The South Peak of Shuangfeng Chayun, one of the "Ten Scenes of West Lake" in Hangzhou 🌟Highlights: Imagine what a scene it would be if the West Lake Longjing tea garden was full of mountains! Doesn't it feel like a treasure? West Lake Longjing, the first of the top ten famous teas in China, what a huge treasure this Longjing tea garden is all over the mountains! And the place to see this treasure from a high place is the South Peak! 257.2 meters, the second highest peak in Hangzhou, an excellent place to enjoy the West Lake and the rolling mountains. It's a pity that the pavilion on the top of the mountain is a bit shabby and looks a bit desolate... ⏳Play time: No tickets are required, there are three routes to go up the mountain, one is from the Yanxia Cave in Manjuelong, the shortest journey, about fifteen minutes to the top; one starts from Liutong Hotel and it takes about an hour to reach the top. Along the way, there are the oldest Tang camphor trees in Hangzhou, the Northern Expedition Revolutionary Martyrs Cemetery, and other attractions; the other starts from the foot of Santaishan and reaches the top for about 1.5 hours, passing Santai Pavilion. 🚉Transportation strategy: Take bus No. 197🚌 to Yuqian Temple Station and go up the mountain. ✅Must experience: Tangzhang must-visit spot

【Double Peaks Chasing the Clouds】 Now let me introduce the main attractions of Double Peaks Chasing the Clouds 1. Beigaofeng: Zhang Dai said in "Dreaming of West Lake": "Beigaofeng is behind Lingyin Temple, with hundreds of stone steps and thirty-six bends. There is Huaguang Temple on the top to worship the Five Saints. There is Ma Mingwang Temple in the middle of the mountain, where people who pray for silkworms in spring all go. The pagoda on the top of the peak has seven levels. It was built in the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty and destroyed in the Huichang period. It was restored by King Qian Wusu, and destroyed again in the seventh year of Xianchun in the Song Dynasty. This place is surrounded by mountains and the lake is like a mirror. Looking down from above, singing boats and fishing boats are like gulls and ducks appearing and disappearing in the smoke and waves, and they become increasingly faint as they get farther away, with only their shadows. Looking west, Luosha River is like a newly washed silk, connected to the sea in the distance, vast and boundless. Zhang Gongliang has a sentence: "The white air of the river is divided and the air of the sea is combined, the green of Wu Mountain ends and the mountains of Yue come. "There is a painting in the poem. The county town is located between the river and lake, winding and twisting, with belts on both sides, houses lined up, bamboos and trees lush and green, phoenixes dancing and dragons coiling, it is really full of royal spirit. At the foot of the mountain is the pagoda of Wuzhu Zen Master. The master's name is Wenxi, who lived during the reign of Emperor Suzong of Tang Dynasty. His bones were buried here. Han Tuozhou chose it as a burial place, and opened the pagoda, there was a pottery niche. His face was as alive as ever, his hair hung down to his shoulders, his fingers and nails were curled around his body, and there were hundreds of relics, which did not decay for three days, and were finally cremated." Su Shi's poem "Visiting the Gaofeng Pagoda in Lingyin" says: Speaking of visiting the Gaofeng Pagoda, I started to wear wild clothes. The fire clouds in autumn have not faded, and it is cool at the beginning of the day. The fog is thick and the valley is dark, the sun rises and the grass and trees are fragrant. I am praised for coming with you, and I also say it is a water village. I urge you to take small steps, the road ahead is high and long. Ancient pines climb dragons and snakes, and strange rocks sit on cows and sheep. Gradually, I hear the sweet sound of bells, and all the flying birds fly down. There is nothing inside the door, and the sea of clouds is vast. I only see the deaf Taoist priest, who ran out of food when he was old and sick. When asked about his age, he smiled but didn't answer, but pointed to the pear bed. I know that I will never come back, and I am even more hesitant to go back. I left a piece of cloth as a farewell gift, but this year the sky is frosty early. Kang Yuzhi's "Longing for You·Nan Gaofeng" Nan Gaofeng, Bei Gaofeng, a lake in the mist, spring comes and makes me sad. My love is strong, my love is strong, the oil-painted carriage is light, and the man and the horse are light, and we meet the Jiuli pine. 2. Nan Gaofeng Nan Gaofeng is at the boundary of the northern and southern mountains, with winding paths and lush pines and bamboos. It is impossible to climb without straw shoes and cloth socks, and to push hard with a cane. The tower is located on the top of the peak. It was built during the Tianfu period of the Jin Dynasty and rebuilt twice during the Chongning and Qiandao periods. It was destroyed in the late Yuan Dynasty. It used to have seven levels, but now only three levels remain. Looking around in the tower, you can overlook the plains in the east, the smoke dissipates and the sunrise, and the scenery in the lake is endless. To the south, the river is majestic and surging, and boats can be seen in the mist. To the west, there are caves with strange rocks flying and deep caves. There are auspicious statues beside it, which are as ingenious as the work of ghosts. To the north, there are hills and mountains, arrows and arrow posts are clustered, and millet and wheat are connected to the clouds. The huge rock of Sanjiao stands like a tall hat, which is called Xianzhaotan. It is said that it is the place where Taoists suppress demons. There are Bowl Pond and Yingchuan Spring on the top of the peak, which will not dry up even in drought and will not overflow in heavy rain. There is Bailong Cave beside the pond.
One of the ten scenic spots of West Lake, it is very stunning on a sunny day.
