East Mountain has a saying:

Not to the east mountain for a long time, rose a few times flowers. The white clouds are still dispersing themselves, and the bright moon is falling. --Li Bai, " Remembering the East Mountain ".

Dongshan, the place of origin of the wisdom and culture of Xie An, a famous scholar of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, is also the birthplace of Chinese landscape poetry and an important stop on the Tang Poetry Road in East Zhejiang Province, which has become a popular destination for literati and writers to visit for thousands of years. This time, we search for the ancient road of Dongshan Mountain and start a journey of exploration of nature and humanity.

Natural Scenery

The Dongshan Ancient Trail is a quiet, far-reaching, and heart-stoppingly beautiful trail. The winding and undulating Dongshan Ancient Trail brings to your eyes the shadows of bamboo, the clear water of mountain springs, and the ancient charm of stone pavilions.

Starting from the entrance of Dongshan Ancient Trail, we pass through Drinking Horse River, Yousiqian Village, Shidong Bridge, etc., and finally arrive at Guoqing Zen Temple to see the beauty of Dongshan Mountain.

Gathering Of Talents

Gathering of Talents

Dongshan Ancient Trail is a place where the idiom of "East Mountain Rises Again" is truly reflected in the deep integration of culture and nature. Xie An's family sentiment, integrity and national spirit, from lying high on the East Mountain to assisting the Jin family, the historical deeds are passed down among the ancient paths.

Walking along the way, stone springs trickling, ancient temples quiet and distant, Xie Gongzhi quiet years, Yue kiln celadon fragments scattered among them, seems to be silently talking about the prosperity and wisdom of Shangyu in the past.

These ancient relics, such as the flow of time, in the ancient road intertwined with a deep and long poetic scroll, let a person's mind, thoughts drift.

In 383 A.D., the Battle of the Interlake allowed Xie An, who lived in seclusion in the East Mountain, to leave a magnificent history in the history books. And Guoqing Zen Temple witnessed the historical moment of Xie An lying high on the East Mountain, rising again from the East Mountain, and giving up his house as a temple.
