Speaking of Bijie, maybe many people have never heard of this place, so that's right! This time, Evan will show you this neglected potential tourist destination in Guizhou.

In addition to the beautiful scenery, few people, and low consumption, the biggest feature of Bijie lies in the "decathlon": here is the scenery of Western Sichuan similar to Ganzi Aba, the scenery of Wujiang River comparable to Lijiang River, rich ethnic customs, and the uncanny Zhijin Cave. There are also seas of rhododendrons and leek flowers all over the mountains and plains, as well as windmills standing on the top of the hills, producing blockbuster films in minutes!

You only need to visit one place to feel the diverse customs, which is the biggest feature of Bijie.

Let me show you where Bijie is and what interesting attractions there are (click to enlarge)

Knowing a little bit about Bijie, everyone knows the most famous and must-see Big Three: Zhijin Cave, Baili Rhododendron, and Weining Caohai. But Evan sees it differently.

First of all, the biggest highlight of Baili Rhododendron is the sea of ​​Rhododendron flowers all over the mountains, but the most beautiful flowering period is only from the end of March to the end of April every year, and it is not cost-effective to visit at other times;

Secondly, Weining Caohai is currently closed due to ecological protection, and it is impossible to take a boat to visit the center of the lake, so you can also pass it.

Therefore, Evan reorganized the attractions of Bijie and how to choose based on his personal experience.

Bijie must visit TOP3

Zhijin Cave, unique in China, is known as the king of caves

World Geopark/National Natural Heritage/King of China's Karst Caves/First of China's Most Beautiful Caves, for these titles, it is already a must-see. Evan has also visited many caves over the years, so he didn't have great expectations for the Zhijin Cave, and worried that the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment. It turns out I am! wrong! up! In the cave, there are more than 40 kinds of cave deposits such as stalagmites, stone pillars and stone buds, forming a variety of karst landscapes, as if you are in hell. Due to its uniqueness, it deserves the number one spot.

Suggestions for playing: Zhijin Cave has a small area of ​​developed scenic spots, half a day is enough time for the whole journey, and it does not consume physical strength. There is also a Zhijin Grand Canyon developed in recent years nearby, which can be considered for a full day.

Baicao Lawn - a free niche natural grassland

The scenery of Baicaoping is very similar to Ganzi Aba in western Sichuan, the only difference is the blessing of windmills, which is more suitable for taking pictures. This is a completely free wild attraction, where all kinds of wildflowers and weeds grow wantonly, dotted with cattle and sheep, you can take photos with free-range horses and sheep at will, and of course there are standard horse riding and other recreational activities nearby.

Suggestions for travel: No charge for wild attractions, convenient transportation, small grassland, 1-2 hours for taking pictures and playing, you can also lie on the grass and bask in the sun, or have a picnic, and spend half a day lazily.

Wujiangyuan Baili Gallery, do not go to Guilin, enjoy the small Lijiang River

I never thought that there would be such a beautiful view of the Wujiang River in Bijie. This scenic spot is very unpopular, even many locals have never been to it, and the fees are very conscientious. There are no tickets, and you can choose freely whether to take a boat or not. The river water is clear and deep, the reflection is deep green, and the peaks and walls on both sides of the river are steep and magnificent. Evan also saw good swimmers in the river, and guys washing motorcycles by the river. Such an original ecological scenic spot is commendable!

Suggestions for playing: There will be a section of winding mountain roads of several kilometers in the scenic spot, and it is recommended that old drivers clear the way. It is recommended to take a boat tour, the price is affordable, and the play time is half a day.

It is recommended to play TOP3 in Bijie

Leek Ping - Wandering in the sea of ​​purple flowers

The reputation of Jiucaiping is far greater than that of Baicaoping. The reason why Evan didn't put it on the must-see list is because it is also affected by the flowering period. The purple leek flower sea is only available in August and September every year, and it is still a mature scenic spot that requires tickets. Apart from these two points, the scenery of Jiucaiping is not inferior to that of Baicaoping. There are tall windmills and winding roads in the distance, and there are blue sky and white clouds above. It is worth a visit!

Suggestions for sightseeing: Jiucaiping Scenic Area has a large area, and it takes half a day to a day to complete the tour. At the same time, it is very close to Baicaoping. It is recommended to play together. The altitude of Jiucaiping is slightly higher, and the wind is strong, so keep warm.

Zhigaalu Lake - a large mountain lake surrounded by mountains

Zhiga Alu Lake is a weekend resort for the citizens of Bijie, especially the people of the nearby Dafang County. Strolling along the shore of the lake, there is an illusion of walking on the seaside of Japan in a trance. There is also a cruise ship service here, and there are many small vendors selling fried fish on the shore, you can try it.

Suggestions for playing: The road condition is very good, but it is also a mountain road, so you need to be careful when driving. There are few recreational activities in the lake area, and it only takes 1-2 hours to take pictures while overlooking the lake.

Shexiang Ancient Town - the first choice for Internet celebrities to take pictures

Shexiang Ancient Town is actually a very new scenic spot. It is a targeted poverty alleviation project of Evergrande Group to help Dafang County in pairs. It is not like a traditional ancient town, a few commercial streets full of shops are over, but the design combines the local Yi culture to create a central garden modeled on the terraced fields of Guizhou, which is very suitable for taking pictures and posting to Moments.

Suggestions for playing: The night in the ancient town is full of brilliance, you can go shopping. Except for the landmark garden in the middle, it is not much different from ordinary ancient towns.

One-sentence review of other attractions

Bijie is very rich in tourism resources, and there are many more that can be considered in the itinerary, so Evan packed a family portrait summary at the end.

Barry Rhododendron

If you happen to be in the Rhododendron blooming period, you must go to the Baili Rhododendron Scenic Spot! It is the representative scenic spot of Bijie, tied for the first place with Zhijin Cave! It can be ignored at other times.

Weining Caohai

Evan would like to remind everyone again that Caohai has been closed and turned into an ecological protection area, and it is not allowed to enter the lake to play, let alone take a boat, and the reopening time is unknown.

Zhijin Grand Canyon

Next to the Zhijin Cave, you can visit two scenic spots together, which is a scenic spot that can be played or not.

Muoge Ancient City/Shexiang Tomb (Museum)

Mu'oge Ancient City, Shexiang Tomb, and Shexiang Ancient Town are all located in Dafang County, Bijie City. You can consider spending half a day to visit them all. They are all free attractions. If time is tight, these three attractions can be abandoned.

horse pendulum mountain

The scenery of Mabai Mountain is very similar to that of Baicaoping, you can choose one of the two attractions.

The Chengdu-Guizhou high-speed railway has been opened, and Bijie will be closed in 3 hours
