Jiuxi, a classic hiking trail for spring outings

I went to Jiuxi with my friends for a spring outing. I haven't been here for a few years, and Jiuxi has become a popular attraction with an endless stream of visitors. Fortunately, the scenery is still the same. 🌸Jiuxi has always been known as a paradise for hikers and is the most suitable classic route for beginner hikers in Hangzhou. Walking along Jiuxi Road, you'll see tea gardens on both sides of the road, lush greenery lining the path, and your clothes brushing against the verdant foliage. 🌸Forests, tea gardens, ancient trees, cicadas chirping, waterfalls, streams, stone paths... Due to the narrow and long valley and the lush vegetation, even though the temperature has reached 32 degrees, it feels cooler than outside. 🌸Jiuxi is famous for its autumn scenery, where the maple trees and the scenery complement each other. The water surface is calm, reflecting the red leaves, and the maple leaves are drunk with frost red. But who knew that her spring scenery was also so charming? Walking among the tea gardens, the aroma of tea fills the air, as if you are in a painting. April is the time to drink Longjing tea, just as the couplet at Linhaiting says: "A short stay is best, and enjoy Zhao Zhou tea; returning home can wait, try singing the flowers on the roadside together." ————🎈Hiking Routes🎈———— After the Jiuxi bus stop and the Jiuxi Yanshu scenic spot, there is a fork.
