Zhejiang Wonderland: Waterfall, Glass Bridge, Temple, Pagoda

Tiantaishan in Zhejiang Province has a lot of variety in a relatively compact area. The two main attractions are the Tiantaishan Waterfall and the Guoqing Temple with its iconic pagoda.

The combo ticket (165 RMB) for the Tiantaishan Waterfall and Qiongtai Fairy Canyon (天台山大瀑布，琼台仙谷) will allow you to do a complete circuit of both areas.

I started at the waterfall. After taking photos at the base, I hiked up the waterfall and around the top of Qiongtai Fairy Canyon on a plank walk. The hike includes passage across the glass bridge. I then hiked down to the river at the canyon bottom. Took me about 4-5 hours total with plenty of time stopping to take photos.

Then I took a cab to Guoqing Temple (国清寺). Entrance is free. I spent about 2-3 hours wandering around the grounds and through the temple buildings.
