#fallingforfall Autumn is always my favourite season; staying in China doesn’t offer a long Autumn period with the lack of seasons. Ningbo’s scenery is filled with the oranges and reds necessary to make it feel like Autumn. Simingshan in Yuyao has many routes through the forests and mountains that can be explored. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can do all of these areas over one day/weekend. #tripblazers #mountainview #nationalpark #urbanexplorer

A ticket here cost 50RMB for the 5 areas of the park (see map photo) we managed to see 2 areas of the park. The first part we went to was Siming Lake, walking around here is relaxing and took us around 1 hour. We then took a 1 hour walk north to the higher area, starting at 6944 restaurant and leading to the waterfalls. This is a 40 minute walk from start to end on a jagged rock path. Be prepared. The nature is wonderful, could easily make a day of the trip and see more areas. All the areas are within walking distance to each other. Take food with you as there aren’t many places to buy except for the main ticket entrance (our first stop). #mapletrees #hiking #nationalpark ##scenicspotguide #travelinspiration #momentsmission

Taking advantage of the nice weather, I went to Siming Mountain in Yuyao, Ningbo some time ago. Everyone knows that Siming Mountain has beautiful autumn scenery, but in fact its spring is just as beautiful. In Xuanyan Village of Siming Mountain, the early cherry blossoms quietly exploded their first "pink cloud" a while ago. Generally, the early cherry blossoms only last about 10 days. However, if you miss the early cherry blossoms, don't worry. Because I think the late cherry blossoms in Siming Mountain are the real "finale". The following large tracts of cherry blossoms can dye the entire mountain into a pink ocean, so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off. Siming Mountain is quite suitable for self-driving travel. With just one step on the accelerator, you can take over the spring of the entire mountain. And most importantly, it is not far from Hangzhou by car. It takes about 2.5 hours to get to Yuyao Siming Mountain, which is very convenient. So this time, I will explore the route for you in advance and observe the progress of the spring scenery in Siming Mountain. This year, the cherry blossoms in Xuanyan Village are in full bloom in early to mid-March. When I went there, the late cherry blossoms had not yet begun to bloom. The best spring scenery in Siming Mountain is around the end of March to early April. In spring, you can choose a few places to visit. As usual, I will share with you the self-driving route of this one-day tour in Siming Mountain: Siming Lake-Liangnong Ancient Town-Dalan Town-Yazhuang Village-Shangmagang Cherry Blossom Base-Maowuo Ancient Village-Xuanyan Village. I personally feel that the pace of this self-driving route is quite comfortable. I went there to see the early cherry blossoms, so I drove around Xuanyan Village for a while. If you plan to see the evening cherry blossoms, you can choose to go to Xuanyan Village or not, because it takes about an hour to get there. Siming Lake Siming Lake is larger than West Lake, its area is twice that of West Lake. You can park your car in a nearby parking space and then take a walk along the lakeshore. There is a tall and scattered redwood forest nearby. Although it looks a bit bleak now, it gives people a different kind of beauty. It is very pleasant to just drive along the lake, and you can see the beautiful scenery of lakes and mountains from the car window. There are no crowds here, you can slow down and feel the tranquility and beauty for a moment. If there are shareholders who like cycling, you can bring a bicycle! There is a dedicated cycling path here, and there are not many people here, so it is quite leisurely to ride a bike against the wind. Hanging Rock Village In the hinterland of Siming Mountain, there is a small village called Xuanyan Village. Around mid-March every year, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, but this year due to weather conditions, they bloomed a few days earlier. When I walked into the village, I saw houses surrounded by cherry trees everywhere. Occasionally, I could see a few villagers sitting in front of their houses and chatting. It really had a pastoral feel. By the way, the cherry blossoms in Xuanyan Village are early cherry blossoms with white petals. If you want to see the late cherry blossoms later, you can just focus on the ones in Dalan Town. In the village, you don’t need any strategy. Just walk into any path and you will encounter cherry blossoms that can be seen everywhere in the yard. Standing under the cherry tree, any shot you take will turn out great. There are also some simple farm restaurants here. If you have dining needs, you can consider going there. However, when there are many people, the food will be served slowly. Dalan Town When it comes to places to enjoy spring in Siming Mountain, I recommend Dalan. When the late cherry blossoms bloom, this is definitely the most photogenic section of the winding mountain road. Dalan Town is not only China's professional cherry blossom base, but also the largest tea-producing town in Zhejiang, with over 20,000 acres of tea gardens. Of course, the beauty of Dalan Town is not limited to spring. It is quite presentable all year round. In spring, you can go to Shangmagang to see thousands of acres of late cherry blossoms, with large patches of pink cherry blossoms. In summer, the mountains are full of greenery and are a great place to escape the heat. In autumn, the persimmons in Shilin Village hang high on the branches, and the golden fruits set off the quaint village.

However, when we arrived, it was already four o’clock in the afternoon, and the sun was blocked by the mountain, and the whole village was gloomy.😔 There are two big ginkgo trees at the entrance of the village, but because of the poor light, the photo effect is average, so we just drove away.

From November to December, the maple leaves and ginkgo trees in Siming Mountain change color, like a colorful painting.

There are various vegetation landscapes here, including evergreen broad-leaved forests, Cryptomeria fortunei corridors, Golden Larch forests, and cypress forests. In autumn, the maple leaves gradually turn red, and the entire Siming Mountain looks like an overturned palette, colorful and beautiful. The red maples all over the mountains, burning like flames, have become a paradise for photography enthusiasts. In winter, Siming Mountain will be covered with snow, turning into a silver-clad world of ice and snow. Rime, icicles and other unique landscapes can be seen everywhere, like an ice and snow kingdom in a fairy tale. 💧【Water system is dynamic and adds charm】 Siming Mountain runs nearly north-south, dividing the mountain area into two major water systems, the Yongjiang River system in the east and the Cao'e River system in the west. The mountain stream flows gently, the water hits the rocks, splashing white water. Strolling along the stream, listening to the sound of flowing water, feeling the coolness of the water splashing on your face, it seems as if all the fatigue has been washed away. In some valleys, there are also spectacular waterfalls, such as the Baishuichong Waterfall. The waterfall hangs down from the mountain, as spectacular as the Milky Way falling from the sky. The water vapor is filled, and a beautiful rainbow is formed under the sunlight. 🏛️【Profound historical and cultural heritage】 Siming Mountain not only has beautiful natural scenery, but also has a profound historical and cultural heritage.

The Siming Mountains in autumn are a burst of colors. 💗 (1) Danshan Chishui Scenic Area Located in the heart of the Siming Mountains, this area is named after the 'Red Rock Reflecting Stream.' It features natural landscapes, Taoist culture, and the rich ancient village style of eastern Zhejiang. Sheer cliffs, peculiar rocks, ancient paths, flowing streams, waterfalls, old bridges, ancient villages, and persimmon forests form a picturesque and magnificent landscape. Taoists honor it as the 'Ninth Heaven.' The scenic area has pebble paths and stone steps. The glass bridge and glass slide require an additional fee. If you don't want to walk on the glass bridge, you can skip it. The mountain top is somewhat dilapidated, but the water pools at the foot of the mountain are very clear, with rapid flowing water where children can play. There are also small fish. 💗 (2) Shilin Village Named for its abundant 'Diao Hong' persimmons. Shilin Village is surrounded by mountains and lush bamboo forests. It is not only beautiful but also retains its original rustic charm. The entire village is inhabited by the Shen family. According to the family genealogy, the Shen family's ancestor was the tenth son of King Wen of Zhou, who was granted land in Shen and took the name of the place. His descendants later settled here. The village has an ancient well with clear, pure water that is warm in winter and cool in summer, serving as the drinking water source for the entire village. Hence, the saying 'One village, one surname, one family, one ancient well for the whole village.' There are various small shops at the village entrance, including old-fashioned popcorn vendors, adding to the atmosphere with a loud pop. Persimmons are sold everywhere, but remember to choose the soft ones; unripe ones can cause a numbing sensation. There are plenty of places to eat and drink, including many farmhouses and guesthouses. Shilin Village has many narrow alleys that are great for photos. There are many persimmon trees, and the roads are all pebble paths, so hold your little ones' hands. The villagers are very friendly and seem to live a leisurely life. 💗 (3) Shenxiu Valley The scenery in Shenxiu Valley is truly like a fairyland on earth. The green is vibrant, the red maples are bright, and the ginkgo trees are a vivid green, all blending together beautifully, making it hard to resist capturing the moment. 💗 (4) Liangnong Ancient Town Liangnong Ancient Town has no commercial atmosphere and retains the tranquility and leisure of a Jiangnan ancient town. If you like glutinous rice cakes, try the Liangnong specialty, Liangnong Rice Cake. 💗 (5) Siming Lake Metasequoia Wetland Siming Lake Metasequoia Wetland: The scenery is picturesque and perfect for photos! If I had to recommend one spot, it would be the Metasequoia Wetland! Besides the red railing road, don't miss the scenery near the lake.

This scenic area can be said to be one of the least worthwhile ones I've visited over the years. The roads are bad, the scenery is mediocre, the ticket is expensive, the location is remote, the roads are narrow, and transportation is inconvenient. The scenic spots are scattered, requiring self-driving, and then you can finish touring one spot in just 20 minutes. Well, I've said enough about the bad aspects, so let's mention one or two good things. Located deep in Siming Mountain, between Yuyao and Fenghua, it's a natural oxygen bar with very fresh air. 🌟Highlight Feature: Good air 💰Average Spending: 50 ⏳Tour Time: 2 hours
