Found it! Zhejiang's own "Altay"

Just a 2.5-hour drive from Hangzhou city Head to Longyou County, Quzhou, and navigate to "Bukengkou Bus Station" (parking spots are available near the campsite exit sign along the way) Another spot is "Taxia" (these two locations form a loop—just park wherever you prefer) Great for photography! While it's still a bit hot for serious outdoor activities now, this place will be perfect for camping when the weather cools down. The scenic drive here offers plenty of beautiful views—feel free to stop anywhere you like for photos📷! You can pull over and explore anytime. Longyou Lingshan River's Most Scenic Driving Route (p14-15): 📍 Starting Point: Shijiao Village—stunning stone bridges and rice fields, with calm waters perfect for kayaking under the bridge 🚗 Route Highlights: 1️⃣ Lingqi Secret Spot—coffee, kayaking, and bamboo rafting available (entrance fee: ¥68) 2️⃣ Bukengkou Village—ideal for camping 3️⃣ Baimatan—riverbank scenery with a three-tiered weir, especially spectacular during high water flow 4️⃣ Tashan Temple—great for panoramic views 5️⃣ Xikou Old Street—Hui-style architecture, ancient town charm, and plenty of local snacks 🏁 Final Stop: Ni Art Museum The rural photography-themed Ni Art Museum was a delightful surprise, with exceptional curation and high-quality exhibits. Housed in a repurposed hydropower station, the building blends seamlessly into its lush surroundings. The terrace offers breathtaking views of verdant landscapes. The museum's bookstore features an impressive collection of photography books—perfect for enjoying with a cup of coffee. Chatting with the museum staff revealed that this route is frequently used by their rural photography association for shoots. Spanning just 22 kilometers, the leisurely journey was made even more magical by intermittent rain, enhancing the area's natural beauty. Truly a wonderful experience.
