Afterward, we hiked to Geling Wonderland, located on Yanshan Mountain in Fotang Village, at the southern foot of Deqing, at an altitude of 570 meters. Despite occasional hikers, the area remains largely untouched, preserving its pristine beauty. The route features natural landscapes such as the One-Line Sky, Three Immortals Stone, God of Wealth Cave, Monk Stone, Heavenly Lake, Eight Immortal Caves, Mirror Stone, and Frog Watching the Moon, all remarkably lifelike. The lush green mountains, the gurgling streams, the shadows of bamboo, and the lush forests make this truly a paradise on earth. We passed by Dadouwu Reservoir, known as the "Little Jiuzhaigou of Northern Zhejiang" for its clear waters and breathtaking scenery, resembling an emerald gem embedded in a sea of ​​bamboo.

This route offers a refreshing dip in the water, a breathtaking view from a height, and a walk along a primeval forest-like ridgeline. On either side, you'll find fragrant mountains, vibrant bird calls, and cascading waterfalls. Depending on the trail conditions, you'll also have the added bonus of a climb!

Geling Wonderland: The beautiful Geling Wonderland scenic area is located in Geling Village, part of the Moganshan National Scenic Area. Legend has it that in ancient times, a Taoist priest named Ge Hong traveled alone from the north to the Buddhist temple grounds of Fatou. Gazing upon Geling Mountain from afar, he saw an auspicious aura shrouded in purple light, deeming it a perfect sanctuary for spiritual cultivation. He therefore settled there to cultivate. He also frequently ascended the mountain to collect herbs and provide medical treatment to the nearby villagers, earning him the title of "Living Bodhisattva" for his generosity. Later generations built the "Ge Hong Temple" at the site of his cultivation, leaving behind historical sites such as the "Three Immortals Stone" and the "Immortal Cave."
