Over the weekend, I was flipping through the photo album on my phone. I came across the photos I took last month at Cixi Zhishan Park. The screen was so full of green that it almost overflowed.
At that time, I wanted to write something to share, but I have put it off until now.
There are landscape pictures of Zhishan Zhishan Park on the Internet. Most of them look beautiful and make people feel that the beauty is pretty good. However, they always lack something that can give people the feeling of being in that environment personally.
In this article today, I will take you on a walk to see if this "green lung of the city" hidden in the southwest corner of the city is worth a special trip.
Hidden in the mountains in the busy city
The most surprising thing about visiting Zhishan Park for the first time is that it is so close to the city, but yet so "wild".
The park got its name because there are two peaks facing each other in the park. As soon as you step into the entrance, you can feel the atmosphere of the wild mountains rushing towards you.
The rocks here are majestic and the bamboos and trees are green. They are scattered and orderly. They are not overly refined like some parks, but have a natural sense of elegance.
When we went there, the entire mountain was wrapped in green. In late spring, it was in a state of blooming flowers. It was indeed worthy of the elegant name of "Temple Mountain Pinnacle".
Many tourists come here specifically to take pictures of the scenery of Zhishan Park. However, to be honest, the lens cannot capture the immersive feeling of being surrounded by greenery.
Those old things in the park
Stop and go, and you will find that this park is quite interesting.
The originally built gate tower attractions still exist, the Huabiao attractions have not disappeared yet, and the Minggao Pavilion is still in a state of preservation, and the Songjing ruins are still intact, as well as the Western Zhou tomb ruins.
Thinking about it, on the one hand, people today are walking and exercising, and on the other hand, there are ancient monuments left thousands of years ago. This kind of intertwined feeling of time and space is quite strange and interesting.
Later, they were built one after another Children's Park , dug Lizi Lake , the park is becoming more and more popular.
The West Expansion Hiking Trail, which opened during the Spring Festival in 2013, has also won the title of "Ningbo Hiking Sports and Leisure Tourism Base". Walking here on weekends is much better than sitting on the sofa.
A little blessing in spring
We walked slowly along the road around the mountain. Begonia flowers were blooming extremely luxuriantly, winter jasmine flowers were also blooming very brightly, and the air was filled with a faint floral fragrance.
The trees have sprouted buds, and the green color makes people feel good.
An aunt passing by told us that in two weeks, the rhododendrons on the hillside will bloom and look better.
Therefore, for those who want to take the most beautiful scenery pictures of Zhishan Park, the best time is to arrive in mid-April until early May, when the scenery is at its peak.
Slow time by Lizi Lake
Walking towards Lizi Lake, the lake surface showed sparkling waves. Many people rented pedal boats and were swaying slowly and leisurely on the lake.
The liveliest thing is on the shore. Children hold small nets and squat in the shallow water, fishing for tadpoles, small fish and shrimps. Each one of them is absorbed in it.
There was a little boy who caught a shrimp. He was very excited and called his mother to come and watch. That pure joy was contagious.
Several people, all young people, were playing badminton in the open space next to them. When they started running, their T-shirts were soaked with sweat. This look is the energetic look that spring should have.
If you also have the idea of taking photos of such a rich life style, no matter how much you search for the scenery pictures of Zhishan Zhishan Park, it will not be as good as coming to experience it in person.
An exclusive perspective from a high altitude
Now that you are here, you must climb the west expansion area.
Follow the hiking trail to the highest point Viewing platform , with a panoramic view of the entire Cixi city.
When we went there, it was in the evening, and we happened to catch the sunset. The sky was dyed orange, and the lights in the city started to light up. It is difficult to describe the open feeling in words.
I heard from an old man who often comes here to exercise that the night scene is even more beautiful, with thousands of lights falling to the ground like stars.
Many guides only include pictures of the scenery of Zhishan Park during the day. In fact, the evening and night stages are the hidden easter eggs.
Remember to wear a pair of comfortable sneakers, there are a lot of steps, but the scenery at the top is definitely worth the price of admission.
Health experience on the mountain road
in the park Huanshan Road It is smooth and suitable for both brisk walking and jogging.
We met many surrounding residents, some of whom were jogging alone with headphones on, and others were walking briskly with three or five friends, chatting and exercising at the same time.
The air in the mountains is really good and contains high oxygen content. After walking around for a while, I felt that my whole body was smooth.
If you don’t want to climb too high, just take the mountain ring road. The whole journey takes about 40 minutes and the intensity is just right.
If you want to take pictures of the scenery of Chishan Park with a sports theme, taking a picture here will give you a sense of life.
For Cixi people, Zhishan Park is no longer just a scenic spot, but more like their own backyard.
You can climb mountains, see lakes, walk your kids, and exercise without having to travel too far.
Whether you are looking for a place to relax and unwind on the weekend, or you are here specifically to take photos and check in, you will not be disappointed here.
No matter how beautiful the scenery pictures of Zhishan Zhishan Park displayed on the Internet are, they are not as good as walking there in person and breathing in the fresh mountain air.
First choose a suitable weather, then invite your family and friends, and then go to this mountain hidden in the city to find the long-lost leisure and comfort.
