Commonly known as "Nine Creeks and Eighteen Streams", it is a "Y"-shaped stream formed by the confluence of many small streams. After every rain, smoke rises from the woods on the nearby Bajue Mountain, and the valley is full of mist, forming a beautiful "smoky tree" landscape.
Jiuxi is about 5.5 kilometers long. Along the stream are lush trees and large tea plantations, making it an excellent summer resort.
There are three entrances and exits, namely Longjing Village on the upper left of the "Y", Yangmeiling on the upper right, and Jiuxi Road at the bottom. The intersection in the middle is called "Xizhongxi", where Jiuxi Yanshu Park, Li'an Temple, waterfalls and other attractions are concentrated.
You can choose your own route, but the recommended route is Jiuxi Road - Xizhongxi - Longjing Village. In addition to walking, you can drive along Jiuxi Road - Xizhongxi - Yangmeiling, and there is a parking lot in the scenic area.

Jiuxi Misty Trees should be connected to Yunqi Bamboo Path. Those who are willing to hike should be able to walk from Yunqi to Jiuxi. I returned to the boarding point from Yunqi and continued to take bus 103 to Jiuxi.
After getting off at Jiuxi bus station, if you walk to Jiuxi Yanshu Waterfall, it may take about 40 minutes. I chose to take a 5-yuan minibus. If it is spring and you have plenty of time, I still recommend you to walk there. The scenery along the way is also very nice.
Jiuxi Yanshu is probably the most beautiful in the late autumn red leaf season. It is a very quiet place.
Walking all the way from Longjing Village is "Nine Creeks in the Mist", one of the "New Ten Scenic Spots of West Lake". Many locals come here to take photos and have fun. There are also places with particularly beautiful scenery such as Meijiawu and Yangmeiling nearby. Many homestays and restaurants also choose to open here.
The water here is slightly green.
TIPS: If you want to walk from "Jiuxi Yanshu" to where you can take a taxi, which is 3 kilometers to Qiantang River, friends with insufficient leg strength are advised to take a taxi down the mountain.
Jiuxi Yanshu is a poetic name, also known as Jiuxi Shibajian, which is one of the new ten scenic spots of West Lake. Hangzhou was rainy in September, and Jiuxi and Shibajian were misty in the drizzle, beautiful as a poem! In the distance, mountain birds chirped, and water flowed under your feet. Walking on the rugged mountain road, one step at a time, a beautiful scene! It is said that when the maple leaves are red, it is the most beautiful moment of the year, with colorful mountains and mountains, and the vast water is misty! I like the scenery here so much. The natural landscape is rarely ingenious. There are fewer and fewer places like this without commercial atmosphere. It is really worth a visit!
I strongly do not recommend Jiuxi Shibajian - Jiuxi Yanshu. It may be suitable for cooling off in the summer, but in the autumn, the scenic area has a buyer show. You can search for photos of Jiuxi Yanshu on the Internet, and they are all beautiful. In fact, these are photos that have been photoshopped to pieces, otherwise it would be really horrible. Don't be fooled by the photos, you can't see the beauty. I took a photo of it in gray-green color, and couldn't see the layers.
The clear springs in the mountains are the favorite place for children to play. When we went there, there were people wading in the water, so it seemed that the water was not very cold.
Jiuxi is a place I personally like very much. In summer, you can escape the heat and there are few people. In autumn, the leaves are red, green, yellow, red and blue, colorful and gorgeous. For details, please see "The Scenery at the Doorstep Series (VI) - Jiuxi's Late Autumn is as Beautiful as a Painting" https://imfw.cn/l/22477809.
Hiking along the Jiuxi Yanshu, you will see mountains and peaks, winding paths, flowing water, and chirping mountain birds. It forms a wonderful scene of misty green mountains, low white clouds, and thousands of valleys competing to flow down the Jiuxi. Especially after the rain, the treetops of the mountains are surrounded by clouds and mist, as if smoking, so it is called Yanshu. So it is praised as Jiuxi Yanshu. Although there is no entrance fee, there are complete tourist facilities along the way, and you can see clean and tidy toilets on the roadside from time to time. The autumn here is really beautiful! It cannot be expressed in words.
Jiuxi Yanshu is also called Jiuxi Shibajian, and the name "Jiuxi Shibajian" is more well-known. This place was very famous in the Southern Song Dynasty. The name "Jiuxi" comes from the fact that there are 9 streams here: Qingwan, Hongfa, Fangjia, Baizhang, Tangjia, Foshou, Yunqi, Zhutou, and Xiaokang. Now Jiuxi Yanshu is listed as one of the new ten scenic spots of West Lake in Hangzhou, and has the reputation of "Little Jiuzhaigou". Jiuxi Yanshu on a sunny day is incredibly beautiful, with blue sky, white clouds, red maples, green trees, streams, and tea gardens forming a gorgeous picture. On a cloudy day, Jiuxi Yanshu also has a unique style. The fog on a cloudy day is pervasive, and the beautiful scenery is looming, presenting a hazy beauty. It is not only rated as one of the new ten scenic spots of West Lake, but also firmly occupies the TOP1 of many folk autumn appreciation lists, and locals flock here!
Jiuxi Yanshu is really a beautiful place, and it has a different style from the tranquility of Yunqi Bamboo Trail across the mountain. There are either gurgling streams or lush tea mountains on the roadside, which is really suitable for taking photos. Look, I met a couple taking wedding photos on the road, wishing you a happy marriage
On both sides of the path are lush mountains and overlapping tea plantations. Walking in the mountains, breathing the purest air in the mountains, feeling the coolness in the lungs, a natural oxygen bar! When visiting Jiuxi, you must slow down your pace and relax your mind.
Jiuxi is a place I have always longed for. Apart from the shock brought to me by the photos of Jiuxi's autumn scenery, it must be the beautiful names such as Jiuxi Smoky Trees and Jiuxi Eighteen Streams that attracted me.
So, when I learned that the exterior scenes were being filmed in Jiuxi, I jumped for joy.
When we actually arrived and saw the scenery in front of us, I once suspected that I had come to the wrong place, but the big words "Nine Creeks Smoke Trees" on the stone tablet clearly reminded me that this was the right place. The road was being repaired when we went there, so the scenery...
Walking down along Longjing Village, you will reach Jiuxi Shibajian. At the end of Jiuxi Shibajian is Jiuxi Yanshu. You can obviously feel that there are more people there, and the scenery is average, so we didn’t stay for long.
In fact, you can also hike to Jiuxi Yanshu from Yangmeiling. We only walked a short distance in the opposite direction from Jiuxi Yanshu. The trees in this section are taller and the forest is older and deeper.
Jiuxi Shibajian is a small highlight in the back mountain of West Lake. The stream water appears blue from certain angles, but overall it is delicate but not stunning. In particular, there is a strange section of mountain road. When you climb up, you will find that it is surrounded by vegetation. There is no viewing platform at all, and instead you feel fooled.
I called a Didi and was taken directly to Linhai. The water here is crystal clear. Many parents who went there on weekends brought their children to play in the water. The surprise came from the waterfall. I never thought that there was another waterfall.
The air was slightly cool and misty. The sky and trees were clean. My heart seemed to be clean as well. I had no distractions. I just wanted to walk like this, quietly.
The autumn colors in early December are still charming and worth a visit.
The misty trees in Jiuxi seem to be this color in spring, summer, autumn and winter.
It has beautiful scenery, suitable temperature and is a good place for cool hiking.
I think this attraction is more worth visiting than Xixi, it's free and less crowded! Beautiful scenery, picturesque scenery, and fresh air~~~·
After getting off the bus, you still have to walk two kilometers to the scenic spot. There are so many private cars along the way that it is difficult to ride. Where is the scenic spot bus? I didn't see a single one. It was so difficult to see the scenery. I didn't want to go there if I didn't see the scenery.
There is nothing to see during the Spring Festival in winter. Spring and autumn are the best. The water is clear in spring and there are red maple leaves in autumn! So this place is suitable for spring and autumn. The mountain is full of Longjing tea trees. The parking fee during the Spring Festival is 30 yuan per hour, which was 10 yuan before.
I went there in October. I felt that it was not worth walking 10 kilometers just to see this tree. Besides, the bright colors on the Internet are mostly photoshopped.
There are tea mountains on both sides and a stream in the middle. It is cool and pleasant in summer and the scenery is beautiful. Friendly reminder: be sure to take anti-mosquito measures, otherwise...
The last stop in Hangzhou was here
Beautiful in the drizzle
But traffic is a problem. You can't get out without a car.
The first scenic spot around West Lake, I feel pretty good
Xiao Jiuzhai is definitely more beautiful in spring and autumn. As a Sichuanese, I think it is so beautiful that I can’t help but linger...
The coolest memories of my two summer trips to Hangzhou. Although the temperature was close to 40 degrees every day, the Jiuxi Yanshu was still cool, and I splashed some water from time to time to refresh myself, which really made me feel alive.
After visiting Longjing Tea Garden, we walked towards Jiuxi. After passing Longjing Tea Garden, a cool and clear stream came into view. This is Jiuxi Shibajian. Jiuxi Shibajian is located in the mountains west of West Lake, a famous scenic spot in Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province. It winds 7 kilometers from Longjing to Qiantang River.
A free scenic spot in Hangzhou. I was attracted by its beautiful scenery when I first entered the scenic area. It was so beautiful. There were many photography enthusiasts taking pictures. Some people said it had a bit of the flavor of Jiuzhaigou. I walked forward and saw many tea gardens. If I continued to walk forward, the beautiful scenery was gone, only the woods on both sides of the road. It took 1 hour to complete the tour.
I've been there many times. It's a great place for hiking, especially in the summer when it's cool.
It was far beyond my expectation, and the scenery was breathtaking! I took bus No. 318, and the scenery along the way was beautiful.
The best viewing point, there are many people taking wedding photos, but the only sign is not very eye-catching, like the small waterfall is not easy to find without asking people
Jiuxi Yanshu must be visited in all four seasons to be complete, it is so beautiful~
Sunset in Hangzhou
China is so big, but my wife loves Hangzhou the most. She goes there three or four times a year. My wife said that you must write about Hangzhou in your last article. I said, "Oh, let's write about Hangzhou when we met."
Watching the sunset in different places will naturally give you different views.
The fish watching place in Huagang is dynamic and quiet.
The autumn moon is above Pinghu Lake, the wind is gentle and the sun is bright.
The spring morning on Su Causeway, in the red dust, between water and clouds.
There is a broken bridge among the lingering snow, but the broken bridge is not broken and the setting sun is not fading.
In the winding garden with lotus flowers, the setting sun misses the spring rain, and the withered branches miss the summer flowers.
The willow waves are full of willow catkins, and the spring scenery is suddenly visible.
In the sunset of Lei Feng, the Nanping bell rings late to mourn the setting sun, while Baoshu still smiles in the spring breeze.
When I crossed the road, I was in the city, watching the sunset in Hangzhou.
The boat was swaying, and the big brother who was rowing the boat told me that the lake water was clear because the surging river flowed into it, and the lake was as bright as a mirror, which was set against the lush green mountains.
The Su Causeway, which is buried by human heads in the distance, is also the Lover's Causeway of Hangzhou. If you can hold hands on it, your love will last forever.
I listened with my ears and smiled in my heart. It’s been a long time since I saw the scenery of West Lake.
It has been raining in Shanghai for a long time, and my mood has also been gloomy for a long time. On a moonlit night under the Twenty-Four Bridges, where can I find the beautiful lady to teach me how to play the flute?
At this moment, I am in another city, the lake is singing quietly, my heart is surging, and I am watching the sunset that belongs to me. The hibiscus flowers in the twenty-four cities have been famous for their profusion of flowers since ancient times.
The blue waves of West Lake bring me Xizi, and the afterglow of sunset gives me a blush. No matter where you are, the clear sunset and the pure face.
Watching the sunset with different people will naturally give you different moods.
The scenery is picturesque, the view is pleasant and the air is fresh. A good place to go on weekends!
Nine Creeks and Trees in the Mist is one of the ten new scenic spots of West Lake, commonly known as "Nine Creeks and Eighteen Streams". It is located at the foot of Jiguanlong in the mountains west of West Lake. It connects to Longjing in the north and Qiantang River in the south. It originates from the foot of Yangmeiling in Wengjia Mountain, and converges with Qingwan, Hongfa, Tangjia, Xiaokang, Foshi, Baizhang, Yunqi, Qingtou and Fangjia Creeks on the way, winding and flowing into Qianjiang River. Eighteen Streams refers to the large number of small streams and gurgling springs.
Yangmeiling is now a first-level protection area of the West Lake Longjing Tea Base and a designated unit for national gift tea. Along the way from Yangmeiling and Longjing Village to Jiuxi Yanshu, there are many streams flowing through, leaving a piece of fertile land that is very suitable for Longjing planting. Drink a pot of tea and chat with your confidant! Isn't it a pleasure?
"Nine streams and eighteen streams are the best places in the mountains." Nine streams and eighteen streams are located in the mountains to the west of West Lake. They meander for 7 kilometers from Longjing to Qiantang River. The water of the Nine Streams meanders and turns nine times before flowing out, so it is called Nine Streams. All the water that does not flow into the stream is called a stream. There are a total of eighteen streams, which is several times nine, so it is called "Little Jiuzhai". The unique natural conditions also provide a natural playground for children here.
Jiuxi and Shibajian meet in front of the Xizhongxi Restaurant at the foot of Bajue Mountain. Along the way, there are mountains and peaks, tea gardens, winding paths, flowing water, and chirping mountain birds. On sunny days, the scenery is beautiful, while on cloudy days, the clouds are misty. If you come to Hangzhou for tourism, if you have time, it is recommended to walk in Jiuxi. The ten-mile long valley is winding, with undulating mountains on both sides and a gurgling stream in the middle. Its terrain looks like a "Y" character.
Jiuxi Yanshu is the connecting part of the Y-shaped road. There are two forks on the road. The left one passes through Jiuxi Shibajian to Longjing Village, and the right one reaches Yangmeiling. The water of Jiuxi is clear and beautiful, which is really unique. In the upper reaches of Jiuxi, there are many tea fields on both sides, layer by layer, which are extremely beautiful.
Jiuxi has beautiful scenery, and many people often take photo albums here. There are two intertwined trees near Jiuxi Yanshu Pavilion, and many newlyweds take wedding photos every day. In short, you must go to Jiuxi Shibajian when you go to Hangzhou, where you can see the most beautiful Hangzhou.
It is suitable to go shopping when there are few people, but the roads are narrow and there are safety hazards because people and cars are mixed.
Not bad, I went there in spring. The color of the water in this small pond is very beautiful. Some people took wedding photos there, and it was beautiful with the number of flowers blooming. But this attraction is too small
After getting off the bus, we walked into Jiuxi Scenic Area. Why walk? Because I want to see nine streams, ten streams, and eight streams. But I would like to remind you that if you get off at Jiuxi Station, you should take a taxi directly to Jiuxi Yanshu. Although there are many people playing with water on the way, don’t be afraid. You can still step on water on the way from Jiuxi Yanshu to Longjing Village. If you are walking down from Longjing Village, you can walk to play with water and see tea trees. The distance from Jiuxi to Longjing is about 6 kilometers.
Jiuxi Smoky Trees is one of the eight new scenic spots in Hangzhou (or ten, I forgot). I came to Jiuxi because of a line in the lyrics: "Hidden in the mist of Jiuxi". It's really fun to play in the water in summer, but you should protect the environment and don't litter. I don't want such a scene to disappear. I was wearing canvas shoes that day, but I couldn't help but take them off to step on the water! ! I like it! It's cool, and it's not hot at all in Shibajian.
I should have brought slippers earlier. Many people walked on the water. It was so cool. The scenery here is really great and the water is very clear. Many people here take wedding photos and artistic photos.
Suitable for weekend trips, hiking and enjoying the scenery along the way!
Unfortunately we arrived too late and it was already dark.
It is known as the Little Jiuzhaigou of Hangzhou. I think it should be more beautiful in autumn, with a sense of layers and the colors are also very patchwork.
Jiuxi Smoky Trees is one of the ten new scenic spots of West Lake, commonly known as "Nine Creeks and Eighteen Streams". Jiuxi connects Longjing in the north and Qiantang River in the south. Along the way, there are mountains and ridges, tea gardens everywhere, winding paths, flowing water, and mountain birds chirping. The scenery is beautiful on sunny days, and the clouds are misty on cloudy days. The trees here are very tall and dense. The disturbances from the outside world seem to be blocked by the trees thousands of miles away. Jiuxi really made me feel the breath of the mountains.
A great place to escape the heat in summer
At the end of the Nine Creeks is the "Nine Creeks Smoke Trees" Park, one of the ten new scenic spots of West Lake (tickets are two yuan, free with park cards, save as much as you can!). When you enter the gate, you will see a stone tablet with "Nine Creeks Smoke Trees" written on it. In front of the tablet lies a lake, the lake water is emerald green, and you can see the bottom. A waterfall on the opposite bank pours down, falls on the stone, and water drops splash everywhere. Walk along the lakeside path to the waterfall and look up. The water vapor hits your face, and your fatigue is slightly reduced. Go up the stone steps to the top of the mountain, and there is a pavilion on the top of the mountain. From the pavilion, walk around the lake. The scenic area is not large, just around the lake.
The waterfall in Jiuxi is very beautiful, falling slowly from the mountain. There are fewer tourists on rainy days, so we took some nice pictures. Because of the rain, layers of fog rose from the mountain. The driver said that the Longjing here grows well because it absorbs the fog. Because of the rain, the road leading to the mountain was closed, so we could only look at the scenery from below.
I was attracted by the picture 1. I walked a long way to get there and was shocked... It was a very small place and the water was very dirty!
Jiuxi Yanshu is a pond surrounded by a row of trees. Behind the trees is a mountain with streams and small waterfalls on the mountain. It doesn’t look like anything special in the summer.
The scenery becomes even more beautiful after the trees turn yellow and red in autumn.
Smoke engulfs the pond, willow cannons guard the sea tower
The winding stream is shrouded in mist all the way, a beautiful place
A great place to escape the summer heat, with nice water, nice trees and a cool feel.
It runs from Yangmei Ridge along the stream to Qiantang River. The stream is clear and winding, with emerald green tea gardens and towering ancient trees on both sides. Due to the high humidity, the scenery is shrouded in mist and is like a dream.
You will arrive here when you come out of Longjing Village. This place is good for taking pictures and it seems you can go hiking, but I just took two pictures and left.
The number of tourists that day was at a comfortable level, and everyone lined up to take tourist photos here. Although it was raining and foggy, it was still clear, unlike the West Lake which was really gray and you couldn't see anything. The scenery here is really good. There is also a small waterfall.
Friendly reminder: You can climb up to the top of the mountain from the waterfall, but there is only a small pavilion on the top of the mountain where you can rest. You can't see any scenery. I personally think it is not worth climbing. Don't ask me how I know = =
Take bus No. 27 to Longjing Tea House, first take the asphalt road through Longjing Village, and then enter the Jiuxi Shibajian Scenic Area. The scenic area is free of charge, the whole road is gravel, there are lush trees and tea gardens on the roadside, it is very comfortable to walk here on a rainy day, passing many streams, cool and fresh air, and few tourists. After walking to Xizhongxi, it is about two kilometers to Jiuxi Bus Station, but most of the road from Longjing is downhill, so it is not very tiring to walk.
It's a very quiet place, the air is very good, the hiking is very comfortable, the mountains are full of tea leaves, very beautiful, and there are many newlyweds taking wedding photos.
I think the most beautiful thing is the scenery along the way. There are several streams blocking the way. You can walk over them on the stone piers, or take off your shoes and wade through the water. You can enjoy the cool and smooth water!
The foggy weather made it difficult to see the other side of the river, but rows of fishing rods were clearly visible. The rumbling trains crossed the river, and Jiuxi was quiet now. There are many mountain roads in this area. Along the streams and tea fields, you can often see many mountain runners and cross-country racers passing through here. Mountain running in such an environment should be a kind of enjoyment. But as for me, just walking slowly is very suitable. I like the air and tea fields after the rain the most, which adds a lot of artistic conception compared to sunny days. The diffuse mist makes the distant mountains look more ethereal, just like the landscape paintings that the masters sketched at will, casual and smart. A rain makes people feel like returning to the spring before the Ming Dynasty, and the tea leaves in the tea garden accidentally misunderstood and sprouted. After several days of rain, the stream gurgled and dingdonged. When the weather is better, you can come here to play in the water~
You must go. Although the journey is long, such beautiful scenery is worth the long journey. There are buses to go there, which is quite convenient. It is a free attraction.
The green shade of early summer, the light blue stamens of calamus, the huge hydrangea, the white wild roses, the bird songs that often linger in the ears, the sound of gurgling streams, the joy along the way is enough to surpass the water of a pool of nine streams.
I don't know what it's like to go there during the day. There are fewer people at night, but you can't see anything either. And the gurgling stream is not interesting after seeing Lu Village. So just smell the fragrance of the soil and tea leaves.
The Jiuxi Misty Trees are not stunning, not as pretty as the pictures on the Internet, and there are a lot of people.
Uh (⊙o⊙)... Maybe I went there at the wrong time. There wasn't much scenery, and the scenic area wasn't very big, and the water flow was very small. There were a lot of people taking wedding photos, which was a pity. I heard that the scenery is pretty good in autumn?
Although it was noon, there were still many tourists at the entrance of the scenic area. Surrounded by green waters and green mountains, this is really a good place to escape the summer heat. In the clear water, fish are swimming happily. In the distance, there are people taking wedding photos. This beautiful scenery is really suitable for shooting.
If you go out from here, you can see a deep pool, which is said to be the Little Jiuzhaigou. Because of the green color and the reflection of the maple trees, it is so colorful and beautiful that it dazzled me.
A place loved by locals, with good scenery, worth a visit
The entrance to Jiuxi Yanshu Scenic Area is still a certain distance away from the scenic spot. You can walk, ride a bike or take a taxi. It takes about an hour to walk (play while walking). You must take the small path and walk along the stream. There will be many different scenery~Tips: Bring enough water. There is no place to sell water except at the entrance of the scenic area, but there are many teahouses and restaurants. It is also very good to enjoy a cup of tea and a meal of Longjing shrimp.
There are two roads behind Jiuxi Yanshu, one leads to Longjing Village, and the other one was not noticed.
The essence of Jiuxi lies in the Smoky Trees - tea gardens are scattered around, springs are gurgling, and the winding paths lead into Jiuxi. Eighteen streams crisscross and look out, and crossing them is like walking in heaven. The Smoky Trees are the Lingxiao Palace, where all the gods in the sky gather.
On sunny days, the colorful and clear springs and waters are even better than Jiuzhaigou; on cloudy days, the mist and rain are hazy and it looks like a fairyland, so it is called "Smoke Trees".
The trees are small and beautiful. After stopping for a while, we headed towards the Qiantang River. Along the way, there were birds chirping and mountains rising one after another. As the saying goes:
The summer wind gradually blows,
The trees in the smoke are red, fat and green, thin.
The Hanxiu girl plays the zither.
The blue waves ripple on the branches~
Walk down the mountain from Longjing Village. First you will see Jiuxi Shibajian, then Jiuxi Yanshu, and finally you will reach the bank of Qiantang River. Of course, the most beautiful place is Jiuxi Yanshu. Lanlan Lake has the charm of Jiuzhaigou.
See the travel notes "Remembering Hangzhou - Beauty in the South of the Yangtze River" http://www.mafengwo.cn/i/6744236.html
The scenery here is really beautiful. It's nice to walk along the Qianlong Ancient Road and breathe some oxygen. However, the most terrible thing is the tourist scam here. I was staying in a homestay near the Zoo Station (bus station). At noon that day, I was going to Songcheng by bus. As I was walking, a man said that you were going in the wrong direction to West Lake. At first, I thought he was a kind person. Then I said to go to Songcheng. He said that was right, but it was not a good time to go there. We could go to Jiuxi first. Balabala introduced the tourist route of Jiuxi. At that time, I really didn't think that this would be a routine. I was kind enough to follow his recommendation and bought more than 1,000 tea leaves in the tea store. I checked it online and found out that I was deceived... Sure enough, there are not so many kind people in the tourist area. Be vigilant! (The reason why I found out was that when I came back today, an aunt also wanted to trick us. Later, when we said we had been there, we walked back without saying a word and continued to play the role of a kind passerby)
When I went there two years ago, there were few people, but the stone-paved road was interesting and the scenery on both sides was lush and green. Two years later, Jiuxi built narrow lanes, and the passing vehicles caused traffic jams from time to time. People could only shuttle between cars. I no longer had a good mood for sightseeing. I was disappointed and would not go there again, nor would I recommend it to my friends. If you want to go, please go on weekdays.
The most beautiful place I have visited in Hangzhou. It takes nearly two kilometers to walk from the intersection to the scenic spot. You can take the small path along the stream and tea garden instead of the asphalt road. The water flows gently, avoiding the people on the main road. The red maple trees and green water at the end are intertwined, like the residence of fairies. It is very beautiful.
"Nine Creeks and Smoky Trees" is one of the ten new scenic spots of West Lake, commonly known as "Nine Creeks and Eighteen Streams". The Nine Creeks originate from the foot of Yangmei Ridge on Wengjia Mountain, and converge with Qingwan, Hongfa, Tangjia, Xiaokang, Foshi, Baizhang, Yunqi, Qingtou and Fangjia Creeks, winding and flowing into Qianjiang River. The Eighteen Streams refer to the large number of small streams and gurgling springs.
Such a unique tree root is a great place for newlyweds to take wedding photos.
"Jiuxi Yanshu" is known as the Little Jiuzhaigou of Jiangnan, but the only drawback is that there are dead leaves floating on the surface of the pool and the bottom of the pool is pitch black, which greatly reduces its beauty.
From Jiuxi all the way to Yangmeiling and then to Hupao Road Siyanjing, the scenery along the way is still very good, there are many beautiful homestays. If you like hiking and taking pictures of the scenery, you can try this route. It is recommended to wear comfortable sports shoes
Tips: If you want to come here, please be sure to wear a pair of comfortable shoes!
The best time to see the waterfall is from April to October.
Like Jiuxi Misty Trees and Yunqi Bamboo Path, they are both considered one of the new ten scenic spots of West Lake. Along the way, there are mountains and ridges, tea gardens everywhere, winding paths and clear flowing water.
There are many places to take wedding photos in Jiuxi Yanshu, so you can imagine how beautiful the scenery is. There are also rushing waterfalls. We took some photos around and came back. In fact, we could continue to climb up, but the scenery felt very similar.
"Nine Creeks in the Mist" is one of the ten new scenic spots of West Lake. It is located at the foot of Jiguanlong in the mountains to the west of West Lake, connected to Longjing in the north and Qiantang River in the south. It has two sources: one is from the Lion Peak of Longjing, and the other is from Yangmei Ridge of Wengjia Mountain.
Jiuxi is located to the west of Yanxialing and to the south of Longjing Mountain. The water of Jiuxi twists and turns nine times before flowing out, so it is called Jiuxi.
The lush green is so unrestrained and natural, a pool of green cools the summer. Jiuxi's autumn, accompanied by red maples and green trees, must be very beautiful. When taking photos in Jiuxi, it is best to wear white.
The world-famous West Lake Longjing tea, also known as "Shifeng Longjing", is concentrated in the "Wengjia Mountain" around Longjing Village in West Lake, Hangzhou, and the "Wuyun Mountain", "Jiuxi Shibajian" and "Shili Langyao" around Meijiawu. The road between Jiuxi Yanshu and Longjing Village is where Jiuxi Shibajian is located. Jiuxi Shibajian can only be reached on foot. If you drive, there are many tourists and you can only drive slowly.
It rained heavily when we were returning, so we ran to the pavilion next to the smoke tree to take shelter from the rain. The rain in the mountains was very cold, and it was over my ankles. My feet were very painful after soaking. It took as long as we walked back to the B&B. When traveling on rainy days, you must take good protection.
