## About Xiangzhigou

A simple, natural mountain village with seven scenic areas, including Guodiqing, Nanjing Temple, Longjing Bay and Majiaochong. It preserves the ancient Cai Lun papermaking technique, dating back nearly 2,000 years, and produces paper used for folk ritual offerings. Clear streams, quiet hills, rolling water-powered mills, elevated water channels and farmhouses hidden in dense shade await.
