This treasure county with "ten thousand years of mountain culture"
Actually hides:

🌄【Must-Visit Checklist】
▪️ Tongji Lake: When morning mist covers the lake
It looks just like Monet's water lily paintings (arrive before 6:00 AM!)
▪️ Songxi Ancient Village: 800-year-old lime kiln village
With 30+ cafes and creative shops hidden among black-tiled white walls
▪️ Xianhua Mountain: Climb to the top of "Jiangnan's First Fairy Mountain"
Remember to wear Hanfu! The swirling clouds will transform you into a celestial fairy

🍜【Food Highlights】
✅ Pan Zhou Family One Noodle: Watch heritage inheritors pull noodles live
✅ Beef Clear Soup: Beef broth simmered with yellow rice wine so fragrant it'll make you stamp your feet
✅ Mi Shai Pa: Handmade noodle chunks with seasonal wild vegetables, super fresh

📸【Photography Guide】

• Minsheng Village: Rapeseed flowers in March/sunflower fields in August
• Twenty-Nine Lanes: Art district converted from Ming-Qing dynasty old houses

🚗【Transportation Tips】
Hangzhou East → Pujiang High-speed Railway Station (40 minutes)
Recommend renting a car! Attractions are quite spread out

Just got back and already regret...
Why didn't I discover this magical town earlier!
(Fun fact: Pujiang is known as the "Hometown of Chinese Painting and Calligraphy")
