Shanghai 2h|Blockbuster! A pseudo-hiking route perfect for lazy besties and family

🪨Can you believe it! This is the basalt in Shengzhou, Shaoxing! There is such a spectacular basalt columnar joint geological landscape in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai! Giant organ pipe-like columnar structures Some look like a forest of stone pillars, Others have a honeycomb structure Stunningly crafted by the wonders of nature! 📍Location: Shishe Basalt, Shengzhou, Shaoxing, Zhejiang 🎫Tickets: Free 🚗Transportation: Shengzhou’s surrounding scenic spots are scattered, self-driving is recommended, parking is convenient and free🆓 ⚠️Note: The play area is not large, about five minutes, no need to come here specifically, plan your later itinerary in advance! 🌟【Lazy Route】 1️⃣Super suitable for bringing lazy besties & family, the attraction is reachable by car! Basically zero walking! 2️⃣You can use Shengzhou as the core to tour, visiting historic ancient buildings while stopping by the basalt for sightseeing and photos. For example, Chongren Ancient Town, Shengzhou City God Temple, Shunwang Temple, etc.~ 3️⃣Although the basalt is in Shengzhou, it is very close to the Fuzhi Mountain Scenic Area in Shangyu, also reachable by car. You can check related posts in your notes! 💡【Hiking Route】 You can also start from the basalt and take a 6.5km loop trail🚘 Drive directly, locate 【Shishe Village Forest Park】 ❗️【Gear Suggestions】 🔸If you’re not doing the hiking route, you can wear big, flowing clothes! Dress freely~ 🔸This time I also brought the Lock&Lock travel bottle, 1L large capacity enough for short trips, the widened silicone handle provides a firm grip without slipping, and the lid can also be used as a cup, two uses in one lid, very suitable for long-term outdoor use.
