2. Matters needing attention
1. Guizhou tourist season: The reference value of Guizhou weather forecast is not high, and the weather forecast changes every day. There is heavy rainfall in April, and water skiing on mountain roads is not abundant from November to March, so travel is not recommended. July-August is the peak season. Guizhou is cooler than most parts of the country, but the number of people in scenic spots and housing prices are more than three times that of other seasons. September belongs to the off-season, the weather is as hot as July-August, and sometimes there are few tourists and it is impossible to form a group.
2. Accommodation in Guizhou: The price of accommodation in Guizhou is not high, but you often have to climb uphill, so the location is very important, and you should live in a convenient place. Guiyang recommends staying near the Old Passenger Station Tourist Distribution Center, Libo recommends staying near the east gate of Xiaoqikong, Xijiang recommends staying near No. 1 Fengyu Bridge or viewing platform, and Zhenyuan recommends staying along the ancient city of Wuyang River.
3. Transportation in Guizhou: The scenic spots in Guizhou are very scattered and the transportation is inconvenient. Guiyang is in the center and there are high-speed rails to several big cities (they pass through caves with no signal). Most scenic spots only have roads. There are too many mountains. 9 billion. Self-driving tours are not easy to drive, and there are few long-distance bus trips. You can use Guiyang as a base and sign up for more 1-day tour groups to save you from always carrying luggage.
4. Guiyang food: You can survive in Guizhou without eating spicy food. There are more tourists and restaurants provide more choices. Guiyang recommends Baozheng Guizhou Snack Research Center, Old Kaili Fish in Sour Soup, Guichu Beef in Sour Soup, and Nanmenkou Changwang Noodles. Looking at the meals in my itinerary for other attractions, I am basically satisfied with the food.
5. Bring rain gear: Huangguoshu Waterfall with raincoat, Malinghe Canyon with raincoat and waterproof shoe covers. It is usually enough to bring an umbrella. It rains for a while and then clears up in an hour. Xiaoqikong and Miao Village can play in the water, bring a pair of waterproof slippers.
6. Shopping: The shopping malls in big cities have similar things, and Guizhou is not cheap. The specialty of Guizhou is prickly pear, but it is really not delicious. Seasonal fruit ebony, kiwi, and orange cakes are delicious, so eat more when you are in Guizhou. August fruit is not delicious, you can try it if you have never eaten it. The 53° sauce-flavored liquor is the best. You can’t buy Moutai in Moutai Town. The wines from other local wineries are not well-known brands. They are suitable for drinking by yourself, and usually free shipping.
7. Lightning protection:
(1) When booking a hotel, you must first call to ask whether the dry and wet separation is available. Most hotels in Guizhou do not have dry and wet separation, and some hotels have dry and wet separation for individual room types.
(2) The direct train tickets from Xijiang to Zhenyuan are in short supply and need to be booked 1-2 weeks in advance.
(3) The figs in Huangguoshu Scenic Area are not delicious, so there is no need to buy shoe covers.
(4) If you don't like spicy food, you must tell the waiter that it is not spicy at all. Don't listen to the staff who say it is not spicy. If they are not spicy, it is still very spicy for us.
(5) Bring mosquito repellent and spray it at any time, and you must light mosquito coils at night, there are really many mosquitoes in Guizhou.
(6) Guiyang is congested from morning to night, especially during peak hours, so reserve a good time.
(7) In the off-season, it is basically a group tour, whichever is cheaper for the same itinerary.

On September 20th, after doing 18 strategies, Tutuchu finally set off for Guizhou, which he had always been thinking about. Since I made an appointment to go to the hospital to see an expert clinic that morning, I booked a flight at 4:35 pm. The China Eastern Airlines air ticket (503 yuan) includes meals, which happened to include dinner as well. There are many mountains in Guiyang. From the plane, you can see some small villages and green hills around Guiyang. Between the mountains, there is a path with eighteen bends on the mountain road, connecting every small village. The small villages are dotted in dots, and they look very moving in a large tree-lined mountain. I think this is the fireworks in the world! Soon we arrived in the sky above Guiyang. Seen from the plane, Guiyang is not big, it is in a mountain nest. Of course, compared to those small villages, it can be regarded as a bustling scene full of stars.
There is a subway in Guiyang, which is very convenient. After leaving the airport, we took subway line 2 directly from Longdongbao Airport to Zilinan subway station. Tutu tried to swipe the bus card in Shanghai, and found that it is universal, so convenient! There are not many people taking the subway. There is a characteristic in the subway that some pictorial wallpapers celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China are everywhere. The red carriages make people feel excited. The line map of Guiyang Metro Station also looks like a tourist map of scenic spots. It is quite interesting to mark all the scenic spots on it.
We arrived at the hotel in about 40 minutes. The Yaster Hotel is an inconspicuous hotel but the room decoration is very good. The room decoration style and facilities can be compared with Jiji and Home Inns, but the price is very cheap, less than 300 during holidays. Only 140 on weekdays. The location of the hotel is also invincible. The hotel is located in the city center, opposite to Huijin Xingli City. The shopping mall is very large and has all kinds of restaurants and shops. The downstairs is Hema Xiansheng. When we arrived at the mall, it was close to nine o’clock, most of the restaurants were closed, and we didn’t find anything to eat after walking around. Finally, we bought a bag of Hokkaido bread and a box of cheese at Hippo Fresh. The bread was the second day's breakfast. There are many snack bars on the nearby streets, but they feel a bit low-end and the environment doesn't look hygienic, so we didn't dare to eat them. More importantly, the tourist distribution center is next to the hotel. It only takes 5 minutes to walk without crossing the road. Many local tour groups depart from here. Even if the price of other hotels around is 1-2 times more expensive, there is no comparison. The three- and four-star hotels are all covered with carpets, not floors, which is unacceptable to me who have higher environmental hygiene requirements.
DAY2: 9/21 Tuesday Dragon Palace
1. Content: Dragon Palace Scenic Area, Jiaxiu Tower
2. Transportation: (1) Guiyang-Anshun high-speed rail 30 minutes (2) Anshun-Longgong through train
3. Meals: all included in Guizhou Snack Research Center
4. Accommodation: Guiyang-Old Passenger Station Yaster Hotel
Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is a small long holiday. The popular scenic spots must be full of people, so I chose the relatively small Dragon Palace Scenic Area. Dragon Palace is not far from Huangguoshu, both in Anshun, you need to take the high-speed train from Guiyang North Station to Anshun West Station. I bought tickets for the Dragon Palace on Ctrip in advance, and the 160 tickets only cost 152, including the scenic spot tickets, sightseeing bus and boat tickets.
I was always worried about the rain, but when I got up in the morning, it was sunny and the sky was clear. It looked like another sunny day. It was a bit hot in the morning, and the rabbit was actually woken up by the heat, so he went out after eating bread and honey water. The bread is the Hokkaido bread bought last night at Hema Xiansheng. A large bag costs only 9.9. The honey water is specially produced Manuka honey. The food in Guizhou is quite spicy. I don’t know if the stomach can stand it. Honey is always ready. I booked the train at 09:20, and called a few times with Baidu Maps, but it was about three kilometers away, so I canceled the stop at the hotel entrance. After the morning rush hour, the road was very smooth, and it took 20 minutes to arrive at Guiyang North Railway Station, which was a bit early.
It takes half an hour for the high-speed rail to arrive at Anshun. When you come out of the train station, you will find Guiyang Bus Station on the right. There is a direct train to Dragon Palace at the bus station. It costs 25 yuan per person and departs at 11:30. There are only two of us. The through train is a seven-seater van, and it seems that there are not many people taking it. The driver drove a little fiercely, and arrived at the Dragon Palace Scenic Area in about 20 minutes after 20 kilometers.
I was worried that there would be too many tourists during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but I didn't expect that there were very few tourists, but I waited for a long time to buy tickets, because many children and tourists in the province are free of charge, so I waited for a long time to enter my ID card. And because we are in the Ctrip ticket, we got the ticket soon after we got in line.
The Dragon Palace Scenic Area is long and narrow, and you don’t have to go back the whole way. First, take a sightseeing bus to the other end of the Dragon Palace, then take a boat twice to a relatively middle location, and then walk about 3 kilometers for an hour on the mountain road. After leaving the mountain, take a two-kilometer boat, and finally walk for 10 minutes to the exit next to the tourist center of the scenic spot.
Let's take a sightseeing car first, and then we will go to Longmen Waterfall first. The waterfall looks very imposing, but the effect is very ordinary. Then you can go up the waterfall, or take a 20 yuan/person direct elevator to the mountain. Then, there is the most interesting place in the Dragon Palace, the first entry and the second entry to the palace, and two boat rides in the cave. The cave is very cool, the temperature is about five degrees lower than outside, but it is not too cold. Some parts of the cave are very narrow, and a small boat just passed through. This is the essence of the Dragon Palace. It is said to be the Dragon Palace because it resembles the scene of the Dragon Palace in Journey to the West.
At the end of the second trip to the palace, the boatman would ask us whether we should go back the same way or continue walking, and told us to walk the mountain road for at least 40 minutes, and then take the third boat. Tutu had already made a strategy before, and there was nothing to see on the road ahead, so he considered returning. At this time, Xiao Mochu made a very wrong decision, and he insisted on going on without turning back. Sure enough, there is only a small Guanyin Cave and a wheat field. In order to save energy, Tutu took the zipline and leaped over the canyon with trepidation, 40 per person. The third boat trip is at a place called Xuantang outside, which is actually a small river with nothing to see. In the end, after taking a lot of wrong paths, the rabbit directly blew up!
And because we missed the return time of the through train because of the mountain road, it was already 03:15 when we got out of the car at 02:30. Fortunately, there happened to be an online car-hailing car to send people to Dragon Palace, so we returned with the master. It was only 70 yuan, and I successfully caught up with the high-speed train back to Guiyang at 4 o'clock.
I thought it would be very convenient to take a taxi to Jiaxiu Tower when I came back from the high-speed rail, but I didn’t expect that it was very difficult to take a taxi when I came out of the high-speed rail station just in time for the rush hour. There is no taxi waiting point at Guiyang High-speed Railway Station, so the order is chaotic. There are only waiting points for online taxis, and the two sides are full of people calling taxis. After waiting for about 20 minutes, there was an online car-hailing service. The road is a bit congested, and it is already 17:30 when we drive to Jiaxiu Tower, and Jiaxiu Tower closes at 17:00, so we can only look at the exterior. Jiaxiu Tower is built on a palm-sized island in the middle of the river, similar to a pavilion in the center of the lake. The tall Jiaxiu Tower is actually very short, about three stories high, and you can’t see the whole picture of Guiyang.
Just across the road from Jiaxiu Tower is Guiyang’s famous Guizhou Snack Research Center, which means that it includes all the snacks in Guizhou. How can you miss it? We ordered the famous silk baby, Moutai soy sauce flame rice, old Guiyang tofu dumplings, and Liupanshui three-year-old raw ham, Maojian beer and bean curd fruit dumplings. The price is not expensive, and the dishes are big. I wanted to order a few dishes first to fill my stomach, and then order the second round. After ordering the first round, there is no second round! Since today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the merchant also gave away a pineapple mooncake, and two small snack gift packs for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
After eating the package, it was still early, so we took a taxi to Liangzi Zudao. This well-received five-star footpath really has an elegant environment and considerate service. The technician is very professional, and also used a timer alarm clock, but unfortunately the free watermelon is rotten. Of course, the price of 168 for 80 minutes is indeed not cheap, especially in places like Guizhou.
When we came out, we bought kiwi fruit and pumpkin bread at the convenience store opposite, and two boxes of milk for breakfast the next day. The kiwi fruit is the green kiwi fruit produced in Liupanshui. It is the seasonal fruit here. It is very sweet and full of water. It costs 9.9 yuan for 6 pieces.
DAY3: 9/22 Wednesday Huangguoshu
1. Content: Huangguoshu Waterfall 1-day tour group - 7 hours in-depth tour
2. Transportation: Tourist commercial vehicles
3. Meals: KFC Guailu Rice
4. Accommodation: Guiyang-Old Passenger Station Yaster Hotel
I originally thought about living in Anshun and going to Huangguoshu on my own, but I thought it was inconvenient to carry luggage back and forth, and Huangguoshu was not familiar with it, so I still needed to go with a group, so I set off from Guiyang, considering that it would take five hours to arrive and return, Tutu booked a 2+1 first class bus tour group. Unexpectedly, there were only two groups of four families in the daily report group, so the first class cabin became a seven-seat Buick car, and I experienced the courtesy of a private group. Huangguoshu Waterfall is divided into three scenic spots, which are separated by a certain distance. There is a shuttle bus (included in the ticket), which is outside the scenic spot. The road conditions are very complicated, so it is recommended to follow the group, or you may not be able to touch it. north. Guizhou tourism is relatively advanced, and it is more convenient to enter and exit the scenic spot by using the ID card to buy tickets + face comparison.
The first is Tianxingqiao Waterfall. Generally, if you are with a multi-day group, Tianxingqiao Waterfall will only take half a journey. This is why I booked a one-day in-depth tour. The first half of the journey is over when you walk to Gaolaozhuang. There are no special attractions. The second half of the journey is Tianxing Bridge and Yinlian Zhuitan Waterfall. The essence of the whole scenic spot is the waterfall. The diamond-like wedding dress skirt, I am at a loss for words, I can only say it is too beautiful! Another group of families were unwilling to leave, so they went back to the door to wait for us. The tour guide took the two of us for the second half of the hike. The young people walked briskly, and we didn't take crazy pictures, so we completed the three-hour trip in two hours.
Due to the small number of people, we had to solve lunch by ourselves. We ate the KFC at the gate of Huangguoshu, and the taste was so-so. In the afternoon, go to Huangguoshu Waterfall first. Huangguoshu Waterfall is very tall, but it is not as beautiful as imagined. You can go around to the back of the waterfall, and it is more interesting to cross the water curtain hole. The water is a bit big. It is recommended to wear a raincoat, and rain boots are not necessary. Huangguoshu Waterfall has three observation decks: upper, middle and lower. The viewing platform in the middle is the best for taking pictures. I can’t take pictures from above, but the viewing platform below seems to be raining, my head is wet, and my hair is sticking together, how can I take a good-looking picture? There are many fruit sellers here in Huangguoshu. We bought sweet potatoes, which are very delicious. They were peeled for us. Others include ebony oranges and the like. In addition, we also saw figs as big as tomatoes, which are not expensive at ten yuan a catty, but they are not sweet at all, and they are full of bugs, and some are moldy.
The last scenic spot is Doupotang Waterfall, which is a bit similar to Yinlian Zhuitan Waterfall. But one is more concentrated, one is more dispersed, each has its own beauty. We returned at four o'clock after the tour. The return journey back to the city was a bit congested, and it happened to be the rush hour after work. Originally, the one-day tour group was on a different peak and there would be no traffic jams. It seems that we have a fast pace.
Huangguoshu walked for a whole day, and was very tired at night when he came back. He thought that he would go to Xiaoqikong Scenic Spot the next morning, so he didn't go far to eat, so he settled in Huijinxingli City. There is a shop on the 6th floor called Guailufan. The online reviews are quite high, the price is not expensive, and the taste must be good. So we went straight to the point and ordered Weilu rice, which looked like Lao Ganma’s fried rice was a bit spicy, so I couldn’t taste the taste of Weilu at all. Later, I found out that you can order non-spicy, but the order At that time, the waiter didn't ask us, and some shredded cabbage, egg skin and sausage were served on top of the Guailu rice, all of which were not spicy and delicious. In addition, I also ordered rose ice powder, glutinous rice cakes, fried noodles, and prickly pear juice. The reason for ordering fried noodles is because Tutu can't eat such a spicy Weilu rice, and there is nothing to eat.
DAY4: Thursday 9/23 Libo
1. Content: 1-day tour group of Libo Xiaoqikong Scenic Spot - in-depth tour
2. Transportation: Depart from Old Passenger Station at 6:30
3. Meals: group meals Zhaishang delicacies-beef pot in clear soup
4. Accommodation: Qian Huan Yue Xuan Pavilion, East Gate of Libo-Xiaoqikong Scenic Area (not recommended)
The next day is the most tiring day in the whole itinerary. We are going to visit the most beautiful Libo Xiaoqikong Scenic Spot in Guizhou. We will gather at 06:20 in the morning, we need to get up at 5:30, and we have to pack up, check out, store our luggage, and then drag the trolley case to the tourist distribution center. Tutu reported a one-day tour group. It is too inconvenient to go to Libo by yourself. You need to take a car to Longdongbao Airport, and then take a car to Libo County at the passenger transport center there, and then arrive For the scenic spot, it is better to go directly to the scenic spot with a group from the vicinity of the hotel, and it also includes scenic spot tickets and lunch. The only disadvantage is that you get up too early. When we went out, it was completely dark, and it wasn't until half past six that it started to get light. In fact, we don’t need to prepare breakfast in advance at all. Later, we found a row of breakfast stalls at the entrance of the distribution center. Although we had already had breakfast, we looked at the cages of buns. They were so cute, so we bought another cage. Goubuli buns, 8 for only 8 yuan. The small shops in the distribution center also opened early, where you can buy all kinds of food and beverages.
It was only 10:30 when we arrived in Libo County for lunch. Although the meal price was 20 yuan per person, eight dishes, one soup, and one table for eight people were quite good. There were two meat dishes, chicken and fish, and the rest were vegetarian dishes. , and a tomato scrambled egg.
After dinner, it was only 11:30 when we arrived at Xiaoqikong Scenic Spot in Libo. Tutuchu stored the trolley case at the west gate of the scenic spot. In fact, the east gate is closer to where we live, but the west gate is an expressway, and general tourist buses are parked in the west gate parking lot. The Ximen Visitor Center has free storage. The storage is self-service by scanning the code. You can send trolley boxes, but the number of large boxes is limited. Fortunately, there were no people on the day we came, so the boxes are not at all nervous. Xiaoqikong Scenic Area is narrow and long, and the itinerary in the scenic area is full of sightseeing cars and buses. It takes more than half an hour to drive from one end to the other for more than 20 kilometers, and there are eighteen bends in the mountain road.
Our first stop is Wolongtan Scenic Area. The green mountains and clear water are a bit like Jiuzhaigou. The water is blue and crystal clear. After taking pictures, we walked to Wolongtan Waterfall. The waterfall looks a bit fake, because the semi-circular stone waterfall looks like the landscaping of a five-star hotel. If it is natural, it should not be so uniform. After Wolongtan, there are two options, one is to go boating at Yuanyang Lake, and the other is to go to Cuigu Waterfall. Yuanyang Lake is at an independent location at the top and needs to be taken by car. The boating is kayaking. We have limited time, kayaking is also very tiring, and the weather is also very hot, so we chose to go directly to Cuigu Waterfall. Cuigu Waterfall is the most interesting place in the whole scenic spot. Although this waterfall is only a small strip in the mountain, it is really insignificant compared with the mountains and rivers in Guizhou, but there is a beach here, and the stones in the beach are very Gentle, the water is very clear and shallow. People took off their shoes and went in to play in the water. Tutu has been prepared for a long time, and brought a pair of crocks plastic slippers, which is a magic weapon for playing in the water! Xiao Mochu took a shortcut on the water.
The next scenic spot is the water forest. I thought that the water forest can also play with water, but it is not. The water forest is a forest covered by water. It is amazing that many trees grow out of the water. We are walking on small stone piers like plum blossom piles. It is a bit difficult to walk. The water forest needs to walk about 1.2 kilometers. After walking out of the water forest, it is the strangest scenic spot in the scenic spot, Broken Bridge and Waterfall! The water of the waterfall flows down from the mountain. Entering a dry tree trunk, this thin trunk is just horizontal, so the waterfall leaps into the river through this trunk, forming a spectacle. What a miracle of nature!
There is also a 68-level waterfall in the back. The clear waterfall is like a wide ribbon, flowing down from the mountain, with a full 68 levels, which lasts for more than one kilometer. This section of the road can only be walked, and it is also very worthwhile. Fortunately, we came from the west gate, and walking from west to east is downhill. On the way, I passed the Laya Waterfall. The water stopped directly and sprayed out in the middle of the mountain. It made the passers-by wet, but it was very interesting and felt like a water park.
Finally, there is the Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge. This is also the place where major tourist groups gather, so there are very, very many people. And when I got here, I had stopped cooking, and I was so tired that I was so hot that I didn't want to take pictures. When you arrive at the Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge, you can go back to the west gate directly by car. We went with the group, but we didn’t go back with the group, so we bid farewell to the tour guide and went directly to the east gate to the Daqikong Scenic Spot. The big and small Qikong scenic spots are joint tickets, so there is no need to buy additional tickets. He does not need to come out in a large scenic spot as a whole.
Daqikong Scenic Area must take a boat, first take to the middle of a scenic spot, and then walk about one kilometer back. There are no other scenic spots along the way that are not worth walking. Taking a boat can not only save energy, but also enjoy the scenery on the lake. The Daqikong scenic spot is not big, much smaller than the Xiaoqikong, and it can be completed in about one to two hours. Why is he called Daqikong? The big seven holes are majestic and majestic, and several landscapes are very grand, while the small seven holes are very beautiful and have a special style. Therefore, both scenic spots are very worth visiting. If you only visit Xiaoqikong with the group, it is really a castrated version of the landscape.
The main scenic spots of Daqikong are Tiansheng Bridge, Horrible Gorge, Tianmen Cave and Yaofeng Cave. There are not many scenic spots but they are all majestic and magnificent. Horrible Gorge is a plank road with protruding rocks, so only one person can pass, some places drip, and some places need to walk sideways. Tianmen is the most beautiful, like a big screen with a Tianmen hole on it. This cave is very high, covering the sky and the sun, so there must be extraordinary experts or demons here! Yaofeng Cave is like a huge bat cave. On a very high rock, the mouth of the hole points straight to the ground. People can't actually get into the cave, but there is a cool breeze below the entrance of the cave, so this is a cave with evil winds.
We came out of Daqikong at about 5 o'clock. We first took a car to the west gate to pick up our luggage, and then returned to the east gate. It was a bit late to go out, so I greeted the driver and the driver at the door, and continued to board the car after picking up the luggage. Here I would like to give a big praise to the master of Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. They are really super nice and the service is very humanized!
In contrast, the hotel in Xiaoqikong is not very satisfactory. Seeing the good reviews from Ctrip, I booked Qianhuan Hotel. Although the environmental facilities are not bad, the location is not good. It is not convenient to go to the innermost part of Buyi Town, far from the east gate. The service is also very average, not as good as Ctrip's evaluation. Although the lady proprietress helped carry the luggage upstairs, she had to move it by herself when she went downstairs, and she contacted the lady proprietress in advance to tell her that she was not driving, but she was carrying luggage, and she did not drive to pick up at the gate of the scenic spot. We, instead let ourselves go through. Daqikong was very tired after coming out, and he was too tired to walk. In the end, we walked a long way with our trolley suitcases to arrive at this hotel, and we regretted it halfway. The proprietress just walked to the intersection near the hotel to wait for us and helped us get a trolley case. When we left the next day, we carried our bags and walked a lot before we reached the place where we boarded the car. I didn't even move my luggage down from the 3rd floor or drive a battery car to deliver it. In the evening, I ate beef hot pot in clear soup nearby, and I have been suffering from diarrhea. Ask the proprietress if she has any medicine for diarrhea? Said there was no medicine, just told us there was a pharmacy behind the gong. The pharmacy is far away from the hotel, so we carried our bags and suitcases and walked for about ten minutes to find the pharmacy. The location of the pharmacy is very hard to find. In fact, there is still a distance from the back of the gong. The proprietress Nor lead us the way. To say that the hotel is good, it is to upgrade the room for us. But I called and consulted before booking the hotel, and found out that the price had been raised the next day after the consultation, so the price of the room I booked was actually the price of the upgraded room that I was optimistic about. The room looked clean, but when I slept in the early morning, I developed a rash on my body.
Originally, I just wrote down my living experience, which can also help the merchant to do better, but the response of the merchant in the comment area made me very sad. The store didn’t come to pick us up. I don’t blame the store, because it’s not included in the service. I just think the road is a bit far. I checked at the entrance of the scenic spot and it’s 800 meters away. It’s inconvenient for us to walk so far with our bags. The store The service attitude is also relatively cold. I have already left the hotel and will not stay again. There is no need to respond to the cynicism of the store, but to give you an objective reference with real experience.
Buyi Town is next to the Xiaoqikong East Gate Scenic Area. It is a relatively large community, and all the relocated households from Xiaoqikong live in it. In the evening, I ate beef clear soup hot pot in Zhaishang Yao, Buyi Township. The beef is a bit old, but the service is good. But I have diarrhea several times after eating. I don’t know if the beef is not cooked or the cold dishes are not fresh.
In addition, the tour guides of Huangguoshu and Xiaoqikong reported on this trip to Guizhou are very good. Li Min is here in Huangguoshu, and Zhang Hongying is a fresh graduate from Libo Xiaoqikong. Although he is not very skilled, he has an attitude Very nice and responsible.
DAY5: 9/24 Friday Xijiang
1. Content: Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village
2. Traffic: 8:00 Libo-Xijiang through train
3. Meals: Snack Meat Skewers - Ciba - Fried Noodles Xiyue Huotang Miaowei Restaurant
4. Accommodation: Miaozhai-Blossoming Pinellia Panorama Villa
From Libo Xiaoqikong East Gate to Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village, it is really convenient to take the scenic through train. Tutu booked a ticket for the through train at 8 o'clock the next day. The bus master will call us one night in advance to confirm, and will call us 15 minutes in advance the next morning, and will tell us not to worry. Depart at 8:00, arrive at Libo County Bus Station around 8:30 to pick up another group of guests, and then stay for 20 minutes from 08:50 to 9:00 before departing for Qianhu Miao Village in Xijiang. The journey from Libo to Miao Village is quite long, and it takes three and a half hours to drive. The master will stop at a rest stop in the middle, about 20 minutes, and then continue to drive to Miao Village. The Miao Village stops at the west gate and the north gate respectively, so you need to confirm with the hotel in advance whether to get off at the west gate or the north gate, because the two gates of the west gate and the north gate are not connected to each other, and you need to walk more than 1 km, and there is no car Can take.
Arrive at the hotel in Miao Village at about 12 o'clock. Although you get off at Ximen, in fact, you have to pass through a commercial street about 500 meters into the scenic spot, so you need to carry your luggage. Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village is located in a valley, and the traffic is very inconvenient. After entering the scenic spot, you need to take a large bus to a transfer station, and then change to the battery car in the scenic spot to the viewing platform. If you have a car from the viewing platform, you can go to No. 1 Fengyu Bridge. On the way, I found that the rabbit’s bag was left on the luggage rack when the bus got off the bus, so I quickly called the master. Fortunately, the master did not leave the north gate for Libo until 2:30 in the afternoon. At this time, Xiao Mochu volunteered to go to the north gate to get his bag, and returned to the hotel after traveling for more than an hour. I must give a big praise. The weather in Miao Village is still very hot, and Xiaomochu is already drenched.
Tutu booked Blooming Pinellia Panorama Villa 268, which is a high-end hotel in Xijiang. The room is really clean, and it is separated from wet and dry. There is also a private viewing platform in front of the hotel, where you can see the scenery of Miao Village on the opposite bank to the north. The disadvantage is that it is too high, you need to walk many, many, many steps, it feels like climbing 10 floors. We went to the intersection of Mochizuki and called the boss to come down to help with the luggage. The boss's service attitude is quite good. He said that the hotel originally had other helpers, but these two days happened to be the busy rice harvesting time, so they all went to harvest the rice. He was busy all by himself and was exhausted. Most of the hotels here are not separated from wet and dry. They are said to be high-end hotels, but they are actually the standard of express hotels in the city. There are comments on the Internet that if you go to the viewing platform of this hotel, you don’t need to go to the viewing platform of the entire scenic spot, because the hotel’s viewing platform has a better view. In fact, otherwise, the viewing platform of the scenic spot is definitely the best location, but the angle is different. The viewing platform of the scenic spot looks at the other end from one end of the river, and you can clearly see the rows of Miao villages on both sides, while the viewing platform of the hotel looks from the highest point on the south bank to the north bank, and the scenery you see is different. Next time, if I book a hotel again, I probably won’t choose a hotel that is so high, because the hotel is too high to climb, I’m really tired, I don’t want to come down after I go up, and I don’t want to go up again after I come down, or I just book on the viewing platform, This way you can get on the shuttle bus directly. It is most convenient to book near No. 1 Fengyu Bridge. There are many places to eat, drink and have fun near No. 1 Fengyu Bridge. The other end is an idyllic sightseeing area where you can play in the water. The next morning, the moment the window was opened, Qingshan Yaozhai came into view. At this moment, I felt that this hotel was worth it.
The Miao Village is not big, and the route is actually very simple. Although it is called Qianhu Miao Village, it is actually only a place to eat, drink and have fun on both sides of the river. On the mountain, it is either a residence or an inn. There is nothing to visit. Chatted with the hotel owner, the boss pointed us to a route, first go to No. 1 Fengyu Bridge, walk across the river to Gage Ancient Lane, then go to the museum, and go back to No. 5 Fengyu Bridge. The whole Miao Village is a Baishui River, from No. 1 Fengyu Bridge to No. 7 Fengyu Bridge. After No. 5 Fengyu Bridge is very remote, there is no need to go up it. If you are fast, you can finish shopping in one or two hours, and if you are slow, half a day is more than enough. It should be noted that there are various ethnic performances in Gagu Lane, which end at five o'clock in the afternoon, so if you want to visit, you should do it as early as possible. The museum is about some folk customs and utensils of the Miao people, you can learn about them. There were no people there when we went, and you can take pictures on the second floor, but the scenery is average. The performance in Gage Ancient Alley is also very simple. A row of grandpas and grandmas sit in a shop and sing ancient songs, which is called Gugetang. Another store is performing Miaoxiu live. Miaoxiu is actually relatively rough, and laymen can't see anything special about it. The batik craft workshop is dyeing cloth. There are several large dye vats at the entrance of the shop. Clothes are sold inside the shop. There are many clothes but the styles are also very common, and the price is very expensive. A silk batik skirt costs 1280. The proprietress turned out to be from the Northeast! The Lusheng Field is a big square, and there are many Miao people walking around there accompanied by the music. This dance is not beautiful, it is really just walking around in circles, and the rabbits followed the team to imitate it. Bundle. There are so many places to take photos here, whether it is a young girl or a woman in her 60s or 70s, they all feel the Miao costume travel photography.
The No. 5 Wind and Rain Bridge is a vegetable market, and there are many small vendors selling fruits and vegetables in the vegetable market. There are also various food stalls along the road. Tutu bought a sweet glutinous rice cake, a salty glutinous rice cake, and two cups of iced bayberry juice at the old lady's booth. Both the glutinous rice cake and bayberry juice cost only 5 yuan, while the bayberry juice in other places in the scenic area sold for 15 yuan. At this time, I saw many children after school, and they all ran to a stall at the door to buy fried noodles, because elementary school students did not have mobile phones, and all they used were banknotes. Locals pay 2 yuan and 3 yuan to buy fried noodles. 2 yuan is not too full, and 3 yuan is enough to fill a large bowl. Tourists will be charged 5 yuan. Chu saw other children saying that I want 2 yuan fried noodles, so he also said, I also want 2 yuan fried noodles, and the proprietress had no choice but to sell it to him. Since it is sold to elementary school students, the fried noodles are slightly spicy, a bit like Xinjiang spicy, which is very suitable for the taste of rabbits. The business is so good, many locals buy it, presumably this fried noodles is really a must. There are many resident passenger cars driving in the scenic area. Residents are free to take the car, and it looks very similar to our sightseeing car, but tourists cannot take it. Tutu also bought two large green kiwis at the vegetable market. The ones he picked were already ripe. They only cost 2 yuan, which is very cheap.
It is best to go up to the viewing platform around six o'clock, so that you can see the scenery during the day, and wait another half an hour to see the scenery lit up at night. The small traffic in the scenic spot is five yuan per trip, and it is obviously not enough to include four times in the ticket. Because there is another transfer, four times are only enough to go to and from the hotel from the entrance of the scenic spot. There is also a performance hall, which performs at two o'clock every afternoon. It was too late for the rabbit to rush over. In addition, at the gate of Gage Ancient Alley, there is an old woman who cuts pork belly to make skewers on the spot. It costs 1 yuan a skewer. The taste of salt and pepper is very delicious, and the meat can be seen, so it is very fresh. I still want to eat after eating! Other places in Miao Village also sell a skewer for one yuan, but some meat is no longer fresh at first glance.
You can play in the water in the rural area. When we passed by, the farmers were cutting rice, and some ears of wheat had not yet come to harvest. There is a company team building, fishing in fish ponds. The fish pond is very dirty, full of mud, and the fish cannot be seen, so a bamboo net bag is used to buckle it, and then the hand is stretched into the net bag to feel if there is any fish. The bottom of the fish pond is also soil, so after touching it like this, the water is pitch black and very dirty. Fishing in the water costs 30 yuan per person. The fish you touch can be taken away at 20 yuan per catty. You can also pay a processing fee and process it on the spot. The water in the upstream of the river in the pastoral sightseeing area is relatively clear, so we can go down to play in the water. Since I didn't bring slippers when I came down from the hotel on the mountain, it was not easy to walk. The water was very cold, and it froze within a few steps. There is also a big white goose and three black ducks swimming freely in the water, pattering back and forth on the shore.
For dinner, Tutu ate the Xiyue Huotang Miaowei Restaurant, a group-buying 108 set meal and two 12 yuan drinks. The set meal has fish in sour soup. You can choose spicy or not spicy. The spicy one is red soup, and the non-spicy one is white soup. In fact, it is made with rice vinegar. There were Shanghainese at other tables who said that we wanted non-spicy dishes, but the non-spicy ones had no taste and were very bland. Although the soup was very fresh, there was no flavor in the fish. The Shanghai uncles and aunts at the next table couldn't help it anymore, and asked the waiter if there was soy sauce. There are also bracken fried bacon and Miaowang wild vegetables in the set meal. Stir-fried bacon with bracken is very delicious. The spicy meat is very tender, with a balance of fat and thin, and the fern is also very tender and fragrant. Miaowang wild vegetables are similar to basil vegetables, which are refreshing and refreshing. The fish in sour soup also comes with tofu, vegetables and bean sprouts. It can be like a hot pot, and you can put it down whenever you want. The boss also presented a pot of sweet rice wine, about ten degrees. Carp is a bit thorny, but it can be eaten slowly. It is commendable that the fish is very fresh, and it can be seen that it is a live-killed fish. The boss is from the Dong nationality, and the staff is from the Miao nationality. The boss is very kind, with a high emotional intelligence and considerate service. Small profits but quick turnover and good taste, no wonder this store ranks first in popularity!

The morning air in Miao Village is really fresh, but unfortunately we are going to Zhenyuan early the next morning. In order to catch up with the two-day tour of Zhenyuan and Fanjing Mountain on the weekend. Others came from Guiyang, but we joined the group from Zhenyuan, which can save more than two hours of travel, and after visiting Fanjing Mountain, we can directly return to Guiyang with the car, killing two birds with one stone, and the efficiency is extremely high. Since we didn't book a through train from Xijiang to Zhenyuan, we had to go back and forth. I booked a carpool with Ctrip. The default location is Kaili South Station. You can choose to change to Kaili Railway Station. It is very convenient. The driver picked us up at the west gate at 8:30 and drove to Kaili Railway Station at 09:45. Then we waited for the train from Kaili to Zhenyuan at 10:30. This train station is also a highlight. I haven’t taken a green leather train for a long time, and I have never felt such a simple train station. It makes me feel like I’m back in the 60s! There is no air-conditioning in the train station, and it relies entirely on fans. The overall decoration is also in the style of the 1960s and 1970s, or it may have been like this before liberation. There are also two small shops in the waiting hall. The small shops also have a sense of history. The doors of the shops are very small and simple. Starting from Kaili, it takes one and a half hours to reach Zhenyuan with one stop.
There are several hotel chains in Zhenyuan whose names attract Tutu, especially the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau, which seems to be an Escort Bureau in a novel, but in fact it never existed in history. Among them, the Daheguan Inn of Zhenyuan Escort Bureau has the best location. Get out of the Tutu Railway Station and take the No. 1 bus. After ten minutes, get off at the Dagongchang Station and you will arrive at the inn within a few steps. The foyer of the inn is very grandly decorated, if it is an escort agency, it must be a high-end escort agency. Choose the room facing the river. There are beauty chairs and leisure tables and chairs on the balcony. From the balcony, you can see the Zhusheng Bridge, next to Shiping Mountain, and opposite to Qinglong Cave. In short, there are no shortcomings. It is said that it is a hotel with a high number of repeat customers. Of course, the price is not cheap either. In Zhenyuan, where hundreds of yuan hotels abound, the room facing the river costs 253, and it is still the off-season, so I can only say that you get what you pay for!
You can also rent a battery car here, 60 yuan a day. The battery car shop will drive the battery car to the hotel, and then use it directly. Since our itinerary is short and the attractions are all within walking distance, there is no car rental. If you stay for two more days, it is recommended to rent a car! Zhenyuan Ancient Town is also called Taiji Ancient Town. The Wuyang River runs through it, dividing the entire ancient city into two halves of an S shape. Looking down from the top of the mountain, it looks like a Taiji Eight Diagrams array. What a beautiful place!
Zhenyuan Ancient Town is more powerful than Miao Village. And most of them are local residents, full of breath of life, tourism is only a part of the ancient town, and the commercial atmosphere is not as serious as Miao Village. The houses are not stilted buildings, but many are buildings, which looks like a very big town! Walk into the alley, turn seven turns and climb up. There are Fu Family Courtyard and Yuan's Tofu Old Store on the mountain, and other historically protected buildings have been converted into inns. The Fu Family Courtyard can be visited, 20 yuan per person including explanations by descendants. The old Yuanshi tofu store is really hard to find! You can't find it without navigation. After all, the aroma of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley, and many tourists come here just because of its reputation. The price is cheap, the taste is good, who can not love it? Tutu ordered a dish of buckwheat 48, iced tofu nao 5, sweet wine glutinous rice cake 12, chicken shredded rice noodles 16. The taste is beyond imagination! The first dish of braised pork is actually braised pork with dried plums, but the quality of the meat is very good, sliced very thin, balanced in fat and thin, and a big bowl, which reminds me of Zhiweiguan’s gold medal braised pork. Tofu nao can be added by yourself, sweet and salty at will. Sweet wine boiled Ciba, what a big bowl. The shredded chicken rice noodles are very delicious, so delicious that you can't stop! After the rice noodles are left for a while, the juice will disappear, and all the juice will swell into the rice noodles, and after the taste is absorbed by the rice noodles, it will taste even better!
The most tiring scenic spot in the afternoon is Shiping Mountain. Originally I wanted to go to Qinglong Cave, because Qinglong Cave can climb high and look far away, which is equivalent to a pavilion with a height of 4-5 floors. You can see the S-shaped protrusion on the opposite side of Wuyang River, but this is incomparable with the scenery of Shiping Mountain. Shiping Mountain is the commanding height of Zhenyuan, and there is also the ancient city wall of the Great Wall on it. If you go to Shiping Mountain, there is no need to go to Qinglong Cave. Tickets for Qinglong Cave are 58, and Shiping Mountain is only 23.5. If you buy a ticket, you will go all the way up the hillside. It is estimated that there are 20 floors in height, and you can only rely on walking. There is neither a cableway nor an elevator. After several days of training, Tutu has greatly improved his martial arts and reached the top of the mountain in one leap. Xiao Mochu crawled slowly behind, out of breath. It took about half an hour to finally climb to the top of the mountain. On the top of the mountain, you can clearly see the S shape of Wuyang River and the whole picture of Zhenyuan Ancient Town. However, there are too many trees on the mountain, and the photos taken are not good. Those beautiful pictures of Zhenyuan Ancient Town should all be taken with drones, right?
Zhenyuan is also the main scenic spot, and you can visit it all in one afternoon. If you can stay for two more days, you can slowly savor the customs of the ancient town. There are many people eating by the river at night. Such a cool summer night is the heyday of food stalls. Tutu bought lotus seeds, which are very sweet and fresh, and 2 for 5 yuan is less. I also bought August fruit, which was not very tasty. The seeds inside were too big, like a banana wrapped in a large piece of cantaloupe seeds. Just curious, let’s taste it!
The rest of our group members lived in the Xinlan Inn on the other side of the river. It looked like a small hotel from the outside. The reaction of the group members was very average, so I chose to book the hotel by myself. But the disadvantage is that you need to run a long way to meet up the next morning.
DAY7: 9/26 Sunday Fanjingshan
1. Content: Zhenyuan + Fanjing Mountain with a 2-day tour of Fanjing Mountain
2. Transportation: tourist minibus + tourist bus
3. Meals: scenic snacks, group meals
4. Accommodation: Guiyang-Old Passenger Station Yaster Hotel
Departing at 7 o'clock, we were out at 06:45. I couldn't get a taxi. It turned out that the taxi hadn't gone to work yet, and the other small shops here were also closed, not even a place to buy breakfast. After walking for about ten minutes to reach the entrance of the inn, we all took a sightseeing bus to the distribution center and then changed buses. The sightseeing bus looks like a bus, and it stops at the door of the inn of the group members, which is quite convenient. Driving through the core area of the ancient city, I saw many scenes of life. Many elementary school students happened to go to school in the morning, and they all sat on the side of the road eating fried noodles. There are also some vegetable markets and breakfast stalls, which open earlier than those in the ancient city, mainly for residents. I like such a simple life atmosphere, as if I have returned to my childhood, pure and happy! This is the ancient city scene I want to experience the most!
It was only 07:15 when we arrived at the tourist distribution center, and we boarded the tourist minibus that had been waiting for us for a long time. A total of 15 group members set off to Fanjing Mountain. We arrived at Fanjing Mountain in about two and a half hours, but we needed to queue up for a sightseeing bus. It seemed that everyone was going to Fanjing Mountain at about the same time. We waited for about half an hour before we got into the car, and then changed the cableway. The cableway plus sightseeing car is a total of 180 yuan, which can't be saved, otherwise you have to climb for four or five hours to reach the top of the mountain. This ropeway is the longest ropeway I have ever been on! After getting off the cableway, you still need to climb the mountain road for 30 to 40 minutes to reach the mushroom cloud. If you can't climb, you can also sit on a sliding pole, and the fee is based on the weight. Like a rabbit, if the weight is between 50 kg and 65 kg, it costs more than 600 yuan per person, and 400 for less than 50 kg. We have a medium The young women's groupmates are sitting on the slider.
The mushroom cloud is much smaller than imagined, it is a small mushroom cloud, not as grand as in the photo, it seems that it is really a lie. But the stones here are very magical, many of them are black stones, which seem to have been weathered for thousands of years, and look like historical monuments. On the right side of the mushroom cloud is the old Jinding, and on the left is the new Jinding. The old Jinding is the tallest with a height of more than 2,600 meters. Few people climb it now. It is probably because it is too high. There are more people climbing the new Jinding, and there is still a queue . New Golden Summit is also called Hongyun Golden Summit. The best place to take pictures of the new Golden Summit is on a viewing platform opposite the Mushroom Cloud. There are drinks and snacks on the viewing platform, all of which are very delicious. We bought duck legs for 18, and sour plum soup for 15. Bought 10 sausages to eat. The price is acceptable, after all, it is not easy to carry it up! Eat and drink enough to have the strength to climb the mountain.
I don’t know the true face of Lushan Mountain, just because I am in this mountain. Although I can’t see the appearance of the new Jinding when I climb to the top of the new Jinding, we still want to feel that we will be the top of the mountain and see the small mountains. After all, come here once It's not easy, and you can't leave regrets. Unexpectedly, climbing the new golden summit is not tiring at all, because you need to queue up, and the climb up is very slow, you need to climb up by hand pulling a cableway, a bit like rock climbing, so the people below are waiting in a long line , It is not tiring to feel climbing for the first time, because you have to wait three times to take one step.
The road up the mountain is steep. Some places can only be passed by one person, and it is very steep. You can only step on half of your claws, and you can only pull the chain with your arms. Some people can't climb halfway and come down directly. It takes an hour to an hour and a half to take pictures up and down. When I climbed to the top of the mountain, the scenery was still very good, with mountains on one side and green mountains. The other side is full of clouds and mist, and nothing can be seen. Hongyun Jinding is the only resort where the three religions are integrated into one, and it seems that everyone wants a share of the good place. Going down the mountain is still very fast and easy, but the neck is a little tired after looking down at the steps for a long time.
When I was climbing the mountain today, the introduction on both sides stated that there are various animals on the mountain, including black bears, golden monkeys, etc., but I didn't see them. When going down the mountain, I saw a macaque walking slowly on the side of the road, fluffy. We are fortunate that the weather is very good today, the sun is scorching, and there are some clouds but not many. When I was doing the guide before, I saw someone said that there was a heavy fog on the mountain, and I was lonely after seeing it, so I was always a little worried. The tour guide said that he had been to Fanjing Mountain three times before, and all three times it was windy or rainy, or both. Only this time was good. Thanks to everyone, it shows that we are destined to be with Fanjing Mountain.
Fan Jingshan's eco-car also takes 20 minutes to ride, and the mountain road has 18 bends. It feels very difficult to drive. Whenever there is an oncoming car approaching, you need to stop and give way. I think it is still very dangerous. If I were to drive with so many hills, I would definitely not be able to hold it. Many people say that Guizhou is suitable for self-driving travel. It is true that each scenic spot is very scattered, and self-driving is the most time-saving and labor-saving option. However, there are many mountain roads in Guizhou, and it is not easy to drive by yourself. It is recommended to leave the professional work to professional people, and let the master who often drives on this road drive. After returning from Fanjing Mountain, we drove for four or five hours, and the driver was very tired, so he hurriedly stopped to smoke at the rest stop. If it is our case, even if you are here for the first time but want to travel in depth, you can sign up for many one-day tour groups, plus a combination of off-group itineraries. On the return car, I also found that other senior travelers also went to the destination to join the group.
This is probably the most complicated itinerary I have arranged for a self-guided tour, after all, it will take 13 days to come out. But if you think about it, you can travel freely abroad, let alone at home? Back in Guiyang, the bus of our group stops opposite the tourist distribution center near the hotel, and it is very convenient to go back. After checking in at the hotel, we looked for a place for a foot bath. We wanted to go to a blind massage, but when we walked downstairs, the environment was a bit messy, so we went to Lindu Liangzi opposite. Liangzi Lindu is different from the Liangzi foot bath I went to two days ago. The young ladies here are all dressed very beautifully, like Sailor Moon! But the technique is still very professional, but the time is a bit shortened. The price of foot baths in Guiyang is not cheaper than that in Shanghai, and even more expensive, mainly because tourists here travel a lot.
DAY8: 9/27 Monday Qingyan Ancient Town
1. Content: Qingyan Ancient Town
2. Traffic: Huaguoyuan Road 210 Railway Station Road 203
3. Meals: Jinbixuan Qingyan snacks
4. Accommodation: Guiyang-Old Passenger Station Yaster Hotel
Ended the trip to Qiandongnan. Tutuchu needs to take a good rest, so he only arranged for Qingyan Ancient Town on Monday. I slept until I woke up naturally, it was already ten o'clock. At this time, I learned a sad news that the 2-day tour of the Maling River Canyon and Shuangwanfeng Forest Scenic Area originally scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday was cancelled, because it was the off-season for tourism, and there were only two of us in a group. Originally, the merchant contacted me and wanted to fool me, saying that I should cancel by myself and that they can give us a full refund. I went directly to Ctrip instead of negotiating with the merchant. Since there is an agreement on tourism, then follow the spirit of the contract and follow the agreement. If we do not go in breach of the contract, we still need to lose money. If the travel agency cancels the group in breach of the contract, we will pay 40% according to the notification within 1-3 days before departure. Sure enough, after I asked Ctrip to help me coordinate, the account was credited on the same day, so the group reporting to Ctrip is still very guaranteed.
Now that Wednesday’s itinerary was cancelled, Tutu hurriedly arranged a new itinerary. First, the Zhijin Cave on Tuesday was changed to Thursday, and then the trip to Maotai Town on Friday was changed to Wednesday. Finally, Tuesday was scheduled to go to Wanfeng. Train tickets, long-distance bus tickets and scenic spot tickets for Forest Scenic Area and Marin and Canyon. Because Tuesday is the last day of September 30th, it is estimated that the return journey will be very congested, and the trip to Zhijin Cave will return to Guiyang at two o'clock in the afternoon. It was originally planned to go to Maotai Town on October 1, and there will be a lot of people, and the road will be very congested. Of course the hardest thing has to be done in advance, Tuesday is the most challenging day, so move forward at top speed! The two-day tour of Wanfenglin was originally scheduled to be directly compressed into one day, and the Wanfeng Lake scenic spot, which is far away and has low ornamental value, is directly omitted. It saves the need to carry luggage and check out when going back and forth to Guiyang on the same day. In this way, one day can be spared to go to Qianlingshan Park and Jiaxiu Tower.
Qingyan Ancient Town is very famous, the photos are beautiful, and the food is said to be delicious, so I must go there. Tickets were booked online, but the journey to get there was inconvenient. Originally, the Qianshuang bus had a direct train to the scenic spot. It was 15 yuan from the train station to the ancient city of Qingyan, which took about an hour. But I found that there is no through train on weekdays, so I can only take the 210 or 203 road to Qingyan. Bus 210 usually runs every half an hour, but at noon it takes an hour to wait. On the handheld bus, we found that the departure time was 12:30, so we took a taxi to the terminal of Huaguoyuan Twin Towers No. 210 with a hungry stomach. We wanted to eat nearby, but we arrived before 12:00. And there are houses being built all around, and there is nothing. Tutu asked the online car-hailing driver to drive through the terminal, then drive to an intersection in front, and then cross the road to Huaguoyuan Business Building. When taking a taxi, Tutu almost told the master to go to Huaguo Mountain, and then he was stunned after saying the word Huaguo.
It turns out that this is the flower orchard! Many places in the new urban area are still under construction. There are many high-rise residences in Huaguoyuan, and there are many restaurants and snack bars on the ground floor, and they all look quite new and clean. There are also many white-collar workers eating at noon. I found a mutton noodle shop. It only cost 20 yuan for 12 mutton noodles with miscellaneous or meat. The car was very empty, and it took more than an hour and a half to drive to Qingyan, and there were not many people in total. It is not very convenient to swipe the card on the bus here. You cannot use Alipay directly. You need to download an APP or small program first, and you have to charge money in it before you can swipe. Tutu tried it out, and found that Shanghai’s public bus card can be used, and can be swiped twice in a row, and Xiao Mochu’s ticket was also swiped. All-in-one card in hand, the bus card is really awesome!
When I arrived at Qingyan Ancient Town, I was somewhat disappointed. The ancient town at the foot of the mountain always had a feeling of deja vu. Ciqikou in Chongqing is very similar to the ancient town of Komachi-tong in Kamakura near Tokyo, Japan, and it is also a bit similar to the ancient towns around Shanghai, except that Qingyan Ancient Town has no river. The intricate streets of the ancient town are lined with snack bars and small commodity shops, and the content is also very homogeneous. The food is braised pig's feet, ice powder and cake porridge. The shops are full of small commodities and gadgets from Yiwu, and some Shooting shops in Hanfu or Miaofu, so there is actually nothing to visit.
When we came in, there happened to be a Ctrip tour group, so we followed the tour guide around Qingyan Ancient Town and went to four scenic spots, mainly the museum about Miao customs, the former residence of Zhao Yijiong, the number one scholar, and the former residence of Zhou Enlai's father. The Former Residence of the Number One Scholar has a short film about the number one scholar exam, which is very interesting. Every time you enter a scenic spot, you will stamp a stamp on the ticket. Then we went to the city wall of the north gate to have a look. There was a miniature Great Wall connecting the city wall nearby. Clothes were rented and photographed on the tower.
Speaking of the food in Qingyan Ancient Town, I was looking forward to it before going. I wanted to go to Xiejia Centennial Cake, but it was closed on Monday. That's right, a century-old store is not short of money, it's just so willful! I went to Jinbixuan, another Internet celebrity shop, the store is not big, only enough to fit three tables, and there are seats on the second floor. Many locals come here to eat, presumably the price is reasonable and the dishes are good. I ordered a 58 yuan set meal, including the signature braised pig's feet, cake porridge, tofu balls, potato cakes, and rose ice powder. The weather is very hot, I also ordered mung bean soup. Among them, only cake porridge is particularly delicious. Braised pork knuckles are completely incomparable with those in Jiangnan. The only salty flavor without sugar is roasted pork knuckles in soy sauce. The tofu balls are quite satisfactory, the potato cakes are a bit oily, and the most unpalatable is the mung bean soup. It turned out that a few mung beans were put in the brown sugar water of the ice powder. The mung beans were neither crispy nor rotten, and the ice powder and mung bean soup were very sweet. I asked the store to add a bowl of ice cubes to make it better. The people of Guizhou eat very heavy taste! The sweet ones are very sweet, the salty ones are very salty, and the oily ones are very oily.
We saw a woman with a baby in a small alley, squatting on the side of the road selling popsicles, which were placed in ice bags. Also being a mother, I found it really not easy, so I bought an old popsicle 3 and a mung bean popsicle 4. The old popsicle is actually a salt water popsicle. The mung bean popsicle is very delicious. Unexpectedly, the whole mung bean popsicle is made of mung bean and it is very crispy. This is the real heavy mung bean popsicle! In addition, I bought pork Guokui on the street. The boss has a very high EQ and is smiling. I am embarrassed not to buy it. Unexpectedly, it is really crispy and delicious, even better than the long queues of scallion pancakes in Shanghai! The drinks in the scenic area are quite expensive, basically between 10 yuan and 15 yuan. I bought a large cup of freshly squeezed coconut juice for 10 yuan, which is quite delicious.
We were stuck and went back to take the 210, but there was no trace of the car. There are a lot of 203 at the terminal station, and it also costs 3 yuan to get to the train station. It seems that there are more stops than 210, and the journey time is longer, and there is a traffic jam on the way back. In short, it is very convenient to go to Qingyan Ancient Town from Guiyang, and the cost is really very low. It is only 40 yuan to book tickets one day in advance! However, the playability and appreciation of the ancient town are really average, and the food I ate did not surprise me, not as good as I expected. But with such a great reputation, I always have to come here for a visit. I came back to buy dry food for the next day, bought pineapple buns, deluxe, and a few kiwis. I wanted to go for a massage, but after a long walk, it was full. In addition, I also found that many people in Guiyang love to eat roadside stalls, and the stall business is very prosperous, and the price is not cheap, 5 yuan for a bunch of chicken skins.
DAY9: 9/28 Tuesday Xingyi
1. Content: Wanfenglin Scenic Spot + Maling River Canyon
2. Transportation: high-speed rail + Qiancheng travel
3. Meals: restaurants near the Malinghe Canyon parking lot Panzhou high-speed railway station restaurant
4. Accommodation: Guiyang-Old Passenger Station Yaster Hotel
We got up early on Tuesday to catch the train at 07:46. Today will be the most efficient day for free travel in Guizhou! In the morning, go to Guiyang North Station to take the high-speed train to Panzhou, and then transfer to Panzhou for the 9:30 special car booked one day in advance to go to Wanfenglin Scenic Area. After visiting Wanfenglin, take a taxi to Malinghe Canyon and Maling After coming out of the river canyon, take the special car booked in advance at 17:00 to go to Panzhou Railway Station, and finally take the high-speed train back to Guiyang at 19:14, which is really a whole day.
The boss live broadcast ticket booked on Ctrip is very cost-effective, 186 for two people. The Wanfenglin Scenic Area is the first to go. It is very easy to visit the Wanfenglin Scenic Area, and the whole journey is a sightseeing car. There are a total of six viewing platforms, and each viewing platform can stop to take pictures, and then continue to board the car. It will only stay for a few minutes, and the whole journey takes only an hour. If you walk, there are seven or eight kilometers in total, so you must take a sightseeing bus! Moreover, the open sightseeing car gallops in the scenic spot, which can not only enjoy the beautiful scenery, but also is very comfortable. The scenery is all on the right side, so it is better to sit on the right side! Wanfenglin Scenic Area is very cute, with small ball-like hills and beautiful farmland, and it is very life-like, not deliberate at all. It can be called the most beautiful landscape and pastoral scenery!
The sightseeing car goes up the mountain to view the scenery from top to bottom, and it is more suitable for taking pictures. The small train only runs in the countryside, and the route is different. Small trains are more suitable for viewing rapeseed flowers. When we went, it happened to be the autumn harvest of the farmland, and the fields were already bare, so there was no need to take the small train. There are also some grandmothers in Wanfenglin Scenic Area selling their own agricultural products. You can buy some at a cheap price. There is a famous general egg fried rice in the scenic area. However, on the halfway of the last stop of the sightseeing bus, there is no village in front and no shop in the back. It is more suitable for self-driving tours to taste, and it takes a lot of walking on foot.
There is a through train from Wanfenglin Scenic Area to Malinghe Canyon, it only costs 5 yuan, but the bus schedule is hard to say, and it takes a long time to wait, it is better to take a taxi for about 40 yuan for 15 kilometers, and it will arrive in half an hour. No delay.
Different from the comfort of Wanfenglin Scenic Area, Malinghe Canyon basically has to be walked all the way. There is only one elevator on the way, which can save the need to climb steps up and down the valley. However, there are still many steps to walk in addition to this, the whole journey takes an hour and a half and it is tiring to go up and down. Seeing many elderly tourist groups walking with crutches, I really sweated for them, and finally found that they only walked 1/3 of the distance and returned.
The most beautiful part of Malinghe Canyon is of course the canyon. The canyon is very deep, and there is a clear gurgling stream flowing down the bottom. The waterfall in Malinghe Canyon is not big, but it is different from other places. There are many small waterfalls flowing down from the mountain, forming semicircular rocks one after another, like on the cliffs, holding small umbrellas. It is said that these rocks were formed 250 million years ago. The canyon and spring water are so quiet, making people feel grand and calm, like the place where the immortals in martial arts novels practice. This canyon is so deep, with rocky cliffs, it is not an ordinary light work, so naturally it is impossible to go up or down.
The valley is quiet and quiet, the stream flows long, pure and majestic, the Maling River Canyon is worthy of being the most beautiful scar on earth! In addition, there are two water curtain caves in Malinghe Canyon. In the first waterfall water curtain hole, it doesn't matter if the water is relatively small, you can go through it directly. The water in the second water curtain hole is pouring down directly, you must wear an umbrella and wear rain boots, otherwise it will be wet. Call it a torrential downpour! The steps were very slippery, and I accidentally fell at the small mill and broke my arm. Fortunately, there is alcohol and iodophor around, and the wound can be treated immediately.
The sightseeing elevator in the scenic spot first goes down to the bottom of the valley, and then returns to the original road to take it up after the tour, 30 for one-way and 40 for two-way. Or go out through another door after going down, you can save hundreds of meters, but you need to climb the steps to climb up, the road is not good and the road is very steep, so we still choose the flatter way to return, and we can also take the elevator.
It happened to be five o'clock when the Malinghe Canyon came out. The driver who called Qiancheng and said that the road was still relatively long, but he would definitely be able to catch the train. Since I had been on my way and didn't have lunch, I took advantage of this gap to look for food first. We saw several restaurants near the entrance and exit of the Maling River Canyon where you can sit and eat outside. They looked pretty clean. There were already two tables of people eating in the first restaurant. When we went over, we found that the prices were very cheap. A bowl of ice powder is 5 yuan, and a bowl of vegetarian powder is 10 yuan. We ordered two bowls of ice noodles and one bowl of vegetarian noodles. Unexpectedly, the bowls are super big. This is a big bowl of wide noodles, which is really a conscience price. Not only that, but there is also a lot of ice powder, and the taste of plain powder and ice powder is very good!
It was too early to arrive at the train station, with 45 minutes left, so I wanted to eat something more. There is only one fast food restaurant at Panzhou Railway Station, and it looks quite clean. I bought grilled sausages for 6 and cold noodles for 20. The grilled sausages are not bad, but the cold noodles are really hard to eat. They are very heavy and salty noodles. It is heavy taste. But this noodle is really expensive and unpalatable!
DAY10: 9/29 Wednesday Maotai Town
1. Content: One-day tour of Maotai Town
2. Transportation: tourist minibus
3. Meals: Winery Restaurant Guichu Beef in Sour Soup
4. Accommodation: Guiyang-Old Passenger Station Yaster Hotel
The next day is the itinerary of Maotai Town. Maotai Town is very far from Guiyang City. It takes three and a half hours to drive. We gather at 7:00 in the morning. We have experience this time, and did not prepare breakfast, but know that there are many breakfast stalls in front of the tourist distribution center at the entrance of the old passenger station. I bought two soy milks, a glutinous rice white sugar cake and a deep-fried dough stick. The white sugar cake is far worse than the one in Shanghai. It is not fluffy, but very sticky and tasteless.
There are not many people going to Maotai Town for a day trip, so the car is a 14-seater car. It is not parked in the tourist distribution center, but parked on the roadside of the breakfast stall, which is easy to find.
A driver, a tour guide, and the other 12 seats were all filled. We arrived half an hour earlier, so we sat at the front. The rest of the tourists who came to Maotai Town were basically middle-aged and elderly people. They all came with a feeling for the Chinese wine culture and had a glimpse of the style of Maotai Town. Our tour guide is Jin Lin. I have seen his praise on the Internet before. He introduced the history of the scenic spots very well. So he told us the story of Sidu Chishui in the car, and he told us for more than half an hour like a storyteller. Crossing Chishui four times has a very important position on the Red Army's Long March. The last crossing pretended to attack Guiyang, but it was actually an attack on Yunnan, and the Red Army won the victory later. Mao Zedong is really a military wizard!
Sichuan salt went to Guizhou, and Qin merchants gathered in Moutai. The origin of Maotai Town Baijiu comes from the fact that Guizhou did not produce salt in ancient times, and all salt had to be imported from other provinces, mainly from Sichuan. And Maotai Town in northern Guizhou is a must pass. Many salt merchants pass by Maotai Town. They will store some wine here and drink some wine to relieve their fatigue along the way. So starting from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, wine-making workshops have sprung up in Maotai Town.
The attractions that can be visited today are not very visible. The main reason for coming to Maotai Town is that there is a kind of cultural accumulation in Maotai Town. People have a complex, not to see with the eyes, but to feel with the heart. Everyone in the group basically came to Maotai Town on the last day of travel. When traveling to Guizhou, it seems that if you don’t take a look at Maotai Town, you will leave with regret.
The first scenic spot I saw today was the 1915 Square in Maotai Town and the Sidu Chishui Memorial Hall. In 1915, it was because Moutai won the 1915 Panama Gold Medal. At that time, Moutai was exhibited in wine jars that were full of dirt, so foreigners only smelled it but did not drink it. Later, the exhibitors intentionally or accidentally broke a jar of Moutai. In an instant, the aroma of Moutai filled the entire exhibition hall, and it won the Panama Gold Medal. When the Red Army crossed Chishui four times, they also used Moutai to scrub and disinfect the wounds, adding to the historical achievements.
Maotai Town is also built near the mountains and rivers. On both sides of the Chishui River, there are Maotai Distillery and Sidu Chishui Memorial Hall on one side, and 1915 Square and Maotai Town on the other. The houses in Maotai Town are also built on the hillside, and the road up the hill is very narrow, barely passing two lanes. On both sides of the road are liquor shops and liquor workshops, large and small. Now is the time to prepare to transport grain and brew wine, so the road conditions are very congested, and a large truck can be congested for more than ten minutes by turning around.
We first came to the entrance of Maotai International Hotel to take pictures. If you want to live, I heard that it has been about half a year, and it costs more than 1,500 yuan a night, so that you can buy two bottles of real Moutai if you are eligible. Then go to the 1915 Square in front. There is a huge 1915 trophy-shaped model in the square, as well as a model of a broken magnum, where you can take a group photo. Next to it is the "Mysterious Moutai" steps leading to Maotai Town. When you see this step, you don't want to climb it, and there is a homestay next to it. So we climbed the suspension bridge from the stairs next to the 1915 square and crossed the Chishui River. The suspension bridge is the best place to view the whole Maotai Town. From the suspension bridge, you can clearly see the whole picture of Maotai Town, the scenery of Chishui River, Sidu Chishui Memorial Hall, Maotai International Hotel and the large distillation furnace of Maotai Distillery on the top of the mountain. The view is excellent.
I heard from the tour guide that the Chishui River is also a very magical river. More than a month ago, that is, in August, the color of the water in the Chishui River was still red, but now it is emerald green, as if dyed with green paint. Not at all clear. But in ten days or so, the river water will become extremely clear, and you can see a place two or three meters deep. At this time, it is time to brew Moutai Zhenjiu.
After crossing the Chishui River, we arrived at the Sidu Chishui Memorial Hall. There was a long queue at the gate of the memorial hall, which was because it was very slow to register the ID number and mobile phone number one by one. This is the same as Guiyang Railway Station, the management is confused. The memorial hall is quite big, and there are many, many pictures in it, but no one explains it, and it is very foggy. The things in the memorial shop are not expensive. A small enamel teacup costs only ten yuan a piece, and a complete set of tea sets is only in the early 100s. There are also Moutai gift boxes, 1 tael and 1 small bottle, 1 box of 5 bottles in 1999, the price is a bit expensive, but it is true.
After leaving the memorial hall and going up, we reached the top of the mountain. There is the Sidu Chishui Monument on the top of the mountain, where you can see Maotai Town from a higher angle, but part of it is blocked by trees.
At noon, we drove to the winery opposite Maotai. The winery was on the top of the mountain. First of all, visit the production process of the winery, but the wine has not yet started, so what we see are piles of sorghum, as well as the wine cellar and distillation machines. The sorghum here is more expensive, five yuan a catty, mainly because it is fried by Moutai. Different from the Northeast, the grains of sorghum here are small and the starch content is low. Only five catties of sorghum can make one catty of wine, so if the cost per catty of wine is less than 50 yuan, then it cannot be 53-degree Maotai-flavored liquor, and 53-degree Maotai-flavored liquor is the best. So if you are buying wine, you have to put a question mark on the wine that is less than 50 yuan?
We tasted five wines, 3 years old, 7 years old, 13 years old, 16 years old and 22 years old. Among them, the 3-year-old wine is very undrinkable, with a very strong taste, and the alcohol smell fills the entire cheek after one sip. The 7 year old was very sour and not very tasty.
The 13-year-old ones are easier to drink, the 16-year-old ones are not much different from the 13-year-old ones, and the 22-year-old ones have a strong sauce flavor, which is endlessly memorable. I heard that the 22-year-old ones can be compared with Moutai. 198 for 3 years, 298 for 7 years, 388 for 13 years, 588 for 16 years, 988 for 22 years, 20% off for team purchases. So we bought a box of six bottles of 388, discounted it to 312, and asked the store to send two samples, which are quite cute. You can directly send it back by postal express, it is free shipping!
The winery is called Nianfeng Wine Industry, and its scale is relatively large. The lunch was freshly fried in the cafeteria of the winery, and it was very good, especially the bacon. In fact, along the way in Maotai Town, you can see many small workshops, and almost every household is making and selling wine.
There is another scenic spot behind is the Yanjin River Scenic Area. There is an oversized Moutai bottle, called the No. 1 bottle in the world, and a large plaque of the National Liquor Gate. Before the expressway was opened to traffic, this was the only place to go to Maotai Town. One side of the big Moutai bottle is Feitian Moutai, and the other side is Five Star Moutai. Originally, the Renhuai Museum was also here, but due to the epidemic, it was closed. Do you think it is a bit too cautious? It's a pity that I couldn't visit. On the way back, I saw a huge dragon standing still on the expressway coming from Guiyang. Fortunately, we were going in the opposite direction.
In the evening, I ate beef in Guichu sour soup. This restaurant was a surprise, and it is also in Huijinxinglicheng. Originally, I just wanted to have a makeshift meal near the hotel, and I didn't want to continue eating Guailufan, so I found this restaurant with good reviews online. I bought a group meal for two and beef skewers, the total is only 84, and I actually enjoyed the service of 200+. The set meal includes sour soup pot, beef brisket, sauerkraut, grilled Qingyan tofu, and potato chips, but the accompanying snacks are all you can eat. There are all kinds of vegetables, dipping water, fruits, ice powder, sour plum juice, etc. You can’t eat it at all Come. Is the shopkeeper yelling at a loss of business? It's a great value too! Although I chose the sour soup pot, it made the store suffer half of the beef bone soup, so it is not so spicy. But the vegetables are still spicy. Fortunately, I went downstairs to Hema Xiansheng and bought 2 boxes of fresh milk to relieve the spicy food before eating.
DAY11: 9/30 Thursday Zhijin Cave
1. Content: Zhijin Cave 1-day tour
2. Transportation: tourist bus
3. Meals: group meals, Changwang Noodles at South Gate + Dessert Shop on Quanlin Pedestrian Street
4. Accommodation: Guiyang-Old Passenger Station Yaster Hotel
Go to Zhijin Cave today, and depart from the old passenger station at 07:10. We are already familiar with the road, first go to the old passenger station to find a tour guide to sign in and occupy a good seat, and then come out to buy breakfast. Zhijin Cave is not far away, about two hours by car. I have been to Yaolin Fairyland in Hangzhou and Qixing Cave in Guilin. Do you still want to go to Zhijin Cave? I did some ideological struggle, but Zhijin Cave was rated as the first of the "Six Most Beautiful Tourist Caves in China"; "China's Most Beautiful Tourist Attraction - the first of the "Top Ten Wonderful Caves in China". "China National Geographic" said It is the "King of Karst Caves in China". ", so it's still worth a visit.
Zhijin Cave was originally called Daji Cave, and the villagers here hold cockfighting competitions every year. During the competition, a chicken fell into the hole and disappeared, so people discovered such a huge cave. But the name of Dajidong is not pleasant at all, it is too earthy, so it is named Zhijindong after the county name of this county.
Zhijin Cave is very big, and it takes two hours to walk around. Different from other cave dwellings, he did not use colorful and colorful lights to set off these stalactites, but used white light, so that the scene in Zhijin Cave can be seen more clearly, which is more original. The light is a little dark, and it doesn't look good when you shoot it. But it is indeed very big and strange, of course, the main advantage is that it is big, and cave dwellings are all the same thing. After you come out, you can take the sightseeing bus back to the starting point, and you will arrive at about 12:20. Lunch is also at a hotel near the starting point. There is not a hard dish, basically all vegetarian dishes and some small meat, but I feel very comfortable to eat, and the rice is also delicious. After eating at about 1:30, we returned and arrived in Guiyang before 4 o'clock. Today's itinerary is relatively easy.
It’s still early in the evening. We haven’t eaten Changwang noodles in Guizhou for more than ten days, so Tutu went to the Internet to search for the best Changwang noodles, called Nankou Changwang noodles. I took a taxi to the Changwang noodle shop, and the driver said on the way that he felt that Changwang noodles were pretty much the same everywhere, so there was no need to take a taxi there. But in fact, we only have one chance to travel. If we want to eat, we must eat the best. It is still worth going. The shop of Chang Wang Noodles is very simple, which makes me feel a little bit out of touch with the thousands of good reviews. Such a small shop must win by its taste. I ordered Changwang Noodles with Xuewang and Changwang Noodles with Pig’s Knuckles. The one with Xuewang is very spicy, and the one with Pig’s Knuckles is the original noodles. There are not many noodles, I guess there are only two or two, but they are very strong, and they look like instant noodles. The most delicious is of course the intestines. The non-spicy is the white soup, the original taste is clean, the soup is very fresh, and the ingredients are also very rich. It only costs 12 yuan, and this kind of noodles is not expensive at 30 yuan. Next to Changwang Noodles is Quanlin Pedestrian Street, where there are a lot of delicacies. Changwang noodles were not very full, so we ordered a lot of desserts. Mango Smoothie, Red Bean Double Skin Milk. Ice powder, taro ball fruit fishing, delicious and cheap, enough to eat!
DAY12: 10/1 Friday Sky Eye
1. Content: Pingtang Tianyan 1-day tour
2. Transportation: tourist bus
3. Meals: Group Meal Old Kaili Sour Soup Fish-Huang La Ding
4. Accommodation: Guiyang-Old Passenger Station Yaster Hotel
Since Wanfenglin lost one day, we set aside a day. I originally planned to go shopping in the city in the last 2 days. Just yesterday when I was having lunch in Zhijin Cave, I heard from the group members that they went to the Tianyan Scenic Area and felt that it was quite high-tech and not bad. So Tutu made an impromptu decision and applied for a group of 258/person for a one-day in-depth tour of Tianyan, including scenic environmental protection vehicles, astronomical experience halls and astronomical theaters. In fact, this is just the most basic package, and there are other scientific audio-visual projects. , but I don't think it's necessary. The itinerary is very easy. First arrive at a peripheral scenic spot, and then store electronic products. Mobile phones, cameras and other electronic products will interfere with natural signals, so they are not allowed to be carried, but you can rent a film camera for 100 yuan. After storage, take an eco-car for about 30 minutes. The environmental protection car in the scenic spot comes down and changes to the through train. As long as you don't walk up to 200 steps, you will see the eye of the sky. The through train is 20 yuan up and down. If you climb it by yourself, there are 800 steps and it takes 20 to 30 minutes, but the through train only takes five minutes to get there. Mobile phones are not allowed in the core scenic spot of Tianyan, so the fee of 30 yuan for the through train and taking pictures can be exchanged for cash at the canteen near the package delivery before taking the eco-car. The core scenic spot of Tianyan is a big pot, and it only takes ten minutes to see it. Take a picture, and you can come back again. After about an hour, I returned to the original peripheral scenic spot, where mobile phones can be used. The next step is to visit the Astronomical Experience Hall, and the second floor is the Astronomical Cinema. Astronomical Theater is a dome theater that introduces the solar system. It takes about 20 minutes. The dark environment and looking up at the spinning starry sky make people feel sleepy. Most of the pictures in the Astronomical Experience Hall are not as good as the Shanghai Science and Technology Museum. During the 11th, Tianyan Scenic Area is holding a food festival. There are some food stalls selling iced watermelon, ice cream, jelly, sausage and meals, but the prices are a bit expensive.
Opposite the Tianxiang Cinema is the Nan Rendong Memorial Hall. Nan Rendong is the founder and initiator of Tianyan. He gave up his status as a visiting professor in Japan and resolutely returned to China to develop astronomy and build the world's largest radio telescope with a diameter of 500 meters. The location of Pingtang Tianyan was also discovered by him after more than ten years of exploration, traveling all over the country, and after a fall, regardless of his injuries, he discovered such a tiankeng. At the end of his life, he also devoted himself to the Sky Eye, worked tirelessly, and dedicated his life to science. Unexpectedly, during the one-day tour of Tianyan, what touched me the most was the feeling of patriotism!
On the last night in Guizhou, of course we had to eat the intangible cultural heritage old Kaili fish in sour soup. When weighing fish, there are all kinds of fish, such as catfish, yellow spicy diced fish, sharp-billed fish and turtle. I asked the clerk to order more yellow spicy diced and sharp-billed fish. I had never heard of these two kinds of fish before, and I didn’t dare to eat them at first, but later I realized that the yellow latin is what we Shanghainese call the stickleback. At the beginning I said to weigh two, each of us weighed one, and finally weighed only 0.6 catties, so I added two more, a total of 1.1 catties. In addition, I also ordered cake porridge, vegetable platter and snack platter. The snack platter includes tofu balls, brown sugar glutinous rice cakes, and potato pancakes. You can taste all kinds of delicacies at once. I wanted to order some ice powder, but unfortunately it was sold out. The total bill was only 185, not expensive but very full.
1. Content: Qianling Mountain Park
2. Transportation: Taxi, Metro Line 2
3. Meals: all included in Guizhou Snack Research Center
On the last day of Guiyang, Qianlingshan Park, Jiaxiu Tower and Provincial Museum were planned. The Provincial Museum is a backup attraction, I slept late, and it was already 12 o'clock when I packed up and stored it, so I saved this far and tasteless attraction. What I want to go most is Qianlingshan Park, after all, this is the most famous scenic spot in Guiyang. Qianling Mountain Park is located in the north of Guiyang City. From the top of the mountain, you can overlook the entire Guiyang City, and there are many macaques on the mountain that will interact with tourists. But on October 2, there were too many tourists, and the cable car up the mountain had to queue for more than an hour. We had to catch a plane at night, so we had to give up. Seeing that many tourists are going to the zoo, we follow the crowd. On the way to the zoo, I even passed a place where Zhang Xueliang was once imprisoned, called Qilin Cave. The surrounding environment is good and the trees are shady, but the rooms and facilities are also very simple.
The ticket to Qianlingshan Park is really cheap. It only costs 5 yuan, and you can see all kinds of animals and giant pandas, and there are even lop-eared rabbits. However, these are animals in cages, and the most interesting ones are monkeys. Monkeys are really not afraid of people, so they walk on the street at will. Grab mineral water bottles from tourists. Many tourists brought a large bag of bananas to feed the monkeys. Every time they gave the monkeys a banana, the monkeys would perform a banana-peeling performance on the spot. Some tourists also gave the monkeys walnuts. We bought a large bag of popcorn yesterday at Tianyan and couldn't finish it, so we brought it over for the monkeys to eat. But the monkey actually disliked popcorn as junk food, so when Chef Xiao Mo Chu gave him popcorn, he punched Little Magic Chef and refused to eat it at all! We also brought some plums, which were sour and hard, and we were not sure if the monkeys would eat them. As a result, we put the plums on the palms of our hands and handed them to the monkeys. The monkeys took the plums from us very gently and ate them, and even took pictures with us very cooperatively. The monkeys here are really mature!
After feeding the monkeys, we went to Jiaxiu Tower and visited Baozheng Guizhou Snack Research Center. Orders cannot be ordered here from four to five o'clock in the afternoon every day, so we arrived at 3:20, so we rushed here first, and then went to Jiaxiu Tower. Jiaxiu Building is only a few steps away from this store. Although I have been here last time, I didn't go to Jiaxiu Building to take a look because it closed at 17:00 in the evening. Unexpectedly, when we arrived at four o'clock this time, the appointment channel was closed in advance, and we could no longer go upstairs. Presumably there are also shops above, there is nothing to see. The last meal in Guiyang, so I ordered some more, and ordered all the dishes in the whole snack that we hadn’t ordered last time. Of course, I ordered the silk doll again. After passing this village, there will be no such shop, so don’t stay. Unfortunately, I can't eat the package! The best drink is Maojian milk tea, the green tea is very refreshing, and the milk tea is not sweet at all. I also ordered cucumber milk glutinous rice sorbet, cake porridge, rose ice powder, guailu rice, buckwheat cold noodles, Wufu sweet sausage, Anshun hair cake, sliced fish in sour soup and stewed skewers platter. Except for the sliced fish in sour soup, everything else was delicious.
After I couldn’t finish eating, I packed up and went back to the hotel. After I got my luggage, I took Line 2 to the airport. The plane arrived at 7:30, and there was no subway after 10:00 when we got back to Shanghai. When we came out, we just took Airport Line 4 to Hongkou Football Stadium at 11:05, and then took a taxi back. When I returned to Shanghai, I felt very down-to-earth. Even though the mountains and rivers are boundless, my hometown is better!
