Meet at the designated location of China-TravelNote.

We set off on time at 7:30. The tour leader will lead everyone to interact with each other on the way, with laughter and joy all the way. He will introduce himself and explain the itinerary on the bus. Before we knew it, we had arrived at our destination.

10:30

Arriving at Xianding Temple Scenic Area, after a brief warm-up, we crossed the Bodhidharma Ancient Trail and began our hike. Walking along the Bodhidharma Ancient Trail, we explored the thousand-year-old ginkgo trees. Among the 480 Southern Dynasties temples and countless pavilions, we finally found Xianding Temple's famous 1,500-year-old ginkgo tree amidst the mist and rain.

After the hike, we drove to Lucun Old Street. Lucun, a thousand-year-old town built along the Luxi River, boasts flowing water, whitewashed walls and black tiles, stone pavements, and the thriving indigenous people. Lucun is small, yet full of charm. It has been the birthplace of silk production since ancient times and has produced 36 Jinshi scholars, demonstrating its rich history and heritage.

After several years of development, Lu Village is no longer monotonous. It has the fun Sanlian Bookstore (Lu is a mountain of books), the delicious Chaifang Coffee, the China Exhibition Hall of Classics (where you can learn a lot about the history and culture of silk and ancient books), and the Qianshanyang Ruins (an ancient cultural site in the history of human silk civilization), all of which are very trendy film production locations.

1:30 PM

We found some delicious food in the ancient village for lunch in the ancient street, such as MAX coffee, Lucun pig head noodles, Xiaoli soup dumplings, Sijia Courtyard, etc.

The Lucun Flower Sea here (a check-in spot all year round) is also a very good check-in spot. When autumn comes, the super beautiful flower sea, coupled with the filter suitable for autumn, the whole thing is Monet's garden~

4:30 PM

We're starting to return.

7:30 PM

Returning to the starting point in the city, everyone was still reluctant to leave and kissed goodbye with tears~~

Driving time: about 3 hours

Hiking: The hike to Xianding Temple is about 3 kilometers, with an ascent of about 120 meters. You can stroll freely in Lucun Old Street.

Note:
There are pigeons in Xianding Temple. You can buy pigeon food (10r per bag) to feed and take photos. You can enjoy vegetarian food in the temple. Vegetarian food is a congratulatory meal. You can give some incense money according to your own wishes. Please note that the
ancient ginkgo trees are expected to turn yellow from mid-to-late October to November
. Lucun is not a prosperous commercial ancient street. There may not be so many dazzling goods, but it has more traditional characteristics and a stronger cultural atmosphere. Therefore, it is relatively more suitable for friends who want to come to collect folk songs, take pictures, and relax.

1.Why didn’t I receive a text message notification after registering?

3. Is this route crowded?

Most of our routes are natural and niche, with relatively small traffic. Of course, it also depends on the registration situation for each period.

The ancient village of Lucun is located at the southern end of the eastern bank of the renowned Qianshan River in the southern suburbs of Huzhou, Zhejiang. With a long history and rich cultural heritage, Lucun was once known as "Luxi." The village covers an area of ​​3.1 square kilometers. The Huyan Highway runs through the village from north to south, and the Shenjiahu Expressway passes by. It is bordered by Qianshan River to the west and Qiaomu Mountain to the north. Furthermore, it enjoys convenient transportation access thanks to the Changhu Shen Golden Waterway, known as the "Little Rhine." This ancient village, rich in history and culture, convenient water and land transportation, and blessed with unique natural scenery, has become a treasure trove of history.
