As a person from the south of the Yangtze River, I seldom have the opportunity to go to the Northwest to see the great rivers and mountains of our motherland. Taking advantage of this Internet expert's activity in Guyuan, let's follow the Long March Road to see what interesting places there are in Guyuan. . Guyuan City is located in the southern mountainous area of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, at the eastern foot of Liupan Mountain, including five counties of Yuanzhou, Xiji, Longde, Jingyuan, and Pengyang. This time, my itinerary is to go to all five counties, including some history Cultural ancient city, red revolutionary old area, green summer resort, etc.; before I went on a trip, I thought Guyuan was a relatively rural place. After this trip, I found that there are still many interesting spots that I can recommend to everyone. . I'm not particularly interested in some historical content, so I haven't delved into a lot of content. I understand a little and share some fur. If you are interested, you can search for more related content online. Shanghai is not very close to Guyuan. It takes three or four hours to fly directly to Yinchuan, and then take a bus to Guyuan. The advantage of traveling in the Northwest during summer vacation is that it is not as hot as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, and the temperature is almost 5-8 degrees lower. It's very cool at night, and the place where the sun shines during the day is relatively sunny, but it's not the kind of sticky heat.
The first time I came to Ningxia in the northwest, I got off the plane from Yinchuan and headed straight to Guyuan. The scenery outside the window was the sandy land that is rare for us southerners; I stopped for a while in Wuzhong and ate authentic white leather noodles. I didn’t expect the taste of the Northwest. It's not as heavy as expected, and the mutton topping has no mutton smell at all. No wonder everyone says that the beef and mutton here are very delicious.
You can add shallots, bitter vegetables, and chives mixed with millet peppers according to your preferences; eat a bite of noodles and pair it with a bite of local characteristic eight-treasure tea, which is slightly sweet and has a particularly rich taste!
There is also the specialty selenium sand melon here, which is said to be on the market in mid-July every year. Because of the large temperature difference between morning and evening, the melon is very sweet, crunchy and rustling, with pinkish flesh and not very red flesh. The watermelon is also very big. It feels like jumping out of a sandy melon field! The bus passed several melon fields along the way, and I really wanted to get off and move one.
From my point of view, Yuanzhou in Guyuan, Yuanzhou District is the most lively place. After a full meal, we continued to drive for more than 3 hours to arrive at Huaqi Hotel, the most prestigious and famous hotel in Guyuan District, and checked in. My mother did not travel with me this time, but she likes the snacks and food in Northwest China very much, so she "cared" about what I ate every day. In fact, we ate at the buffet in Huaqi Hotel for two consecutive days. , but the taste is really good, all kinds of special snacks that I can’t name, and my favorite radish and mutton stew. Pimples are on fire. When it comes to the night view of Yuanzhou District, it must be Guyan Park. The night view of Guyan Park is simply too beautiful, because the sky in the northwest is dark and late. The tower recommends climbing at 8:30, and the sky is dark blue. It’s very beautiful to take pictures. I didn’t climb up until 9:30. The sky is darker, and it will be more difficult to take pictures! Maybe it's because I live in Shanghai at an altitude of 0 meters. I was a little tired when I climbed the tower, but I felt that everything was worth it when I climbed up. One side of the hill is the old city, and the other side is the new city. Here should be It is the highest viewing spot in Guyuan. A lot of white landscape lights were made on the hillside in the distance, which completely made up for the regret of not being able to see the starry sky that night.
On the second day after Xiji County arrived in Guyuan, we went to the "Jiangtaibao" Red Army Reunion Memorial Park, which is of great significance to the Red Army's Long March reunion. A new chapter has opened for the place.
Jiangtaibao is the last meeting in the Long March of the Red Army, which is the place that marks the victory of the Long March of the Red Army. Therefore, it is a very important place in the history of the Chinese revolution. In addition to some historical materials displayed here, there are also real residences in the past. over the house! A lot of herbs were planted around the old house, carnations, Sanqi sedum, and the local farmers were not driven away. The old grandmother who lived in the surrounding villages even took us to chat, which was very kind.
Liupan Mountain in Longde County is the last mountain that the Chinese Red Army of Workers and Peasants crossed during the Long March. The Liupan Mountain area is one of the places where the three armies of the Red Army of Chinese Workers and Peasants will join forces during the Long March. Liupanshan Red Army Long March Scenic Spot is composed of Memorial Hall, Monument, Memorial Square, Memorial Pavilion, Poem Chanting Platform and miniature landscapes of more than 10 major events that occurred during the Red Army’s Long March under construction. It is a real version of the classroom of the Long March epic.
On the third day, we went to Liupan Mountain to retrace the Long March of the Workers’ and Peasants’ Red Army. Together with our friends, we changed into uniforms, carried wooden guns, and raised the battle flag; we were divided into Red One, Red Two, Red Four, and Three A front army; under the leadership of the flag bearers, we marched all the way towards the Memorial Square, but we were a little bit out of the chain, and we were always at the end of the crane. Although there was only a 2.5-kilometer mountain road, it was also a kind of spiritual refreshment to experience the road that the Red Army walked. Let's practice. After 2-3 hours of confrontation with your body, you finally reach the finish line. You can have a Red Army meal. The taste is quite good!
In Qianzhuang Village, Longde County, there is a beautiful village where large fields of rapeseed are planted. The day before, a friend from a netizen asked me if I had gone to see the rapeseed field, and I would have a chance to see it on the third day. Originally, I only knew that there are large rapeseed terraces in Wuyuan, Jiangxi every March! I didn’t know until I came to Guyuan, Ningxia that in mid-July, the rapeseed flowers in Qianzhuang Village and Fuxiya in Longde County were just as beautiful, and no one rushed to take pictures with me! If you are as lucky as me, you can also see a flax flower. Golden yellow and purple are the most beautiful colors of this season. I heard that flax flowers were brought into Guyuan during the Silk Road, and now freshly squeezed flax oil has become a particularly famous specialty here.
Laoxiangzi in the southern suburbs of Longde County is a typical traditional village in Liupanshan District, with 98 households and 433 people in the village. In 2014, Longde County, in accordance with the positioning of "ecological and cultural tourism county", adhered to the principle of "respecting history, moderate development, repairing the old as the old, suitable for business and living", focusing on local farmers in Laoxiangzi, supplemented by investment promotion, Collect the essence of Longde farming culture, special snacks and folk art to form a large-scale operation, and strive to create a unique northwest characteristic and the most influential rural cultural tourist attraction in the country, so that tourists can experience the old alley as a "delicious and fun place" , good-looking, good-sounding "good place, and then developed into a typical rural tourism destination.
There are a lot of folk activities here, such as Qin opera performances, calligraphy and painting, paper-cutting, etc. There are also many tourists who sketch here with oil painting boards. At night, the hot pot here is very famous. There are pork chops and beef and mutton. But here They are Hui people, so be careful not to use chopsticks that have eaten pork to pick up beef and mutton pot. The price of a large portion of hot pot ranges from 138-148. The price is very affordable. It can feed 7-8 people. It tastes super delicious with some steamed buns and cakes made by local residents.
Liupanshan National Forest Park in Jingyuan County, spanning the three counties of Jingyuan, Guyuan and Longde in Ningxia, covers an area of 67,800 hectares, with a forest coverage rate of over 70% and rich and diverse animal and plant resources. It is an important water conservation forest in Northwest China Bases and autonomous region scenic spots. Located in Guyuan, Ningxia, Liupanshan National Forest Park is a purely ecological scenic spot, which consists of four parts: Xiaonanchuan, Botanical Garden, Liangdian Gorge, and Ecological Museum; among them, I think the most beautiful scenery is Xiaonanchuan, which is a forest park. The core scenic spot is formed of pure nature, with beautiful environment and beautiful scenery, consisting of ancient tree pond, acacia water, birch bend and red birch forest. When entering Xiaonanchuan, you must take the waterway and enjoy the ecological beauty along the small stream; the small woods, small streams, and sufficient oxygen are the largest forest parks in the Northwest! It rained yesterday, and the sun came out today. The light shining through the woods on the stones is really as beautiful as a fairyland.
If I have the chance to come again, I would choose late autumn, because the whole mountain here will become colorful, and the color of the leaves of Quercus liaotungensis is a watercolor painting, which is bright and attractive, no wonder it is also known as "Little Jiuzhai". I heard that there are a lot of wild animals in the park, many of which are hard to see, but in the ecological museum, there are specimens of these small animals. Because I didn't have enough time, I didn't go to the Botanical Garden, Liangdianxia and the Ecological Museum. I felt that a small Nanchuan took up half a day.
Business hours: 9:00-18:00 Tickets: 50 yuan Pengyang County After leaving the forest park, we drove all the way to Changcheng Village in Pengyang County. I heard that we arranged for us to pick the local famous red plum and apricot. I have never eaten apricots in Shanghai. I heard that they are very difficult to preserve and easy to rot. Therefore, it is recommended that we eat more free ones when picking, or we can pick some to take away. The price is very affordable, 10 yuan per catty; apricots in high places often have a long sunshine time and are easy to ripen, but if you need to take them away, you still have to pick them up. It is a little green and can be stored at room temperature for 2-3 days.
If you don't reach the Great Wall, you are not a hero. It is not the Great Wall in Beijing, but the Great Wall of the Warring States Qin Dynasty that the Red Army passed through during the Long March! The Pengyang section of the Warring States and Qin Great Wall: It was built in layers with loess, using local materials according to local conditions. Moreover, most of the soil was taken from the outside of the city wall, which formed the characteristics of high outside and low inside, steep outside and slow inside, and achieved the purpose of easy defense and difficult attack. The height of the remaining Great Wall ranges from 2 to 13 meters. In 2018, funded by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage and hosted by the Pengyang County Museum, the protection and repair project of the Warring States Qin Great Wall was implemented. Protection nets and patrol roads were built on both sides of the Great Wall.
The most beautiful terraced fields - Jinjiping Dry Farming Terraced Field Park is located in Pengyang County, Guyuan City, Ningxia. The Yanghanzuo Terraced Fields were selected as "China's Beautiful Gardens", and the Yangwa River Basin was selected as the first small watershed water conservancy scenic spot in Ningxia. There are a lot of tourists who come here for the name. If you want to take a good-looking photo here, it is recommended to go at sunset time Come on, the viewing platform is just facing west. If you are lucky, you can see Jinjiping against the red sunset; in winter, you can also see layers of snow terraces. Looking forward to the next encounter!
On the last day of Yuanzhou District, because I had to return to Yinchuan, I went back to Yuanzhou District to visit one of my longest attractions here: Mount Sumeru Grottoes! Mount Xumi Grottoes is located in Huangduobao Township, Yuanzhou District, Guyuan City, Ningxia. It is one of the top ten grottoes in China, and it is also a rare sandy Danxia landform. Below the No. 1 Grotto under the Giant Buddha in the Grottoes is the site of the northeast section of the ancient Silk Road. !
The Xumishan Grottoes were excavated in the middle and late Northern Wei Dynasty for more than 1400 years. In the Tang Dynasty, it was already a large-scale Buddhist temple, with 132 grottoes distributed on 8 cliffs, and it was called "Jingyun Temple" at that time. During the Zhengtong period of the Ming Dynasty, the eminent monk Chuoji Wangsu wrote a letter to Emperor Yingzong to give it the name "Yuanguang Temple".
The Buddha statues in the grottoes at that time could already reflect the wisdom of the local people. The colors on the figure sculptures were all pure mineral pigments, colors extracted from sapphires, and some were gold-plated.
