We set off for the Yuegong Mountain Ancient Trail. The team leader explained the itinerary and precautions to everyone in the car. The friends shared their travel experiences, got to know each other, and laughed all the way!

Arriving at the hike's starting point, Dongshan Village, nestled in the Chijin Mountains of Tangxi Town, the village is nestled against the mountainside, also known as Yuegong Mountain. The village boasts a well-proportioned layout of houses, dating back to the Song Dynasty. The village exudes a natural and quaint atmosphere. After gathering our gear, we ascended the Yuegong Mountain Trail, passing through the reservoir and the village. On the hillside ahead, 300 acres of pink muhly grass were in full bloom, with clouds of pink drifting in the wind, forming a vibrant sea of flowers. Here, tourists rested, grabbed a snack, and took photos.

Continue your journey at the right time. Cao Cao wrote in "Viewing the Sea": "Looking at the vast sea from Jieshi in the east, you can see how calm the water is and how towering the mountains and islands are." Climb to the top of the sea-viewing pavilion, where the mountaintop is filled with the fragrance of tea and lush greenery. When the weather is good, you can overlook Xiangshan Harbor, where the sea and the sky meet and ships shuttle back and forth. It's so magnificent!

Follow the trail down the mountain to Meixi Reservoir, stretch your legs, and get on the bus for the return trip.

We have arrived at our departure point, and our trip has concluded! Goodbye, fellow tourists!
