Shanghai - Guiyang
The travel of office workers is in a hurry, and the Mid-Autumn Festival plus 6 days of rest, the long-awaited trip to Guizhou is a typical check-in trip nowadays. Get off work at 6:00 in the evening, take the subway to Pudong Airport and fly to Guiyang, FM9459 | 21:35—00:25
Traveling this year feels like I have been cursed. Whether it is a business trip or a trip, it is either canceled or delayed, which makes me lose my temper. The night flight is most afraid of being delayed, and it turned out to be 1 hour late, arriving in Guiyang at 1:30 am the next day, and the hotel turned into an hourly room for one night.

Guiyang - Anshun - Guiyang
Anshun Huangguoshu Scenic Spot Day Tour. Get up at 5:40 in the morning, arrive at the boarding point on Baba Street at 6:40, and start at 7:00, the journey takes about 2 and a half hours.
Tips: I bought a round-trip bus from Guiyang to Anshun Huangguoshu Scenic Spot from Ctrip in advance. The round-trip fare is 98 yuan. The supplier of this product is "Jiantu". This kind of line is great, free enough, and don't have to worry about the return traffic time. You can buy a one-way ticket or a round-trip ticket. It is suggested that tickets for Huangguoshu Scenic Spot can be booked on the website in advance, because Langren Xiao has a tour guide certificate, so he can directly enter the scenic spot for sightseeing.
Huangguoshu Waterfall is composed of three independent scenic spots, and the tour sequence is: Doupotang Scenic Spot - Tianxing Bridge Scenic Spot - Great Waterfall Scenic Spot. There are sightseeing buses between three o'clock, and tickets need to be purchased separately.
Tips: It is best to book tickets online in advance, the ticket center will delay some time in queuing up to buy tickets. The closest to the ticket center is Doupotang Waterfall, about 5 minutes walk. The tour time is about 20-30 minutes.
Doupotang Waterfall is a scene in the prologue of the 83 edition of "Journey to the West". Tang Monk, his master and his disciples walked through the waterfall.
Exit from the exit of Doupotang Scenic Area, cross the bridge to the bus stop, and take a bus to Tianxing Bridge Scenic Area for about 15 minutes. The scenery on the road is also beautiful, so I took a photo.
The scenery of Tianxing Bridge Scenic Area is very beautiful, and you don’t have to worry about the time for free travel, so it takes about 2.5 hours to visit it all. Tianxingqiao Scenic Area has my favorite Yinlian Zhuitan Waterfall, but the tour route is behind the store near the exit of the scenic spot, and you will miss it if you don’t pay attention. Influenced by mangosteen, the water flow of Yinlian Waterfall is particularly large. When viewed closely, the sound is really shocking like ten thousand horses galloping. Tianxing Cave is also on this route. There are many similar karst cave scenic spots in Guizhou.
When returning after visiting the Silver Chain Waterfall (the circular tour does not turn back), I chose to take the cableway, overlooking the stream with abundant water flowing through the dense green forest from a high altitude, and the scenery is also very beautiful. In addition, there are many small vendors in the scenic area selling boiled corn, oversized figs, sweet and sour plantains, and boiled potatoes, which are worth tasting.
It takes about 20 minutes to drive from Tianxing Bridge to the Great Falls. The Great Falls Scenic Area is to see the Great Falls. The place where the photo is taken is crowded and concentrated, so the tour time is also longer. Unfortunately, due to the excessive water volume, the scenic spot of Shuilian Cave was temporarily closed, but I saw a double rainbow at the nearest viewing platform, and the waterfall is indeed very spectacular.
The return bus is at 4:30, and all three scenic spots have been visited at about 3:30 in the afternoon. The weather was not very good in the morning, and the clouds in the steep pond were very thick. The one-day tour of Huangguoshu Waterfall in Anshun is a perfect end, and I strongly recommend everyone to come here for a visit.

Guiyang—Libo Big and Small Seven Holes
For Virgos, the holidays are tense, and free travel is a must. On the bus yesterday, I met Wen Jing, sister Xiangxiang, two girls from Hunan, one Shanghai boy Haoye, and six Shanghai aunts. During the driving break, everyone was chatting, and I told everyone about my itinerary in Libo, so everyone, except Haoye who had already booked the itinerary for the next day, decided to come with me. Please allow me to be a little proud :)
Tips: There are three options for transportation. 1-Choose Guiyang to fly to Libo, the earliest arrival time is more than 10 o'clock, and it takes about 1 hour from Libo Airport to Xiaoqikong. 2- Guiyang has a direct shuttle bus to Libo Xiaoqikong Scenic Spot, which costs 140 yuan, and the journey takes about 3.5 hours. Unfortunately, there is no Jiantu that day, but Ctrip costs 299 yuan. The air ticket is discounted, and the machine building is only about 170, so it is an alternative plan . 3- I happened to see a strategy saying that you can take a train from Guiyang to Mawei. From Mawei Station, there is a village minibus to Xiaoqikong Scenic Area, the cost is about 15-20 yuan, and the journey is 36 kilometers, about 40-50 minutes. I checked, Guiyang-Mawei station, there are 5 trains every day, I choose train: K828/5:22-9:46, arrive at Xiaoqikong before 11:00 as expected.
Time reference for other trains: 16:26/16:50/22:23/22:40
So, on the morning of the 22nd, everyone gathered at Guiyang Station. The fun of free travel is that you can't expect what will happen during the journey to test you, and you don't know what kind of people you will meet, and what kind of scenery you will see that will move you. Yes, it's touching, that's right.
However, the train was delayed because of the heavy rain on the last section. At this moment, I am so anxious. On the one hand, my schedule was very tight and I couldn't afford to be delayed; on the other hand, everyone trusted me to go with me. I got up early in the morning, but the train was late. I didn't care about disturbing people's dreams in the early morning of the holiday. I Baidu checked the car rental phone number and the travel agency phone number. I planned to rent a car there.
The little girl (staff) on the platform was really understanding. Seeing that I had inquired twice, she took the initiative to ask the contact desk and told me the current location of the train and the possible arrival time. We ended up getting on the bus at 7:05, 1 hour and 40 minutes late.
As soon as I got on the train, I had a sixth sense, and I said, I think the train will catch up on the way. Haha, I really took my word for it! The train was speeding all the way, and when it arrived at Mawei Station, it was only more than 20 minutes late. God is so awesome, when we got out of the car, everyone was very happy.
When I got out of the station, I was quick to talk, and when I saw the private car driver, I went up to negotiate the price, and Sister Xiao took care of the business, it was all right. The price in the guide was 15 yuan 6 years ago, and I successfully won it. It was not until the road that the little master said that it hadn’t been this price for a long time.
The rented car is Changan Wuling, and there are no good cars for private car business. The little master is twenty-two or three years old. During the chat, he knew that he had just been promoted to a father. He couldn't help but keep saying that his wife's childbirth went well, and he wanted to make more money for the baby in the future, and so on. Suddenly, I couldn't bear it, and regretted my fierce bargaining just now. So when I got out of the car, I silently gave 20 yuan. It was a pleasure chatting with the little master all the way, but the young and honest little master didn't know what the hell "Lala" was.
Mawei belongs to Dushan County. In southern Guizhou, apart from Libo, Dushan is the only one with a good economy. Mawei is an industrial town, so there is a Mawei station. However, the transportation in the mountainous area of Qiannan is inconvenient. Fortunately, there is the Xiaoqikong scenic spot in Libo, so the government built the high-speed rail to Libo (it is not yet completed). There are not a few tourists going to Libo from here in the peak season, so the private car business is acceptable.
After arriving at the scenic spot, the six Shanghai aunts decided to have lunch first, so they separated from us. When we first entered the scenic spot, two girls from Hunan also decided not to go with us because they were not feeling well. Sister Xiangxiang from Shenzhen, Wen Jing from Huizhou and me, three girls from Guangdong.
tips: 130 tickets for the big and small seven holes, 40 yuan for the sightseeing car, and the tickets are valid within 2 days. The second time you enter the park, you need to show your ID card. You enter through the west gate and exit through the east gate, just to go to Daqikong. There is almost no food sold in the scenic area, only at the sightseeing bus transfer station. I thought there was food everywhere like Huangguoshu Scenic Area, but I didn't know that I was too hungry.
Guizhou has beautiful mountains and rivers, and is a world heritage Chinese karst—Xiaoqikong.
Of course, there are also small regrets. Due to the influence of mangosteen, the water volume in the scenic spot is particularly large. The 68-level waterfall can’t see the water at all. The water rushes down rapidly, and the sound is loud when walking along the water. The seven-hole stone bridge was also flooded so that the holes could hardly be seen, and the water quality was not as blue and quiet as the photos.
If the scenery of the small seven holes is exquisite and beautiful, then the big seven holes are dangerous and mysterious. The Tiansheng Bridge is like a bridge but not a bridge. The two cliffs are only connected at the top, like a huge stone gate.
I also like Daqikong Scenic Area very much. Walking into the scenic area and visiting along the plank road under the cliff, the water surface in the first section is very calm, you can take a boat as if in a painting, and the cliffs on both sides are green and lush.
The same regret, the water flow is too big, and there are more than 100 meters away from the Tiansheng Bridge, so I was notified that the scenic spot will be temporarily closed. I was very unwilling, and begged the staff to let me take a few photos nearby. Sure enough, when I retreated, I found that a low section of the plank road that came in had been flooded by water.
There are seven holes in size, I hope to see them in their most beautiful appearance when I come back next time. Just like Daocheng Yading, the first time I went to rain, I went again to make up for the regret. The weather was very good, and I saw almost all the snow mountains on the 318 and 217 Sichuan-Tibet highways.

Maolan/Libo—Thousands of Miao Villages in Xijiang
The trip to Maolan the next day made up for the regret of the big and small seven holes, and it was also the reason why I decided to come again. Because next time, I will make a special trip to Maolan to hike through the virgin forest and the oldest and most primitive karst cave in Guizhou.
The scenic spots in Guizhou require a lot of walking, which is really tiring. The night flight and the morning bus for this trip, and the two days before the departure, the business trip to and from Ganzhou, the extreme lack of sleep, coupled with the hard work, made my head start after noon every day The pain was unbearable. Therefore, even looking for delicious food is a quick fix.
Libo is the best and cheapest place to eat during this trip. In fact, the real gourmet food is never in the food street full of tourists, and it is not necessarily in those online celebrity shops, just in those inconspicuous places at the corners and alleys.
Xianxianglou, the mixed noodles here are simply the best of the noodles, and you can eat them after three or two bites, haha, the aftertaste is endless.
The Sour Soup Beef Offal Restaurant is recommended by the taxi driver. The sour soup is super good, and this restaurant is also a delicacy that must not be missed. The price of eight or nine yuan is really cheap, after all, this is a tourist attraction.
From Libo to Maolan, the best way to visit is to rent a car or drive by yourself. There is a certain distance between each scenic spot in Maolan. The price of renting a car varies. Among the guides I saw before, the cheapest is 200, and the most expensive is 400-500. I was lucky. I chatted with several taxi masters along the way, and the lowest was 350 yuan. When I went back from Libo Food Street On the way, the last master readily agreed with 300 yuan, after all, only half a day. The master is a local, nice and familiar with the road.
Maolan is still in a semi-development state, and tickets for scenic spots are sold, but the equipment is very simple. There is no circuit in the Custer Cave, so you need to bring a headlight. The cave is only partially developed. Although the area to visit is small, it is more beautiful than the Tianxing Cave in Huangguoshu. I have not been to others. This is the reason why I want to come to Maolan again. Here you can walk through one of the oldest caves in Guizhou for 3 hours.
When we arrived at Latan Waterfall, there was a sudden burst of torrential rain. Although we were short of time, we still took a few photos in the rain. Because of the large amount of water, the viewing platform of the waterfall was blocked, and it was impossible to take pictures of its magnificence. In short, Maolan is worth a visit.
It was 1:30 in the afternoon, we rushed back to Libo before we had lunch, and wanted to take the 15:20 shuttle bus from Libo to Qianhu Miao Village in Xijiang.
At that time, Miss Xiangxiang, who was traveling with us today, chose to stay in Libo, and Wen Jing and I went to Qianhu Miao Village in Xijiang.
It takes a long time to go from Qiannan Prefecture to Qiandongnan Prefecture, but the scenery along the road is beautiful, with well-arranged terraced fields, small villages with a sense of history, people in national costumes working in the fields, and mountains in the afterglow of the setting sun.
After a 4-hour drive, they finally arrived at the north gate of the Miao Village, and the two of them had dinner in a hurry. Some small vendors in the parking lot live in the Miao Village Scenic Area. The proprietress of a shop told us that we can bring it in for 30 yuan/person, so the girl who was with me went in with her.
The Miao Village is very lively at night, with many shops and tourists, it is more like a large commercial district. Climbing to the highest viewing platform to see the night view of the entire Miao Village, the lights are a little bit, but it is not particularly brilliant. The prices are inflated comparable to big cities, and the services here are also very utilitarian. It was almost 9 o'clock, and we hadn't found a place to stay. Under the No. 1 corridor bridge, there were many people calling for accommodation. A very kind aunt took us to the inn opened by her. I don't remember the name of the inn, it's just above the public toilet next to the bronze drum show. From the guide, I learned that the sound insulation effect of the wooden houses in Miao Village is very poor, and it is true.
Perhaps, I am more strict because I am engaged in the profession of scenic spot planning. My personal feeling about the Qianhu Miao Village in Xijiang is: when I left, I didn’t know what the real Miao Village looked like. However, it is divided into two, and I have to say that their propaganda is in place and it is worth learning.
The tourists who have been there, the local taxi masters, the masters who run the line... almost all reported that the tourists said they would never come again, it is good for carrying passengers, but the service is not good. These are enough to show that the second replay rate must be extremely low. Bad reputation, not long life. Why did we go to Miao Village? To see the morning smoke rising, to see Agou and Amao basking in the sun lazily on the side of the stone, to see the original singing and dancing of the Miao people, and to see the most traditional silverware craftsmanship of craftsmen, it is definitely not for For shopping, we are here to feel the local culture.

Xijiang - Langde Miao Village - Zhenyuan
I left early the next morning. There is a shuttle bus to Kaili and Libo at the north gate of Miao Village. The journey takes about 1 hour. In order to make up for the regret, I went to Langde Shangzhai again. However, after taking the shuttle bus to Langde Miao Village, I found out that it is actually very close to Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village, and you can go directly from Miao Village without going back to Kaili. I passed by Nanhua and Jidao. These two Miao villages look quite simple. Of course, they are on the side of the main road and develop faster, so the simple elements are naturally less. Langde Shangzhai has now started to charge 60 yuan. Here, I photographed a rooster flapping its wings and flying up to the roof, a happy Miao woman feeding a pig, a river valley shoal where grain is dried, and a young woman who is making Miao embroidery.
There are indeed very few things to see in Langde Shangzhai, and it is not competitive in the surrounding scenic spots, and there are almost no tourists. And the price of 60 yuan has also set the threshold high. Blindly high fees are terrible suicides.
I am more aggressive. When I returned to Kaili from Langde Miao Village, I told Wen Jing, wait, I will stop the car. Haha, directly stopped a private car to the train station, 30 yuan for two people.
Wen Jing went to Guiyang, and I went to Zhenyuan. K476 Kaili 17:37-Zhenyuan 18:51, this day is the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Arrive at Zhenyuan Station, take the bus directly at the square in front of the station, and you will arrive at the ancient city for one yuan, and book accommodation on the way.
Zhenyuan ancient city at night is full of tourists and is very lively. The Wuyang River divides the ancient city into Acropolis and Fucheng. The night view of Zhenyuan is really great. Fucheng at night, on both sides of the Wuyang River, the neon lights are shining with colorful lights, and the water surface of the Wuyang River is colorful. From Qinglong Cave to Xinda Bridge, there are restaurants and bars every day.
September 25
Zhenyuan - Guiyang
In the early morning, climb to the top of Yuping Mountain (tickets: 30 yuan) and look down from a high place. The small town is surrounded by water and mountains. One of the best locations for panoramas. At the foot of the mountain is the quiet and simple Acropolis. Another downhill road of Yuping Mountain, you can directly go down to Sifangjing, Fuxing Lane and Renshou Lane. Walking among them, the old well has left deep marks of hemp rope, moss spreads on the stone foundation of the roadside, creeper Spread out the entire blue brick wall.
Go down to the main street of the ancient city, cross the Zhusheng Bridge to the opposite Fucheng. On the Zhusheng Bridge, there is a three-story pavilion with cornices and upturned feet. The blue stone slabs on the bridge are as bright as new. The ancient stone bridge was first built in the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. It was originally named Wuxi Bridge and was jointly built by Zhenyuan Tusi and Zhenyuan Tuzhizhou. Later, due to the internal vendetta of Tian's chieftain family, the construction of the bridge was abandoned halfway. It was rebuilt during the Wanli period, and it was not completed until the first year of Chongzhen. It took about 250 years. Later, it was worth some repairs. During the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, Wuxi Bridge was renamed Zhusheng Bridge in order to celebrate the birthday of the Holy One, and it is still in use today.
The Qinglong Cave Scenic Spot at the head of the bridge has abrupt rocks, steep and dangerous rocks covered by trees, and unique ancient buildings inlaid in it.
Food is more expensive in Guzhen District, but it is better than Xijiang. Not far from the archway of the ancient town, there is a Fujia Le supermarket on the second floor on the left, turn left to Panlong Street, and then turn right to Minsheng Street, there is a small restaurant called Yanzifen Restaurant, 8 yuan a piece, The taste is also very good.
If you have time, it is strongly recommended to take a boat tour on the Wuyang River. The green hills on both sides of the river recede slowly, just like people walking in a painting.
Train K111 Zhenyuan 14:40 – Guiyang 18:26
In the afternoon, leave Zhenyuan and return to Guiyang. I asked Wen Jing to go to Hongtong City next to Guiyang Station to eat old Kaili fish in sour soup. We two girls ordered Ang stickle fish, the sour soup is very authentic, hot and sour appetizer, the fish is tender and tastes great. This chain restaurant is very famous in Guiyang, and the most authentic one is the old restaurant on Shengfu Road. Before going to the airport the next day, I went to the famous Erqi Road Snack Street next to Hongtong City for dinner.
After dinner, go to Jiaxiu Tower to watch the night view. It's really average, haha... The effect of the shooting is much better than the scene. I stayed at the IU Internet Light Hotel under Platinum at night. This night was redeemed with 4000 Platinum points, which felt very valuable.
September 26
Guiyang - Shanghai
On the last day, I went to Qianling Mountain Park. Take the No. 72 bus next to the hotel where you live, get off at the intersection of Beijing West Road, pass through the vegetable market on a small road, and you will arrive at Qianlingshan Park. There is a steamed stuffed bun shop at Xiaolukou. I saw local diners queuing up, so I bought the most famous big steamed stuffed bun in the shop for 3 yuan each. However, half brown sugar and half pork, the taste is so strange, I can't figure out why it is so popular, haha.
The park ticket is 5 yuan. In order to save time, I took the cableway to the top of the mountain with the tour guide certificate. The weather was raining, and the panorama of Guiyang was very poor.
The monkeys here are really smart. When visiting the park, you must keep your things well, and don't put them in the outer pocket of your backpack or where your pockets can be seen. The monkey will go directly to grab the contents of the bag. Moreover, the IQ of the monkey here is obviously higher than elsewhere: the first time, when I clenched my fist and stretched it out, it opened it and saw that there was nothing inside; the second time, when I did it again, it would not break it at all He opened his hand and slapped my fist with his fleshy hand like a slap in the face, haha, I was shocked.
In the afternoon, I went to Zhucheng Square. There was nothing to see except sculptures. It is a pity that the Provincial Boyne is closed for renovation.
Tips: Guiyang city is not far from the airport, and it is very convenient to call a taxi. Because I have plenty of time, I went to the civil aviation ticket office on Qingyun Road to take the airport bus. When I passed by that day, there was no one working at the ticket office, and there was no airport bus stop sign at the door. I asked the assistant manager at the intersection to confirm that I was taking the bus here. .
