The best time to visit Jiuxi 18 Stream is late autumn and early winter.

Every year, crowds of people flock to Jiuxi 18 Stream in Hangzhou during this time. Walking into the area is like entering a bustling market. This year is no exception, with tourists and hikers flocking to Jiuxi Road, forming a beautiful landscape in the mountains and fields of Hangzhou. Jiuxi 18 Stream is the old name. In the mid-1980s, the relevant departments of Hangzhou included it in the new Ten Views of West Lake, hence the poetic new name "Jiuxi Misty Rain." However, locals still prefer the old name. "Jiuxi Misty Rain" is about 6 km long, with a high west and low east. Along the way, there are actually more than nine streams and eighteen streams, as the ancients often used the numbers "nine" or "eighteen" to indicate a large number. Therefore, the clear streams in the mountains and fields of Jiuxi wind through the forest and around the hills, converging countless streams before finally flowing into the wide Qiantang River. The mountain paths of Jiuxi 18 Stream are winding, with misty forests, gurgling streams, and lush tea gardens. It's the best time for hiking at Jiuxi 18 Stream, and late autumn and early winter is the most beautiful season. Along the way, plants like red maples and dawn redwoods are at their best viewing season after being kissed by the autumn wind and cold wave. These plants present a variety of colors, such as yellow, red, orange, and purple, providing a colorful visual feast. So, what are you waiting for? Before the winter cold wave arrives, head to Jiuxi Misty Rain Scenic Area to enjoy the beautiful scenery gifted by nature!
