The first day (September 15) Beijing---Taiyuan (planned 480 kilometers, 5 hours and 40 minutes)
08:12 Depart from home, take Lianshi Road and enter Jingshi (G4), Shitai (S9902 to G5);
Most of the expressways in Hebei (G4 and S9902) have a speed limit of 120 km/h, which is reduced to 100 km/h after passing the Xibaipo exit (about 300 km). After entering Shanxi, the speed limit is more complicated, most of which are 100 km/h, and after the Taiyuan North service area, it is changed to 120 km/h.
On the way, it passes Zhuozhou service area (CNPC), Xushui service area (CNPC), Dingzhou service area (CNOOC), Zhengding service area (Sinopec), Yuxian service area (self-operated), Taiyuan North service area (CNPC).
14:32 Arrive at Taiyuan Causeway Bay Plaza Yitel (book in advance on Ctrip)
Because I took the wrong road for a short distance when leaving Beijing, I actually traveled 488.5 kilometers, which lasted 6 hours and 20 minutes (stopping at the service area twice on the way).
One thing that needs to be said about Taiyuan is the hotel, and the other is the food.
Causeway Bay Plaza Yitel is located at the northeast corner of the intersection (some maps are wrong!), the parking lot is located at the rear right (northeast corner) of the hotel (the brown building in the middle of the photo), and it is difficult to find. It stands to reason: drive east to west and turn right, but you can't turn right at the intersection, and you can't see it. You need to go around the hotel a whole circle, and you can't find it if you are not careful (pay attention to the sign).
The internal facilities of the hotel are average, and there is no towel bar in the bathroom. The good location is the main reason for choosing it.
Go south at the intersection where Yitel Hotel is located and directly enter Liuxiang. Liuxiang is the oldest and most prosperous commercial street in Taiyuan, and it is estimated to be the busiest place in Taiyuan.
Not far to the west of Yitel Hotel is the provincial government. Opposite the provincial government (south of the road) is the so-called Jiefang Road Food Street (it is not on Jiefang Road), but it is a bit difficult to find it from here, because it cannot be seen directly from the road. The archway blocks it, and you can see it through the archway. I think it should be called Food Street.
As for the food, that's it!
The next day (September 16) Taiyuan---Xi'an (planned 618 kilometers, 7 hours and 30 minutes)
Depart from Yitel Hotel at 07:05, first find a Sinopec gas station to refuel, then take the expressway around the city, and then turn to G5.
Both the Ring Expressway and the G5 speed limit are 120 km/h. In the Lingshi service area, there are 10 kilometers in front, 15 kilometers to 10 kilometers behind, and the speed is measured (the speed limit is 80 kilometers per hour), and then it is restored to 100 kilometers per hour, and it is not long before the speed limit becomes 120 kilometers per hour.
On the way, pass Qingxu service area (Sinopec), Pingyao service area (Sinopec), Lingshi service area (Sinopec), Linfen service area (Sinopec), Xiangfen service area (Sinopec), Chengcheng service area (PetroChina), Fuping service area area (extended oil).
14:45 Arrive at Xi'an Big Wild Goose Pagoda Yitel Hotel (book in advance on Ctrip)
The actual driving was 620.3 kilometers that day, which lasted 7 hours and 40 minutes (stopping at the service area five times on the way).
I chose this hotel because it is close to the expressway and convenient for transit; the second is that the hotel is close to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and Tang Paradise, so I have time to go shopping in the afternoon. Later, I chose to go to Huimin Street to eat! In the evening, we walked around the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Cultural Square, because the hotel is too close to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
The most attractive of course is Muslim Street! As soon as the afternoon arrives, put down your bags and take the bus to Huimin Street. It's just that the public transportation in Xi'an is not smooth, but it is much faster than self-driving!
It's only here that I know my stomach is too small!
In the evening, back to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda Cultural and Leisure Plaza near the hotel, it is also very lively, especially the musical fountain needs to book tickets in advance.
The third day (September 17) Xining---Langzhong Ancient City---Guangyuan (planned 618 kilometers, 7 hours and 30 minutes)
Depart from Yitel Hotel at 07:10, take the Lianhuo Expressway and cross the Qinling Mountains.
Overall the road condition is good. It's just that bridges connect holes, holes connect bridges, and there are basically no flat roads. The speed limit is 80 in front of the Yangxian service area and 100 thereafter.
On the way, it passes through Ningshan service area (Yanchang Petroleum), Yangxian service area (Yanchang Petroleum), Mianxian service area (Sinopec), and Ningqiang service area (Sinopec).
15:08 Arrive at Langzhong Ancient City
The actual driving was 560.7 kilometers, which lasted 8 hours (stopped at the service area 3 times on the way).
On the way, it started to rain as soon as we passed Hanzhong. Fortunately, when we arrived in Langzhong, we stopped.
The gate is pressed by the overpass, what do you think? The customer service center is outside the gate.
The ancient city of Langzhong has a history of more than 2,300 years since its establishment. It is one of the four ancient cities in China (the other three are Lijiang in Yunnan, Pingyao in Shanxi, and Shexian in Anhui). It has been an important military town in Ba and Shu since ancient times. The folk houses in the ancient city of Langzhong have a unique style, a chessboard pattern, and buildings that integrate the styles of the north and the south, which is a typical example of the "unity of man and nature" in ancient Chinese cities.
Among them: Han Huan Hou Temple, commonly known as Zhang Fei Temple, has a history of more than 1,700 years since it was first built. The current Huanhou Temple is a quadrangle courtyard-style ancient building complex rebuilt in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is magnificent in scale and exquisite in construction.
Gongyuan, the ancient city of Langzhong, Sichuan Gongyuan in the Qing Dynasty is a well-preserved architectural relic of the Gongyuan in the country, and it is the largest imperial examination cultural museum in the country. There is a rolling shed-style corridor with a total length of more than 50 meters in length and width. It has been well protected so far. It is one of the only two test sheds in the country.
Huaguang Tower, also known as South Tower and Zhenjiang Tower, was first built in the Tang Dynasty. The current Huaguang Tower was rebuilt during the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty. It is a landmark building in the ancient city of Langzhong. Ascending the tower, you can see "the river on three sides embraces the city outline, and the mountains around you enclose the haze".
Zhongtian Tower, also known as Four Pailou, has the reputation of "the first Fengshui building in Langzhong". Built in the Tang Dynasty, it is a three-story Ming and Qing style wooden building. Zhongtian Tower is the geomantic coordinates and acupoints of the ancient city of Langzhong. The streets of the ancient city take it as the axis, unfolding sequentially in all directions in the form of "Ten Hearts of Heaven". The top floor has a wide view, and you can have a panoramic view of the Fengshui pattern of the ancient city.
North Sichuan Road Office is located on Xuedao Street in Langzhong, an ancient Fengshui city. It is commonly known as Daotai Yamen and was first built in 1371. In the early Qing Dynasty, Sichuan governors, chief envoys, and press envoys were stationed in Baoning, so Langzhong served as the provincial capital of Sichuan for more than ten years; it was not until the 18th year of Qianlong that it was customized as "Northern Sichuan branch patrolling and preparing roads" , there are 25 prefectures and counties under its jurisdiction. In this way, the North Sichuan Road Department has been stationed in Langzhong for 542 years... Such a long-standing Taoist Department can stay in this geomantic omen for more than 500 years. Naturally, it is excellent Feng Shui also has to be mentioned.
As the first stop of this tour, the ancient city of Langzhong is very rare. The historical and cultural accumulation is profound, and the characteristic buildings are well protected, which is really rare! Due to time constraints, I didn't have time to go to the Jiangnan part, so let's save it for the next time.
I found two specialties in Langzhong, one is Zhang Fei beef and the other is vinegar.
In addition, apart from having a car to come to Langzhong, there is no need to think too much about other things. Because there is food and accommodation here, and the hotel conditions are good and not expensive. It should be said that it is especially suitable for leisure and vacation.
Since I booked a hotel in Guangyuan, I had to drive for nearly 2 hours, so I had to leave Langzhong Ancient City at 17:25.
Arrive at Guangyuan International Hotel at 19:15 (book in advance on Ctrip)
A total of 696.2 kilometers were driven that day, which lasted 8 hours (stopping at the service area once on the way).
This hotel is generally good, there is Wanda Plaza nearby.
The fourth day (September 18) Guangyuan --- Sanxingdui --- Panda Base --- Chengdu (planned 328 kilometers, 5 hours)
08:08 departure from the hotel, the sky has started to rain.
On the way, we pass Xin'an Service Area (CNPC).
12:20 Arrive at Sanxingdui Museum
The Sanxingdui site is the ancient Shu cultural site with the largest scope, the longest duration and the richest cultural connotation discovered so far in Southwest China. The Sanxingdui Museum is located in the northeast corner of the site. It collects and displays more than a thousand precious cultural relics unearthed from the Sanxingdui site, including bronzes, jade, gold, pottery, and bone.
Because the rain was getting heavier and heavier, I didn't go to the Sanxingdui ruins, but only went to the museum.
3:15 Leave from Sanxingdui Museum
Sanxingdui Museum tickets are 80 yuan, soldiers (including retired) are free, and parking fees are 5 yuan.
Due to the continuous rain, it is estimated that the pandas will not come out. We canceled our plan to go to the panda base and went back to the hotel directly.
16:45 Arrive at Chengdu Tianchenlou Hotel
The actual driving was 312 kilometers, which lasted 5 hours and 40 minutes (stopping at the service area once on the way).
Tianchenlou Hotel is an old Samsung hotel, with two buildings at the front and back. The front building faces the street, which is not very eye-catching, but the back is okay. The hotel is quite satisfactory, the price is slightly higher, the free breakfast is also good, and there are some exclusive free parking spaces in the underground parking lot. It is especially convenient for tourists, such as: Du Fu Thatched Cottage is not far away, and you can walk there. There are two buses at the gate (up to one reverse) that can reach almost all scenic spots in the city.
Above is the restaurant of the hotel. In the evening, I braved the light rain to go to Kuanzhai Alley.
It is natural to eat here, but the style of Kuanzhai Alley is relatively "big food".
The fifth day (September 19) Chengdu—Huanglongxi—Sansheng Flower Township—Chengdu (planned 100 kilometers, 2.5 hours)
08:50 starting from the hotel, the sky has not started to rain.
10:05 Arrive at the scenic spot (52.5 kilometers, 1 hour and 15 minutes)
Before entering the scenic spot, there are many people in the private parking lot working on the side of the road. Don't worry about it, just go straight to the special parking lot in the scenic spot. The parking fee is 10 yuan, and the entrance of the scenic spot is the closest in the D area.
Huanglongxi Ancient Town has a history of more than 1700 years. In the town, there are Qingshiban ancient streets in Ming and Qing Dynasties, which are integrated with ancient archways, ancient temples, ancient buildings and dwellings.
The ancient town is located at the confluence of two rivers and has the flavor of a "water town". In the picture below: the water from the left is clear, the water from the opposite side is turbid, and the two waters merge and flow to the right.
A stream passes through the city, and the two banks are paved with bluestone. On both sides of the road are mostly Ming and Qing buildings, built by the water, with wooden pillars and blue tile pavilions, exquisitely carved railings, quiet and simple. Nowadays, the ancient town is the filming location of many film and television dramas, and many recent film and television films such as the movie "Furong Town" and the TV series "Sea Lantern Master" have been filmed here. There are three ancient temples on the main street, namely Zhenjiang Temple, Chaoyin Temple and Gulong Temple. In the Gulong Temple, there are thousands of years old Jue tree and a stage from the Qing Dynasty.
In addition, there is a strange "Three Counties Yamen". Because Huanglongxi Town is located at the junction of the three counties in history, it is known as "three counties with one foot", so the three counties set up this institution here.
In general, Huanglongxi Ancient Town is a good scenic spot, suitable for leisurely visits.
14:30 Leave the scenic spot
I went to Sansheng Huaxiang on the way, very disappointed! It's just that there are several restaurants with some characteristics in a green area beside the city, connected by an unmarked and narrow road, that's all!
Back to the hotel at 15:10 (120.3 kilometers accumulated on the day)
According to the plan, I will go to Jinli in the near future, and I will visit Du Fu Thatched Cottage and Qingyang Palace on the way.
Du Fu Thatched Cottage, tickets are 60 yuan, and retired soldiers are unavoidable.
The former residence of the famous Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu when he lived in Chengdu. Du Fu lived here for nearly four years and wrote hundreds of poems. Therefore, this place is regarded as the "sacred place" in the history of Chinese literature. Today's Du Fu Thatched Cottage was restored many times in Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. The thatched cottage is located by the Huanhua River outside the west gate of Chengdu. There are many pavilions and towering ancient trees in the garden. After entering from the main entrance, the three main buildings of Daxie, Shishi Hall and Gongbu Temple are arranged on the central axis from south to north. To the northeast of Gongbu Temple is the Shaoling Stele Pavilion and the former residence of the great poet. To the east of the thatched house is the bonsai garden, and to the south are Huanhua Temple, Huajing, Daya Hall and the thatched showroom near the south gate. The iconic landscape - the former residence of the thatched cottage was rebuilt by referring to the characteristics of the folk houses in western Sichuan, and became the iconic landscape of Du Fu Thatched Cottage. In the bonsai garden on the east side of the hut, there is the "Du Poetry Calligraphy Woodcut Gallery" built in 1999, displaying more than a hundred pieces of Du Poem calligraphy woodcut works, including "Du's poems are sung, calligraphy is excellent, nanmu is excellent, and carving is unique". Wait for four.
Qingyang Palace, 10 yuan ticket, free for retired soldiers
Qingyang Palace is currently the oldest and largest Taoist temple in Chengdu. Today's Qingyang Palace was built during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. According to legend, Qingyang Palace was first built in the Zhou Dynasty, and it was first named "Qingyangsi". It is said that it is directly connected with the Taoist ancestor Laozi. According to research, it was named "Qingyang Temple" in the Three Kingdoms period. It was renamed "Xuanzhong Temple" in the Tang Dynasty, "Qingyang Temple" in the Five Dynasties, and "Qingyang Palace" in the Song Dynasty. Zhang Penghe, the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, presented a one-horned bronze sheep to the Qingyang Palace during Yongzheng, which was passed down as a god. The important buildings of Qingyang Palace include "Lingzu Hall, Qiankun Hall, Bagua Pavilion, Sanqing Hall, Doulu Hall, and Tang Wang Hall.
Jinli, a well-known pedestrian commercial street in Chengdu, is composed of a large area of antique buildings in the architectural style of the late Qing Dynasty. It has a large number of bars and famous restaurants. It is the oldest and most commercial street in the history of Xishu.
The famous Wuhou Temple is separated from Jinli by a wall, and there are many entrances and exits. There is also the cemetery of Liu Xiang, a famous general of the Sichuan Army.
Jinli is filled with the hustle and bustle and casualness unique to Chengdu. Both sides of the street sell items with local characteristics, such as handmade leather bags, colorful cloth lanterns, etc. There are also many old Chengdu craftsmen who are busy blowing sugar paintings and kneading dough. All kinds of delicacies will definitely make you salivate, Zhang Fei beef, bean curd, beef coke cake, Bobo chicken, each with its own flavor.
Day 6 (September 20) Chengdu City Tour
Due to the restrictions on driving, we arranged to go shopping in Chengdu today. Today's destinations are: Yongling Mausoleum, Wenshu Monastery, Zhaojue Temple and Chunxi Road.
Depart from the hotel at 8:30 and take the bus to Yongling for 30 minutes. We arrived at the back door of Yongling Mausoleum, the front door is on the side of the road, the ticket office is very small, behind the bus station, very inconspicuous. Yongling only charges 20 yuan for the underground palace, half price for retired soldiers.
Yongling Mausoleum is the only imperial tomb built on the ground in China that has been discovered so far. It has been built for thousands of years.
Whether it is the stone statue of Wang Jian in the Yongling Underground Palace, or the stone carvings of twenty-four musicians and relief sculptures of twelve coffin-supporting wrestlers around his coffin bed, they are all masterpieces. The Yongling Museum houses many exquisite cultural relics from the Five Dynasties period.
Wang Jian's tomb was once stolen, but the mausoleum architecture and exquisite stone carvings that could not be stolen can still be regarded as the flower of mausoleum art. The tomb seal is 15 meters high, 80 meters in diameter, and 225 meters in circumference. It is more imposing than Liu Bei's "Hui Ling".
There are 14 double stone coupons in the tomb, divided into front, middle and back rooms, with a total length of 23.6 meters. The inner and outer coffins of Wang Jian are placed in the middle room, and patterns are engraved on the east, south, and west sides of the coffin bed. In the pattern, there are statues of twelve warriors, who are supporting the coffin seat. The 24 maiko reliefs on the east, south and west sides of the coffin are dancing in different postures, which are rare art treasures of the Tang Dynasty.
At 10:00, leave Yongling after visiting for about an hour, and take a bus for 10 minutes to Wenshu Monastery (no admission fee).
Wenshu Monastery was first built in the Sui Dynasty, and it was called Wenshu Monastery after it was rebuilt during the Kangxi period. More than 300 Buddha statues of various sizes are enshrined in the courtyard, which are made of steel, yarn, wood carving, stone carving, clay sculpture and other materials. Among them is a Burmese jade Buddha, which comes from Myanmar and is extremely precious.
The five main halls in the temple are connected in sequence, including the Hall of Heavenly Kings, the Hall of Three Great Scholars, the Hall of Great Heroes, the Hall of Falun Dafa, and the Library of Sutras. They are integrated with the bell towers, Zhaitang, and corridors on the east and west sides. Together with other buildings, they form a closed Siheyuan. In addition, there are many treasures of calligraphy and painting since the Ming and Qing Dynasties in the temple, the most famous ones are the "Konglin" plaque bestowed by Emperor Kangxi on Wenshu Temple in 1702, and the banner "Sea Moon" written by Mi Fu, a calligrapher of the Song Dynasty. There are also Buddhist cultural relics such as the parietal bone of Master Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty, the Indian Bayeux Sutra, and the Japanese gilded sutra slips of the Tang Dynasty.
11:30 After visiting for about 1 hour and 20 minutes, I left and took the bus to go to Zhaojue Temple (no admission fee).
According to Gaode's navigation, we got off at the zoo station and planned to walk from here to the west gate of Zhaojue Temple. Or maybe the zoo walls moved outwards? This is already the gate of the zoo, there is no other way. After inquiring, I found out that it takes only 5 minutes to walk from the zoo to Zhaojue Temple, and it takes 20 minutes to walk around from the outside. No way, buy a ticket (20 yuan/piece) and walk from inside. The real thing is to buy road money!
Now that you're in, let's look around. Look at monkeys, pandas, orangutans...
13:10 After visiting for about 60 minutes, leave and enter the west gate of Zhaojue Temple (no admission fee).
Don't underestimate this big tree! This is an ancient tree with a history of thousands of years. There is a stone tablet wrapped in the trunk, which is called "Tianfu Tree King".
14:05 After visiting for about 60 minutes, I left and took the bus to Chunxi Road.
Drive for about half an hour and arrive at Chunxi Road at 14:40.
Chunxi Road is the fashion center of Chengdu, as well as a gathering place for local delicacies and beauties. Visiting this most representative commercial pedestrian street in Chengdu, eating and seeing beautiful women is a must-do when you come to Chengdu.
Chunxi Road is not just a street, but refers to the east of Beixin Street, the south of Zongfu Road, the west of Hongxing Road, the north of Dongdajie, Nanxin Street, Zhongxin Street and their frontage areas. When foreigners come to Chengdu, if they don’t visit Chunxi Road, it’s like going to Beijing and not going to Wangfujing, or going to Shanghai and not going to Nanjing Road, it will be very regrettable.
On both sides of Chunxi Road, there are century-old stores, fashion shopping malls, brand stores, and delicious snack bars. Zhongshui Dumplings, Lai Tangyuan, Korean Baozi, Long Chaoshou and other famous foods have branches on Chunxi Road.
7:45 Take the bus back to the hotel.
The seventh day (September 21) Chengdu--Bipenggou--Li County (planned 234 kilometers, 4 hours and 15 minutes)
Bipenggou (ticket 80 yuan, free for retired soldiers) is located in Sologou, Putou Township, Li County, Aba Prefecture, behind the famous Siguniang Mountain. It is famous for its beautiful natural scenery and perfect natural ecological landscape. Glaciers, snow-capped mountains, and meadows are the main areas, and it is also a well-known holy place for viewing red leaves in China. The best time to visit Bipenggou is in mid to late October.
There are three tourist centers (or ride-on points) in the scenic area, and the tourist center is at the gate of the lowest scenic area. There are two reception centers at the top, namely Shanghai Sub Reception Center and Panyang Lake Reception Center.
That is to say: the scenic road is divided into three sections, the first section is about 26 kilometers, you must take the scenic bus (ticket 65 yuan, sold together with the ticket), and will stop on the way to arrange tourists to take pictures.
The second section and the third section are basically the same length, about 4.5 kilometers each. There are battery cars to choose from in these two sections, or you can choose to hike. Tickets for the two sections are sold separately, there is no joint ticket. The price is the same, 20 yuan for a one-way trip and 30 yuan for a round trip.
Actual experience: Since the highest altitude reaches 3,900 meters, in order to save physical strength, it is better to go up and down by car.
Depart from the hotel at 8:00, connect with the Ring Expressway to Guan Expressway, and then transfer to Duwen Expressway.
At 9:45, I met the first service area - Mianzhu (si) service area. For the first time, I felt the sky was high and the clouds were clear, and I suddenly became enlightened. I have been fighting against the rain for a few days, and I was very unhappy. I just got better when I left Chengdu. .
I arrived in Wenchuan not long after I left the Mianzhu service area, reminding me of the past!
At about 12:00 noon, we finally arrived at Bipenggou Scenic Area. Park your private car in the parking lot according to the regulations of the scenic spot, buy a ticket and transfer to a bus to enter the scenic spot.
After waiting for a while, there were some passengers in the car, and the car started. After about 30 minutes of driving, the car stopped. I thought something happened, but I heard the driver say: You can take pictures here. So all the people in the car got off at once.
It is indeed a beautiful place!
After more than 10 minutes, the car started again. Arrive at the first transfer area at about 13:30, which is also the first scenic spot.
Note: There are two stations in the transfer area. One getting off the station and one getting on the station, the two stations are tens of meters apart and not together.
Passengers of the bus go to the scenic spot after getting off at the station. After the tour, they go to the reception center of the station to buy tickets and start the next journey.
The first section of the battery car arrives at the Panyang Lake Scenic Area.
Walk along a dedicated road leading to the Moon Bay Service Hall in the Panyang Lake Scenic Area and walk up tens of meters, and you will arrive at the Moon Bay Service Hall. The last battery ticket is sold here.
Leaving the scenic spot at 18:00, the parking fee is 15 yuan.
The following are a group of scenic photos, beautiful!
18:35 Arrive at the hotel in Li County (accumulated 2470 kilometers).
What needs to be reminded is that the road from Bipenggou to Lixian is under construction, and the speed limit varies from 30, 40, and 70, which is very complicated, and there is always a speed measurement. After I got home, I found out that I was speeding 20-50% here, and was fined 200 and deducted 6 points. What a shame! .
A total of 232.7 kilometers were driven throughout the day.
In the evening, I went shopping in Li County. The county town is very small and surrounded by mountains. The restaurants close at 19:00.
Day 8 (September 22nd) Tour Dujiangyan (293 kilometers)
Depart from the hotel at 8:00 and return to Chengdu, the destination - Dujiangyan.

Leaving the scenic spot at 17:40, the parking fee is 10 yuan.
Arrive at the hotel at 18:45 (a total of 2763 kilometers).
The road was pitted by the navigation, and it took us to make a big circle from the back mountain back to the front mountain.
Day 9 (September 23) Visit Bifeng Gorge (197 kilometers)
Departed from the hotel at 8:09, and took a few photos at the gate of Qingcheng Mountain before departure. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, I couldn't go in for a stroll.

The main purpose is to take the most beautiful expressway in China-Yaxi Expressway. By the way, go to Qionghai to have a look.
Unfortunately, today is a rainy day.
It is cloudy and sometimes rainy and sometimes sunny along the way. It feels like being in the clouds and fog, which is a special feeling. Looking at the photos is much worse than the actual feeling.
All photos are taken in motion and some things are distorted.
13:10 Arrive at Xichang toll station (accumulated 3256 kilometers).
Arrived at the hotel at 13:38 (accumulated 3269 kilometers).
This is a unique hotel. There are no doors in the toilet or bathroom! The sink is in the middle, and behind it is the balcony.

Qionghai is a beautiful place.
Too long, write here first.
The next ten days will be Emei Mountain, Shunan Bamboo Sea, Wulong, Chongqing, Laojun Mountain, etc. If you are interested, please see the next episode.
