Today, when I visited Zhijin Cave in Guizhou, I stayed in the cave for nearly three hours without turning back on the 6.6-kilometer-long rugged viewing road. After leaving the cave, the first feeling is one word, "worth it!"
【Excerpt】Guizhou Zhijin Cave National Geological Park is located in Bijie City in the west of Guizhou Province, spanning Zhijin and Qianxi counties, most of which are located in Zhijin County, 22 kilometers away from Zhijin County. The total area of the park is 170 square kilometers, with an altitude of 900-1670 meters. Zhijin Cave Scenic Spot is the main scenic spot of the park, mainly composed of underground karst caves, which is the core of the whole geopark. The modeling stone covers an area of 17.39 square kilometers.
We have been to Guizhou once, and there was no Zhijin Cave in the itinerary that time with a group tour. Later I heard that the Zhijin Cave is super good, but I don’t know why Guizhou didn’t publicize it much, so many tourists who came to Guizhou didn’t go here. This time we are still traveling with a group, and there is still no Zhijin Cave in the tour. So we went to Guiyang one day in advance and participated in the local one-day tour on our own, which finally realized our wish to visit Zhijin Cave.
Get on the bus at the gate of Dachanglong Supermarket near Jiefang Road Gymnasium in Guiyang at 7:30 in the morning. It was a CMB, and the tour guide was a girl of the Li ethnic group. It was raining outside the window, and I started driving on the highway, and soon there would be mountain roads or tunnels. 9:04 In the heavy rain, I saw the road sign of Zhijindong Cave Global Geopark. It took nearly two hours to reach Zhijin Cave.
On the rocks at the entrance of Zhijin Cave, there are inscriptions written by famous people for Zhijin Cave. Judging from these stone inscriptions, we all praise Zhijin Cave as the most wonder of karst caves in the world. This makes us have the urge to enter the cave for viewing.
Walking into the Zhijin Cave, it feels like you have stepped into a magical underground world. The world is full of weirdness and fantasy.
Zhijin Cave is indeed a national geological park. As soon as we entered, we were dazzled by the ever-changing geological wonders in front of us!
Suddenly, light penetrated into a place, and there was a skylight that opened wide outwards!
The man-made viewing stone path in Zhijin Cave winds and circles between countless stone mountains and cliffs, going up for a while and going down for a while.
The most spectacular are the huge halls supported by tall stone pillars, which are definitely far more magnificent and strange than any stone buildings in the world.
The countless weird "buildings" in front of me cannot be described in words. They are decorated with colorful lights, sometimes like a frightening group of monsters, sometimes like a mythical temple outside the sky. What the shape is, it is best for the tourists to guess by themselves.
It is said that it takes thousands of years for a stalactite to grow such a length. But so many stone pillars and piers in front of us are so tall, what kind of power should nature have!
The stalactite pillars in the stone hall have been connected together since one day. Such a miracle will happen in the cave sooner or later. Looking at such a scene, people are too small in front of nature!
The shapes of the stalactites in Zhijin Cave are varied, some are like wolves, tigers and leopards, some are like monsters and ghosts, some are like monks worshiping Buddha, etc., just see what they look like.
The most peculiar landscape in Zhijin Cave is the 17-meter-high stalactite boulder known as the "Bawang Helmet". Under the display of lights, it looks like a majestic helmet of an ancient Chinese general.
There are also small "stone carvings" in the cave, like innocent and cute little animals, like slim girls. ...
Standing tall here are the stone carvings of gods or Bodhisattvas, each vivid.
This place is like an underwater world, with seaweed, sea reefs and underwater creatures, and there is no shortage of everything.
Where there is water in the cave, the level is like a mirror, and the reflection of the stone mountain and stone forest is even more mysterious. ,
Shifeng and Shibi are the most common
What a bonsai!
Here is a foreigner with a big nose, is he telling a western myth?
I don't know how long I have been walking in the cave, I just feel that it is winding up and down, and I keep walking in the direction of the viewing path, looking at my phone, I have been walking for more than two hours.
Finally, I came out of a small "stone cave door". Even though it was rainy outside, the light made people blind for a while.
Sure enough, the charm is endless. After visiting the cave for nearly three hours, I still feel that there is still more to say.
Zhijin Cave in Guizhou, we feel that the content inside is too rich. Except that there is no water cave that requires a boat like some caves, Zhijin Cave has all the cave landscapes we have seen in the past. The scale and connotation of Zhijin Cave surpass other caves, so the "No. 1 Cave in the World" praised by the inscription at the entrance of the cave must be Zhijin Cave!
