1. Brief introduction before the tour
During the epidemic, don't cause chaos, don't run around, just walk around.
This article adopts the method of more pictures and less text, leaving some impressions, and also providing some references for friends who may visit here.
Guanglu Ancient Town, Yao'an County, Yunnan Province, has a detailed introduction with pictures and texts on the Internet, so I won't go into details.
I have been to Guanglu Ancient Town many times by myself, but this time it is different. I am alone, walking + playing.
Starting from Yao'an County, there are two main roads to choose from, one is shown in the picture, and the other was built a few years ago, and it is a straight line from the county to the ancient town.
No matter which one, it is about 10KM.
After ordering beef noodles in the morning, we set off. Because we have to hike, we left a little earlier (8 o'clock).
When I arrived at the visitor center, I found out that Xiaofu was parked in the parking lot last night. I don’t know who hit the left front chin like this.
Leave such an ugly face.
Just arrived at the gate of the ancient town, and received such a news, so depressing.
Forget it, there are so many drivers, there must be a lot of unqualified ones, find a friend to help you change a gram, don't let this affect your mood.
2. The road to the town
The entrance of Guanglu Ancient Town is just beside the Nanyong Line, so it is easy to find.
The picture shows the gate of Guanglu Ancient Town seen from the side of Nanyong Line.
Take one from the front.
I think this one looks better
Standing on the bridge and looking north, it is not clear whether the river is flowing north or south.
If you look up from the side, the door is not open, you can't look up, you can only look like this.
Visitor Center.
From here to the real ancient town, there is still about 2,700 meters away, which can be driven or walked.
There are parking lots everywhere in the ancient town, the key is that I haven't seen the toll office yet.
The visitor center in the early morning is empty.
Where is Xiao Fu, all alone.
If the guest does not arrive, the charging system will start as standard.
Later verified, free.
Suggestion: Since it is free, why not just put the pole up, the display is powered off (and saves money), and it is always timed, which always feels uneasy and makes people feel a little uncomfortable.
The morning sun, the weather is really good, but it seems not suitable for hiking.
Starting in the direction of the ancient town, two-way four-lane, it feels good.
The middle of the first half is an isolated river (roads are built on both sides of the river), go in right and go out left, don't go against the road.
Nobody without a car.
Don't learn from me, everyone, pay attention to safety. Pedestrians keep to the right and walk on the sidewalk.
The sidewalk is fine.
Bun Valley by the roadside, fall, harvest time!
There is also a pedestrian urinal next to the sidewalk.
It's a pity that the maintenance is not in place, and it doesn't work.
The roadside scenery is good.
This is how the sidewalk has become.
Rest pavilions, don’t worry, there are such pavilions along the way (it is estimated that there is one around 500 meters away)
The gate is getting further and further away.
Keep going west.
The lotus pond by the road is short of water. The rain this year is pretty good, but due to the previous drought, nothing can be planted.
The former lotus pond is now planted with sunflowers, and there is a shortage of water.
The slogan is domineering.
The sunflowers have passed their full flowering period and have already entered the harvesting period.
I also want to face the sun.
The former lotus pond.
Guanglu National Characteristic Town.
As I said just now, don't go retrograde.
Of course, even if you go the wrong way, it is very convenient to turn around. There are a total of 3 kilometers, and there are many places for you to turn around. It would be great if life could be like this.
It will look better if you come one or two months earlier, with patches of sunflowers raising their heads proudly.
Now, most have matured and bowed their heads. A person's life seems to be similar.
There are rest pavilions on both sides of the road. It would be even better if there are 1-2 public toilets on this road section.
Flakes of sunflowers.
Standard facilities, drivers beware, this section is the only one.
rest pavilion.
Various umbrellas in the distance (first guess what they are, and I will introduce them later).

5. Guanglu New City
This is what I created to distinguish the ancient town
Go out of the gate of the ancient temple and look back at the mountains behind the ancient temple. In fact, this is not a high mountain in Yunnan, it can only be called a mountain.

The characteristics of the township streets are that they are built along the road, and people and vehicles are mixed and blocked.

Back to the gate again.

7. Chatting after the tour
Walking down in a circle, more than 10 kilometers, took more than 3 hours.
Detailed hiking trail map.
Walking alone, watching, and thinking, it is really not suitable for hiking in the sun, or sunbathing.
Entering the county town, the vehicle in front of me throws garbage (mineral water bottles, yogurt boxes, etc.) while walking, and the mineral water bottle almost hit the front of my car.
Why don't they leave themselves behind, hang up the license plate of the provincial capital, and lose the face of the provincial capital.
If you are timid, make a mosaic.
Chuangwei has a long way to go! In the past, economic development was emphasized, and quality education did not keep up.
Here are a few pictures to press the bottom. The following three pictures are screenshots of the network.
