Quzhou in Zhejiang, a severely underrated treasure of a tourist city

When it comes to Quzhou, what comes to mind is the city that can eat the spiciest food in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai, but little do people know that Quzhou, also known as 'the Southeastern Portal and the Holy Land of Confucius in the South,' is also the most polite historical city in Zhejiang! This place is not along the coast, but it is the intersection of four provinces, creating its unique cultural heritage. With mountains and waters, and cultural ancient towns, it is a place that Xu Xiake had to visit three times~ I regret not discovering this treasure city on the edge of the south of the Yangtze River earlier! I have organized a two-day and one-night travel itinerary · ✅Recommended Itinerary DAY1: Jianglang Mountain - Nianbadu - Xiaronshan Village DAY2: Root Palace Buddha Country - Xiayu Village - Shuiting Street - Tianwang Tower - Quzhou Confucius Temple 🏠Accommodation: Xipo·Jiangshan Holiday Homestay 🚗Transportation Advice: Self-driving is more convenient, 3h from Hangzhou. Or take the high-speed train to Quzhou Station/Jiangshan Station, then rent a car. ⚠️Most scenic spots in Quzhou are free from Monday to Friday, and you can make a reservation on the spot. · 📸Attractions Introduction 1⃣Jianglang Mountain Known as 'the first strange peak of Danxia in the country,' come here to experience the one-line sky and feel the wonder of nature's craftsmanship. 2⃣Nianbadu The 'Nianba Shop' in Jin Yong's writings, located deep in the Xianxia Mountain Range of Jiangshan, Quzhou, National Geographic calls this place 'a dream lost in the mountains.' 3⃣Xiaronshan Village A traditional ancient village located on thousands of acres of terraced fields, after the entire village relocated, the old houses were transformed into the current 'Xipo·Jiangshan Holiday Homestay.' Streams flow through the village, and after the rain, clouds and mist linger, like a fairyland. 4⃣Root Palace Buddha Country The largest root carving museum in the world, the root carving works are very shocking, and the architecture of the park is also grand and majestic. 5⃣Xiayu Village One of the top ten beautiful villages in China, drive along Majin Creek from here, and the scenery along the way is very beautiful. 6⃣Shuiting Gate Climbing up to Shuiting Gate, you can overlook the whole view of the old street, and you can also take a picture of the church and Tianwang Tower in the same frame. 7⃣Quzhou Confucius Temple There are more than 2,000 Confucius temples in the world, but there are only two Confucius family temples, one is Confucius' hometown in Qufu, Shandong, and the other is in Quzhou, known as 'the Southern School.' The ticket here is a mini version of the Analects, worth collecting. · 🧳Travel tips Of course, you will bring heavier clothes and luggage when you go out in winter, so take the newly bought 24-inch American Tourister diagonal luggage for this trip~ It starts with appearance, the diagonal design on the surface of the box is very special, and it is also highly recognizable, the middle diagonal collision color strip has given four color options 'black white yellow green,' change it as you like~ Loyal to quality, the wheels are smooth, stable, and quiet! Even on the stone roads of Quzhou's ancient town, it's all green lights, no bumps! Don't worry about having too much luggage✌🏻 ·
