About accommodation:
This time I lived in a cave dwelling compound and experienced a cave dwelling with Shanxi characteristics.
The entire cave dwelling compound is decorated internally on the basis of the original cave dwelling, which retains the original flavor of the cave dwelling and increases the comfort, which is still very good.
About food:
Yunqiu cuisine is mainly based on traditional farm meals, without fancy decorations, and the taste is really good!
This elbow meat is crispy, delicious and delicious.
The fish friends are all so talkative, they will be exhausted soon~~
This cake is not enough for one serving, so I added another one!
Climb to the highest point of Yunqiu, enjoy the beautiful scenery of Yunqiu, and swing on the cliff!
The highest point of Yunqiu Mountain is 1629 meters above sea level, where Yuhuangding is located, and it is also the first destination of this trip. Take the No. 3 cableway called "Yunqiu Necklace" all the way up, and the scenery you can see is very good. The total length of No. 3 cableway is 1314 meters, which also has the meaning of long-term love.
After getting down from the cableway and climbing to the highest point along the rugged mountain road, it took about 40 minutes to arrive at Yuhuangding. It was really tiring, especially for people like me who don’t exercise often, but "the infinite scenery is here Dangerous peak", tired is worth it.
Yuhuangding, built in the Song and Yuan Dynasties, is a three-tiered building. The first floor is the Taoist residence, the second floor is the Hall of Stars and the Wuliang Hall, and the third floor is the Yuhuang Pavilion.
The Hall of Stars is a building on the top of Juanbenghard. The six stars of the South Dipper and the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper are enshrined in the hall. The South Dipper marks life, and the Big Dipper marks death. The Jade Emperor Pavilion is an attic with double eaves and a cross-shaped mountain top built on the Wuliang Hall, surrounded by white marble fences. The Jade Emperor, the sun and the moon gods are enshrined in the pavilion.
Standing on the Yuhuang Pavilion overlooking the surroundings, the mountains are really vast and the scenery is infinite~~~
Leaving from Yuhuangding and heading towards Yuanyang Bridge, it is not easy to go up the mountain, and it is even more difficult to go down the mountain, especially the colorful downhill road in the middle, it is very difficult to walk (I really want to roll all the way down), but after passing It is very fulfilling, just like the road of life, there will always be difficult times, if you keep going, good things will appear!
When I arrived at the Yuanyang Bridge, I was attracted by the cliff swing on the side. Yes, as the name suggests, it is swinging on the edge of the cliff. Sitting on the swing, the body seems to be flying, so close to the sky, let the screams echo in the valley !
Get off the swing. Even though my legs are still weak, I still can't help running like a mandarin duck bridge!
The Mandarin Duck Bridge is 219 meters long, 195 meters high and 2 meters wide. It is currently the longest and highest fully transparent high-altitude glass bridge in Shanxi Province.
Walking on the bridge, there are mountains but not mountains in front of you, and valleys but not valleys under your feet. Walking in mid-air is both real and dreamy.
I happened to meet a pair of little sisters, lively and bold, adding a different kind of scenery to the bridge.
The cliff swing is exciting, the glass bridge is thrilling, and the hang gliding is probably cool. Flying in the air like a bird, the wind whistling in my ears, green trees and green hills rushing behind me, the feeling of freedom is long gone! !
In the thousand-year-old village, visit cave dwellings and appreciate folk customs
Talpo ancient village, the last destination of the first day's itinerary. This is an ancient village with a history of more than 1,500 years. Lao Tzu Li Er once stayed here when he was studying.
The entire ancient village of Talpo, built on the hillside, has more than 60 cave dwellings and about 50 wooden structures, retaining the most primitive style and taste. As soon as you step here, the first thought that comes to you is: this is the ancient village.
There are still traces of the Wu Nuo culture produced and inherited in ancient times.
The traditional dyeing and weaving methods are still preserved. There are no chemical ingredients, and the pigments are derived from nature. For example, using Radix isatidis can dye the color of the sky.
Traditional crafts such as tofu workshops and blacksmith shops can still be seen here.
The first time I saw Huamo, it was really shocking.
Huamo, also known as noodle flower, is named for its fancy shape. Ordinary dough is transformed into various kinds under the skillful hands of craftsmen, and Huamo can be seen in Chinese New Year, festivals, sacrifices and so on.
The flower drum performance of the local villagers did not have the slightest commercial atmosphere or perfunctory formality, but a joy from the heart, presenting the most authentic folk art.
Martial arts, the most powerful treasure in China, I am also amazed to see the majesty of the master's big sword.
Sitting in a bridal sedan chair, riding a little donkey, drinking Yunqiu Mountain health-preserving tea, what a pleasure!
Climb to the gate of heaven to worship the ancestors, play bungee jumping and become a trapeze
The next day's itinerary starts from outside the ancient village of Tarpo, and takes the No. 2 cable car to the Zushiding, the second highest altitude!
The section of the road from the cable car to Zushiding, the scenery is really wonderful, full of green mountains and green.
Zushiding, 1,330 meters above sea level, is connected to Yuhuangding on the top and Tiantianmen on the bottom. There is Fenhe Bend in the front, and Bijia Mountain in the back, surrounded by mountains. Emperor Xuanwu practiced Taoism here. People regard him as the god of peace, honor him as the Patriarch, and build the Patriarch Hall!
The Zushiding building was built in the Song and Yuan Dynasties. It is divided into three stacks. The first floor is the Taoist residence, the second floor is a natural castle of sand and stone, and the top floor is the Patriarch Hall.
To reach the Patriarch Hall, the thirty-five steps symbolize the thirty-six heavens of Taoism, and the last step is the highest Patriarch Hall.
The patriarch's roof is 7.34 meters long, 4.65 meters wide, and 15 meters high. The lower part is the beamless hall with eight trigrams in the Song and Yuan Dynasties, and the upper part is a double-eaved cross-shaped mountain-top building. According to legend, the materials for building the temple came in groups of sheep in the dead of night, and the "god sent the sheep" came from this.
From the top of the patriarch, walk down the mountain, passing through the three-day gate, the two-day gate and the one-day gate. Because we came up by the cableway, the order is reversed. In fact, we should go through the gate of one, two, three days and then reach the top of the patriarch!
The Three-day Gate was first built in the Song and Yuan Dynasties. It is dedicated to Feng Bo, Yu Shi, Lei Gong, and Dian Mu. We are walking in the opposite direction, that is, we are out of the fairyland!
Ertianmen was first built in the Song and Yuan Dynasties and rebuilt in the Guangxu Period. The four heavenly kings are enshrined inside. It was destroyed during the Cultural Revolution and then restored again.
There are giant spirit gods standing on the huge stones on both sides of the gate of Tiantianmen, a pagoda, and one holding a treasure circle. According to local legend, the treasure circle symbolizes clouds, and the pagoda symbolizes hills. When you approach the Tiantian Gate, it means you have entered the Yunqiu fairyland! In the past, woodcutters would collect firewood here, and they would sing to each other to take care of each other, so there was the Tianmen woodcutter singing of Yunqiu Eight Ancient Scenes.
Continue to walk down and you will come to Yulian Cave. Yulian Cave was originally called "Ganhua Cave". In fact, there is no cave, but a cliff with a height of hundreds of meters.
The building of Yulian Cave was first built in the Yuan Dynasty. Changchun real man Qiu Chuji, yes, he is the Qiu Chuji in the Legend of the Condor Heroes. This person really existed in history. This is where he and his disciples practiced. The place of the Longmen Sect of the True Sect.
Going further down the Yulian Cave, you will come to the ancient village of Talpo. Outside the village, the Shenxianyu, with gurgling streams and mist, is said to be the place where "Gun", the predecessor of the Great Emperor Wu, practiced.
There is also a holy spring, the water is clear and sweet, you can have a taste.
Leave Shenxianyu and take the scenic bus to Babao Palace. Babao Palace, first built in the early Qing Dynasty, is a palace integrating Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism. Because Wulong Palace allocated eight ingots to Babao Palace when it was built, it was named "Babao Palace".
Babao Palace is a five-storey building. The middle of the first floor is the Sanzu Hall, the two sides are the Hall of Medicine King and the Hall of Rescuing Suffering Gods, the second floor is the Hall of the Holy Mother, the third floor is the Hall of Patriarchs, and the fourth floor is the Hall of the Patriarchs. Jade Emperor Hall, the fifth floor is Sanqing Hall. It is said that seeking marriage here is very spiritual!
The last stop of Yunqiu Mountain is the exciting bungee jumping and trapeze.
Jumping down from a 41-meter-high platform, the feeling of weightlessness in an instant is exciting. Of course, this has requirements for individuals. Myopia should not exceed 650 degrees, and I have never had eye surgery, etc. , as a person with deep myopia, it is enviable to see my friends having so much fun! ! !
The trapeze is a bit like swinging on a cliff, but it is more exciting than that, and the brave friends must not miss it! ! !
