecture City (Donghu - Jiangnan Great Wall - Longxing Temple - Ziyang Street)📸

Here's a little secret to taking picturesque photos:
Be sure to choose a sunny day🌞✚ and a day with little wind and waves
Wenling Shitang
Just as we got onto the mountain road, the Swiss consultant said that this road is very similar to Switzerland. The weather last Sunday was also very cooperative, showing our foreign friends the bluest sea of Shitang. This time, Sheye Ji Lai also finally came, although the must-order coffee/yogurt is not worth 58, but the big lawn is worth it

Linhai Ziyang Street, a famous historical and cultural street in China
Visiting Linhai, one must climb the Taizhou Prefecture City Wall and stroll through Linhai Ziyang Street. Ziyang Street, with a total length of 1080 meters, is named after Ziyang Zhenren, the founder of the Southern School of Taoism, and is a famous historical and cultural street in China.
After renovation and restoration, the buildings on both sides of the ancient Ziyang Street are basically arranged in a layout of shops in the front and workshops or residences in the back, and the original old shops and former residences have been well preserved.
Therefore, it is a 'living old street'. Tourists walking on the street can appreciate the characteristics of Linhai from different eras.
On this street, one can also fully experience the lively atmosphere of the ancient city of Linhai. Strolling and snacking on Ziyang Street, one can enjoy special flavors such as seaweed cakes, black rice mochi, egg white lamb tails, food cone pastries, and wheat shrimp, truly living up to Linhai's reputation as the 'Capital of Chinese Snacks'.
