The thousand-year-old terraced rapeseed flower sea on Shaoxing Fuchun Mountain is too romantic

Fields of terraced rapeseed flowers blanket the mountainside, and from the summit, the view is like a stunning spring scroll. The terraces cascade down from the mountainside, arranged in a well-ordered fashion, with the golden 'waterfalls' set against the green mountains, creating a spectacular sight. The terraced fields, which cover more than 2,300 acres and number over 23,000 of varying sizes, have a history of at least five hundred years and are all built from rocks from the Quaternary glacial relic—the 'stone glacier'. The Fuchun Mountain Rapeseed Flower Festival starts on March 16th and is definitely worth a visit! Come to Shaoxing Fuchun Mountain to witness the charming beauty of one of the top ten 'golden flower attractions' in East China and have a romantic date with the rapeseed flowers! 📍Navigation address: Dongcheng Village, Shangyu District, Shaoxing City, Zhejiang 🎫Ticket: Free ✅Transportation Guide 🚌Public Transportation: Take a long-distance bus from Hangzhou, Ningbo, and other places to Shangyu, then take the 609 bus from the East Bus Station to the foot of Baihu Mountain to reach the entrance of the scenic area. Or arrive at Shengzhou Bei High-speed Railway Station and take a taxi to the scenic area for about 35 yuan. The scenic area has no admission fee, and the shuttle bus round-trip ticket is 10 yuan. 🚗Self-driving: It takes about 2.5 hours to drive from Shanghai, directly navigate to the 'Fuchun Mountain' parking lot. During weekends and holidays when it's crowded, traffic control will be implemented, and private cars are not allowed to drive up the mountain; you must take the scenic area's shuttle bus. 🍱Dining There are three Moonlight Cafés recommended near the scenic area, offering staple foods, beverages, and snacks. 🏠Accommodation For accommodation, you can choose Fuchun Mountain Residence or Muge Mountain Residence, which are moderately priced, provide good service, and are not far from the scenic area with convenient parking. 🌟Recommended Hiking Route Dongcheng Village ➡️ Thousand-Year Rapeseed Fields ➡️ Stone Steps Up the Mountain ➡️ Millennium Stone Waves ➡️ Fuchun Mountain Summit ➡️ Descent and Return Leaving the parking lot, you will arrive at Dongcheng Village, and after a stretch of road, you will see the entrance to the thousand-year terraces. After viewing the terraces, climb up the stone steps, and in half an hour, you will reach the beginning of the Millennium Stone Waves. The stone wave trail is quite long, and there is a path on the right side if you cannot climb anymore, you can retreat at any time. After experiencing the stone waves, you can continue to climb to the top of Fuchun Mountain to overlook the entire terraced fields and the surrounding mountains, then follow the signs to descend. 🌟Highlights of the Hiking Route 1️⃣Rapeseed Flower Terraces: The closest attraction to the starting point, just a few hundred meters walk from the parking lot, and going down the stairs feels like entering the world of Hayao Miyazaki. From mid-March to early April, the rapeseed flowers on Fuchun Mountain will bloom furiously. 2️⃣Glacial Stone Waves: Climb about two kilometers along the steps of the terraces, which is the steepest climb of the entire route, to reach the beginning of the stone waves, a result of the Quaternary glacial movement, where you need to climb steep rocks, presenting a small challenge. 3️⃣Quangang Ancient Village, with its distinctive high mountain ancient dwellings. 4️⃣The ancient village of Ding Mountain in the high mountains. 5️⃣The ancient Fuchun Mountain Trail, lined with cherry blossoms and various other flowers.
