The opening of the Shanghai World Expo and Labour Day gave many of us in Shanghai a glorious 5 day weekend! Mine became 4 after Friday became a factory visit day but still, 4 days is great!
A friend and I joined a hiking/biking trip at Moganshan near Hangzhou. After a few hours in the bus we hiked up Moganshan over old paths straight trough a bamboo forest! The views were amazing and the hike was quite challenging. The next day we biked down the mountain at great speed and than circled a lake, passing tea plantations and more bamboo forest. We even came by a small church that was having their Sunday service.
We biked a total of about 55km that day but it didn't seem that far at all! The area is really beautiful and it was so nice to get out of Shanghai for 2 days and enjoy nature and some fresh air.
