I thought Longjing Village was beautiful, until I visited Wuliang Mountain in Hangzhou!

I always thought Longjing Village was incredibly beautiful, but after visiting Wuliang Mountain in Hangzhou, I realized there's a whole other level of beauty. This spring, don't just focus on Longjing Village. Bashan Tea Plantation, located in Fuyang, is a true spring treasure.

Here, you'll find a spectacular tea plantation spanning thousands of acres. As far as the eye can see, the mountains and fields are covered with tea trees, resembling layers of green waves. Even more delightful, late-blooming cherry blossoms are in full bloom, their delicate pink flowers dotting the tea trees. With "cherry blossoms between tea plants," this spring scenery is absolutely stunning, easily comparable to Dali's Wuliang Mountain.

The tea mountains rise and fall, creating a picturesque landscape that's especially breathtaking when viewed from above. If you're lucky, you might even encounter the Bashan sea of clouds and sunset, a sight so beautiful it will take your breath away. Driving up the mountain in spring, enjoying the flowers, and sipping tea is the perfect way to relax.

The "Guancha Pavilion" halfway up the mountain is an absolute must-visit spot. Standing there, you can take in the entire tea plantation scenery.

As for transportation, I recommend driving. The tea plantation is located near the West Ring Road, and the mountain roads are well-maintained, wide, and easy to navigate. You can drive up, hike, or cycle. If you're driving, simply navigate to "Bashan Mountain Climbing Parking Lot," where parking is free.

About 2 hours is enough to see all the essential sights. There are also tea-scented villages nearby, such as Bashan Village and Shenshiling. After visiting the tea plantation, it's a great idea to explore these villages and experience the local culture.

When visiting, please note that there are many curves on the mountain roads, so drive carefully. If you're hiking or cycling, wear comfortable shoes and bring sunscreen. If you plan to visit the surrounding villages, please respect local customs and enjoy the beauty of spring!
