ZhiZhuLin Temple | 紫竹林寺

闽南佛学院分设男众部和女众部，男众部设在南普陀寺内，女众部设在景色秀丽的金榜山紫竹林寺，始建于明朝万历年间。

ZhiZhuLin Temple, which was built since the Wanli years of Ming dynasty, Minnan buddhist college female ministry is located here. Alex was punished for 20 push-ups since he left to "LA BABA" on the trail. :-)

Ming Qing ancient path | 明清古道

明清古道，距今190多年，这里就是厦门岛上的“茶马古道”，路面以原始的土路石头路为主，发现城市的美，就从你最熟悉的地方开始。

Ming Qing ancient path, have a history of 190 years from now, most are original dirt and stone road, try to discover the beauty of the city from the places that you know best.

Bike Road | 越野自行车道

越野自行车道，很原始的土路，加上之前下雨后的冲刷，路面沙子较多，不小心重心不稳容易滑，这段整个队伍大概花了1个小时才到小山顶；由于是直上的一个长坡，对于不常运动的人来说，有点难度，需要消耗较大的能量。切记！早上出门运动，务必记得吃早餐，不然很容易低血糖。

It took almost 1 hour to reach top of the first small moutain, this part will be kinda tough for sedentary people since it is a long slope with sand dirt road. Bear in mind! Do have breatfast if you go hiking in the morning or you will suffer from hypoglycemia.

小山顶之后，一段下坡土路，需控制好重心，沙子路面容易滑，我们又见到了藏匿在山上的哆啦A梦！: -)

Downhill after the first peek of the small mountain.

Banlinggong | 半岭宫

半岭宫庙下来的一段台阶路，一直到怪坡，整条台阶路都有经幡装扮，感觉很好，也很漂亮。

Steps road decorated prayer flags all the way down from Banlinggong temple, way beautiful.

Meihailing | 梅海岭

半岭宫下到怪坡再走到梅海岭经过部队再到东坪山社的一段路，在梅海岭有短暂休息10分钟

Path from Meihailing to force area and then Dongpingshan village, we had a 10 mins break at Meihailing.

Sightseeing Platform  | 观景平台

东坪山社到观景平台的一段路

Path from Dongpingshan village to Dongpingshan Sightseeing Platform.

Downhill | 下坡

从观景平台下坡到滚蛋谷，这段稍陡，稍微有点难走

Down from Dongpingshan Sightseeing Platform to Gundan valley.

Gundan Valley | 滚蛋谷

滚蛋谷位于厦门东坪山南麓，由于远古造山运动，山谷堆积了很多很多大的卵状砾岩，貌似巨大的蛋在谷底滚动，因此得名“滚蛋谷”，滚蛋谷不但名字鲜有人知，而且这个地方荒郊野岭，树木茂密，再加上巨大的圆形岩石分布错乱，很容易迷路，不建议单人前往，有很大的危险性。

Gundan valley is located in south of Dong Ping Shan moutain, the valley piles up a lot of big cobblestones due to the ancient orogenic movement, it looks like huge eggs is rolling on the bottom, hence named "Gundan valley", not may people know Gundan valley since this place is a woody and wilderness area, it is very easy to get lost there, DON'T recommend go there alone, huge risk.

It is not an easy trail for some of us today actually but we all made it to the end, u guys are real awesome, thank u guys for coming and support, hope u all enjoyed a great hiking, see you next time.
