I thought Hangzhou was beautiful enough, until I came to Tonglu... Hangzhou is too hot these days...

In my opinion, instead of crowding around West Lake, it is better to go to this underrated treasure town nearby! This is the real cool place to escape the summer heat - Tonglu, the beautiful back garden of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai 1 hour from Hangzhou, two days of fun is not enough Walking the dog and playing in the water, the hidden village of Qingtan Waterfall, hiking on the ancient trail to cool off in the summer, the karst cave park Please keep this two-day Tonglu guide for the summer weekend!! Route reference: Day O: Heartbeat Paradise Ishishe Village Day ❷: Shishe Village, Maoping Village, Luci Village, and a strange mountain Check-in recommendation: Shishe Village (Figure 1.6) Walk along the Ma Ling Ancient Road, and enjoy the scenery along the plank road beside the stream. There are also old buildings from the Ming and Qing dynasties in the village, which can be visited for half a day. | Daqi Mountain (Figure 2-3) The clear blue water of Qingtan Lake with small fish swimming in it is like a small Jiuzhaigou! There are also forests, ancient roads, waterfalls and stone bridges, which are really beautiful~ Maoping Village (Figure 4-5) There are several quaint, artistic and quiet museums. I love this kind of isolated atmosphere. Luci Village (Figure 8) Summer is a great time to take your kids to play in the water! The water is clear, there are few people and it is cool. It is also very nice to go to Baiyunyuan upstream Paradise (Figures 9-15) This is a super fun outdoor park suitable for lazy people. It not only has many interesting projects, such as Sky Flying and Glass Drifting, but also a super cool dream cave at 20 degrees. It is perfect for lazy people to take their kids out for a summer vacation!
