Taihuyuan Scenic Area

After the fun dance, visitors can explore the Taihuyuan Scenic Area and get up close and personal with wild monkeys. Also featured is Hangzhou's first 5D suspended glass bridge, touted as "East China's highest and Zhejiang's longest," a must-see for internet celebrities. Tie a red ribbon and pray for blessings from high above, embarking on a thrilling new experience and enjoying the charm of the Taihuyuan Forest Oxygen Bar.

There is only one road in the scenic area, so there is no problem of getting lost. The team leader requires us to gather at the entrance of the scenic area at 12:30. Because it is a mountain and water scenery, all activities are visited on our own. You can feel the vacuum period of real mountains and real waters, take a few deep breaths, and absorb more oxygen ions.

We followed the stream and went uphill, taking photos and enjoying the scenery along the way. Soon we arrived at the highest point of Taihu Source Scenic Area - Taihu Source. When we saw the golden words "Taihu Source", we had reached all the developed scenic spots in the scenic area. We stopped and walked as often as we wanted, and the scenery was very beautiful, without feeling tired.

【080711】Everyone on the bus fell asleep. In the midst of boredom, the tranquil blue lake, with its shimmering waters, gave me a glimpse of eternity.

The Taihu Source Scenic Area is located at the southern foot of Mushan Mountain in Lin'an, Hangzhou. The main source of Taihu Lake lies here, hence the name Taihu Source. The scenic area boasts a ten-mile long valley and boasts fifteen scenic spots, including: Dragon Beard Wall, Yunbitan Lake, Siyuan Corridor, Qianren Cliff, Shenfeng Valley, Shuanglongtan, Ancient Buddha Temple, Baizhang Waterfall, Xianren Terrace, and Sacrifice Altar.

We drove for 5 hours from Yuyao, with traffic jams all the way, and arrived at 2 pm. The ticket to Taihuyuan was 83 yuan, and it was free for locals. After entering, they said that during the National Day holiday, the glass plank road 78 was only 70 yuan. After I got the ticket, the face value was the 70 yuan ticket. And the 5D effect didn't work today. It was broken, and they didn't even tell me when I bought the ticket. It was disgusting. It cost 150 yuan per person, and I walked a few steps on the glass bridge. As for the other scenery, there was nothing special, and it was the same everywhere.

The most satisfying attraction of this trip is the mountains and rivers. It is not tiring to play while climbing.

Opposite the entrance of Taihuyuan Scenic Area, there is a shop called Jiangnan Weizhuang. It is a black shop. They lure customers to eat at their shop by offering to help them buy tickets for the scenic area and force them to spend money. It is terrible. Don't go in.

It's a very ordinary scenery. A stream flows down the mountain. Tourists climb up the mountain along the stream. How did it become a small Jiuzhai? Did it change after visiting it?

As the source of Taihu Lake, it's nestled deep in the mountains. The scenic area appears to be still under development. The scenery is stunning, with beautiful mountains, water, and even the upcoming glass bridge is particularly captivating.

We went in November, so we didn't see much of Jiuzhaigou. But the scenery was still nice. It's right next to Daming Mountain, so it's a good place to spend some time.

The entire scenic area is themed around the source of Taihu Lake. You can stroll around and explore the mountains and water. You can even buy a fishing net to catch small fish, which is probably the most enjoyable aspect. The water is cool, and the mountain breeze is soothing. The first two-thirds of the mountain residence is relatively gentle, with only the last section having some stairs. Overall, it's a comfortable trip, perfect for the whole family. Bring some goodies and enjoy the walk while you eat.

The Huyuan Scenic Area is vast, making it ideal for a self-drive experience. Once you enter the mountainous area, the scenery along both sides is breathtaking, perfect for stopping and strolling. Compared to the scorching heat and bustle of Hangzhou, Taihuyuan offers a refreshing and tranquil atmosphere. The average temperature here is 7-8 degrees Celsius lower than Hangzhou, and the dense shade of the canyon shields you from the scorching sun and the oppressive heat. A cool breeze sweeps through your body, sending a cooling sensation from your feet to your head.

Located at the southern foot of Tianmu Mountain in Lin'an, Hangzhou, the scenic area is known for its origins, the source of Taihu Lake. The scenic area boasts a ten-mile-long valley, and its main attractions include: Dragon Beard Wall, Yunbitan Lake, Siyuan Corridor, Xihouping, Qianren Cliff, Shenfeng Valley, Shuanglongtan, Ancient Buddha Temple, Baizhang Waterfall, Xianren Terrace, and Jiyuan Altar. With cliffs crisscrossing, clear streams cascading, waterfalls cascading, and herds of wild monkeys, the scenic area is known as the "Little Jiuzhaigou" for its ecological and pristine beauty, resembling that of Jiuzhaigou.

The 83 yuan entrance fee is too expensive. It's nothing compared to Jiuzhaigou. The little stream is worthless. A poor, skinny monkey was chained to a small hut. There were no wild monkeys there. The scenic area is dirty and messy, bringing shame to the people of Zhejiang.

Anyone who has visited Taihuyuan will vividly remember the herd of wild monkeys. The monkeys have been present there for a long time, and local mountain dwellers allowed them to live freely in the canyon, making them the "indigenous" inhabitants of Taihuyuan. This gave rise to the nickname "Hua Hou Gou," a touching scene of harmonious coexistence between humans and animals.

Arguably, no other scenic spot in the grand canyons of western Zhejiang boasts the concentration, exquisiteness, and beauty of Taihuyuan. Taihuyuan Township boasts numerous grand canyons, with Taihuyuan being the most vibrant of them all. A beautiful canyon over ten miles long winds down from the mountaintop, creating a myriad of waterfalls, streams, and streams, leaving behind more than a dozen cultural attractions.

The attraction was undergoing maintenance, delaying its opening by an hour with no prior notice. The most frustrating part was that a security guard, along with a team of people, offered a 50% discount with a single sentence. When I questioned her, the ticket seller confidently replied, "It's someone above you who's been there, so there's nothing you can do. It's okay if you have connections." This really casts doubt on the credibility of this attraction. Without rules, they definitely don't follow them. Furthermore, most attractions nationwide offer half-price admission for those over 60, but here it's only half-price for those over 70, while in other cities and counties, those over 70 are already free. Lin'an left a very bad impression on me. Respect for the elderly is very poor. Very poor.

That's the Taihu Source. While there aren't many surprises or grandeur, a trip through the mountains in autumn is still quite refreshing. Sitting by the Taihu Source, drinking tea made from spring water, it's a beautiful autumn day in the cool weather.

Before graduating from university, my classmates went on a trip together. The scenery was beautiful~

The scenery of Taihu Source is much better than that of Baishuijian, but unfortunately the weather was bad and the shooting effect was unsatisfactory.

After visiting Tianmu Mountain, I was a little disappointed compared to Taihu Source. I felt that the ticket price was not really worth it. After all, apart from the gimmick of Taihu Source, there was nothing particularly special about the scenery. There were no good B&Bs nearby, so I returned to Lin'an City for the night.

On the first day, I visited Taihuyuan, which is basically a canyon and a waterfall, but it's just average overall.

On the way from the Grand Canyon of Western Zhejiang to Hangzhou, you can visit the source of Taihu Lake.

The source of Taihu Lake was originally named Houmaogou, suggesting the abundance of wild monkeys that once roamed the area, and many can still be seen today. After entering the mountain gate, follow the stream up Longxu Gorge, where a profusion of dragon beard grass adorns the cliffs. Passing the Longxu Ancient Zen Temple, you'll arrive at the temple's upper courtyard, where you'll see a mountain spring flowing from the rocks. This is what the locals call the source of Dongtiaoxi, the main stream of the Taihu Lake system. The path further up the mountain is closed to traffic.

The entire Taihuyuan scenic area is very good, with a lot of wild animals and plants, but it seems to be far from being called a small Jiuzhaigou.

The Taihuyuan Scenic Area itself isn't particularly steep or dangerous, and a two-hour hike up and down is easy. Naturally, the child wasn't interested in mountain climbing. Fishing in the stream was more his thing. Even the pretty sisters came to help. What could be more captivating for a child than a stream? On this midsummer day, with a cool drizzle, 28-degree temperatures, and the playful little grouper.

Taihuyuan, known as the "Little Jiuzhaigou", is actually just a ravine and does not have any significant advantages in terms of natural scenery.

As a Zhejiang native, I felt embarrassed when I saw Little Jiuzhaigou.

I probably won't be back to Taihuyuan next time. Next time I go to the real Jiuzhaigou and see the small bridges and flowing water. The farm food will still make us miss it. If I could cook, I think I might bring back some fresh bamboo shoots (hold back! Don't laugh!). This trip was actually quite rewarding. It also helped me relax after a whole year of work.

Autumn at the source of Taihu Lake is a poetic spectacle. The sky is clear and high, dotted with a few white clouds. The mountains are covered in red and gold, interspersed with evergreen trees, creating a vibrant display of color. In the south, late autumn is a vibrant display of vibrant colors. It's easy to get drunk on this vibrant wine!

It is said that there are many wild animals on the mountain, but I only saw macaques. The scenery is still very good.

I don't recommend going to Xiaojiuzhaigou. It's a world of difference from Jiuzhaigou.

It's a boring road. It's the same road up and back. The scenery is not very good.

Yao Ming took his wedding photos here! Haha!

Lin'an is known as Hangzhou's back garden and natural oxygen bar. It has pleasant scenery and is also a "cool world" for Hangzhou's summer heat escape. At the source of Taihu Lake deep in the southern foot of Tianmu Mountain, crystal clear streams can be seen everywhere in the mountain streams. The winding streams and the breeze blowing through them bring a cool feeling from time to time. Here you can not only enjoy the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers, but also it is our must-go place to escape the heat wave of Hangzhou every year.

In 2007, Yao Ming and his wife came to Taihuyuan to take wedding photos, which greatly increased the popularity of this niche attraction. Yao Ming and his wife planted a love tree by hand, wishing their love to be sweet. Where there are mountains, there must be temples. There is an open area in front of the ancient Buddhist temple, where you can listen to Buddhist chants and smell the fragrance of tea. It is a good place to relax your body and mind. There are scenery everywhere, and every step is a scene. Taihuyuan after the rain, the air is fresh, and the emerald green is gorgeous. The Immortal Terrace welcomes you calmly at the highest point of the canyon. A "source monument" in the Mingyuan Pavilion comforts the desire to find the source. The word "source" expresses infinite Zen meaning.

An excellent place for self-driving travel and summer leisure.

More than ten years ago, I accompanied my mother to Lin'an and the scenery of Xiao Jiuzhai was very beautiful.

Water is the soul of Taihu Lake Source. The water of Taihu Lake Source is extremely clear, pure and approachable.

The scenery is beautiful, with lakes and mountains. It's nice to relax here.

Lin'an Taihu Source (Little Jiuzhaigou) Scenic Area is a scenic area in Lin'an. The most impressive thing about this scenic area is that there are countless dragon beard grasses as soon as you step into the scenic area, and high mountains and forests on both sides; and Yao Ming took wedding photos in the scenic area!

The Taihu Source also prominently features a stone inscription that reads "The Source of Taihu Lake." Entering the building, one sees a cascading stream, its churning waters surging over a man-made rolling dam, a truly remarkable sight.

It's a small scenery, but it's still far behind Jiuzhaigou.

To appreciate the beautiful scenery of Zhejiang, you need to calm down and enjoy it slowly, and the taste will come out.

Super beautiful, super beautiful, super beautiful, important things should be said three times

It is a small canyon between two mountains. Near the top of the mountain, there is a stone tablet with the words "Taihu Origin" engraved on it.

It is said that the place where Yao Ming took his wedding photos was full of gimmicks, like an ordinary Grand Canyon, where a group of monkeys would snatch things.

The scenery is very nice, a good place for self-driving tour.

I don't think Taihuyuan is very big. It became famous probably because Yao Ming took wedding photos there. There are wedding photos of Yao Ming in the scenic area. There are amusement projects but they are more suitable for children. There are monkeys but it smells bad when you get close to them. It's nice to go and see the scenery.

As someone who grew up near Taihu Lake, finding its source is a very meaningful thing. The water is still very clean, and it was quite fun to take pictures and play around.

Taihuyuan seems to have become famous because Liu Xiang took his wedding photos there. As soon as you enter Taihuyuan, there's a sign introducing Liu Xiang and his wife, and there's also a wedding photo of them. The scenery is beautiful and lush. There's a small temple on the top of the mountain, not too big or small, and you can wander around for a while. There's also a monkey trainer there. When I went there, the monkeys were still in cages and hadn't been released yet, but the area around them was really smelly. Hahahaha.

You need to climb the mountain. When you return, you will reach the temple and see the natural scenery.

The air is very good and the scenery is amazing! It is a great place to travel!

The scenery is very ordinary. There are many tour groups, so the small scenic area seems crowded. It may be because we went in May and there was not enough rain this year, so the water volume was very small, so the scenery hotel was greatly discounted.

One summer, I went to Lin'an with a few friends for a two-day, one-night stay. The afternoon we arrived, we went to Taihuyuan. Since we were still students at the time, we didn't drive ourselves. We hailed a minibus at the entrance of a farmhouse. We didn't have our student IDs, so we didn't get a discount. Booking tickets online would have offered discounts, but we didn't book. We reached a water play area and bought a few water guns, which looked like air pumps. We then let loose, completely soaking wet, and continued up the mountain. There was a water stall near the top, and the prices were a bit high, but I've bought water in scenic areas of Chiang Mai, and the prices are the same as in the city. At the top, we visited a temple and prayed. A monk told us it didn't matter how much we put in, but a friend who went in with us suggested we put in everything we had. Since we were playing in the water, we didn't have much money with us; our wallets were in the bag of another friend who hadn't gone in. So, we only put in a dozen or so yuan, just to show our appreciation. Many people go to Lin'an every year to escape the summer heat. Indeed, looking at the green all around makes you feel less hot. I highly recommend it.

I feel like I went there at a bad time, the water flow was not very strong.

The view is full of green trees and the air is fresh, making it a forest oxygen bar. The water quality is also good, and the stream flowing down from the mountain is very clear and sweet.

I went there when it was raining. The water was very big. There were mountains and water. The whole journey took more than 2 hours and was not tiring. There were rest stops along the way. The mountain watermelon was 50 yuan each and very sweet.

The scenery is nice and refreshing, but parking is difficult. There is no parking near the scenic area, and the mountain road is also narrow.

Very ordinary, you can go there to escape the heat in the summer, the scenery is really ordinary

It's about three or four kilometers from the foot of the mountain to the top. There are small shops along the way, and there are places where you can get mountain spring water. There is a teahouse for rest halfway up the mountain, but they won't let you sit on the benches if you don't drink tea. You also need to bring a coat in the summer because it's really cold in the mountains.

Taihuyuan is very cool in summer and is worth a visit if you have time. There are not many tourist and entertainment activities, but the natural scenery is beautiful.

It is the end of the river. This view really has mountains, water and rivers.

The scenery is really beautiful. It was a cloudy day with occasional drizzle. But it was really beautiful. The air was fresh!

The place where Yao Ming took his wedding photo has a beautiful view and is also a good place to escape the summer heat. The mountain is not too high, and you can climb the steps along the stream and enjoy a cool world for half a day.

The place is not big, and it takes half a day to walk to the end. Just to see the scenery

Located in the East Tianmu Mountain Natural Ecological Zone, the Taihu Source, at the source of the Dongtiaoxi River, the main river in the Taihu Lake system, is known as the "Little Jiuzhaigou Valley." With a vegetation coverage rate of 95%, the scenic area boasts a rich variety of plant species, with wild landscape plants scattered throughout the mountains and fields, creating captivating scenery year-round. It is also a wildlife paradise, home to several nationally protected species, including the black muntjac and macaque.

The scenic area is 20 kilometers away from Lin'an City, 65 kilometers away from Hangzhou, and about three hours' drive from major cities such as Shanghai, Nanjing, and Suzhou. It has obvious location advantages and is an excellent place for tourism and leisure.

The source of Taihu Lake is located in the natural ecological zone of Dongtianmu Mountain in Lin'an. It is the source of Dongtiaoxi River, the main river of Taihu Lake system, and is known as "Little Jiuzhaigou".

The ticket seller said that only local students in Lin'an can buy student tickets, haha! We climbed up a stream beside the S13 highway and soon reached the top, then returned the same way. It cost 88 yuan. However, Lin'an is full of mountains, and there are many fun places.

I went there a few years ago, so the memory is a bit blurry. I vaguely remember that the air and environment were good, and I enjoyed playing in the water and eating farm food.

It's still a little different from Jiuzhaigou, but it's really cool in the summer and the scenery is pretty good.

Back then, it was said that this was where Yao Ming took his wedding photos. Unfortunately, it was raining when we went there, but because of the high humidity, the area was surrounded by mist, which actually gave it a different feel.

Located in Taihuyuan Town, Lin'an City, it has fresh air and beautiful environment, making it a good place to escape the summer heat and cool down.

I went there with a tour group before, but it was just average and not as fun as Daming Mountain.

I have been there countless times. You need to buy a ticket to enter. The ecological environment is very good. There are wild monkeys on the mountain and they will ask tourists for food. There are many farmhouses around the scenic area that provide food and accommodation. It is worth a visit.

The source of Taihu Lake has relatively low mountains and is known as the Little Jiuzhaigou. However, there are large-scale construction projects in the scenic area, such as the construction of temples, which focuses more on man-made landscapes.
