Quzhou is a must-visit stop at the source of the Qianjiang River. One day, between the Nankong Temple and Jianglang Mountain, encounter the unique atmosphere of Quzhou.

Before venturing deep into Quzhou, the presence of the Southern Confucius Temple had already arrived. From afar, seeing that scene, even the fatigue from traveling quietly soothed, and he just wanted to stand a little longer.

Jianglang Mountain is the most visually stunning part of Quzhou. Following its veins slowly, every corner hides a different expression, stretching time and space here.

Avoiding the crowds and slipping into Lanke Mountain, Quzhou reveals its true self. Old people, alleys, stoves, and laughter all settle in your memory before the scenic spots.

After nightfall, the Longyou Grottoes in Quzhou are lit up, and the warm yellow glow turns the grandeur of the day into gentleness. Sitting down and doing nothing is also a form of arrival.

When leaving Quzhou, I felt a bit reluctant, but the memory of the Nankong Temple replayed in my mind. But it was precisely this reluctance that proved this trip was worthwhile—it quietly left a part of itself with you.
