Fuzhi Mountain Scenic Area Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai Pedestrian Ceiling | Shaoxing Fuchishan
Fuchishan, located at the junction of Shaoxing Shangyu, Shengzhou and Ningbo Yuyao, with a main peak altitude of 861 meters. It was named after the Eastern Jin Dynasty landscape poet Xie Lingyun 'climbed this mountain to drink wine and write poems, and covered the cup after drinking'. There are many things to play in Fuchishan, and the more distinctive ones are the Glacier Stone Waves, Thousand-Year Terraces, and Hundred-Year-Old Villages.
🗿The Fuchishan Village Glacier Stone Wave is currently the largest stone wave group found in low-latitude and low-altitude areas in China. It is a geological wonder and has a high scientific research value. It is believed to be a relic of the Quaternary glacier formed 3 million years ago.
🌾The Thousand-Year Terraces, located on the north slope of Fuchishan, have more than 23,000 terraces of various sizes with a history of at least 500 years and more than 2,300 acres. Each terrace is built from rocks in the Quaternary glacier relic-'Stone Glacier'.
🌄 The Hundred-Year-Old Village, there is a clan hall in Dongcheng Village, Sanhuai Hall. The Wang clan in Dongcheng Village is a descendant of the Sanhuai Wang clan. The establishment of the Sanhuai Hall is both a memory of the ancestors and a heritage of the family culture. The Wang's ancestral motto is promoted here.
Come to Fuchishan and start your hiking journey!
Especially those huge stones, as if they have been carefully carved by nature, they are different in shape, I believe that the beautiful scenery here will not disappoint you!

Fuzhi Mountain-Shaoxing
It is the highest mountain in Shangyu.There is a rock glacier which is believed to have existed since the beginning of the earth,there are also millenium terraces,grassland on the mountain top overlooking and the feeling is addictive, A small town at the bottom of the hill.A nice place to go after hiking.Went with a club no high expectations
Turn the places you long for into the roads you've traveled!
I really hate a sentence I saw online, but today I must plagiarize it: Shangyu, you're not being obscure in your promotion!
It's the ultimate experience in cherry blossom viewing, or flower appreciation in general. There's nothing larger in scale, more magnificent, or more dazzling, right I just can't stop my hands from snapping photos, and my mouth from praising the beauty non-stop! Five-star recommendation A perfect score of beauty
A nine-kilometer hike, including three kilometers of rough, thorny paths. The climb isn't too high, just over 200 meters, but you're always walking amidst the scenery, on main roads, dirt paths, and through villages. This is the most beautiful route I've experienced on a one-day group hiking trip. Slightly tiring, but worth it
The photo was taken on 2024-4-10, at Shangyu Tiao Hua Ridge, located halfway up the Fuchai Mountain scenic area, with no admission fee. You can drive up there, and you don't have to hike to see the scenery.
Zhangcun's cherry blossoms are in their prime, making it the go-to destination for spring outings in the Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai region
During the spring outing season, you must visit Shangyu (Shaoxing City)! Here you can find ✅ thousands of acres of rapeseed flower seas ✅ thousand-year-old terraces ✅ ten-thousand-year-old glacial stone waves ✅ the most beautiful Zhangcun Cherry Blossom Valley
👉 (Real shot on 3-26) The cherry blossoms in Zhangcun Valley are now in full bloom:
Zhangcun Cherry Blossom Valley, awarded the title of 'China's Most Beautiful Cherry Blossom Valley' in 2023. Over 600 acres of cherry blossom forests extend along the entire valley. Standing on the observation deck, the view is truly breathtaking. In late March, when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, you are surrounded by a sea of white flowers!
Shangyu Cherry Blossom Festival event dates: March 16 to April 6, 2024
📍 Navigation: Zhangcun Cherry Blossom Valley
🚘 Parking: Free
🎟 Admission: Free
⚠️tips: During the peak bloom period, private cars cannot directly enter the valley. Transfer to a scenic shuttle bus at the entrance of the scenic area, 10 yuan/person. (It is recommended to take the shuttle bus, about a two-kilometer walk)
👉 The Cherry Blossom Valley is a 25-minute drive from the Fuchai Mountain scenic area, and it is highly recommended to plan a visit to both the cherry blossoms and the Fuchai Mountain rapeseed flower terraces.
✅ From mid-March to early April, the rapeseed flowers of Fuchai Mountain will be in full bloom. As one of the top ten golden flower destinations in East China, the 'Fuchai Mountain Rapeseed Flower Sea' features terraced rapeseed flowers that spread from the mountaintop down to the valley, a truly magnificent sight.
📍 Navigation: Dongcheng Village (Shangyu, Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province)
🚙 Parking: Free
🎟 Admission: None
👉 Ten Thousand Year Stone Waves
Exploring the Ten Thousand Year Stone Waves is another highlight of the Fuchai Mountain itinerary. Climbing up from the thousand-year-old terraces, you reach the ten-thousand-year-old stone waves, but the climb is not easy (about 600 meters in elevation), so proceed according to your ability.
🎟 Admission: Free
👉 Accommodation Recommendation
This time we stayed at the Muge Mountain Residence, located between Zhangcun Cherry Blossom Valley and the thousand-year-old terraces. It is a stunning ins-style homestay hidden at the foot of Fuchai Mountain. With a tranquil environment by the mountain and water, you can watch the starry sky and sunset by the infinity pool, play in the stream next to the homestay, and even enjoy barbecues and camping.
The residence is a 10-minute drive from the Fuchai Mountain scenic area and 15 minutes from the Cherry Blossom Valley. In the afternoon, visit the Cherry Blossom Valley first, then check into Muge Mountain Residence. The next day, visit the century-old Dongcheng Ancient Village, check out the thousand-year-old terraces, admire the thousands of acres of rapeseed flower sea, and climb the Ten Thousand Year Stone Waves.
