Fenghuangshan 1

Because the mountain extends from south to north, like a phoenix spreading its wings and flying eastward, it is named Phoenix Mountain. The mountain road is winding, the forest is quiet and green plants are everywhere. Standing on the Fengge at the top of the mountain overlooking, you can see Huangchengting in the north, Qiantang River in the south and the foggy West Lake in the west.

2. Jiangsu Railway

It is the first officially operated railway in Zhejiang history, with a total length of about 16 km. More than 100 years ago, the railway started from Jiangganmen in the south and led to Hushu Chen Gong Bridge along Shaoxing Road, hence the name Jiangshu Railway. The present railway site is a very small park. It takes less than ten minutes to walk around without punching in and taking pictures. The park is adjacent to the block, and nearby residents can see an old motorcycle at any time. It's very nostalgic now and has a sense of the times.
