A niche hiking route in Hangzhou for spring丨Go hiking in the mountains in spring

Hangzhou in spring is super suitable for hiking🚶🏻‍♀️ Encounter a stunning mountaintop viewing platform🖼️ Overlooking the West Lake and the panoramic view of Hangzhou There are also quiet thousand-year-old temples with few people Perfect for a city walk Breathe in the spring air and energy🌱 Seize this sunny weekend🌞 Go! Go! Go~ 🚶🏻‍♀️Route: Majiawu → Majiawu Viewing Platform⛰️→ Xishan Walking Trail → Beigao Peak Temple of Wealth → Fahuasi Temple → Wangjiawu 🗺️Detailed route map see p2 ⌚This route is about 4km and takes 2-3 hours 📸Photo spots: ①Majiawu Viewing Platform Enter from the Majiawu archway and follow the mountain road upwards. The first section is stone steps, and the latter section is a newly built trail. The climb takes about 30-40 minutes. You can see Beigao Peak along the way, surrounded by greenery🌲 ‼️The moment you reach the top, you'll be stunned by the 270° panoramic view, with the West Lake/Xixi Wetland/Hangzhou skyline all in sight! The viewing platform is similar to Shanghai's Gemini Mountains, haha, but the scenery here is even more stunning ②Beigao Peak⛰️ It takes about 30 minutes to walk from the viewing platform to Beigao Peak. We met many people running up the mountain. At Beigao Peak, you can visit the Temple of Wealth and choose to descend by cable car or on foot. Our car was parked in Majiawu, so we walked down. ③Fahuasi Temple⛩️ On the way down the mountain, we encountered yellow walls and black tiles. It turned out to be a thousand-year-old temple from the Southern Song Dynasty. A must-visit for those seeking wealth🙏🏻 There are many cultural and creative shops and snack bars outside Fahuasi Temple to replenish your energy! ❗❗Tips 1️⃣There are no 🚾 from Majiawu to the viewing platform, but there are 🚻 in Majiawu Village and Beigao Peak. 2️⃣For parking, you can navigate to the Zhejiang Industrial Design Creative Park, 20 RMB with no time limit, a 5-minute walk to the Majiawu archway. 3️⃣About 1km from Dongyue Station or Gudun Road Station. 4️⃣There are places to eat in Majiawu Village and Fahuasi Temple to replenish your energy. 5️⃣You can return the same way from Majiawu to the viewing platform. The route can also be reversed, but the steps from Fahuasi Temple → Beigao Peak are steep.
