07:00

Good morning, beauty of the morning: 07:00 - 07:15

It was a beautiful morning. We gathered at the designated location of China-TravelNote and signed in. We set off at 07:15 on time. We interacted with each other and introduced the itinerary on the bus, and laughed and talked all the way.

After gathering, we got on the bus and headed to our destination with laughter and joy!

11:30

This is the Big Tree Kingdom: 11:30 AM - 4:30 PM

As we began our hike under the guidance of our tour guide, we were greeted by the sight of a primeval forest. The entire landscape was a sea of ​​lush green mountains and ancient trees, complemented by the perilous sight of bizarre rock formations and cascading waterfalls, creating the illusion of an ecotourism destination. From a distance, the mountains were filled with bizarre rock formations, each competing for beauty, and from time to time, the sound of flowing water could be heard!

Along the way, there are countless towering trees over 30 meters tall. At the top, you'll marvel at the "King of Trees" and "Sky-reaching Trees." In autumn, you can even admire the 10,000-year-old "Five Generations Under One Roof" of ginkgo trees. We then found an open space to rest and recharge. (Recent road repairs are underway on the route to the Kaishan Old Temple, Simian Peak Scenic Area, and the pavilion, but this won't affect the overall tour. Please sign up carefully if you're concerned.)

After arriving at the Big Tree King Scenic Area, we'll start our descent. We'll take the scenic shuttle bus at the exit of the scenic area, where we can take pictures of the Big Tree Kingdom. We'll then take the scenic shuttle bus to Chanyuan Temple, where we can visit and check in. We'll also have tea and coffee available (the shuttle bus fare is 20 yuan, at your own expense, and the last bus leaves at 4:00 PM).

We returned to the starting point, and after a brief rest, we returned to Shanghai.

4:30 PM

[Back to Shanghai: 16:30 - 20:30]

We returned to the starting point, and after a brief rest, we returned to Shanghai.

We returned to Shanghai, and everyone was reluctant to leave, kissing goodbye with tears in their eyes.

Driving time: Shanghai to Lin'an about 4 hours

Hiking: 7km of walking + 2km of scenic area stroll, with a total ascent of about 800m

Note: (If you descend midway, or arrange your own transfer)

Is it safe to paraglide in low security?

Regarding the widespread public concern about the safety of paragliding, we must first clarify a concept: paragliding is an aeronautical sport, a leisurely one. It cannot be considered an extreme sport; it simply has some "extreme" ways to enjoy it. Just like driving a car, most people follow traffic rules and drive on the road, which is relaxing and relaxing. However, a small number of people enjoy drifting, off-roading, cross-country racing, and even jumping, which makes driving a car quite "extreme"! The same is true for paragliding. According to the World Sports Safety Ranking published by the World Sports Federation, paragliding ranks 47th in safety, behind road cycling at 46th. This means that as long as you strictly follow the instructor's instructions and the sport's regulations, paragliding is safer than road cycling and other sports. Children who have flown paragliding say it's safer than walking.

I've never flown before, can I try?

Visitors (experiencers) fly in tandem with a qualified, licensed paragliding instructor. Connected by a triangular harness, they fly with their instructor, who controls the parachute. The passenger sits in the front seat and the instructor in the back. The instructor controls the parachute, allowing visitors to simply enjoy the flight, taking in the scenery and gazing at the blue sky. No prior experience is required; anyone aged 3-70, regardless of gender or age, is welcome to participate.

What should I do if I’m afraid of heights?

There are generally two types of acrophobia: psychological and physical. Most people's fear of heights is simply a fear of heights, or what we call psychological, a fear that stems from an inner fear of the unknown. If you notice mild symptoms of acquired acrophobia, consider challenging yourself more often and facing heights directly; this will naturally improve the symptoms. (Remember, 90% of professional pilots experience fear of heights even when standing on a tall building without guardrails.) Symptoms of physical acrophobia include dizziness, vomiting, and fainting, so you shouldn't participate in this activity.
