Zhuji is a pleasant small city in Zhejiang Province. Its famous Wuxie Waterfall, with its refreshing waterfalls and lush forest surroundings, is a great summer escape. Transportation is generally convenient, with both high-speed rail and train stations close by. Take bus No. 57 from Zhuji Station directly to the South Gate (5 yuan fare). The last bus departs around 5:00 PM, so it's recommended to leave early and return late to avoid delays.
Driving: From Hangzhou/Shanghai, the journey takes approximately 1.5-3 hours. Navigate to "Wuxie National Forest Park." Parking is 10-20 yuan per day.
Admission: Adults 70 yuan (half-price for students), including round-trip ferry tickets. Hangzhou/Shaoxing residents are exempt from admission with ID (a 20 yuan ferry ticket is required). Electric carts are 5 yuan one-way, and you can take them to reduce walking distance.
The Fifth Waterfall (20-30 meters drop) is shrouded in mist, creating an instant cool breeze from the observation deck. The average summer temperature is only around 25°C, 5-8°C lower than in the city. A recommended upstream tour route: Climb from the most spectacular Fifth Falls to the First Falls. The stone steps along the way are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes. After rain, the water level is even higher, so please exercise caution.
Outside the scenic area, recommended farmhouses offer local chicken stew and Wuxie creek fish. In the city, try Xishi tofu and Ciwu noodles.
Overall, it was okay. The climb wasn't tiring, and the scenery was nice. The waterfall was just okay, hahaha.
If you're traveling with kids and just want to see Wuxie, it won't take too long, a little over 2 hours round trip, and it won't be tiring.
If you still have energy left, you can continue to the summit for a deeper experience, which will take about 3-4 hours.
One thing to note is that the boat runs every half hour, so plan your arrival and departure times to avoid long waits in the heat!

Xishi's hometown is based on the theme of "Xishi culture", which blends nature and humanistic landscape. There is a thousand-year-old Xishi Palace, which displays folk architectural art; Fan Yu adopts the Qing Dynasty style, showing simplicity and elegance. Walking on the banks of the Lisha River, you can not only enjoy the Lisha stone of Wang Qian's inscription, but also participate in the Lijiang night tour, watch the immersive stage drama "Dream Searching Xishi", and feel the ancient style.
I wanted to go on a night boat tour, but was told that all boats were fully booked that day. So I booked this tour instead.
The lighting effect is good, and the music is beautiful, but I can't remember which original song it was.
The story is also very complete.
But I went too late, and the pillars in front of the seat were completely blocked, which was a pity.
