In the middle of summer, the air is filled with the smell of summer heat, for me, the summer without playing in the water is incomplete, so the cool and exciting water rafting will be included in the list of summer must-do every year, wandering in the cool and transparent stream, so that the summer heat and the boredom of life are dissipated, and I feel the happiness and vividness.
Mention of Tonglu, you have to think of two words "dashing", more than 1700 years ago, "dashing Tonglu County", "flowing water with flowers" became the ancients' admiration for Tonglu. Even now, it still maintains a majestic temperament. Sitting in the car, looking out the window, surrounded by green mountains, whether it is bamboo forests, farmland, or villages built on the mountains, it can give people a leisure in the countryside and a clean place away from the hustle and bustle of the city. After more than an hour of driving, I arrived at the destination of this time, Tonglu Huxiao Gorge Rafting Scenic Area, and started a thrilling journey.
Huxiaoxia Scenic Area is located in Chengxia Village, Zhongshan Township, Tonglu County, Hangzhou. This gorge, cliffs and cliffs, deep caves, dense forests, narrow rivers, hitting rocks through the stream, mountains and valleys should be, like a tiger roaring wolf, so it is called "the five mountains return to see the mountain, the tiger roars back and does not splash the water".
There are 10 kilometers of canyons, 260 meters of vertical drop, because of the rapid, large drop, water and other characteristics of the creek section, thus forming the top stimulating sports characteristics of "small stream waves". In the process of waiting in line, listening to the screams of the passengers in front of me from time to time, I also followed the excitement.
After waiting for a long time, I finally got into the kayak, went down the water, rode the wind and waves all the way, and the rubber boat constantly collided in the river channel, and the 360-degree swirl was immersed in the cool stream, as if bungee jumping on the tip of the wave.
Suddenly, the 130-meter-high drop "steep drift" that went straight into the knife appeared in front of me, making my heart jump up and down with this approaching jumping platform, and in an instant, the water splashed around, and the feeling of peak control was vividly explained at this moment, and my screams and wild laughter were instantly drowned in the rushing Clear Creek water. With the waves, the rubber boat rushed down the rapids without hesitation, although the clothes were wet and the throat was almost hoarse, but the pressure accumulated in the heart for a long time was also released at this moment.
All the way thrilling, finally the river began to ease, I also took the opportunity to enjoy the scenery along the way, breathed in the fresh air, in the green mountains and beautiful water, suddenly feel refreshed. When we were still immersed in the beautiful scenery, suddenly a strong sense of weightlessness made me feel as if I was flying, but before I could fly enough, I fell to the bottom of the pool, it turned out to be the last jump, but everyone was still unfinished after the panic, if I could I still want to feel this invigorating stimulation again.
At the end of the end, the river began to become flat, which is also a beautiful place in The Tiger Howling Gorge, behind the wide water surface is the green bamboo cover, I lie on the kayak, close my eyes, relieve the excitement, at this time I am like a boat on the lake, without the outside world interference, quietly enjoy the mountain forest rain and dew here, after escaping the city, smell the air here, the heart is also sweet.
After a day of playing, the body gradually tired, approaching the evening, we came to Tonglu Heyun Homestay to check in.
Heyun Homestay is located in Lujiashan, Longxi Village, Zhongshan Township, Tonglu, where the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the scenery is pleasant, the folk customs are simple, and the house is not closed at night.
Enter the room, the space has a wide view, transparent and bright, warm and elegant, lying on the bed, listening to the insects in the mountains, you can enjoy the unbridled mountain years.
After a short break, we chose to have dinner here, taste the unique local farmhouse dishes, and the owner also prepared seasonal lobster, which was particularly comfortable. Although they are the most common ingredients, after slow firing, the aroma of meat and vegetables are fully integrated, the sauce is rich, the aftertaste is endless, and every bite is very satisfying, which makes me feel the authentic taste of the local farmhouse.
The room type of the stay is actually still with projection, after dinner, and friends open the projection, while enjoying the cinema-level viewing effect, while drinking tea and chatting, the fatigue of the day is dissolved in this quiet night.
