I discovered a treasure! Hangzhou has a hidden niche spot, what should we do if it becomes popular?

Everyone, big shock! In the crowded Hangzhou travel circle, there is actually a beautiful ancient village hidden away in seclusion! While other tourist attractions are crowded, here the black slate roofs are arranged in an orderly manner, the bluestone roads are winding, the old houses in the mountain village are silent over the years, and chickens and ducks are strolling happily in the yard. There are no bustling tourists and no trace of commercial atmosphere. It is like a peach garden forgotten by time. It is Zhuchuan Village in Lin'an! Without further ado, here is my two-day and one-night itinerary for you 👇🏻 Day 1️⃣: Go to Lin’an Museum in the morning and immerse yourself in the unique charm of the master’s design. Just strike a pose and the photos you take will amaze your friends. If you are extremely lucky, you may even come across a super popular internet celebrity tree, but its "peak beauty" will only last for a limited time, so it all depends on fate. In the afternoon, we drove along the Western Zhejiang Sky Road. As a part of the Anhui-Zhejiang Sky Road, the air here is moist and fresh, and the mountains are shrouded in clouds and mist, like a fairyland. In early winter, the mountains and fields are colorful, as if a color palette has been overturned. The point is, it is not difficult to drive, and even novice drivers can handle it easily! Check in to Hangzhou Lin'an Xingquan Valley Resort at night and start a relaxing vacation. Day 2️⃣: Sleep in at Xingquan Valley Resort, enjoy breakfast, then set off for Heqiao Ancient Town and return after shopping. Here is a detailed introduction to the treasure place to check in 🎈 ✔️Lin’an Museum: A building with a strong sense of design, any photo taken of it is an art blockbuster. Whether you can be in the same frame with the internet celebrity tree depends on whether you have a connection with it! ✔️Western Zhejiang Sky Road: The scenery along the way is picturesque, with moist air, lingering clouds, and colorful mountains and forests. The visual enjoyment is maximized and the driving experience is perfect! ✔️Zhuchuan Village: A "treasure village" on the Western Zhejiang Sky Road, it has a history of more than 300 years. The slate houses and the autumn sun-drying scene are a Zhejiang version of "Xiaohuangling". If you want to take beautiful pictures, hiking trails are the best choice. ✔️Heqiao Ancient Town: This thousand-year-old ancient town is low-key and charming. The eight-character wooden bridge spans the stream, the Hui-style buildings are simple and elegant, and there are barber shops, barrel hooping shops, and convenience stores, all of which are full of childhood memories. 🏨 Choose Hangzhou Lin'an Xingquan Valley Resort for accommodation. The cave hot springs here are extremely beautiful. There are rose petal pools, milk pools, ginger pools and other pools hidden in the mountains and forests. You can choose whichever one you want. The mountain view suite I stayed in was built against the mountain. Not only was the room spacious, it also had a large terrace and an outdoor private hot spring bathing pool, so I could enjoy the beautiful mountain view without leaving the house. The resort has private parking spaces, so if you don't want to drive, a shuttle bus is always available. Families with children can easily take their kids out for a walk. The Cute Pet Park and Cool Play City allow children to have a lot of fun and they don’t want to leave once they come. 🍴In terms of food, the Chinese restaurant and buffet at Xingquan Valley Resort have high-end decoration, rich dishes, and excellent taste. When you arrive at Heqiao Ancient Town, you must try the local specialty "Heqiao Taguo". It is so big that a girl can't finish it all by herself. If you are tired of the crowded popular attractions and want to find a quiet and fun place to relax, then drive to Lin'an Museum and go on a treasure trove tour at any time! I sincerely hope that this treasure land can always maintain its tranquility, but I also want more people to know its beauty. Am I too greedy?🤣
