Tatoudi Ancient Village, Taishun, Wenzhou, Zhejiang. It is a quiet and quaint village located in the mountainous area at the junction of southern Zhejiang and northern Fujian. There is a pond in front of the village, and a vast expanse of land ahead with mountains in the distance. Behind the village is a gentle slope with dense bamboo forests and surrounded by mountains on both sides. The entire village is generally located according to the Feng Shui pattern of "Azure Dragon on the left, White Tiger on the right, Vermillion Bird in front, and Black Tortoise behind". Because the mountain is low and far away, there is a forest of green bamboo on the back mountain, which creates a clear and cheerful atmosphere for farming and studying. The pond in front of Tatoudi Village is round and large in size, like a mirror. Some of the ancient houses in the village are reflected in the water, which has a unique charm.

Cool autumn river hiking was organized by one of travel groups in Shanghai. 12 km of walking, discovering new villages, rocks, canyons and giant rocks. . Scenery is breathtaking. It takes only 4 hours from Shanghai by bus to get there and enjoy nature. Good reason to leave noisy Shanghai and spend all day close to mountains with nice people.
