2. Miaojia bacon
Guizhou is a place with many ethnic minorities, and bacon is the most distinctive delicacy of the local people. Almost every household will pickle it and hang it outside the house. Not only is the meat fragrant, but it is also particularly chewy. The more you chew, the more delicious
3. Beef in sour soup
If you want to talk about the spicyness of Guizhou, it must be hot and sour! Because Guizhou is mountainous and humid, a bowl of sour soup, no matter what is in it, is full of comfort. Of course, the beef in sour soup is really delicious, and it is so delicious!
4. Fried brook fish in sour soup
The method of this dish is very particular. First, the fish is deep-fried, and then boiled in the sour soup. There is tofu under the brook fish. When it is eaten, the tofu is already very tasty.

9. Duck feet dish
Spring is a good time when wild vegetables are plentiful. I recommend everyone to come and feel the charm of wild vegetables. We have eaten 3 kinds this time, and the favorite is this duck foot vegetable. It is fresh and delicious, and there is no pesticide at all.
10. Shaved soup
"Drinking planing soup" is a folk custom with a long history in rural areas in southwestern my country and other provinces, but it can only be enjoyed during the Chinese New Year. So now some restaurants are specially prepared for tourists to experience this custom. A group of people sit at a small table and enjoy the soup, which is really interesting~
Deng·Hongyun Jinding
Fanjing Mountain is named after "Brahma Pure Land". Just like his name, it is a pure land in today's society. When you come here, you can feel not only nature, but also a spiritual release.
Three years ago, I visited this pure land. When I first saw the Red Cloud and Golden Summit, I was shocked by the scenery in front of me. On the top of such high mountains, there is such an independent mountain, steep and mysterious. The second surprise after climbing is that the road is difficult, and it is difficult to go to Huashan. And the third part after climbing to the top is a surprise, the feeling of flying through the clouds and fog, like a city in the sky.
It is hard to forget this magical scenery. In the spring of spring, I return to Fanjing Mountain and enjoy a different beauty again.
Hongyun Jinding, also known as Xinjinding, is also known as the "City in the Sky".
The entire mountain rises from the ground, with a vertical drop of up to 100 meters. It is spectacular from a distance, but how about it up close?
Before the flow of people arrived, set off quickly with your friends to climb the Golden Summit
Are you a little scared of the cliffs?
After a little rest, the scenery in the distance is still beautiful, and the old golden dome in the distance is also very spectacular
The Cheng'en Temple, which is built on the hillside, has also become another Buddhist temple landscape on the green hillside.
The roads to the top of the Golden Summit are all carved out along the vertical mountain walls. As the altitude rises, it becomes narrower and steeper.
The further you go to the back, the more you will be integrated with the mountain.
The nearly vertical mountain road requires both hands and feet, plus a chain to climb up. Is it more difficult and dangerous than Huashan Road?
Walking through the gap between the two mountains, we will soon reach the top
The top of the golden roof is divided into two parts, connected by a bridge. On the left is the Sakyamuni Hall, on the right is the Maitreya Hall
There is a huge stone beside the temple, a platform for drying scriptures, and a platform for preaching.
Of course, I love to play and I have already started my performance!
Take a closer look at these two boulders. They have been washed by the sun, the moon, and the wind and rain, and they have been weathered into such layers.
Hongyun Jinding got its name because the red clouds and auspicious air often surround it in the morning. The reputation of "City in the Sky" is that when encountering cloudy weather, the temples on the Golden Dome are among the clouds and mists, like a city in the sky.
After climbing to the top, the perspective is wide, and you can enjoy the magnificent scenery of Fanjing Mountain.
Fanjing Mountain is a famous Buddhist mountain in Southwest China for thousands of years, and it is also the ashram of Maitreya Buddha. Therefore, Cheng'en Temple at the foot of Jinding Mountain is full of incense. You can't miss it. I heard that it is the most effective place to seek officials and children!
Up the mountain along the temple, there is a stone wall, and the gate here happens to be an excellent location to appreciate the red cloud and golden dome!
Inside the doorway is another small and different world, a world that only belongs to the Golden Dome.
Along the winding ridge path, you can enjoy another famous view of Mount Fanjing - Mushroom Stone
As a landmark scenic spot, Mushroom Stone is also surrounded by many strange stones, such as Wanjuan Sutra and Eagle Rock, which have been washed by years of wind and rain to create such a unique scenery. The power of nature is really amazing!
In addition to Mushroom Stone and Hongyun Jinding, there is also the old Jinding, the highest point of Mount Fanjing. If you have enough time, you can consider climbing to the top to enjoy the panoramic view.
Arriving at the core scenic spots such as Fanjing Mountain and Hongyun Jinding, there are two gates to choose from in the scenic spot.
One: The east line that Jiangkou enters is also the main gate for tourists to enter Fanjing Mountain.
This route is the easiest for one-day tourists. After getting started, the shuttle bus is equipped with a cableway to reach the top of the mountain. After a short walk, you can reach the core scenic spot, which is very convenient.
On the way up the mountain, you will pass a waterfall called "Guanyin Waterfall".
Like a Baixia fairy, hidden deep in the dense forest.
The rain and dew in spring have revived all kinds of young lives.
The second route: the west line in the direction of Linjiang
If you enter from the west gate, the whole climbing process will be very difficult, there are many ups and downs, and the walking time may take 3 hours to reach the core scenic spot. And the azaleas are mainly concentrated on the west line. It is recommended to play the core scenic spots well and then go to the west line, which will be relatively easy.
The first part of the road on the west line is to walk along the old Jinding rock wall. There are cliffs that drip water all the year round, which is very magical.
The back section of the western line is to walk westward along the ridge, which will save a lot of walking
There is also an extremely rare phenomenon in Fanjing Mountain, which is called Buddha's light. If you can see it, you must have Buddha's fate
Appreciation · sea of clouds
The sea of clouds, a great sight of Fanjing Mountain, is also a very rare spectacle.
Fanjing Mountain Because of the sudden rise of the mountain, the wind direction changes greatly in an instant, and the humidity is different, there will be a different sea of clouds. It is also lucky to meet it~
For two consecutive days, we encountered two different kinds of cloud seas, one with high humidity and fast moving clouds, half thick and half light surrounding the mountainside.
The other is like a layer of cotton candy spread among the mountains, and everyone praises it for its beauty. If the clouds are higher, the city of the sky will appear in front of everyone
The sea of clouds and mountains in the distance complement each other
Seeking Rhododendron Blossoms
The spring is warm and the flowers are blooming. It is time for the flowers to bloom. Every year in April, the rhododendrons in Fanjing Mountain compete to bloom, slowly from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, all over the mountains and plains, tender and tender.
The most anticipated thing is the Alpine Rhododendron.
Alpine Rhododendrons grow at an average altitude of more than 1,500 meters, and May is their blooming season every year. Moreover, there are many varieties of Alpine Rhododendron, such as Rhododendron lashes, Rhododendron Leishan, and Rhododendron grandis. At the most beautiful time, the hillside is full of flowers, which is too beautiful to behold.
The ecological maintenance is very good in Mount Fanjing, and all kinds of wild animals live freely. Look at this cute bird, fat and fat, not afraid of people at all~
The west line mainly goes down along such a ridge. In May, this place will also be the home of alpine rhododendrons, and the pink world will spread far away.
Later, I learned a word called "Babu", which means that it is about to bloom. There are really many alpine Rhododendrons in bud, as if they are always ready, open, and show their charm.
Looking around, the mountain ridges in April are full of rhododendrons, which are cute and pleasing, and the pink color makes the girl's heart full. Do you like the dark one? Or the light-colored one?
In addition to rhododendrons, the loveliness of spring can be found everywhere.
For example, this lantern flower, as its name suggests, is slightly white, a string, hanging, really like a miniature version of the lantern, small and cute, shy waiting for you to find
gradient color fern
There are many small flowers of unknown species on the side of the road, growing tenaciously
As red as a cockscomb, but it doesn't seem to be a flower
buds on branches, green
Opera·Yamugou
If you want to say that Fanjing Mountain is magnificent, then Yamugou is a kind of introverted beauty.
Yamugou, which is about 3 kilometers long, is surrounded by verdant canyons with streams flowing down
This is a place to explore and cleanse the mind, remove worries, and cultivate one's morality.
The water in the ditch is crystal clear and flows in all seasons, the mountain springs are tinkling, and the waterfalls are blooming.
The spectacular natural bridge has been integrated with the stone for a long time, and the waterfall rushes out of the stone
If it is summer, this is an excellent place to play in the water, and it is also a good place to escape from the summer heat. And now, it greets us with the freshness of spring.
The flowers are also delicate, and every creature in the valley is full of vitality
Along the boulders in the valley, it becomes narrower and narrower
Sometimes, I really like the sound of running water in the mountains
At the end of Yamugou, there is a waterfall, which is also the essence.
When playing in the water here and feeling the charm of the forest, I can't help but sigh, "Fanjing doesn't look at the mountains when he returns, and Yamu doesn't look at the water when he returns."
Le·Dong Village
Not far from the foot of Fanjing Mountain, there is a stockade - Zhaisha, where people of the Dong nationality live. This is a gathering place for the Dong ethnic minorities. The stockade is built along the river. It is now an ethnic cultural village, and it is also a place for tourists to Fanjing Mountain to settle down at night.
Everything here maintains the appearance of the original Dong village, and the renovation
The Dong village is located in the mountains, and the misty clouds add a mystery to the Dong village.
On the square stands the iconic Bell and Drum Tower of the Dong village, which is also a place where the Dong people enjoy pleasure. Beside the Bell and Drum Tower, there is a golden nanmu that has stood upright for hundreds of years, which is very precious.
Another tree is deep in the Dong village, and now it has become a place for everyone to pray
Although it is rainy, the Dongzhai Square at night gradually becomes lively
It is also after nightfall, which coincides with the bonfire party in the Dong village, and the brothers and sisters in Dong costumes join hands to dance cheerfully
In the Bell and Drum Tower, there are big songs of the Dong people every night. People gather around the bonfire and sing the songs in their hearts. In the cold April night, they are warmed by the lively songs.
Tour Tongren Grand Canyon Natural Bridge
Not far from Tongren Airport, there is such a long and narrow canyon, which is said to have a spectacular view when the plane passes by. The Tiansheng Bridge is the essence of the Grand Canyon.
Tianshengqiao Scenic Area has two parts: land and cruise. The land part mainly goes to a cave. The most unique feature of this cave is that you can see the entrance from it, which is in the shape of a heart.
From the outside when you are on a cruise, this love is more obvious. The strange karst landforms have created such an interesting scenery.
Cruises are the essence of the canyon.
Clear river water, mysterious and dangerous canyons, sometimes with sunken caves, sometimes with waterfalls falling from the sky, sometimes with lonely peaks standing alone and rugged.
The waterfalls in various poses and with different poses, each with their own merits, attract our attention and are full of admiration.
There are big and mysterious caves in some places, I really don't know what will be inside?
The cruise ship drills into narrower and narrower canyons, and is about to reach its final destination.
The waterfall hidden in the depths always hides many secrets in the forest, but it can't be seen from a distance. Just take a look from a distance.
While cruising, don't forget to take a look at the little elves in the canyon—the mandarin ducks. Mandarin ducks playing in the water are very interesting!
On the spot, the performance is deep and rainy, "Honey, don't go..."
