A new chapter of hiking in the Nine Creeks and Eighteen Gullies cleanses your soul

Take a leisurely walk through the Nine Creeks Smoke Trees during the weekend holidays, and enjoy the autumn scenery on a hiking trip. Recently, taking advantage of the leisure time during the weekend, I embarked on a hiking trip to the Nine Creeks Smoke Trees. The weather in September is cool and pleasant, making it a great time to travel. Upon reaching the Nine Creeks Smoke Trees, I was greeted by the shade of green trees and the babbling of the stream, a sight too beautiful to describe. Our itinerary was quite fulfilling. At 10:30 in the morning, we arrived at the entrance of the Nine Creeks Smoke Trees and began our hiking journey. Walking along the winding path, we could occasionally hear the chirping of birds and the gurgling of the stream, as if we were in a landscape painting. About an hour later, we reached Longjing Village. The environment here is serene and elegant, with the fragrance of tea pervading the air. We tasted the local Longjing tea, as well as small wontons and a special 'Pian Er' soup (noodles), which were delicious and left a lasting impression. After lunch, we took a short rest before starting our ascent up the mountain. The mountain road ahead was quite steep, with a long flight of stairs that we needed to climb. Although it was somewhat strenuous, the scenery along the way was captivating. After about 30 minutes of climbing, we finally reached the summit. Standing at the top of the mountain and looking around, we saw mountains stretching into the distance, shrouded in mist, as if we were in a fairyland. We thoroughly enjoyed the view, took photos to commemorate the moment, and felt the magical charm of nature. The descent was much easier, and we returned along the same path, admiring the beauty of the Nine Creeks Smoke Trees along the way. In the evening, we concluded our hiking trip and returned home with wonderful memories. This hiking trip to the Nine Creeks Smoke Trees made me appreciate the beauty and magic of nature. In the midst of a busy life, it's worth taking the time to step into nature, feel its charm, and allow your soul to relax and be purified. Plan and layout your travel route
