Looking for the mountains in Dongyang

 So, this morning looked like a nice time to see the mountains. We are just getting into the hot weather again so I need to be prepared for the skin to be roasted. Shelter from the sun is more welcome than shelter from the rain!

A pagoda and a chill out  area

    We noticed that this pagoda kind of appeared from nowhere. It was pretty nice as one could walk up to the top and see out to the whole of Dongyang.

                                              

                                             These places are a Godsend when the heat arrives


Where is the entrance?


nearly there

There is some view from the top of one of these buildings. You are able to see the reservoir as well as the new high speed railway tracks and the new apartment blocks.
   
The reservoir looking out to Dongyang (东阳) itself


Looks a bit like 4 swimming pools put together
 (or maybe fish farms)


One can see the stumps of the railways.
Just getting ready for the new stage of the high speed railway line

View from the top of the tower
Safety first!

Water , water everywhere


I need a boat

..... and a new pair of feet to combat the stairs


I was able to get an on the ground view of the railway line as I cycled down the road. I also observed a few farms and quite a few people working in the fields. Nice.
Give it 2 years and it should be done.


Getting rid of the rubbish while working can be a tricky thing


A Massey Ferguson?


I wonder what that hut is used for?

I was going to wash my feet here but thought better of it and aimed for a mountain spring.


This is more like it.
