A
Night by the West Lake after Huangshan Hiking
If you want to spend a relaxing tour in
China, a Yellow Mountain hiking is strongly
suggested and I’m sure you will have had
a worthwhile trip with a fantastic mountain
conquer and a quiet night by a beautiful
lake.
Day 1. You can fly here or take a night
train one day earlier and stay overnight
in the best hotel on the top, 1700 meters
above sea level, a really cool world.
Day 2. Watch the sunrise in front of your
hotel and have a trekking tour afterwards
all over the mountain. Get down in the afternoon
and stay by the lake side in a Ming household.
Day 3. Have a boating tour on the lake and
enjoy the splendid landscape of the surroundings.
Then you can either go fishing, or fruit
picking on the lake side, such as tangerines,
chestnuts, persimmons, or peaches and apricots
if your tour is arranged in next May or
June. The kitchen is ready for your fishing
trophies and you can enjoy a typical local
flavor at noon and then check out for some
nearby Ming villages, which are also well-known
hot tourist attractions, such as Chengkan,
Tangmo and old town of Shexian.
Late in the afternoon you can have a stroll
on the early market street in the downtown
and you can try the signature dishes at
the local best restaurant. Then go to the
airport and take the night flight back to
Shanghai.
This trip is short but programs are colorful,
a tough trekking of a well-known mountain
in China, a quiet lake sightseeing and some
glimpse of local culture and history, which
are tightly compacted within three days.
Seeing is believing. Come over and you will
find a new frontier worthy to recommend
to your close friends.
De Mao Tang, which means Prosperous Virtue
Household in English, is a complex of ancient
houses located in the green hills by the
lake. It is really an ideal retreat from
Shanghai’s bustling and hustling life for
you to have a relaxed and quiet weekend.
All the buildings have traditional outlooks
of Ming style, but modern accommodations
inside. The rate might be a little bit higher
for common people but quite reasonable for
high-end consumers. After the mountain trekking
the day before, you can go boating on the
mirror-like lake and enjoy the fresh cool
air from the surrounding green hills. At
dusk you can have a stroll on the well-paved
paths around your Ming-styled accommodations
and get a bird-view of the whole lake. Though,
very traditional outside, the dwelling is
quite modern inside, with brand-new living
facilities for your room and toilet.
