The Wuxie Scenic Area is located 20 kilometers west of Zhuji City. It was originally named ‘Wuxie Scenic Area’. The scenic area is divided into four parts from the outside to the inside: Wuxie Lake Scenic Area, Taoyuan Scenic Area, Dongyuan, and Xiyuan. The so-called ‘xie’ is a waterfall. There is a five-fold waterfall in the scenic area, which is a major attraction of the scenic area. The scenery of Wuxie is different in different seasons. You can play in the water in summer, see red leaves in autumn, and see ginkgo in early winter. The scenery is very good. After entering the scenic area, you must first take a boat across Wuxie Lake at the dam pier. After disembarking at Tianyibi Pier, you can start to walk and play. The transportation into the scenic area is divided into two types: free scheduled boats and paid yachts. The free scheduled boats run about every 45 minutes. Yachts are available at any time, but an additional fee is required. After disembarking, walk about 500 meters to the battery car station. You can take a battery car through the Taoyuan Scenic Area to Wuxie Temple (5 yuan). You can also walk on the left footpath and arrive in about 20 minutes. The battery car drop-off station is also the intersection of Dongyuan and Xiyuan. Wuxie Waterfall and Wuxie Temple are in Dongyuan. Xiyuan can be climbed. The two sides are connected at the top of the mountain. Usually, tourist groups only go to Dongyuan to see Wuxie Waterfall and then return the same way. If you have enough time, you can choose to go up the mountain from one side by yourself, cross Ziwei Ridge, and go down the mountain from the other side without retracing your steps. In comparison, the scenery of Dongyuan is more classic, but some places have relatively steep steps. While Xiyuan is a relatively flat and easy cement path with fewer tourists. Usually go up the mountain from Dongyuan. In front of Wuxie Temple near the entrance of Dongyuan, there is a thousand-year-old ginkgo tree, which is a scene of Wuxie. Walking from bottom to top, it is the fifth waterfall to the first waterfall. The shapes of each waterfall are different. The fifth waterfall has a large amount of water and a strong momentum, which is very spectacular. The higher up the waterfall, the more graceful and beautiful it is. When it comes to the first and second waterfalls, the waterfalls are very small and gentle. In summer, the waterfall area is very cool and is a good place to escape the heat. Continuing up, you will reach Liulongping in the transition area between Dongyuan and Xiyuan. There is a tea room here where you can have tea and take a break. Not far ahead is the highest point, Ziwei Ridge. Standing on the peak is a great feeling and the scenery is also good. After crossing Ziwei Ridge, you will arrive at Xiyuan. Xiyuan and Dongyuan are completely different sceneries. Although they are both valleys, here are wet mountain paths and gurgling streams, which are extremely fresh and quiet. There is no momentum and roar of Dongyuan at all. Go down the mountain easily along the footpath and you can return to the battery car station. Tourists usually spend three to five hours visiting the scenic area and then return to Zhuji, or transfer to a bus to continue visiting Xishi Hometown. If you want to stay here for a while longer, there are tea rooms and restaurants in Dongyuan and Xiyuan where you can have a meal. The price is fairly reasonable. You can stay in the cabins near the fifth waterfall and the Wuxie Resort at the entrance of the scenic area. The standard room is about two to three hundred yuan.
