Pools and streams in Jinyun
Katherine travels through rural Jinyun in Zhejiang province during hot summer weather, looking for places to cool off. She passes lush tea fields and bamboo-covered mountains and discovers a local convenience store on a mountain, where she can stop for cold drinks. The walk leads her to natural pools and streams. One pool becomes a favorite because it offers a quiet place to swim away from the busier roads and warmer parts of the day.
While Katherine is in the water, fish nibble at her feet, giving her an experience she compares to a fish spa. Her friend Asaon practices swimming in one of the pools. The video shows the experience as a simple outdoor swim rather than a developed resort: visitors should pay attention to the natural terrain and rocks around the water. Katherine shares the small discoveries along the route, including how a convenience store can appear in an unexpected mountain location.
A reservoir at the end of the outing
The trip continues to a reservoir with clear water and a view across the surrounding landscape.

The reservoir gives the outing a different setting from the smaller pools and offers space to pause before heading back.
