As a corrupt hiking team, meals are arranged. This time, the plan for hiking the Wenling Ring Road was to go down the mountain from Wulongshan Square via Shifuren to Nancheng Bus Station. The whole journey was about 10 kilometers. In order to have a hot lunch, we went down directly from Tengling, cut 3 kilometers, and finally caught up with most restaurants before closing at noon to reach the reserved stalls. This time, we checked in at the seafood stall Linjia Shop (Jinyuan Store) which is very close to the end of the hike. This is also a time-honored small seafood stall in Wenling, known as the ceiling of Wenling home-cooked dishes, and the price-performance ratio is also good. There is a menu board for ordering dishes, but basically everyone will directly look at the dishes on display. Because there are so many people, a lot of dishes were ordered, including home-cooked fish, scallion oil clams, steamed mantis shrimp, sand garlic bean noodles, braised hairtail, cold jellyfish, and a lot of other non-seafood dishes. All the dishes are traditional Taizhou home-cooked, and they really taste like home. Because it was past mealtime, the dishes were served quickly, but the quality was stable, and everyone was hungry after the hike, so the satisfaction was doubled. On a sunny and warm winter day, hiking in the mountains and rewarding your stomach with small seafood, this weekend couldn't be more perfect. Sure enough, the end of the hike is the appetite.

🌸 Main Guide 1️⃣, Shaoxing | Free Literary Relaxation in the Hometown of the Sage of Calligraphy 🖌️ Core Experiences: - Night Tour of the Sage of Calligraphy's Hometown: Carry a lantern and stroll through the ink-wash alleys for free (crowds decrease after 7 PM). The evening breeze will drop the temperature by 5°C, and you can capture silhouettes in a new Chinese gauze skirt 📸. The river reflects the mottled lights, making it 10 times quieter than the West Bank of Wuzhen! - Morning Tea Boat on Cangqiao Street: Enjoy stinky tofu and rice wine popsicles on a 30-yuan boat. The boatwoman paddles through the bridge arch, the morning light shimmers on the water, and the light-colored cheongsams are reflected in picturesque ✨. - Xixiaolu Intangible Cultural Heritage Handicrafts: Hide away in the "Buxingrenshi" cafe, where you can make your own magnolia tofu (Lu Xun's summer favorite) for 10 yuan, and enjoy refreshing mint syrup. 🚇 Transportation: Direct access via Hangzhou Metro Line 1 (6 yuan), or ride a shared bike for 2 yuan/hour. 🏡 Accommodation: "Huazhu" B&B on Luxun Middle Road (130 yuan/night), where you can see black-sailed boats from the window and receive a handwritten folding fan. 2️⃣, Nanxun | A free time travel experience in a luxurious ancient residence 🏯 Summer escape: - Baijianlou Morning Light: Enjoy exclusive access to the Ming and Qing Water Corridor at 7 a.m. (free admission!), wear an indigo tie-dyed dress, and stand on the arch bridge to take photos of "unique reflections." In the morning mist, red lanterns intertwine with white walls and black tiles, resembling an oil painting. - Zhang Jingjiang's Former Residence Exploration: Hear legendary stories of the Republic of China for 20 yuan, enjoy three cups of tea under the old banyan tree in the backyard (with a complimentary Dingsheng cake), and wear a pearl-buttoned cheongsam for a photoshoot of the "Mistress of the Deep Mansion." 🍜 Taste Bud Assault: Double-Topping Noodles (Crispy Fish and Stir-fried Eel Topping, 12 RMB) with Chilled Glutinous Rice and Lotus Root, and Embroidered Vegetable Dumplings for 5 RMB at the Night Market (with a unique Nanxun fragrance!). 🚌 Transportation: Take the dedicated bus from Huzhou High-Speed Railway Station (6 RMB), or rowboats within the scenic area, 40 RMB/hour. 3️⃣, Xinshi | A Living Canal Town 🚤 Off-the-beaten-path Activities: - Xihekou Morning Market: Free! Sit on bamboo benches by the river for morning tea (2 RMB with unlimited refills), watch an elderly woman row a boat selling water chestnuts, and wear a cotton and linen dress for a Venice waterfront photoshoot. - Juehai Zen Temple Sutra Copying: Get free rice paper to copy the Heart Sutra, listen to the chime of the ancient ginkgo tree, and receive a consecrated lotus bookmark. 🍜 Carb Paradise: Linjiapuzi Lamb Noodles (15 RMB)—crispy and tender without any greasy smell! Tea cakes (3 yuan) burst open with juicy fillings, served with mint and mung bean soup to cool down. 🚲 Transportation: Hangzhou East → Deqing Station (12 minutes by high-speed train, 16 yuan), or a 20 yuan taxi directly to the ancient town. 💡 Tips for Solo Travelers 1. Tips to Avoid: - For Shaoxing Wupeng Boats, opt for a "one-way" experience, not a full-day package (easy to get tired of); Nanxun rickshaw drivers often recommend "combination tickets," which are often overpriced; buying individual scenic spot tickets is more cost-effective. 2. Tips for Avoiding Peak Seasons: - The hometown of the Sage of Calligraphy is densest with lanterns after 7 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays; the morning mist at Nanxun Baijianlou is at its most enchanting on Wednesdays; avoid tour groups for morning tea in Xinshi between 5 and 7 PM. 3. Style Tips: - For water towns, bring an indigo tie-dyed skirt and an oil-paper umbrella (for reflective effect); for ancient temples, wear a cream-colored linen robe with a jade hairpin; use your phone in "soft light mode" for instant photos! ✨ To the sober traveler: "What we're giving up isn't Wuzhen, but the crowded compromises; What we're embracing is more than just tranquility, but the Zen sound of ginkgo leaves falling on scriptures." #UnpopularAncientTownCeiling #JiangnanFreeSecrets #FemaleSoloTravelerSafetyHandbook
