Tonglu, a poetic and picturesque city

"Tonglu County, the most beautiful county in China." Tonglu was established as a county during the Three Kingdoms period. The county name comes from the Chinese medicine nose rent Tong Jun old man in the Huangdi era, who used the surname of the Tong tree and lived in a thatched cottage, hence the name Tonglu. Tonglu is located in the central section of the golden tourist line of the southern wing of the Yangtze River Delta and the Three Rivers and Two Lakes. The beautiful Fuchun River runs through the city. Tonglu is located in the northwest of Zhejiang Province, the middle reaches of the Qiantang River, and within the one-hour traffic circle of Hangzhou, 60 kilometers away from Hangzhou city. Tonglu has the geomorphological characteristics of "eight mountains, half water and half fields". The strange mountains and rivers in the territory are unique in the world, and it enjoys the reputation of "Xiantang River ends in Tonglu, the water is green and the mountains are not as good as the painting". The "Tong" in Tonglu is both the "Tong" of the tung tree and the "Tong" of the plane tree. The place name of Tonglu has multiple meanings. Tung oil is an important raw material for shipbuilding in ancient times, and it is a commodity that makes Tonglu famous, so Tonglu is an ancient business town. The mountains and rivers are picturesque, and the plane trees attract phoenixes, so Tonglu is also a hometown of phoenixes and a hometown of tourism. Tonglu has been a picturesque "poetic and picturesque city" since ancient times. Tonglu has mountains, water, forests, caves and stones, and there are more than 20 tourist attractions with different characteristics. In the spring and sunny season, our group walked into the real scene of "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map"-Tonglu, traveled through Fuchun Mountain and Water, and experienced leisurely countryside. Here, green mountains, green water, ancient villages, etc., the city's green trees are shaded, clean and fresh, the countryside's white walls and black tiles are harmonious and warm, you can hear birds singing everywhere, and you can smell the fragrance of flowers from time to time. It really feels like "everything you see is a painting, and people are in the painting." Tonglu has an incomparable beauty, whether it is shy, bold, prosperous, or quiet, driving to it, leisurely clouds, extremely comfortable.....
