    Tianyi Pavilion was built between 1561 and 1566 (the 40th and 45th years of the Jiajing reign of the Ming Dynasty). Originally the library of Fan Qin, the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of War, it now houses nearly 300,000 volumes of ancient books, including more than 80,000 rare and valuable editions. It is the oldest existing private library in my country, the largest in Asia, and the third largest in the world. In 1982, it was listed as a national key cultural relics protection unit.

    We finally arrived at Shenxianju. We were impressed by the craftsmanship of the workers who built the walkway on one side of the mountain. We were also amazed by nature. Because the cable car at the South Gate was under maintenance, we went up and down from the North Gate, which took about 3 hours.

    Yandang Mountain is uniquely beautiful, with majestic peaks and towering cliffs. The night view of Lingfeng Peak is like a fairyland. Waterfalls and clear pools are scattered among the mountains, with Dalongqiu Waterfall hanging like a ribbon in the air and Lingyan Waterfall soaring high in the sky, a breathtaking sight. Every step reveals a new view, a natural landscape painting, truly deserving of the title "Number One Mountain in Southeast China".

    Hengdian was so much fun, but the tickets were too expensive. This time, I booked a hotel and tickets through Ctrip, which was incredibly cost-effective. The hotel and restaurants were both fantastic. A truly enjoyable trip!

    For elementary school students who have already learned about Lu Xun's works, from the Hundred Herb Garden to the Three Flavors Study, and preferably have also read some of Lu Xun's works, this place is quite interesting. The scenic area is divided into several attractions with different entrances and exits. Lu Xun's ancestral home and Lu Xun's former residence are two different places. The Hundred Herb Garden seems to be located within Lu Xun's former residence, so you need to pay close attention. The Hundred Herb Garden is actually just a small vegetable garden, while the Zhu Family Garden is quite large, with a very tall tree. There are covered boats outside the scenic area. There are many Q-version Lu Xun figures. The little Lu Xun school fridge magnets in the souvenir shop are super cute.

    Highly recommended! The sacred altar blends traditional craftsmanship with modern technology, featuring white marble walls adorned with gilded statues—every detail showcases meticulous craftsmanship. From praying and making wishes on the first floor to worshipping the four-faced Guanyin on the seventh floor, the entire experience is enveloped in a serene and solemn atmosphere. The "Flowers Bloom, Buddha Appears" sound and light show is breathtakingly beautiful. Free luggage storage, comprehensive facilities for the disabled, and friendly staff are all available. Avoiding crowds allows you to witness the beautiful spectacle of the sun and moon shining together. This journey, combining a visual feast with spiritual healing, is worth experiencing for everyone!

    Guanyin Dharma Realm is worth a visit as a supplement to the Putuoshan itinerary. It is very photogenic when the weather is good. It is beautiful both inside and out, similar to Niushou Mountain in Nanjing, but one is about Buddha and the other is about Bodhisattva. There are also many exquisite works of art and cultural relics, like a small museum.

    The countryside in Zhejiang can fulfill all your beautiful imaginations of rural life. It not only guarantees beautiful scenery but also supports food delivery. The guesthouse is right at the intersection and is very easy to find. The room is clean and comfortable with a large floor-to-ceiling window that opens up a wide view. The whole house is smart. The hostess is just the right amount of warm hospitality. The breakfast is plentiful. The lobby on the first floor is very comfortable (I even gave up going to a coffee shop and chose to sit here).
