Most people who come here to play may walk directly into the depths of the park along the wooden ladder, and rarely notice that there is an ancient village at the entrance, which is also beautiful and has a long history.
This village, with its back to the green hills, seems to be located halfway up the mountain and is called Upper ban shan cun.
The weather was not very good when I came here to play, and then it rained and the sky was gloomy, but the ancient village still gave people a quiet beauty.
Upper ban shan cun is located behind the tourist service area of Zhongposhan Park, with green hills behind the village and valleys in front of the village, and Zhongposhan Forest Park at the bottom.
The road to the village is a ramp, next to a simple wooden pavilion, next to which is a canteen with a sense of the times.
This is the turning point of Zhuangding tourist highway, from which you can reach Guanding Lake, another punching place for network celebrities in Haishu District.
You can walk into ban shan cun from the cement road behind the exhibition hall.
Ban shan cun, facing south, is small and quiet.
There is a fork in the road, and the old tree comes in from the right.
There are more than 10 ancient trees here, including Liquidambar formosana and Cinnamomum camphora, most of which are over 400 years old.
The history of building villages in Upper ban shan cun is not recorded in detail, but judging from the age of ancient trees, it is at least 400 years old.
The houses in the ancient village are patchwork, some are slightly mottled, but there is a vicissitudes.
Most of the villagers living in the village are old people, and they still adhere to the traditional way of life. At noon, smoke will rise in the village, making the village full of smoke.
The ancient trees in the village stand on the roadside of the village, and the dense branches and leaves extend obliquely to the opposite side of the tree, hiding the old house under the tree, making the village more quiet and leisurely.
There is a stone bench under the tree, and villagers can sit under the tree and chat to kill their leisure time.
There are stone steps under the old tree, and there is a temple called Hometown Temple.
Shangsi, also known as Guanding Temple, enjoys a high reputation in Longguan Township.
According to legend, Shangsi Temple in my hometown was built in the Tang Dynasty, and the existing temples were rebuilt later. The temple is a Chinese-style courtyard with yellow walls and tiles, and the gate is cornices, which is full of ancient meaning.
As a mountain village, Upper ban shan cun is bound to communicate with the outside world through mountain roads, which have been abandoned and now become ancient roads.

Dasongwan Ancient Road is rated as one of the top ten ancient roads in Ningbo, and it is also one of the favorite hiking routes for hikers.

Although Upper ban shan cun is small in scale, due to its unique geographical location, it has become a tourist relay station: living in the village, you can swim in Zhongposhan Forest Park within a few steps, or you can hike the Dasongwan ancient road; Go northwest along the mountain road, not far from Zhuangding tourist highway and Guanding Lake, and you can camp or watch the sunrise.
