Tonglu Daqishan is quite high for the average person. The scenery and natural landscapes are very well protected here, the air is very fresh, and there are various small streams and natural waterfalls that will make your eyes light up. Below, I will share a Tonglu Daqishan self-guided tour strategy.
The mountain is over 600 meters high. This altitude is really hard to inspire awe. While climbing, I heard a tour guide say that Daqishan’s altitude is less than 1,000 meters, and I couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed. However, since I was already here, I decided to continue climbing upwards, climbing mountains and looking into the distance, I must reach the peak.
The parking lot at the foot of the mountain
There is a stream on the mountain, and the road is like a rope wrapped around it, sometimes on the left side of the stream and sometimes on the right.
Stream
The entrance stretches to the foot of the mountain. All the way there are people asking: Isn’t it mountain climbing? Why are we going down first? All the way there are stone steps that slowly descend and then slowly rise again. First, you encounter a bamboo forest, with huge bamboo shoots growing in spring standing tall among them.
Moving forward, you enter a meandering journey that is sometimes left and sometimes right. The sunlight at the end of April is very dazzling. Fortunately, the mountains are full of green, and the shade of the trees above often comes to the rescue, so it doesn’t feel hot.
Hidden Spring
May is about to come, and there are not as many kinds of azalea flowers as imagined. Only occasionally clusters of white dots are scattered on the opposite green grass, which are wild rose flowers.
Clear Water Does Not Hold Fish

Large and small round stones lie horizontally in the water, the gravel at the bottom of the water is clearly visible. Some people simply take off their shoes and walk in the shallower parts of the stream, or simply go to the round stones in the middle to sit down.
Stream all the way
Shadow
This is the case at the foot of the mountain, the middle of the mountain, and even the top of the mountain. The water remains unchanged in color, and it is still visible at the bottom. Only the stones get bigger and bigger. When you reach the top of the mountain, there is simply an array of giant rocks blocking the way, with waterfalls continuously pouring down from above the array of rocks. You can hear the sound of the water rushing before you even step inside.

Waterfalls everywhere
Artificial waterfall
The waterfalls along the way are all different, some are small and gentle with waves, some are like a lady with elegant teeth and a comb, some are three falls in one, or one fall in three.

Along the way, dozens of deep pools did not see any small fish or shrimp swimming in them. People often wash their hands by the pool or sit on the stones by the stream and stare blankly. Some children even refused to move forward and stayed by the water. Only in a pool halfway up the mountain were there a few red carp swimming around. These beautiful carp were not blocked by water plants or any other man-made structures. They seemed to be swaying in mid-air, and they seemed to be floating in an empty glass tank. The fins and tail patterns of the fish were clearly visible, giving people the feeling of looking at them through a magnifying glass or nearsighted glasses. There was no dust stirred up in the fallen leaves or the deep blue bottomless part of the pool, which made the fish seem like they were not of the mortal world.
