Hiking the Phoenix Mountain Ancient Trail - Reflecting on the past and present, freeing the mind

The Phoenix Mountain Ancient Trail is the oldest official road on Phoenix Mountain in Zhuhai. It is a trade route from the coast to the inland, with granite-paved stone roads and stone bridges hidden in the mountains. Some parts have been renovated now, and railings have been added to the more dangerous sections. The breeze is gentle, the sun is just right. Starting from the front of the shrine, immersed in the lush deep forest, stepping on the stone ancient road, breathing the fresh air filled with negative oxygen ions, admiring the scenery along the way, imagining the hardships of the ancients crossing mountains and ridges to transport goods. Climbing high and looking far, the ancient road on the mountain is like a golden snake dancing in the green mountains. The Yangliao Reservoir is a pool of clear water in the towering mountains, like a gem embedded, emitting a blue light. Leaning on the railing and looking far away, the endless sea is in the distance, and the beautiful scenery of Zhuhai is in full view. 📍Detailed address: Departure address: Lishenqian, Xiangzhou District, Zhuhai City 🚗Traffic strategy: Self-driving: Navigate to Lishenqian, Xiangzhou District, Zhuhai City, and you can park on the surrounding roads.
