Located in Baofu town, Anji county, Huzhou, Zhejiang province, the Yufeng Tongluo Mountain Flying Camp stands at 680 meters above sea level amid verdant mountains, bamboo forests, and a tranquil reservoir.

On the grassy expanse, paragliders take flight, carrying both instructors and thrill-seekers toward the distant hills and lakes. The colorful paragliders hover beneath the clouds, drawing gasps of awe from onlookers eagerly recording the spectacle with their phones.
