Take a 30-minute high-speed train from Hangzhou East Station directly to Tonglu Station, or a 2-hour drive from Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai area

🔛 Recommended Itinerary
1️⃣ Yan Ziling Fishing Platform
The centerpiece of Fuchun River's Little Three Gorges! Cruise through ink-wash landscapes and climb East Platform for a bird's-eye view of the "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" real-life painting
📸Tips: Most photogenic during morning mist! The stone steps recreate the iconic shot from the show "Back to Field"

2️⃣ Daqishan National Forest Park
Truly worthy of its "Little Jiuzhaigou" nickname! Emerald pools + bamboo forest suspension bridges, 1.5-hour hike leads to Tianchi Waterfall
🐟 Hidden Gem: The claypot fish head at foothill farmhouses will blow your mind

3️⃣ Baiyunyuan Scenic Area
Real-life Fairyland! Take sightseeing cars up to the clouds, photograph terraced fields from glass walkways
☁️ Best Time: Right after rain when sea of clouds blankets tea plantations

🍜 Must-Try Trio
Fermented rice buns with pork: Filled with preserved vegetable and pork belly, fluffy and sweet
Tonglu braised pork: Farm-raised pork with secret sauce, perfect with noodles
Bipu crayfish: Late-night king! Firm meat with roe, numbing-spicy flavor is legendary

💡 Anti-Scam Tips
- Yan Ziling cruises have limited schedules, arrive before 9am
- Daqishan has many mosquitoes, bring repellent
- August is honey season but beware of bee stings during extraction!
