Taking advantage of the holidays, I started my 9-day trip to Guizhou. The attractions I visited include: Huangguoshu Waterfall, Zhenyuan Ancient Town, Qianhu Miao Village, Maolan Nature Reserve, 'Seven Holes, Big and Small, etc. This is a road with both mountains and rivers. Humanistic landscape tour.
Water is notoriously beautiful, and Guizhou's ethnic customs are the most graceful. There are too many themes and elements to be photographed. When many friends want to travel to Guizhou, they are very confused about where to go. For example, there are countless minority villages and karst landforms in Guizhou. The types of scenic spots are similar, and they don’t know how to choose.
I recommend an itinerary, which is especially suitable for the first time to visit Guizhou. This route can go to recognize Huangguoshu, one of the world-famous waterfalls, to experience the quiet and leisure time of Zhenyuan’s night scene, and to experience the long table banquet of Qianhu Miao Village in Xijiang. , Banmen wine, the original ecological performances of the elder brothers and younger sisters of the Miao family, to appreciate the exquisiteness of Libo Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. The location of these attractions and the way you play are very important. Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village, Zhenyuan Ancient City is suitable for staying in a special inn for one night, so that you can better experience the local slow life in Guizhou.

At 16:10 pm on July 19, the plane arrived at the airport and was notified that the plane was delayed. Finally took off 2 hours later and arrived in Tongren at 8:45. Contact the hotel that has been booked, the pick-up master has been waiting at the airport for more than 2 hours. Thanks to the hotel (Xinghe Haoyue Hotel) and the pick-up driver. The location of the hotel is excellent, and it takes 9 minutes to walk to the entrance of the scenic spot. The food at Dianzui Pavilion at the entrance tastes very good.
Tickets are 110 yuan for adults and half price for students; you can choose to take a tour bus to the foot of the main peak at the door. More than 1 hour; at the foot of the mountain, you can choose to take the cableway. The round trip is 160 yuan, and the one-way is 90 yuan. You can also choose to climb up the mountain here. The journey will take about 5 hours. Tourists are prohibited from climbing the mountain at 2 pm every day. You need to climb 8,000 steps, and there will be a reminder every 1,000 steps. This is a test of the courage and perseverance of tourists. If you have time, you may wish to challenge the 8,000 steps (PS: There will be wild animals on the road~)
Fanjingshan tour takes 5-8 hours.
Depart at 8:30 in the morning, go to the scenic spot (booked by the ticket hotel), and take a sightseeing car for about 25 minutes to reach the cable car point (this section must take a long car journey and there is no scenery). It is quite convenient to take the cableway up the mountain. The cableway needs to run for about 20 minutes. It takes you from the foot of the mountain to a place close to 2000 meters. , Let many people feel excited. After coming down from the ropeway to the top of the mountain, it is all mountain roads. The iconic attractions of Mount Fanjing include: Hongyun Jinding, Yuejing Mountain, Ten Thousand Meter Sleeping Buddha, Mushroom Stone, Ten Thousand Volumes of Sutras, Nine Dragon Pool, Phoenix Mountain, etc. It takes 1.5 hours to climb the mountain. The scenery on the road is really beautiful. There is a burning lamp temple on the top of the mountain, which is very small. The specific experience of the beautiful scenery of Fanjing Mountain is different. Not much to say about the last few pictures.
It was about 1:30 when I came down from the mountain. I went back to the hotel for dinner. The driver contacted a car (7-seat Wuling Hongguang) to take customers to Fanjing Mountain and return to Zhenyuan. The per capita fee was 100 yuan. Decisively choose to do (2 hours to arrive). My own strategy is to take the car back to Tongren (or Yuping) in the afternoon, and take the train to Zhenyuan. Time-consuming and labor-intensive. Departure to Zhenyuan at 2:30. The overall feeling of Fanjing Mountain is not as beautiful as it is advertised. It is a good place to escape the summer heat.
Fanjingshan Summary: There are many direct buses to Fanjingshan at the airport and train station, and you can contact them yourself after getting off the bus. (The price depends on your ability). Accommodation: Take the car directly to the entrance of the scenic spot, there are all small hotels, you can choose by yourself (you can also book online). Scenic spots: Fanjing Mountain has no special scenic spots. The cableway sightseeing car must be used. There is nothing in front of it. After getting off the cableway, there is still a long mountain road to climb. There are many wild animals on the road. Special thanks to Xinghe Haoyue Hotel for their warm reception (highly recommended).
Zhenyuan
Arrive at Zhenyuan Ancient City at 4:30 pm and get off at Xindaqiao. I didn't book a hotel online. After getting off the bus, there were hotels all along the road (by the Wuyang River). I picked a place by the river where I can see the river view. Start at 6 o'clock after a rest, the most famous ancient city red sour soup fish by the Wuyang River. Sitting by the Wuyang River in a daze, it's so beautiful. Get up early the next day to visit the ancient city, walk along the pedestrian street from Xinda Bridge to Zhusheng Bridge, Qinglong Cave, Museum, Cuiping Mountain. There are many ancient alleys in the pedestrian street. The ancient city is very small, half a day is enough to visit.
stay
Tell me about the accommodation in Zhenyuan. Here are mainly family hotels. Because business, scenic spots, and transportation are all concentrated on the north bank of Wuyang River and near Zhusheng Bridge, most of the famous hotels also gather here. Of course, the price on the north bank of the river is higher than that on the south bank of the river.
The hotels to the east of Zhusheng Bridge are: Wangjiang Tower, Huamanlou, Shenshiyuan (the most expensive hotel in the town), Qingshuiju, Deyuelou and so on. Because of the blocking of the Zhusheng Bridge, the view of the landscape will be affected to a certain extent; compared with the "Lotus Pavilion", it can not only enjoy the scenery, but also take a quiet place in the middle of the noise, and the price is cheaper.
There is a row of hotels on the west side of the Zhusheng Bridge, and there are river-view rooms such as Youranju and Fuwan.
diet
The river in Zhenyuan is the Wuyang River. There are tables set up by the river for dinner at night. The most people are around 20:00, and the location is hard to find. The food stall next to the new bridge has a booming business every day. There are also many snacks around.
To eat grilled fish by the river, it is best to pick the fish yourself.
Tour Guide
When you come up along the river, you can see the subtitles of this giant stone screen town. This is the gate of Zhenyuan Ancient Town. Zhenyuan Ancient City is composed of Acropolis and Fucheng. The Acropolis is where the ordinary people lived before, and the Fucheng is where the dignitaries lived before, separated by the Wuyang River in the middle.
Now the houses on both sides of the Wuyang River are newly built, and the real ancient houses should be entered from Fuxing Lane. The ancient city of Zhenyuan is actually a circle around the Wuyang River, starting from the performance place to Zhenjiang Pavilion, then walking along the road of Tianhou Temple to Fuxing Lane Mountain, passing the top of Shiping Mountain and going down the mountain to the ancient building of Qinglong Cave Group, and then walk back, even if this loop is just a quick tour, it will take almost a whole day. Along Fuxing Lane, you can come to the Fu Family Courtyard. This is the only old house in Zhenyuan that has been passed down from generation to generation. The Fu family has never left for more than two hundred years. It is a good place to take pictures. After leaving the Fu family compound, it is the road leading to the top of the mountain. After a short climb, you can reach the toll office of Shiping Mountain Scenic Area.
Kuixing Pavilion was donated by the prefect of Zhenyuan during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty on the Zhusheng Bridge. Zhusheng Bridge is the only way for students from Yunnan and Guizhou to go to Beijing to take the exam. Although Zhenyuan is small, it is full of history.
Main attractions in Zhenyuan～
Museum, Shiping Mountain, Zhusheng Bridge, Qinglong Cave.
The long-distance bus from Zhenyuan to Qianhu Miao Village in Xijiang can be booked online, or you can buy it directly at the Zhenyuan long-distance station (you must buy it in advance). The through train runs twice at 9 am and 2:30 pm. I bought the ticket late and missed the through train, so I had to take the bus to Kaili and transfer to Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village.
Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village
At present, Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village mainly provides accommodation for: farmhouse (Miao Jiale), inns, hotels, and although there are many tourists in Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village, the tourists are mainly composed of groups, and the team is in the wooden building. It is difficult to arrange and other factors, so I don't like living in Qianhu Miao Village in Xijiang, so there are plenty of places to stay. Of course, except for Golden Week.
Do not live near the viewing platform, it is inconvenient to travel.
The most expensive one is the inn near Zhaimen, halfway up the mountain under the viewing platform, because it has a good view and can see the entire Miao Village in the north, and the standard room usually costs about 200 yuan.
The viewing platform where you can see the lights of Wanjia is in the scenic area; the conditions of the inns in the scenic area are relatively average.
If you want to live in Kaili, come back early the next morning. You need to register at the gate as soon as you enter the scenic spot, so that you can go out and return to Kaili to stay in Kaili after watching the lights at night, and you can still come in the next morning.
Another point of view: one is near the viewing platform, which has a good view to take in the night view, dusk and morning light, but the disadvantage is that you have to go up and down the mountain every day. Although there are sightseeing buses, it is quite expensive for 5 yuan a time , This is more suitable for donkey friends. Because this will be a good place for you to gather intel.
The second is to live in the homes of local people, which is closer to life, but the conditions will be a little more difficult.
The third is to live near the ancient street. It is very convenient to go to some core attractions here, and it is also very convenient to eat and play around, but it will be a bit noisy. It's not as quiet as the mountains. The sound insulation of wooden houses living in Miao Village is quite poor. (I chose to live near the central square of the old street. The standard room is 200 yuan. It is convenient to eat and drink. It takes about 15 minutes to walk to the viewing platform at night to see the lights of Wanjia).
diet
Long table banquets, hot pots, and Miao-style stir-fried dishes are more popular in Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village. The long table banquet is a tradition for the locals to eat banquets. The long table banquet can even be as long as a kilometer, with happy diners sitting on both sides. The long table banquet also generally provides traditional king fish, drum Tibetan meat, chicken porridge, etc. , if it is eaten at a farmhouse, the host will come up to sing wine songs and toast (homemade rice wine). However, this kind of eating generally requires more than 8 people, and it is difficult to grow a table if the number is too small.
There are snacks along the streets of Xijiang, glutinous rice and meat are five yuan per serving. Sour soup fish is generally 68 yuan / pot or 48 yuan a catty, can be discussed. Recommended BBQ City, fried noodles, fried noodles are 10 yuan. The eggs eaten are free-range free-range chickens from the Miao family on the mountain. There are bacon and sausages here, and the taste is quite delicious!
When I arrived in Miao Village, I had to talk about the wine here. The wine there was brewed by myself, and the taste was average (everyone feels differently).
This is a special product of the local Miao village. The beef is dried. The Miao people like to eat yellow beef. The Miao people have many festivals. An average of two or three days is a festival, and the cattle must be slaughtered during the festival.
Tour Guide
1. There is a Miao Village welcome ceremony at the gate: wine at the door, around eleven o'clock. A performance team has lined up on the square in front of the ticket gate.
If you have a capacity for alcohol, you can drink it, but you can also decline it.
2. The sightseeing bus starts at 8:00, and the lights are turned off at 0:00 at night.
3. The Lusheng field during the day is a place to take pictures in Miao costumes, rent clothes for 10 yuan/set, about 30 minutes, no deposit or anything. The clothes and skirts are all tied at the back, just put them on the outside.
4. There are performances in Miao Village at 11:30 am and 17:30 pm every day. 30-40 minutes. When entering the scenic spot, you can consult the staff of the scenic spot first. (To watch the performance, you need to stamp the ticket, and you can only watch the performance once). Admission starts at 11 o'clock, friends must go in advance, so that you can find a good seat. A toast is also made to several tourists in the first row, and the last show is that the tourists dance with the dancers.
5. The Miao people live in stilted buildings. They usually raise livestock on the first floor and live in houses above the second floor. Therefore, if there are people raising livestock in the stilted buildings of the Miao family, the Miao people themselves live there.
6. There are currently two main streets in Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village, one is the original old street, and the other is Youfang Street along the riverside. Generally, after getting off the sightseeing bus, you will visit along the old street. There is not much shopping on the main street. On the contrary, the old houses on the back mountain and the old women with big flowers on their heads in Miao costumes have more local characteristics.
7. The Miao Nationality Museum can be entered with tickets. The museum is composed of 11 halls (rooms) including Miao History and Culture Hall, Song and Dance Art Hall, Clothing and Silver Jewelry Hall, Living Custom Hall, Production Custom Hall, and Architecture Art Hall. Demonstrate the inventions and creations of the Miao people; cover the drum festivals and festivals, and focus on displaying the traditional culture of the Miao people; interpret the stilt architecture and promote the scientific and technological achievements of the Miao people; respect the primitive religion and lay out the witchcraft of the Miao people; Xijiang knows the Miao villages in the world.
8. The Wind and Rain Bridge in Miao Village is one of the important buildings in Qianhu Miao Village in Xijiang. In order to improve the feng shui conditions of the villages and facilitate the life of the residents, most Miao villages have built Fengyu bridges near their villages to keep the wind and store energy and shelter from the wind and rain. There used to be wind and rain wooden bridges in Xijiang, mainly including Pingzhai Fengyu Bridge from Pingzhai to Ouga and Nanshou Fengyu Bridge in Nangui Village, which locks the Fengshui of Dazhai in Xijiang. Because it is a wooden structure, it was destroyed by floods after several repairs. At present, there are five Fengyu bridges built in Xijiang, which are the bow-shaped cement Fengyu Bridge connecting Dazhai and Xijiang Middle School, the bow-shaped cement Fengyu Bridge on the main road No. 1, and the bow-shaped cement Fengyu Bridge connecting No. Connecting the bow-shaped cement Fengyu Bridge in Nangui, because the previous Fengyu Bridge was built with an all-wood structure, it was easy to be washed away by floods. Flood ability greatly increased.
9. In front of the Fengyu Bridge is the boarding point of the sightseeing battery car. From here, take the bus to the highest point of the Miao Village to enjoy the scenery of the Miao Village.
10. There are 1,280 households and more than 5,000 people in Qianhu Miao village in Xijiang. "One person, also known as "Guzangtou", is called "Galue" (that is, "Drum Master") in Miao language.
11. Sightseeing cars include buses and small battery cars, queue up to get on the bus, and the end point is the entrance of the core scenic spot. A small stream accompanying the mountain road should be Baishui River. When you get off the bus, you will see a passage lined up by small stalls until you reach the gate of Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village. The next stop is the observation deck at the top of the mountain. You can also walk up the mountain, in fact, it is not far at all.
12. It was still dark, and the viewing platform was already full of people, and some people set up their guns and sprinted, waiting for the lights to turn on. I finally turned on the lights, and wondered why some places were not lit. Some people said that there were trees and no houses.
The suggestion for the viewing platform must be to go up by car and then walk down. One is because each sightseeing ticket we bought at the entrance can only take four rides. You go in and out a total of 2 times, go to the viewing platform once during the day and once at night, you are not enough, so you have to go down by yourself in the afternoon . The second is that if you walk not far, you will not be tired at all, and you can avoid the crowds of people on the viewing platform, and you can take pictures from any angle.
go out
There are direct buses from Miao Village to Guiyang, Huangguoshu and Libo, please consult at Miao Village Bus Station for the specific time. There are two buses at Libo at 9 am and 2:30 pm.
Libo
The owner of the Miao Village accommodation hotel contacted me for a direct bus to Libo, but it didn't come until I ordered it. I called to find out that he had left early (depressed, I was slapped). The ticket to Libo at the visitor center is gone. Fortunately, I have done a good job of preparation. I changed the route to Kaili and transferred to Duyun to Libo and arrived in Libo. I met a Bouyei girl in the car. Her father was the hotel recommended by the tour guide (who took care of the work himself). Just near Enming Square, the standard room was bargained to 180 by myself, and it turns out that the location I chose is really good. It takes a few minutes to walk to the food street, where there are all kinds of special snacks, such as tofu fish, roast suckling pig, roast ribs, water fern, beef powder and so on. The next day, I arrived early at the side of the road near the square. There were many minibuses going to Xiaoqikong, and they arrived in about half an hour for 10 yuan per person (there are many cars, reach out to park).
Go to the ticket office of the scenic spot, the ticket for Xiaoqikong is 110 yuan, and the sightseeing car is 20 yuan. There are quite a lot of queues, but you should pay attention to the online booking window and the non-online booking window (if you book online, you need to show the verification code of the mobile phone message) if you are 70 years old The elderly above can go through free formalities at the special window in the service center (ID card is required). Entering the scenic spot, you can see that from west to east, the main attractions that must be visited are divided into:
Wolongtan—Yuanyang Lake—Tianzhong Cave—Cuigu Waterfall—Water Forest—Guibei Mountain—Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge.
Be sure to remember that you must eat before entering the scenic spot! Must eat! Must eat! Say important things three times! As for why, I will talk about it later!
After buying a ticket at the Xiaoqikong ticket office, you can take the ticket to the scenic spot station. The station is not far from the ticket office. There will be service staff to guide you and take the shuttle bus to enter the scenic spot. Although there are a lot of people, you don’t have to wait too long, it only takes five or six minutes. The shuttle bus goes all the way to the scenic spot of Wolongtan in the westernmost section of the scenic spot, and then let tourists go from west to east from Wolongtan. There will be scenic buses connecting the scenic spots one by one. You can choose to walk to the next scenic spot, or you can choose to take the bus to the next scenic spot.
On the way in, you can already see a relatively good view.
Arrive at Wolongtan, ready to start the tour! In addition to the Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge, the most famous one is the Wolongtan Waterfall.
It is said that Wolongtan is very deep, just like an underground abyss. Even when there is a flood, the surface of the lake is as calm as a mirror, and there are many strange rocks and ancient trees on the shore.
After watching the waterfall, you can choose to hike to the next scenic spot, take a bus to the next scenic spot, or choose to drift!
The drifting project in Xiaoqikong Scenic Area can be said to be very skillful and professional. There will be a service girl to guide you to wear life jackets, buy waterproof bags (for mobile phones and banknotes), and luggage checks. The service is very good. Perfect, caring and thoughtful!
The rafting fee is not expensive, it looks like 50 yuan per person, we just drifted down the river on a rubber raft, it was already noon at that time, and we were a little hungry.
Perhaps because of ecological reasons, there are no restaurants or places to eat in the scenic area, only some farmers use baskets to sell boiled corn, rice in bamboo tubes, raw cucumbers, and small bananas... That's why I said before that you must remember to eat!
However, you can also replenish energy at the place where you buy tickets for drifting. There are instant noodles, pulsating Red Bull and so on.
It can be seen that many trees here grow directly in the water, like a forest on the water.
During the rafting process, most of the currents are not too fast. In the fast-moving places, security personnel will use ropes to help tourists ride rubber rafts and rush down the special water slide.
At this time, there will usually be a special person next to you to take pictures of you, capture the thrilling moment, and then take it to the end of your drift to ask you if you want to buy it. The photos are not expensive, but they are still very business-minded!
After drifting for about 40 to 50 minutes, we reached the end of the Wolong Valley drift. At this time, there will be service personnel to guide tourists to dock safely.
Coming out of Wolongtan, the next scenic spot is Yuanyang Lake. Yuanyang Lake is a maze-like water network composed of two large lakes and four small lakes in series. There are narrow waterways and open lakes, full of wildness.
The boats in Yuanyang Lake are all made of iron, and it is more laborious to row. In addition, the previous drifting consumed a lot of energy, but the scenery of Yuanyang Lake is still worth seeing, so we bought another boat ticket. There are a lot of people rowing, and the inside is like a maze, and you will have to go around it for hours if you are not careful.
The water surface is relatively calm, and the scenery is quite different from that of Wolongtan.
After all, I have come here, and although the experience is a bit tiring, it is still very meaningful.
After rowing out of Yuanyang Lake, Tianzhong Cave is not far away.
The entrance of Tianzhong Cave is in the shape of a big bell, which is unique.
Inside is a stalactite cave, which is not uncommon in Guizhou with karst landforms.
But the cave in Tianzhong Cave is very unique, and with the lighting effects, it makes people feel very fantastic.
The temperature inside the cave is very low, which makes people feel very cool. After exiting the cave, the lush forests you see are very quiet, and you feel like you are in an ancient temple in the mountains. Come out of Tianzhong Cave, take the shuttle bus in the scenic spot (all free), and go directly to the next scenic spot: Cuigu Waterfall.
Cuigu Waterfall is a stream of water pouring down from the mountain, and the white water flows through the green trees. Many people take pictures and play in the water here. Green mountains, blue sky, white waterfalls, people are in the scene, and the scene is in the heart.
After swimming in Cuigu Waterfall, you can come out and take the shuttle bus to the next scenic spot—Water Forest.
The water forest is a place for tourists to wade in. In such a spiritual place, it is worthwhile to get wet shoes and socks.
The intertwined trees and vines on the stones are intertwined in the mountain stream, and the stone piers scattered in the water flow form the promenade of the water forest, and you can go to the next scenic spot along the way. People trek through the forest on the water, and wade through the stream, and the water is not very deep, which is a lot of fun.
Walking out of the water forest is Guibei Mountain.
The original plants are densely covered on Guibei Mountain, and there are also many monstera here.
It was already afternoon at this time, and it was raining at this time, taking the shuttle bus from Guibei Mountain, we arrived at the main event - Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge. there are still many people
This ancient bridge was built in the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty. There are several beautiful legends, most of which are love stories. Below the antique bridge is the famous Hanbitan, which is sparkling and reflects the tourists on the ancient bridge.
The ancient bridge, which looks very thin, has stood still under the flood and rain for so many years, which shows the exquisite craftsmanship at that time.
After visiting the ancient bridge, most of the main scenic spots of Xiaoqikong have been passed, and you can take the shuttle bus to the entrance of the scenic spot. It's already 5 o'clock after leaving the small seven holes, and I can't go to the big seven holes. Take a photo at the door as a souvenir (it is said on the Internet that you don’t need to go to the big seven holes after you go to the small seven holes. It is meaningless to repeat the tour. If time permits, it is better to experience it yourself).
At the entrance of the scenic spot, there are many minibuses returning to Libo (leave as soon as it is full), and return to Libo to stay at the Maolan Nature Reserve tomorrow (I have already contacted the father of the Bouyei girl's tour guide to pack his car, 380 yuan a day).
Master Luo (driver and tour guide) got up early the next day and picked us up at 8:00. Since we have a long-distance bus to Guiyang at 3:30 in the afternoon, the actual time to visit Maolan is only half a day, and we can only play selectively.
.
Since we came in the wrong season, we couldn't appreciate the Wanmu Ancient Plum Garden. Imagine also feel "beautiful". There are also Yaogu commoner villages with a history of hundreds of years, Yaosuo Ancient Bridge, Huangyanggou, Crabgou, Latan Waterfall, and the roaring valley, which is very spectacular. The beauty of the Maolan Nature Reserve is beyond our imagination. In the Buyi villages, we can experience the original dyed cloth, architecture, language, writing, and the wisdom of the ancients. And Master Luo explained carefully. Stepping on the water and going up the river in the crab ditch, you can experience the primitive wildness to your heart's content, catching small crabs, small fish and shrimps, watching wild mushrooms and white fungus, it is simply perfect. I think half a day is too short. At noon, under the recommendation of Master Luo, I had a farm meal at the entrance of the Golden Lion Cave. It was very good. Affordable and unique. After the meal, we briefly turned around the Golden Lion Cave. The caves are all the same. There is no light in the Golden Lion Cave. Before entering the cave, send out a miner's lamp to look at it yourself. Depart from Golden Lion Cave and return to Libo. The trip to Libo is over.
Libo summary:
Accommodation: If you go to Xiaoqikong and Daqikong Maolan, it is strongly recommended to live in Libo (the distance to various attractions is not far). Near Enming Plaza (close to Food Street). It is convenient to eat, live and travel, and the price is not expensive.
Travel: Go to Xiaoqikong. There are many cars in the square for 10 yuan per person, which is very convenient. If you go to Maolan, there is a promotion point of Maolan Nature Reserve across the square, about 110 people, a day trip. If there are many people, chartered cars are the most suitable (usually 7 rides, about 380 yuan). Lichang long-distance station is near the square, and tickets to various scenic spots are booked in advance.
Guiyang
It was past 7 o'clock when we arrived in Guiyang. I felt that Guiyang is a relatively prosperous provincial capital city, so I didn't book a hotel online. After getting off the bus, I wanted to find a chain hotel to stay in, but the station was full of soliciting customers. Decided to stay far away. After walking for a while, I found a Chuanhui Fashion Hotel. The appearance was nice and the service was extremely bad. The sewer was blocked and no one was looking after it. It was such a failure that I found such a broken hotel. It will be a day.
Get up early to start the day's itinerary. Today, we plan to visit Jiaxiu Tower and Qianlingshan Park. Call Didi for 10 yuan to Jiaxiu Tower. Jiaxiu Tower is built on the Nanming River in the south of Guiyang City, based on a huge stone in the river. Jiaxiu Building was first built in the Ming Dynasty, the back building was destroyed and rebuilt, and it was renamed "Laifeng Pavilion". In the Qing Dynasty, Jiaxiu Tower was rebuilt many times and its original name was restored. The existing buildings were rebuilt in the first year of Xuantong (1909). Jiaxiu Tower has three floors above and below, with white stones as railings, which are retracted layer by layer. The height from the bridge deck to the roof is about 20 meters. The Nanming River flows in front of the building and merges into Hanbitan. On the side of the building, the stone arch "Fuyu Bridge" connects the two banks, and the original small pavilion on the bridge is called "Hanbi Pavilion". Zhuliang Biwa in Jiaxiu Tower, surrounded by water and mountains, matches the name and reality, so it can be called Jiaxiu.
After coming out of Jiaxiu Tower, it began to rain, and after walking for a while, it became heavier and heavier. I couldn't get a taxi, didn't have Didi, and couldn't find a bus. I was in a bad mood since last night, and now it's getting worse. It was decided not to go to Qianling Mountain, nor to Guiyang. Go back to the hotel to pick up your luggage and go to Huangguoshu.
Accommodation: Don't be near the station (very messy), you can book online.
Travel: There are direct buses to Jinyang Bus Station at the station, and Jinyang Bus Station has buses to various places
Anshun Huangguoshu
Arrive at Huangguoshu Station at 3:00 p.m., next to the tourist center of the scenic spot. There are many family hotels across the road from the entrance of the scenic spot, and the prices are not expensive (you can walk in and walk to the small square, and the price on the road is slightly higher). Stay here and prepare to take a rest. The hotel owner recommends that you go to the Doupo Pond in the scenic spot immediately, and then go to Tianxing Bridge and Huangguoshu tomorrow. Decisively decided to follow the advice (5 minutes from the hotel to the visitor center) and go to the visitor center to buy a ticket (the ticket is valid for 2 days). Huangguoshu is a relatively mature scenic spot, and sightseeing cars are very convenient to go to the entrances of various scenic spots.
Taking a sightseeing bus directly to Doupo Pond, the mood gets better instantly when there are few people and the scenery is good. Play slowly and finally find a little travel feeling.
Doupotang Scenic Area is famous for the 86 edition of Journey to the West. The most famous scenic spot is the end of Journey to the West. The scenery of four masters and apprentices walking on a waterfall is Doupotang. But Doupo Pond is not big, play slowly, and it takes more than an hour to finish, mainly to see the scenic spots in Journey to the West, after seeing it, return the same way
The farm meal eaten at the entrance of the scenic spot (the price is naturally the price of the scenic spot, but the taste is good, mainly natural and pollution-free). Back at the hotel, the boss told me to get up early tomorrow, and to get up early at 7 o'clock to avoid tour groups. We set off at 7:30 and there were already many people, and we went straight to Huangguoshu Waterfall. Huangguoshu Waterfall Scenic Spot is 77.8 meters high and 101 meters wide. It is the only world famous waterfall that can be seen and felt from six directions. With the Great Falls as the center, there are 18 waterfalls gathered within an area of more than 20 square kilometers, which is the largest waterfall group in the world. The water level we saw was not so wide and not as grand as imagined, but the uncanny craftsmanship of nature is still worth our visit. However, the bonsai at the entrance of the scenic spot is in place and rare. It is worth a look and a closer look! Because the road in Shuilian Cave can only accommodate one person, the first 100 meters of the cave will be crowded with people, and the passage will be slow and time-consuming. But it's worth a look. , the road sign will definitely lead you back to the rhino pool, avoid going up and down, and save your energy. It is recommended to go up the escalator on the return journey. There is no scenery on the return journey. Save your energy and go to Tianxing Bridge. Tianxing Bridge is recommended to play the whole course, and the essence is all in the second half. It still takes some time to walk through the Tianxing Bridge Scenic Area. Generally, the travel agency team will not take the guests all the way. They will lead the team out at the Gaolaozhuang scenic spot, so they will not see the iconic classic scenery of the silver chain falling into the pool, the stone forest on the water, and the pearl waterfall. , I will not see the Tianxing Cave yet, so friends who are free to travel must not give up the whole journey, although it is a bit tiring. Walking the entire Tianxing Bridge scenic spot is the most time-consuming place among the three core scenic spots. Let’s take the natural stone bonsai first. The water flows between the stones, and people walk around in the bonsai. It is quiet and beautiful, but it feels worse when there are many people. However, after passing the Gaolaozhuang scenic spot, the travel agency team will go out in the direction of the exit, and many independent travelers will naturally follow the majority of people. Therefore, as long as you follow the instructions and continue to walk in the direction of Tianxing Cave and Yinlian Zhuantan, you will enter the deep part of the scenic spot. Since most travel agencies do not take this route, there will be many fewer people. You go well. Tianxing Cave is a stalactite-like scene. If you go there a lot, they are all roughly the same. If you continue to walk forward, you will arrive at the Yinlian Zhuitan Scenic Area. The white stream flows down a circular drop pool. The giant silver chains in the pool are falling to the bottom of the pool one after another. The sound of water and the scenery weave together, making you stop breathing instantly. This attraction is very classic, and many covers and magazines have been used, it is a pity if you don't go to see it. There are many local guides and children at the entrance of the scenic spot, so don't look for them. They will take you directly to the second half (saving time to pick up the next tourist), and you can play slowly by yourself without a guide (all good attractions must be crowded).
If it is a day trip on your own, you don’t need to buy a sightseeing bus ticket. There is also a private car that costs 50 yuan. It will take you to the scenic spots and you can go and play with others.
After coming out of the scenic spot at 2 o'clock, I was already very hungry. I had a big meal and then took the car back to Guiyang.
go home.
The whole journey is 9 days free and easy, and you can do it yourself at home. I arranged the itinerary myself, hoping to help those who have never been to Guizhou.
