My dears👋, I am a travel enthusiast who loves to stroll around. I recently went to Tonglu for a leisurely trip. Tonglu in April is simply amazing! Now I will share this private guide with everyone and start this dream journey of spring together. 📍【Impression of Tonglu】 Tonglu, located in the southwest of Hangzhou, Zhejiang, is a city that is like a paradise on earth👏. It is surrounded by Fuchun mountains and waters, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, and the air is filled with poetry. There is not only the historical charm of Yan Ziling's Fishing Platform, where one can seem to see the leisurely fishing figures of ancient people on the platform; there is also the uncanny craftsmanship of Yaolin Fairyland, where the stalactites in the cave are bizarre and make it look like a fairyland. In April, spring returns to Tonglu. The rape flowers on the banks of the Fuchun River are golden and brilliant, and spring bamboo shoots are breaking through the ground in the mountains. The city is full of life and vigor. It has both the beautiful scenery bestowed by nature and the gentleness and elegance of a small town in the south of the Yangtze River. There is a scene at every step, which is very charming. 🚗【Transportation Guide】 ✈️Flyers: You can fly to Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport first. After you get out of the airport, there are special buses that go directly to Tonglu. It takes about 1.5 to 2 hours to be surrounded by the beautiful scenery of Tonglu. You can also enjoy the scenery of the suburbs of Hangzhou along the way. It is super comfortable. If you want more freedom, taking a taxi is also very convenient, but the cost is higher. 🚄High-speed rail users: There are many trains at Tonglu Station, and the bus network covers a wide range after exiting the station. If you want to go to popular attractions such as Tonglu County and Daqishan National Forest Park, you can easily get there directly, with seamless connection and super worry-free😃. 🚗Self-driving friends: Drive to Tonglu, the highway conditions are good. However, when visiting some scenic spots, such as Yaolin Wonderland, you should be careful when parking in the surrounding areas. Check the parking lot location in advance to avoid illegal parking and ruin your trip. 🗺【Recommended tour routes】 Day 1: Fuchun River Little Three Gorges - Yan Ziling Fishing Platform - Luci Village Morning: Go to the Little Three Gorges of Fuchun River and take a boat tour. The river is sparkling and the green mountains on both sides are continuous. It feels like you are swimming in a painting and feel the real charm of "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" written by Huang Gongwang. Noon: Try the Tonglu rice cake nearby. The skin is soft and glutinous, and the fillings are varied, including pickled mustard greens, dried tofu, etc. One bite is full of Jiangnan flavor, super satisfying 😋. Afternoon: Go to Yan Ziling Fishing Platform to explore the place where Yan Ziling, a noble scholar in the Eastern Han Dynasty, lived in seclusion and fished. Climb up the fishing platform to look into the distance and appreciate the fusion of the heavy history and the mountains and rivers. Then go to Luci Village, stroll along the stream, watch the fish playing, and feel the tranquility and comfort of the countryside. Day 2: Yaolin Wonderland - Chuiyun Tongtian River - Tonglu County Morning: Arrive at Yaolin Wonderland and step into the cave. Various stalactites are gorgeous and dazzling under the light. They are in various shapes. It is as if you have entered a dream world. The uncanny workmanship of nature is amazing. At noon: have a sumptuous Tonglu meal. We recommend the Tongjiang mandarin fish. The fish is fresh and tender, and retains its original flavor after steaming. Just dip it in some steamed fish soy sauce, it is so delicious that it can make your eyebrows fall off. Afternoon: Go to Chuiyun Tongtian River and take a boat through the underground river. There are strange stalactites above your head. It is cool and exciting, and you can experience a different kind of underground adventure. Return to Tonglu County in the evening, visit the night market and experience the nightlife of the small town. Day 3: Daqishan National Forest Park - Return Morning: Go to Daqishan National Forest Park. The mountains and forests in April are lush and green, and the air is as fresh as if it has been washed. Hike along the mountain trails, listen to the birds singing, watch the waterfalls cascading, and feel the gifts of nature. Noon: Try the local specialty Youfeiguo, which is shaped like a fried cake and filled with shredded radish, chopped green onion, etc. It is fried until golden and crispy. One bite will fill the air with fragrance. After dinner, you can go shopping and buy some local specialties, such as Tonglu honey, Zhongshan dried tofu, etc., and then you can return. 📝【Practical Guide】 🎫Tickets: Tickets are required for some attractions such as Yaolin Wonderland and Daqishan National Forest Park. Booking in advance on major platforms often offers discounts and can save you the trouble of queuing on site. Fuchun River Little Three Gorges boat tickets must be purchased separately. Some attractions are open to the public free of charge, such as Luci Village. 🕙Opening hours: Each attraction is different. Be sure to check the official website or call for consultation before traveling, arrange your itinerary reasonably, and don't miss it. 📸Photography: Wear bright sportswear or elegant ancient-style clothing on the banks of the Fuchun River and in scenic areas, and wear warm, non-slip shoes in the caves, which will facilitate movement and increase the rate of photo taking. 🍱【Food Recommendation】 1. Fairy Chicken: The chicken is stewed until it is soft and boneless, with a bright red color and a fragrant aroma. One bite will leave a lingering fragrance in your mouth. It is a traditional specialty of Tonglu. 2. Minute Fruit Cake: Made from glutinous rice flour, white sugar, and various preserved fruits, it has a soft and sticky texture, is sweet but not greasy, and has a rich fruity aroma. It is the first choice for casual snacks. 3. Humai Gao: Made from wheat flour, it is made into thin pancakes with fillings of seasonal vegetables such as shepherd's purse and spring bamboo shoots. It is fragrant and nutritious after being baked. 4. Water Stick Fish: The fish has a slender body and firm meat. After frying, it is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Sprinkle with pepper and salt, it is extremely fragrant. 💡【Tips】 1. In April, the temperature difference between morning and evening in Tonglu is slightly large. Bring a thin coat and put it on in the morning and evening to prevent catching a cold. 2. When visiting scenic spots, wear comfortable sports shoes and take measures to prevent sunburn and mosquitoes. 3. When tasting Tonglu delicacies, some small shops only accept cash, so remember to prepare some change in advance. My dears, Tonglu in April is really full of surprises. Pack your bags and go! I believe you will fall in love with this charming place!

Another spontaneous trip with friends. This is a city I've envied many times. I kept wondering how they managed to make the greenery so beautiful and keep the streets so clean. Before coming here, I didn't know it was just a county. After learning this fact, I became even more envious. Beautiful scenery, excellent greenery, clean city, great urban planning - I envy the locals who can take walks along the river every day. Accommodation: I checked in to an Atour Hotel riverside view room along the Fuchun River. The main selling point is that you can see the Fuchun River from your room, which was quite satisfactory. Food: Every meal in Tonglu was great! I'm even more envious now! 1. Tongluren Restaurant! Delicious! Just order anything - you won't be disappointed. The Zhuangyuan Su (Scholar's Pastry), Immortal Chicken, and Shredded Beef with Pickled Radish were all excellent! 2. Dalian Noodle Restaurant. The Bamboo Shoots and Shredded Pork Noodles were incredibly delicious. The bamboo shoots were amazing! They brought tears to my eyes - I've never had such tender bamboo shoots before. The toppings were flavorful. Although one bowl costs over 30 yuan, it's worth it. Even as someone who doesn't usually like noodles, I fell in love with these. 3. Yu's Mung Bean Cakes, right across from Tongluren Restaurant. They taste better fresh out of the oven and aren't too sweet. Among mung bean cakes, these are quite good. 4. Tong Guo Guo - Traditional Tonglu Rice Cakes. We couldn't finish them so we packed some to take back to Hefei. The Wine-Fermented Sliced Buns were delicious! They're chewy with a slight sweetness from the rice wine. The rice cakes were also good. Planning to order more by delivery next time. 5. Bread and Air, a famous local bakery. I sat in the store for a while and saw a constant stream of customers. The storefront is quite spacious - it's my ideal type of shop. 6. Taste of Tonglu was our last meal in Tonglu. We wanted to try the Fish Maw with Fish Roe. Not many restaurants were open at 3 PM, but the food here was pretty good. Attractions: 1. Daqi Mountain Forest Park. If you have a Hangzhou household registration, you can buy a Hangzhou Culture and Tourism Card for 29.9 yuan (must be purchased 2 hours in advance) for free admission. The whole walk takes about an hour. You can skip the waterfall at the end - it's small and unremarkable. It was my first time seeing blue-green water, which was quite fascinating. The weather was too cold, so the fish stayed at the bottom of the water. You can take the Forest Flying Squirrel down the mountain. The price is negotiable but still quite expensive, and the ride only lasts about a minute. 2. Yuantong Temple was almost empty when we visited, and the entire temple was very peaceful. 3. Tonglu City Planning Exhibition Center is near the hotel, just a short walk away. Located by the Fuchun River, it tells the story of how Tonglu developed to what it is today. After visiting, I could only feel more envious.

I finally went to Tonglu yesterday, a place I've always wanted to visit! It's just a 1-hour drive from the city center. As expected of the Jiuzhaigou of Hangzhou, the blue-gradient glass water is crystal clear, so beautiful that it doesn't seem like it belongs in this world. After returning, I quickly put together a one-day tour guide for Tonglu!! Super detailed!!

This trip was purely for relaxation, with no specific itinerary. I departed from Shanghai at noon and arrived in Tonglu, going directly to the hotel. I booked an executive river-view king-size bed room at the Fuchun River Atour Hotel. The room overlooked the Fuchun River, and the square across the street from the hotel had a market with many snack stalls. You can also walk towards the residential area, where you'll find Hangzhou cuisine and various noodle shops that have been open for many years. (The hotel scenery is beautiful, but because it faces the square, it's a bit noisy, especially on the second day when the aunties come early to do square dancing, so you need to ask the front desk for earplugs in advance, otherwise you won't sleep well in the morning.) The next day, I took a taxi to Daqishan Mountain. The mountain is not big, and it only takes two hours to walk around and take photos. There is a bus from Daqishan to the train station, but it runs on a fixed schedule with long intervals. If you miss it, you can only take a taxi.

My friend said she liked bridges and flowing water, so we chose Tonglu. With our backpacks on, we ran to the high-speed rail station, changed our itinerary according to the weather forecast, changed our train tickets, and changed our hotel. It was quite interesting. Life is full of different experiences. Instead of rushing to check in at scenic spots, walking slowly between the mountains and rivers is the most beautiful moment. Tonglu is a good place, suitable for slowly experiencing and slowing down. We stayed for a day and a half, took a taxi to Shishe Village for half a day, hiked the Maoling Ancient Road, and arrived at Maoping Village. We felt a little tired, so we took a taxi back. In the evening, it started to rain lightly to moderately. The next day, the weather was fine, and we took a taxi to Daqi Mountain. We strolled along the way, walking and stopping, in the cool weather, feeling comfortable and pleasant! Everything is the best arrangement.
