Oh my, Hangzhou's springtime Longjing Fairy Hiking Route is such a feast for the eyes

By mid to late March, don't cram into West Lake with the crowds on weekends anymore. Gather your friends and head to the Guangming Temple Reservoir—it can heal all your worries!

The Longwu Tea Garden surrounds the Guangming Temple Reservoir
Nestled by the mountain and water, the scenery is uniquely beautiful, and it's also convenient for hiking!!
In just 5 minutes, you can have a panoramic view of the mountains.

🧭Direct navigation: Guangming Temple Reservoir
🚇Subway: Meiyuan Xiangshan Station, take a taxi🚖9km

🚗If you drive there on the weekend, it's better to go early in the morning when there are not many cars. By noon, afternoon, or evening, it's basically hard to find a parking spot. If you park a bit further away, there are parking spots along the road, which is also convenient.

⛺️【Tea Mountain Camping】
1⃣️It's not recommended to camp on the mountain due to limited space, high foot traffic, and open flames like card stoves are not allowed❎.
2⃣️The general location is distributed on both sides of the mountain foot next to the reservoir. Eventually, we set up our stall at the camping spot 1 shown in the picture, which has the advantage of being relatively less crowded.
3⃣️There's a market where you can sit around a stove facing the tea mountains to drink tea🍵, and there are also coffee☕️ sellers, which looks pretty good.
