ALEXA ROBBINS

Drive for 2h from Hangzhou to explore the secret realm of Tang Poetry Road in Qixiakeng Village, Siming Mountains

Ah J has traveled through the self-driving route with an extraordinary cultural heritage. It's the very road that has been visited by more than 400 poets during the Tang Dynasty! 'No complaints about the narrow valley, as the mountain will reveal the path ahead' Strolling in Qixiakeng, I just feel like I've brought too few Tang poems with me. Seeing the ancient bridge in the village, the ancients would 'see the old vines, trees, and crows at dusk, a small bridge over flowing water, a household', while I can only exclaim 'What a beautiful bridge!' Under the bridge are the ducks in the stream, By the road stride the proud flocks of chickens, On the ancient path lies a lazy yellow dog, Smoke rises, twilight falls, Following the traces of the ancient village, leisurely times. 📍Navigation: Qixiakeng Village, Xikou Town, Fenghua, Ningbo (only 20 minutes from Xikou exit of the highway) 💰Admission: No ticket 🅿️Parking: Either park at the entrance of the village or by the river inside the village ✅Nearby attractions: Siming Mountain, Tingxia Lake, Shizi Pants, Tangtian The mountain roads in the village are quite narrow, although there are not many cars, you still need to be careful when passing each other. While driving on the mountain roads, you can also see the Siming Mountain Bridge, a beautiful sight! Driving from the Xikou highway exit, you can just follow the road along Tingxia Lake! Ah J left at night, so I didn't get to see the lake view. I am Ah J, who drives to the mountains for fun on weekends. I've completed 81/100 of the less-known self-driving spots around Hangzhou. Come and unlock more hidden gems with me.
