We cycled from Shuishe to Xiangshan Visitor Centre. It was a pleasant and easy ride and we stopped at many places along the way for photoshoots. This visitor centre is quite big, and even on a weekday, there were lots of visitors. Many people just sit around behind the infinity pool and admire the lake view in front.
