Borrowing the wind of the hit web drama "Little Yu Zuo", let's look back at the scenery of traveling to Qianzhou (now Guizhou), where Chuchu grew up, during the summer vacation of 2017.
"The sky does not have three sunny days, the land does not have three miles of flatness, and people do not have three cents of silver." Speaking of Guizhou, this "three noes" folk proverb cannot be avoided.
Affected by atmospheric circulation and topography, Guizhou's climate is diverse. There is a saying that "one mountain is divided into four seasons, and ten miles are divided into different days". In Guizhou, there is a lot of precipitation, the rainy season is obvious, there are many cloudy days, and there is little sunshine. Affected by the monsoon, most of the precipitation is concentrated in summer. The number of cloudy days in various parts of the territory generally exceeds 150 days, and the relative humidity is above 70% all the year round, so there is a saying that "there is no clear sky for three days".
Guizhou has 91.2% of the mountainous area, and it is the only province in China without plains. Complex topography often results in poor air circulation, which favors the accumulation of carbon dioxide gas. Thus, limestone (calcium carbonate) becomes calcium bicarbonate which is slightly soluble in water under the action of excess carbon dioxide and water. After tens of thousands of years of leaching, the typical karst terrain and subsurface flow in Guizhou have been formed. 61.9% of the area in Guizhou Province is covered with karst landforms, known as the "Karst Museum", including the famous karst waterfall - Huangguoshu Waterfall and karst peak forest - Wanfeng Forest. It is the saying that "there is no three-mile flat".
It is precisely because of the unique "time and place" of the first two items that the "harmony of people" is unsatisfactory, that is, the economy is underdeveloped. However, this is also the old calendar. In the past, it was very important to rely on God to reward food, but now people have learned to adapt measures to local conditions, use local materials, and vigorously develop infrastructure. Guizhou's economy has developed rapidly. It is precisely because of the unique climate and location that Guizhou has a geographical environment with many mountains, many waterfalls, many canyons, many karst caves, many streams, and many animals and plants. It is an excellent place for tourism.
Originally, I planned to go to the Northwest to draw a circle in 2017. Later, I happened to see that the Guizhou government introduced special preferential policies to give thanks to several provinces and cities (including Shanghai) that had helped Guizhou, and also to encourage the development of tourism. These Residents of provinces and cities can enjoy a 50% discount on tickets for major attractions with their ID cards. The vulgar me was attracted like this, changed my mind, temporarily put Guizhou on the agenda, and made this "expensive" beautiful landscape trip for nine days and eight nights.
The entire itinerary track is: Shanghai—Xingyi—Huangguoshu—Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village—Libo—Guiyang—Shanghai, the direct flight to Shanghai to Xingyi, and the return flight to Guiyang to Shanghai. During the period, I experienced a total of five hotels/inns, transportation It is enough to take the tools from high-speed rail to bus to minibus to minibus to local bus to taxi to through train to sightseeing bus. But most of the time traveling is not just the experience of "the eyes are in heaven, but the body is in hell".
The total cost for two adults is 1.2W, which is economical.
Day 1Shanghai—Xingyi
A few days before departure, it was the hottest time in Shanghai. Organize your luggage, put on the badge of "Travel by order", escape from the magic city, and head towards Xingyi.
Xingyi, located at the junction of Guizhou, Yunnan, and Guangxi provinces, has always been a commercial distribution center and thoroughfare fortress in the intersection area of the three provinces, known as the "Three Provinces Thoroughfare". The terrain of Xingyi City is high in the northwest and low in the southeast, with undulating mountains and vertical and horizontal rivers. The karst landform in the territory is well developed and the natural resources are extremely rich.
Although Xingyi is not a popular tourist city, its comfortable climate is really worth calling. Xingyi City has a humid subtropical mountainous monsoon climate and is recognized as a golden climate ecological zone in the world. Its unique karst landform and geographical environment have formed a unique ecological environment with clean air in mountainous areas. comfortable climate. The biggest advantages of Xingyi's climate are: suitable altitude, long comfortable period, most suitable for living, cold protection, summer escape and tourism.
Such a slogan can be said to have no moisture at all, and I can use my personal experience as a footnote for it: At that time, Shanghai was a sauna day of 38 or 9 degrees, while Xingyi was an unbelievably cool 22 degrees ! Or room temperature! I'm almost "drunk"! The Xingyi Zhaozhuang Days Resort Hotel booked is still on the mountain. We set the air conditioner in the room at 25 degrees, purely for air circulation. Such a PYQ was sent out, and a wave of hatred was fiercely pulled, old Versailles!
There is only one direct flight from Shanghai to Xingyi every day, and the time is still late. The hotel can provide free pick-up (need to call in advance to book). After I arrived that day, I could basically just stroll around in the hotel. As a result, my hands and feet became cold, and it was too cold in the mountains at night.
The view from the hotel room:
morning. Light gauze and mist, light clouds and light wind;
sunset. The weather is myriad, and the dragon is looming.
Day 2 Xingyi Wanfeng Forest - Malinghe Grand Canyon
The hotel is equipped with a special shuttle bus to downtown Xingyi and the Maling River Canyon. The shuttle bus is equipped with different models according to the number of people. Basically, there are very few people on board. When we go, we are picked up by small cars. There are only two of us, which is equivalent to a special car. If you go to Wanfenglin, you can also make an appointment in advance, and the fee is 80 per trip. Generally, it is necessary to make an appointment half an hour in advance. In fact, it is basically enough to tell the front desk to use a car temporarily.
We have a road god, so we didn’t take the hotel car directly to Wanfenglin, but first went to Jushan Square in the urban area, and then took bus No. 4 to No. 19 to Wanfenglin (the routes back and forth in the urban area are not exactly the same, so be careful when changing back and forth The bus station may be different); there are sightseeing buses in Wanfenglin Scenic Area, and they will stop for a period of time at each scenic spot for tourists to take pictures, and go around for about two hours.
Wanfeng Forest, more than 200 kilometers long and 30-50 kilometers wide, is one of the three major karst landforms in southwest China. Wide, it can be called the China Cone Karst Museum, and it is known as "the wonder of the world". More than 360 years ago, Xu Xiake, a famous geographer and traveler, came to Wanfeng Forest. He also praised: "there are so many mountains in the world, but only here are the peaks forming a forest."
Wanfeng Forest includes Dongfeng Forest and Xifeng Forest Scenic Spots. At present, it is mainly Xifeng Forest that is open to the outside world. Xifenglin is a series of beautiful mountains, which are integrated with green fields, winding rivers, quaint villages and lush forests, forming the best ecological environment in nature and forming a rare pastoral scenery of peak forests in the world. At the foot of Xifenglin Mountain, there is a meandering creek, which flows slowly from south to west from the farmland, like a swimming line, connecting several Buyi villages nestled by the river like pearls; It is also like a hanging rope, hanging a huge picture scroll of strange peaks like forests, fields and dams like brocades, villages like pearls, and ancient banyan trees like emerald greens.
According to the shape of the peak forest, it can be divided into five types: Array Peak Forest, Baojian Peak Forest, Qunlong Peak Forest, Arhat Peak Forest, and Diemao Peak Forest. It is the most mature cone-shaped peak forest in China's karst geological landforms. Representatives, each type has its own characteristics, which are independent and interesting, and complement each other with other types of peak forests to form a magnificent and vast karst landscape.
This situation reminds me of a famous saying: Looking at the mountains from a distance, there is a pot of steamed buns.
This mountain is known as Liuliu Dashun Peak, and the wit of the working people is also impressive.
There is a very distinctive gossip field in Wanfeng Forest, which is naturally formed. It lies flat in the middle of the farmland in Nahuizhai. There are three natural floor drains in Bagua Tianzhong, which are so deep that they are called the eyes of the earth—the eyes of the earth. These funnel groups are wide and shallow dish-shaped funnels, and the farmland and cultivated land are centered on the funnels and distributed in an arc, forming a strange "eight trigrams" pattern.
In spring, you can also enjoy a wonderful sight in Wanfenglin, which is ten thousand acres of rapeseed flowers. The golden rape blossoms are in full bloom under the strong warm sun, and the cascading peak forests extend to the horizon in the sunlight of early spring. Under the peak forest is a bright yellow sea-like rapeseed field, and unknown villages loom in it. In the distance are green hills like Daisy, and nearby are cauliflowers like blankets. Although we couldn't see rapeseed flowers in the season we went, we can also imagine the golden scene everywhere.
Photos of Wan Fenglin holding hands:
From Wanfenglin, take bus No. 19 to Panjiang East Road, then transfer to bus No. 4 and get to the Malinghe Grand Canyon.
Known as "a beautiful scar on the earth", Malinghe Canyon is an important member of Xingyi National Geological Park, integrating majesty, wonder, danger and beauty. The valley is 74.8 kilometers long, 50-150 meters wide, 120-280 meters deep, and the bottom of the valley is 200 meters below the ground. Many tributaries on both sides of the strait lag behind the mainstream due to the downward cutting speed, forming hundreds of waterfalls with a height of more than 100 meters and falling into the deep valley. The average width and depth of the canyon are between 200-400 meters, the narrowest point is only 50 meters, and the deepest point is 500 meters. It is so narrow and deep that it is rare.
The Malinghe Canyon is a deep fissure in the orogenic movement, which is a ground fissure from top to bottom, and a line of gutter from bottom to top. In the valley, there are many waterfalls flowing, green bamboos hanging upside down, caves connected, and ancient and famous trees on both sides of the valley dotted among them, in various poses and with different expressions. Touring in the Maling River Canyon, you will feel the infinite magic of nature. The canyon is deep and secluded, and the plank road climbs the cliff, which is winding and fascinating. Swimming along the road is like entering a painting. "Clouds and rocks are even more strange, and strange paintings are incomparable. Only poetry can be written about strangeness, and poetry is in the empty mountains." Indeed, the Maling River Canyon is a poem in the empty mountains.
The Maling River Canyon is characterized by the crevice valleys, flying waterfalls, and calcium carbonate wall hangings. Because the river water in the karst area contains a lot of calcium carbonate, carbon dioxide is released rapidly during the fall, and the calcium carbonate is attached to the cliff. With the passage of time, the calcium carbonate material became thicker and thicker, and the area became larger and larger, so a large-scale and majestic calcification waterfall group was bred on the two walls of the canyon. The calcified waterfall with an area of more than 300,000 square kilometers interweaves with the majestic waterfall and peak forest, forming an extremely rare and rare landscape. These scale-like calcified fossils can also be used as natural landscaping. The picture below was titled "Tiger Drinking Water" by Brother Zhao:
The Malinghe Canyon is completely on its own. There are countless large and small waterfalls throughout the whole process. Although it is not as magnificent as the Huangguoshu Waterfall, it is better in volume. Three steps for one waterfall, five steps for one big waterfall, sometimes graceful, sometimes majestic , It is difficult for people not to get "wet", so it is best to bring an umbrella or poncho. The ground is slippery, so be careful when walking. There is a section where you can take the elevator straight up and down, and the round trip or one-way is 40 yuan. It is not recommended, because even if you take the elevator, you will only take a short distance, but you still have to walk by yourself. There are two cable bridges on the Maling River, which connect the two banks of the river. When you can go, you can walk on one side, and when you come back, you can walk on the other side, and you will come back after a circle.
See the rainbow in the Maling River:
After this day's tour, we went back to Jushan Square and had dinner at a nearby restaurant called Shuji Gangzi Noodles. It was delicious, with spicy and non-spicy options, and there were also many choices of side dishes for the Gangzi Noodles. , strongly recommended, just opposite Jushan Square. Then inform the hotel to send a shuttle bus to Jushan Square to pick us up before 6:00 pm, and they will know about Shuji Gangzi Noodles.
Day 3 Xingyi—Huangguoshu Waterfall in Huangguoshu Scenic Area
After breakfast, book a hotel chartered car to go to Xingyi West Passenger Transport Station (80 yuan, about half an hour’s drive). It is still reliable to charter a car at the hotel. We wanted to try Didi Hailing at the beginning, because the price was half cheaper, but we were sent to the pigeons. We called the hotel's car temporarily, but luckily we had time to catch the bus. For the bus from Xingyi to Huangguoshu, you can follow "Guizhou Haoxing" on WeChat, buy tickets directly online (Xingyi West-Huangguoshu), and get the ticket with the password after arriving at the West Station. The bus from Xingyi West Station to Anshun passes through Huangguoshu. The bus stops at the Huangguoshu Toll Station, which is two kilometers away from the ticket office of Huangguoshu Scenic Area. After getting off the bus, there will be local people there to solicit customers. 10 yuan will be sent to the ticket office of the scenic spot. .
The Zhijian Hotel I booked is near the ticket office of the scenic spot. The rooms in this hotel are small, but the accommodation conditions there are limited, which is okay.
The street opposite the ticket office of the scenic spot is full of places to eat. There is a restaurant called Badawan. The food tastes good, and the boss is good at doing business. When we went there for the second time, we took the initiative to send a piece of fruit and gave advice on how to visit. Better. Fortunately, I listened to his words that afternoon and went to the Huangguoshu Waterfall first, otherwise it would rain the next day.
The pass for Huangguoshu Scenic Spot can be visited for two days. You don’t need to buy a sightseeing bus ticket for the scenic spot. When you come out of the ticket office, turn right and walk to the corner. There is a taxi ticket seller. The fare is the same as that of the bus. Four people per car. It is more flexible than waiting in long queues for sightseeing buses.
Huangguoshu Scenic Area actually contains three major scenic spots: Huangguoshu Waterfall, Doupotang Waterfall and Tianxing Bridge Scenic Area. This afternoon we went to Huangguoshu Waterfall first. Summer vacation is the wet season, and the water volume of the waterfall is huge, and the sound of rushing water can be heard from a long distance.
Huangguoshu Waterfall is one of the famous waterfalls in the world, famous for its huge water. The height of the waterfall is 77.8 meters, of which the height of the main waterfall is 67 meters; the width of the waterfall is 101 meters, of which the top of the main waterfall is 83.3 meters wide. Huangguoshu Waterfall is a typical waterfall in karst landform. Huangguoshu Waterfall is also famous thanks to Xu Xiake. Later, it became a well-known scenic spot through the travel and dissemination of a representative celebrity.
The standard photo of the Great Falls, the side photo of the double rainbow photo, the perfect arc photo, well, I have exhausted my prehistoric power.
The photo of holding hands in front of the Great Falls, voice-over: Don't pull me, let me follow the rainbow. . .
Day 4 Huangguoshu Scenic Spot Doupotang Waterfall + Tianxing Bridge
The Tianxing Bridge Scenic Spot is located 7,000 meters upstream of the Huangguoshu Waterfall. It is a beautiful combination of stones, trees and water. If the Huangguoshu Waterfall is characterized by its majesty, then the Tianxing Bridge is exquisite and beautiful. The couplet of "Wind Knife Water Sword Carved Ten Thousand Tilting Bonsai, Root Brush, Rattan and Ink Draws Eternal Paintings" summarizes the charm of Tianxing Bridge Scenic Area.
Tianxing Bridge Scenic Area can be divided into stone scenery, water scenery, tree scenery, and cave scenery. In fact, they cannot be completely separated, because they are integrated with each other, and this fusion is not only a physical fusion, but more importantly, a spiritual one. fusion. Tianxing Bridge is a very spiritual place, mountains have spirituality, water has spirituality, trees have spirituality, and even stones have spirituality.
The most distinctive silver pendant waterfall is shaped like a bucket, its sound is like a song, and its shape is like a chain. The name is very vivid:
Come on, drink this glass of lemon waterfall water:
Tianxing Bridge has not only waterfalls, but also jagged and strange rocks. The rocks and water are interdependent and grow with each other.
The picture below shows the magical bridge on the bridge (easy to go around), the three independent stones are cleverly combined, and there is a spiritual passage left for walking.
The most nostalgic thing in the natural bonsai area is the "number of steps". It is said that the water level in the bonsai area is fixed, and the stones in the water are naturally formed. Some stones are paved into roads after processing, and are exposed to the water for tourists to walk on. That is the famous "number of steps". A stone is a step, a step is a day, a total of 366 stones of various shapes meandering in the water, exactly one year, everyone has a share. Walking in the scene is like swimming in a painting. Everyone looks at the date on the stone while walking, finds the piece of his birth, which is his "birth step", and then stands on his "birth step" , make a wish, leave a shadow.
Doupotang Waterfall is located one kilometer upstream of Huangguoshu Waterfall. The top of the waterfall is 105 meters wide and 21 meters high. It is the widest waterfall in the Huangguoshu Waterfall Group. On the top of Doupotang Waterfall is a huge melting pool with an area of 15,000 square meters, and the waterfall is formed on a calcified beach dam that is more than 100 meters long. Doupotang Waterfall has a special phenomenon: whenever the flood comes, the waterfall will make a roar of "boom, boom", so it is also called "roaring waterfall".
Does this Doupotang Waterfall look familiar? That's right, this is the waterfall where the four masters and apprentices lead their horses through in the ending song of the classic CCTV TV series "Journey to the West".
Day 5 Huangguoshu - Anshun - Kaili - Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village
This is the most frustrating day.
There are many buses from Huangguoshu to Anshun West Station. There is a passenger station next to the ticket office of the scenic spot. The bus starts at 7:00 in the morning. It is very convenient and the fare is 22 yuan per person. There is a high-speed train from Anshun West Station to Kaili South Station, and there is a direct train from Kaili South Station to Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village. There is a small house on the right hand side of the high-speed rail station that sells tickets. Ask if it is to the north gate of Miao Village (because it is booked) The inn is close to the north gate), and some staff members will take them to the parking lot to take a minibus when there are too many people on the bus, send them to the north gate parking lot of Qianhu Miao Village, and then go to the ticket office to buy tickets. The inn we booked is in the scenic spot, but there is still a long distance from the entrance of the scenic spot, so we contacted the inn and asked them to call a car to pick it up at the north gate. The fare is 15 yuan per person. Otherwise, you need to take the minibus of the scenic spot to the gate inside first, then change to the sightseeing bus to the fixed stop, and there is still a distance to go when you get down from the inn. To avoid trouble, simply let the inn send a car to pick it up. The car called by the inn can be pulled directly from the north gate to the foot of the mountain where the inn is located, and then climb up the steps. The inn will send a little brother to carry the luggage up for free.
The Moshang Huakai Hotel I booked is located on the mountainside, and the steps are very high and steep. It would be exhausting to climb up without luggage. The attitude of the receptionist at the inn is very good. Seeing us crawling out of breath and sweating profusely, he immediately cut iced watermelon for us to eat. He also took out a map to explain the major locations in the scenic area, and would recommend delicious places (Caotang Tea House, not only There is tea, and you can also eat, but it is a bit difficult to find, but the dishes taste good, the yellow beef is delicious, and his sour plum soup is also delicious), the Wi-Fi in the inn is not very strong, and it is often disconnected.
There is a viewing platform in the scenic area, where you can take a picture of the Miao Village. You can take a sightseeing bus in the scenic area (5 yuan/time), or you can walk up. It is not far from the inn where we live.
This bus—high-speed rail—medium bus—minibus—climbs up steep slopes, just to take a look at you in the mountains:
There is a barbecue street and an ancient street in the scenic area, both of which sell food and souvenirs. There is also a large field with lotus and rice planted. However, the lotus is surrounded and cannot be photographed close up. The scale is not large, and the fields are long. Random piles of garbage can be seen from time to time, which affects the perception.
Therefore, the scenery is basically viewed from a distance, and the inn is basically based on feelings.
In the inn, you can take pictures of Miao Village from another angle, and you can take very good photos in the morning and evening.
Morning light & night light, which one do you prefer?
Day 6 Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village - Libo - Daqikong
Today I would like to praise Brother Zhao, because we have to catch the through train from Miaozhai to Libo, and we have to leave early in the morning, and the little brother in the inn was not at work at that time, and no one helped us carry our luggage down. So Brother Zhao walked down the 99 steep steps all the way down with three big bags, and his legs were weak.
Pass-through tickets are sold on Ctrip. You will receive a text message one day in advance to inform you of the meeting place for the next day. At the gate of the beautiful Xijiang performance venue, guests will be transported to the north gate by a sightseeing car and then take a bus. At the meeting point, no one held up a sign to meet up, so I asked blindly by myself. I finally found two staff members who didn’t have any signs on them, so I took the passenger list in my hand and looked through it. No one knew who they were waiting for. Guest!
The bus was sent to the east gate of Xiaoqikong in Libo. Because Xiaoqikong was being remodeled at that time, there was a lot of construction work at the entrance and in the scenic area, and the traffic was very inconvenient. I do not recommend the Park Inn by Radisson Xiaoqikong I booked. Before the renovation, this hotel was at the east entrance of Xiaoqikong. Now the east gate has been moved outside, and the hotel is included in the scenic spot. There are still three kilometers from the entrance of the scenic spot to the hotel, and there is no shuttle bus. If you are not driving by yourself, you can only take the sightseeing car in the scenic spot, and say hello in advance to ask the master to stop here. The most amazing thing is that going to this hotel is equivalent to entering the scenic spot. You need to use the scenic spot ticket and sightseeing bus ticket to get in. These two tickets are one-time and cannot be reused, so it took a lot of talking and explaining to the ticket inspector , Remark on the two tickets, so that you can visit with the ticket the next day. In addition, the information of some scenic spots provided by the hotel is not accurate. It can be seen that the coordination between the hotel and the scenic spots is poor, the hotel price is not cheap, and the price/performance ratio is really low.
That afternoon we went to the Daqikong Scenic Spot. The Daqikong is not far from the Xiaoqikong, but it is not as large as the Xiaoqikong, so half a day is enough to browse. On the way from Xingyi to Libo, the temperature has risen sharply, and it has reached 36 degrees by the time we reach Daqikong. This is the rhythm of walking side by side with Shanghai.
Although the Big Seven Holes are not as famous as the Small Seven Holes, there are mountains and waters to watch. Daqikong Scenic Spot is a scenic spot with primitive forests, canyons, subterranean currents and underground lakes as the main body. The skylight, the sun casts a shape like the sun, the moon and the stars.
There is also a natural bridge standing majestically, known as the "Oriental Arc de Triomphe shaped by the divine power of nature", which is amazing to watch. This natural giant rock across both sides of the river is one of the wonders of karst landforms. It is commonly known as Tiansheng Bridge, also known as Xianren Bridge. It is 60 meters high, more than 10 meters thick, and the bridge hole is more than 20 meters wide. Looking up at the bottom of the bridge hole, you can see giant stalactites hanging, green stones, grasses and shrubs grow out of the cracks and stones at the foot of the bridge and on the side of the bridge, vines and flowers wrap the bridge body, and the water under the bridge surges.
Day 7 Xiaoqikong Scenic Spot One-day Tour
Xiaoqikong Scenic Area is a primitive spectacle integrating mountains, water, forests, caves, lakes and waterfalls. It was listed as a national nature reserve in 1988. The scenic spot is 7 kilometers long and covers an area of about 10 square kilometers.
The entire Xiaoqikong Scenic Area is integrated with mountains, water, forests, caves, lakes and waterfalls. The intertwined Guibei Mountain, the water forest interspersed with forest streams, the Yuanyang Lake inlaid with dense forests, the deep blue Wolong Lake, and the Xiangshui River run through the entire scenic spot.
Across the Xiangshui River is a seven-hole arch bridge made of bluestone, which was built in the fifteenth year of Daoguang (1836), hence the name "Small Seven-hole Scenic Spot". This is a small and exquisite seven-hole ancient stone bridge. The bridge is 25 meters long, the bridge deck is 4 meters wide, and the arch height is 4 meters. The fascinating Hanbitan. The ancient trees on both sides are towering, and the huge twigs stretch along the bridge arm, like a giant umbrella on the bridge.
Laya Waterfall is more than 100 meters away from the Xiaoqikong Bridge. The waterfall is 10 meters wide and has a drop of 30 meters. The waterfall sprays in the air and falls horizontally. The waterfall is on the side of the road, and people feel refreshed under the waterfall.
In the narrow valley upstream of Hanbitan, there are 68 falling waterfalls. Layers upon layers of waterfalls spread out one after another. , like the Milky Way pouring down the ground, with different shapes and myriad weathers, forming a dynamic waterscape with various styles.
Wolongtan is the outlet of Wolong River, a karst underground river. From the surface, it is only the source of Wolong River. Due to the artificial construction of a ring-shaped rolling dam, the surface of the pool is like a mirror without any ripples. Even when there is a flood, the surface of the pool is as calm as a mirror. Under cloudy light, the water color changes from light to dark blue, light blue, and dark blue. There are strange rocks and strange trees beside the pool, dense ancient trees, the roar of the water, and the surrounding mountains are tightly locked.
Cuigu Waterfall, where the peaks are tightly locked and the mountains are verdant, hence the name "Cuigu". Cuigu Waterfall hangs on the waist of the mountains. It is the waterfall with the largest drop in Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. The waterfall is more than 60 meters high. Misty, like a group of dragons descending the mountain.
Tour summary: Take a sightseeing bus from the east gate of the scenic spot, pull it to the top Wolongtan at the first stop, and then go to the next stop for a tour. Recommended must-see attractions: Wolongtan, Cuigu Waterfall (follow Bell to the adventure shooting location), 68-level waterfall, Laya Waterfall, Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge. If you don't go boating, you don't need to go to Yuanyang Lake, you can only go boating there. You can also go to the water forest if you have time.
I was lucky today. The sun was shining brightly in the scenic area, and the weather was getting better. It rained not long after I got back to the hotel. The rain was not light, so I managed to avoid it, perfect!
Day 8 Xiaoqikong—Libo—Guiyang
There are minibuses from Xiaoqikong to Libo Bus Station. There are many cars at the east gate of the scenic spot. The journey takes about 40 minutes. You can directly transfer to the bus to Guiyang at the bus station. It takes about 4 hours to drive from Libo to Guiyang East Railway Station. Tickets can also be bought on "Guizhou Haoxing", which seems to be only two days in advance. Take a taxi directly from Guiyang East Railway Station to Kempinski Hotel. This hotel is nice, the room is very spacious, the lady at the front desk has a good attitude, after all, it is an old five-star hotel, and the location is good, it is enough to walk to Jiaxiu Building for 10 minutes, there are many snack bars around, and the transportation is convenient.
Jiaxiu Building was first built in the 26th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1598). The building was built on a huge stone in the river. Jiaxiu Tower is divided into upper and lower floors, all of which are built with white stones as railings. "Fuyu Bridge" connects the two banks, and there is a small pavilion on the bridge named "Hanbi Pavilion"; the overall Zhuliangbiwa, three floors, three eaves and four corners with a pointed roof. Jiaxiu Tower is a witness to the history of Guiyang and a symbol in the history of cultural development.
Guiyang Guiyang, the most expensive is the sun; Jiaxiu Jiaxiu, Kejia Tingxiu.
The Jiaxiu brand ruler is really a must-have tool for home travel and admonishing children.
I met a small western-style building on the road, which has a unique style. I asked Du Niang, and I learned that it was the former residence of Wang Boqun, a political figure in the Republic of China. This French-style building is a provincial-level cultural relic protection unit in Guizhou. It's a pity that I can only pat the appearance.
In the evening, go to Erqi Road Snack Street to look for food, not far from the hotel, and take a taxi for 10 yuan.
The snack street recommends Leijia tofu dumplings, which are actually stinky tofu dumplings, the skin is fried very crispy, and his crispy tofu fried rice with soy sauce is also very good. Crispy Whistle is a local specialty of Guiyang. Its original name should be Crispy Sao, which means crispy meat sausage. It is fragrant, salty, crispy and refreshing, which is very suitable for my appetite.
Next to Leijia Tofu Yuanzi is a pancake seller, which is rich in ingredients, delicious in color, fragrance, and only 9 yuan each, which is cheap and good. The only two on this snack street look like they have a good sanitary environment and taste good.
Day 9 Guiyang—Shanghai
There is a bus stop to the airport opposite the hotel, every half an hour, 10 yuan/person.
The trip to Guizhou has come to an end, let’s make a summary at the end of the trip:
1. Xingyi is very cool, and it is often suitable for summer vacation. The urban area is small and old, but the scenic spot is well built and the traffic is very convenient;
2. The Huangguoshu Scenic Area has developed very maturely. The large passenger flow is scattered and transported back and forth quickly and efficiently. You can choose to stay near the ticket office of the scenic spot. Although the conditions are limited, you don’t have to worry about transportation and meals. It’s just that there are too many people in the scenic spot. It’s really painful to take a photo ;
3. Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village is relatively not a recommended scenic spot. Although it is very tempting to cheat, it is actually tears. Not to mention the bumpy road, the management of the scenic spot is not good enough, and the environment is dirty and messy, which makes people frown. If you want to take pictures, you can flash them after taking pictures;
