Every hike is its own little story.

Today, Luyu Ancient Road (陆羽古道) in Huzhou (湖州) with friends & ten thousand mosquitoes.

A two-hour drive from Shanghai and you’re in a totally different scenery. (Two hours back and you’re surrounded by glass, concrete & coffee stores again.)

We only took the 6KM trail but with a hill, overgrown path, and creeks it had everything.

And thank you to this shushu for letting us shelter from the brief rain shower.
