Zhejiang 5-day itinerary guide, stepping into the forest, stepping into the poetic landscape

I have crossed rivers and seas, passed through deserts and grasslands, but unintentionally, I forgot the forest. Perhaps, because it shattered itself, more than 9500 forest tourist spots are scattered in every corner of China, because they are too common, they are ignored. This time, in the name of forest tourism, stepping into Zhejiang, in the primitive nature of the forest wetland, watching the poetic dwelling of birds, comfortable life; in the mottled cobblestones of the ancient forest road, touching the vicissitudes of history, chanting the poems of a thousand years; in the cloud and mist fairyland of the forest park, listening to the legend of the 'Shennong tasting herbs', 'Sun Simiao living in seclusion'. Traveling in Zhejiang Zhejiang is convenient for transportation, many places can be directly reached by high-speed rail, but because this time the points are scattered in various places, for convenience, I still chose to drive. Itinerary D1⃣️Ningbo Hangzhou Bay Wetland Park ✅Hangzhou Bay Wetland Park (3h) In the afternoon, arrive at Hangzhou Bay Wetland Park, on the south bank of Hangzhou Bay, on the west side of the cross-sea bridge, a natural wetland of 63.8 square kilometers, it has vast tidal flats, and large areas of reed swamps and wasteland, it is a paradise for birds, and also the closest place for humans to nature. D2⃣️Xinchang Spotted Bamboo Ancient Village➡️Xiake Ancient Road➡️Tianmu Mountain ✅Spotted Bamboo Ancient Village (1h) The exploration of Xiake Ancient Road starts from the Spotted Bamboo Ancient Village where Xu Xiake once stayed. ✅Xiake Ancient Road (4h) This is an ancient road full of legends, excavated by Xie Gonglingyun, the founder of landscape poetry, welcomed the poet Taibai who came by singing, left the traveler Xu Xiake who studied the hydrological system of Tianmu Mountain, many literati who had feelings for mountains and rivers in history, all left their footprints here. ✅Tianmu Mountain (2h) On Tianmu Mountain, looking back from a high place, the prosperous Tang poetry. 'One Tianmu Mountain, half of the entire Tang poetry', the 'Complete Tang Poems' included more than 2000 poets, 450 of them, 20% of the poets, actually came here. D3⃣️Pujiang Maling Ancient Road➡️Qianwu Village Forest Home ✅Maling Ancient Road (3h) Stepping on the Maling Ancient Road, stepping into the time a thousand years ago. In time, there is pervasive gunpowder, endless merchants and market traders, a cup of tea and a cigarette at the post station. ✅Qianwu Village Forest Home (2h) When I arrived at Pujiang Qianwu, it was already dark, and I couldn't walk around in a comprehensive way, but I could still recognize the forest home in the night. The mountains are in the distance, the water is nearby, and in the village, there are homestays, coffee, and study rooms. Not high-end homestays that cost thousands of dollars a night, but real dwellings open to ordinary tourists. D5⃣️Quzhou Zimei Mountain National Forest Park Zimei Mountain National Forest Park, has the largest original Taxus chinensis forest in the country, rare strange peaks and canyons, many flying waterfalls and flowing springs.
