Mon Jaem Escapade: An Unexpected Summer Chill
In the thick of summer's blaze, I found a refreshing sanctuary in Mon Jaem, Thailand. With temperatures surprisingly dipping to 19 degrees Celsius, it felt like a cool embrace amid the typically scorching season.
I traversed the verdant landscapes, breathing in the crisp air that held a hint of the imminent rain, and marveled at the panoramic views that stretched out as far as the eye could see. As if this mountain retreat wasn't enchanting enough, the temperature drop added an unexpected layer of serenity that soothed my city-weary soul.
Amidst this natural tranquillity, I indulged in a simple yet satisfying meal. The aroma of basil pork rice wafted in the cool air, and each bite seemed to fuse with the ethereal landscape. Dessert was a delightful Daifuku, its sweet chewiness perfectly complementing the savory main course.
Here in Mon Jaem, I discovered that summer could indeed be a season of cool retreat and gastronomic delight.

A view of the Karst Mountains from Moon Hill
#tripblazers #mountainescape #yangshuo
With around 1000 stone steps (and a sneaky scramble under a railing), the trek to the top of moon hill is no easy feat, especially in the humidity of summer, but the view from the top of this natural phenomenon is well worth the walk. Situated in Yangshuo, moon hill has been long noted for its imposing beauty. Have a chat to the local women selling water whilst you are there!

Incredible bridges in zhejiang
#mountainview After encountering several reposts of drone shots of the Ruyi bridge on IG, I found out that Unitravel, a travel agency based in Hangzhou, was offering trips to to Shenxianju scenic spot. A bunch of friends and I signed up and we were not disappointed at all!
We chose to take the cable car and only walked a bit to find escalators taking us further up. That was something none of us have seen before, definitely not on a mountain! We spotted a nice area with chairs and tables, surrounded by a few shops, where we sat and had our own packed lunches. We crossed two bridges before finally spotting the Ruyi bridge. I went to several glass bridges before and that one was indeed, the most impressive. While following the pathway, you’ll come across shops selling beverages and snacks. Fresh air & mountain views, a great combo for a getaway from the city!
We walked in the sun for hours and were too exhausted to descend on foot. We chose to take the cable car again. There was a massive queue and we had to wait for an hour.

Famed mountain of Lin’an
#mountainview Popular mountain spot of Lin’an county, DamingShan promises gorgeous views, fresh air and a sound of peace. After the entrance,buses drive you up to the hiking trail. You won’t really hike as there are stairs. You’ll come across caves and cross rope bridges. There are some beverage and snack kiosks at the top, but I’d recommend bringing your own lunch.
If you’re an adrenaline junkie, take the slide all the way down! It’s such a thrill!
P.S: There’s an entrance fee, but I went in April 2020 when access was free. During that time, local authorities were trying to revive inland tourism by offering access to several attractions in Hangzhou city and its surrounding counties free of charge.#mountains#mountaintop#mountainair#mountainescape#mountaingetaway#zhejiang#linan#hiketrip
