    Jiuxi 18 Stream

    The Jiuxi Eighteen Streams area is renowned for its crisscrossing streams and endless tea plantations. Nine streams converge here, with eighteen brooks winding through dense forests and bamboo groves, their waters murmuring as they flow. Along the way, the trail passes scenic spots such as Jiuxi Village and Li'an Temple. The landscape changes with the seasons – emerald green tea fields in spring, fiery red leaves in autumn – offering a rustic charm that perfectly captures the graceful spirit of Jiangnan. This is an ideal route for a light, enjoyable hike.
