Speechless with the beauty of the sunset! Xiaoshan hides a fantastic hiking trail!

Revisited this place with my parents Only to find that this old mountain in Xiaoshan has changed a lot A 5 km circular walkway connects three hills Along the way, there are old bunkers and viewing platforms Enjoy blooming mountain flowers in spring and colorful forests in autumn In the evening, you can also encounter the orange sunset An easy hiking route for the whole family A must-try for all Hangzhou people! [Two Routes Tested] ❶Beginner-friendly Route (East→West) Starting from Fuqing Temple, the whole journey is a gentle slope Navigate to the free parking lot in front of the temple Go through the archway and ascend the bluestone steps Reach the best viewing spot in 25 minutes Overlook Xiang Lake under the century-old camphor tree ❷Advanced Challenge Route (West→East) 15-minute walk from Shuangqiao Subway Station Ascend the steps from the back hill of the Experimental School Unlock two mysterious military bunkers The ruins of the round bunker offer a sense of traveling through time The second floor of the square bunker offers an aerial view ‼️Local Tips 1. It is recommended to choose cloudy weather for a higher probability of sunset 2. There are restrooms only at the start/end points, so it is recommended to use them in advance 3. Wear non-slip shoes! Some bluestone steps have moss 4. Bring mosquito repellent! The mosquitoes in the forest are quite enthusiastic 5. Families with children can choose a half-way route (round trip from Fuqing Temple → square bunker) 🚇Directions Subway: Line 5 Guniangqiao Station Exit A → 10-minute taxi ride Self-driving: Navigate to "Fuqing Temple" (less than 20 parking spaces) It is recommended to arrive before 9am, as parking spaces tend to fill up on weekends
