In this hot summer, the scorching sun will really make people dry and hot. The cool Guizhou has become the first choice for us to escape the summer heat in Sichuan and Chongqing, because it is close, and it takes only three or four hours to drive there. , there are high-speed trains and planes to get there without driving, which is very convenient.
We searched the Internet for a while, and read the introduction on the Internet that there is a Youshan River scenic spot in Dafang, Guizhou, which is 1,900 meters above sea level, so it is very cool there. The ancient towns of Ege and Shexiang are very playable, so we collectively decided to go here.

DAY1 Cui Suba Attractions

Located in the west of Youshan River Scenic Area, with an average altitude of 1,800 meters, it spans two administrative villages, Longshan Village and Qishu Village, Xingsu Township. The mu large meadow or prairie is the commanding height of the scenic spot and is a typical alpine grassland. There are mainly New Zealand pastures, Shengquan Mountain, Xixin Spring, Ancient Post Road, Plateau Natural Wetland Park and other scenic spots.

I really like Cui Suba, there are various types of RVs, star rooms, cabins, etc.
There are several types of RVs in Cui Suba, including quadruple rooms with mahjong, quadruple rooms with starry sky windows, and of course cheap and high-quality double rooms. The Star Room is a type of room, all of which are romantic double rooms with double beds. The cabin is the largest, with two bedrooms, a large living room with a fireplace, a tea room, a viewing balcony and a small cozy garden.


A friend once asked me: Where is the most romantic place I have been to, and where is the most suitable place for two people to go hand in hand. In fact, there is no romance, but whether you have romantic feelings. Cui Suba is a place where people can't help being romantic.

Just arrived here, the yellow-green scene on the other side of the mountain made us feel like we were in the western United States, with verdant pastures all over the hills, a winding and clean asphalt road in the middle of the pasture, and amazingly beautiful wild flowers, and leisurely Niu Niu who eat grass, the beauty of Cui Suba is amazing. . . . We are ecstatic, rushing to the green waves...  

There are also karting, luminous track, tent hotel, grass skiing, small train shop, holographic projection, outdoor audio, camping concerts and other formats. You can enjoy "wild" flowers, play "wild" and enjoy "wild" fun. Feel the "wild" charm of the mountain.

If you want to say that the most attractive place to come here in summer, it must be camping on the grassland. After visiting the Damei River and Mountains in Youshan River Scenic Area during the day, you can camp at the Cui Suba Camping Base at night, enjoying the magnificent starry sky and colorful night scenery.

Let’s take a group of portraits. Cui Suba’s portraits are really good. We are so happy to shoot them. The girls don’t feel tired at all under such a beautiful scenery. They are very suitable for photographers like us. swing.
The light is best in the morning and evening, and the portraits are very soft. If you encounter the sun in the daytime, you can hide under the tent and take pictures. We will summarize it later. Cui Suba is very good at taking pictures. Everyone The reason for not being tired is that the air here is good, the content of negative oxygen ions is high, and the oxygen is sufficient. Therefore, people will not be tired in terms of the same amount of activity as in the urban area.

Therefore, this is also a very good base for wedding photography. There are various themes, including caravan themes, star room themes, tent themes and prairie themes. Go-karts and grass skiing are interspersed by the way. The shots are absolutely amazing. Next time there are guests If you are looking for me to take a wedding dress, I definitely recommend Cui Suba International Real Estate Camp. First, the summer is very cool, and you will not sweat or wear makeup. Second, the altitude is high but the oxygen content is high. At the same time, it has blue sky, white clouds, alpine meadows and Wild flowers, cattle and sheep, a beautiful pastoral scenery, no matter how you shoot it, it looks good, highly recommended, highly recommended!

Go-karts and grass skiing are also one of the attractions here. The go-karts use a very powerful imported engine. For safety, the scenic spot has deliberately reduced the horsepower, but such a horsepower makes it impossible for the aerial camera to catch up.
Step on the accelerator a little bit, it is passion and speed, the feeling of pushing your back instantly makes your adrenaline soar, and being a woman like wind is really exciting!
Grass skiing is also the same. Looking at the slope that is not steep, when I put it down, it gets faster and faster. It is so fast that I feel that I am going to fly off the cliff, but it stops when I reach the flat ground. Jump, but very exciting to say.

The Grand Canyon is very close to the Cui Suba RV camp, and it takes only 10 minutes to drive there, so we went to see it before dark.
We came to the overlooking platform of the Grand Canyon scenic spot. The valley below is called Houhe. This is the upper reaches, and it is also the most concentrated section of this section of scenic spots. The peaks, the undulating peaks and valleys, can be described as uncanny workmanship. Looking carefully at the opposite side, you can see Nantianmen, Husband and Wife Rock, Elephant Trunk Hill and other scenic spots in the Nantianmen Tourist Area. These are one of the most unique scenic spots in Youshanhe Scenic Area.
Looking from the Cuisuba grassland or canyon on the opposite side of the scenic spot, the other side of Nantianmen is unique, like an elephant standing among the mountains, stretching its nose to drink the water of the Houhe River, so it is called "Elephant Trunk Mountain". ". The Elephant Trunk Mountain is steep and integrated with the canyon landscape, which is very spectacular.


As the orange-red sunset set over the hills and the dark blue night fell, our most anticipated bonfire barbecue party began.

The explosive music sounded, and first danced around the bonfire. Everyone held hands and feet, and danced happily to the music. It’s not too much to dance with a group of demons. Just jump as you want, don't care about the shape, only care about the meaning.

It's a pity that after dancing for a long time, the wood in the bonfire suddenly collapsed. I wanted to play a guitar and sing a song to enliven the atmosphere, but now I can only eat barbecue, but everyone is hungry, so it happened If you like it, let’s go, here we come to barbecue, haha.

I really want to give a thumbs up to the chef at the Cui Suba National Camping Base. The barbecue ingredients are very rich, including chicken legs, chicken wings, prawns, pork belly, pork ribs, lotus root slices, potato slices, leeks, onions, etc.

All kinds of grilled meat sizzled, and drops of hot oil slowly slid down the lines of the plump meat, which was fascinating. Sniffing carefully and smelling slowly, the greedy worms were quickly aroused. In particular, the meat is marinated very well and very tasty. Not only is it fragrant when roasted, but it also tastes tender and smooth, delicious! Oh, by the way, there is also Dafang tofu, my God, it is delicious in the world, the delicious taste reaches the tip of the tongue coating; the bean fragrance in my mouth makes me want to eat it, there are endless taste feasts, and the deliciousness is blooming at this moment! It's so delicious I want to swallow my tongue! Anyway, once the Dafang tofu is cooked, it will light up in seconds, and it tastes better than meat! There's only one word to describe it: Absolutely!

There is also the rice wine here, which is fragrant and slightly sweet. Yes, it is a bit similar to our usual fermented glutinous rice, but the degree is higher, about ten degrees, but the stamina is quite strong, and you can drink it after a drink That's it! The porridge cooked with fresh corn is also not to be missed. It is soft and glutinous, with a fragrant and sweet taste, very delicious.


Of course, we have also tasted the Chinese food at Cui Suba Restaurant, and the taste is also very good. The dishes are all top-grade and delicious. Guizhou-style dishes also pay attention to dipping in water. The taste of dipping seasoning is also different, which is very particular. Generally speaking, when you come to Cui Suba, you can eat well, live and have fun, it’s not a problem.

night falls

tips:
The price of a caravan ranges from more than 400 to more than 800 depending on the type of room and facilities. The wooden house starts at 1,000 yuan, and the starry sky room is the same as more than 500 yuan.
Now the scenic spot has launched a new group activity package for 8 people.
Type A: 368 yuan per person, including all the play items of the Cui Suba camping base, as well as accommodation, afternoon tea, self-service barbecue, bonfire air concert, and private butler.
Type B: includes all the items in Type A, and includes the Xianyutun Scenic Spot on the second day (tickets for Xianyu Peak, glass plank road, and cableway)
Both must be in a group of 8 people to enjoy the discount. I personally think it's a good deal.

DAY2 Xianyutun Scenic Area, Ancient Ginkgo, Mu'e Pavilion, Shexiang Ancient Town

A good night's dream, I slept very well in the RV. The cool wind passed through the RV at night, taking away the heat, leaving us cool and cool. We didn't even turn on the air conditioner. The night of more than ten degrees is perfect for a good night's sleep Yes, the thickness of the quilt on the bed is very suitable, the pillows and mattresses are also very comfortable, the bathroom has a lot of hot water, the bath towels are also made of pure cotton, very thick and absorbent, and the supplies in the entire caravan are very good, comparable to 5-star hotels If you are hungry, you can eat instant noodles. 8 yuan a bucket is definitely not an outrageous price, and there are 4 packs of Wangzai milk for 16 yuan. It is really a conscience camp.

I woke up refreshed the next day because I slept soundly, and the fatigue of the previous day was fully recovered. We set off to Xianyutun Scenic Area today.

【Xianyutun Scenic Area】
Bijie in summer has no crowded holiday crowds, but it has cool weather, and because it is in the mountains, the rich negative ion content will make you feel more comfortable.

It is here that there is also a niche scenic spot that is as steep as Fanjing Mountain—Xianyutun Scenic Spot. There is a razor-like mountain in the scenic spot—Xianyu Peak, and there is actually a temple on the top of the mountain.

Xianyu Tunding is 1,445 meters above sea level, and the Houhe riverbed at the foot of the mountain is 1,040 meters, with a relative height difference of 405 meters. Among these mountains, this height is not surprising. The famous place is the Guanyin Temple on the top of the mountain. The journey into the mountain is extremely difficult. When you climb to the top, the small Guanyin Temple stands tall. The legend tells that the Guanyin Bodhisattva worshiped in the story is very spiritual. Therefore, the construction of incense sticks has continued, thus giving the scenic spot a layer of solemnity. It can be said that "the mountain is not high, but there are fairies and spirits". I also pray for the health of my parents and the peace of the world here. I hope that there will be no epidemics and wars in the world.

The picture below is the aerial picture of Xianyutun, standing in the canyon, which is amazing.

The Youshanhe Scenic Area where Xianyutun is located is actually only a mountain away from the famous Baili Rhododendron, but its reputation really doesn't stand out. If you like the original scenery in the forest, I think this scenic spot will be a particularly good choice for you. Because of the typical karst peaks and valleys cut in the terrain, the traffic becomes difficult, and therefore part of the original forest and a large area of ​​secondary forest in the scenic area are preserved.

The natural forest resources, the picturesque real mountains and rivers are simply amazing! The mountains here are majestic and unrestrained for a while, stretching and falling for a while, calm and deep for a while, and stretching gently for a while, which will make you intoxicated and unable to extricate yourself.

If you think Xianyutun is too steep to climb, then the glass plank road and wooden plank road above the cliff can also give you a thrill among the mountains! It takes about 1 hour to complete the whole journey. After the walk, maybe the fear of heights will no longer exist, right?

Finally, take the cableway back and stop in the middle of the journey. Don’t panic. It’s for everyone to enjoy the beauty of the canyon and listen to the sound of the valley, the crisp calls of the birds and the gentle call of the mountain wind. , coupled with the eye-full green mountains and green peaks, this place is really: It's not like a fairy is like a fairy, so leisurely and happy. Then quietly enjoy the beauty of this moment, it is rare to be quiet once in the troubled world, and the impetuous mind can also be purified once.

If you dare not visit because of fear of heights, there are also scenic spots such as Nantianmen and Liangcha River for you to visit. Looking towards the front of the mountain in the Grand Canyon, you can see the strange rocks represented by natural Buddha statues, Nantianmen, Shenbi Peak, Husband and Wife Rock, Wangfu Stone, Carp Leaping Longmen, Feilai Stone and so on. So when you come here, you will not be bored, but will be full of energy.

There are also many rare plants in the area. You can bring your children there, and you can also learn about popular science. Such a candidate tourist destination that integrates scenic tours, canyon tours, and aerial tours will definitely satisfy you.

When you come to the charming Youshan River, you have to marvel at the uncanny workmanship of nature again. The scenic spot is also the victory of mountains, rocks and flowing springs, and it gathers the majestic and precipitous rhyme. The resources are mainly strange peaks, strange stones, beautiful water and original ecological forest resources. Lord, it can be said to be the epitome of a typical karst forest wonder, and it is a good place for outdoor experience, outward bound training and popular science investigation. It is a unique gene bank of animals and plants. The forest coverage rate of the whole territory is more than 80%. According to the multidisciplinary investigation of the scenic spot by the Kunming Survey and Design Institute of the State Forestry Administration in August 2003, there are 315 families, 781 genera, 1509 species of plants and 102 main species of animals in the area. There are national protected plants such as Ginkgo biloba, Taxus chinensis, Davidia involucrata and Fujian cypress growing in continuous patches. Rare wild animals include clouded leopard, forest musk deer, macaque, pangolin, golden pheasant and so on. It is a natural big air conditioner and big oxygen bar. "Go to Hainan Island in winter and live in Youshan River in summer".

In recent years, the global temperature has gradually warmed up. When the surrounding "stove cities" such as Chongqing and even Guiyang are experiencing intense heat, the air here is fresh and cool. The altitude of the scenic spot is mostly between 850 and 1890 meters. The climate is mainly warm temperate and humid. The mountainous three-dimensional microclimate has obvious characteristics. The annual average temperature is 10.5-13.6 ℃. Jichang is a rare eco-tourism resort.

Get off at Yuchong Station of Hangrui Expressway and walk up the beautiful Yuchong River for more than 10 kilometers to reach the group of ancient ginkgo trees.
