Taiping Hash: March 21

This month, we head back across the Hangzhou Bay Bridge for a run in the Ningbo
area.

The run will start from Jinxian Temple in Minghe, Zhejiang. The trail will head
off to the Wulei mountains (400 m) and the Duhu and Baiyanghu lakes. Duhu Lake
is about three times the size of Hangzhou's West Lake.

The trail will cross orchards, bamboo forests, duck farms, brick kilns, a dam
... amazing scenery and panoramas guaranteed!

To take in all the spectacular scenery, the hares are planning a rather long run
of about 2 hours for FRBs. The short run for walkers is estimated to take around
2 1/2 hours. Walkers are recommended to take the short run.

The run also has plenty of cultural sites. Minghe has a history of more than
1,200 years and the temple was built in Ciwu reign of the Three Kingdoms
Dynasty.
