I visited Guizhou, Sichuan, and Chongqing N times. This time, in order to pick up the gaps, I specially designed a trip and called three friends. It lasted for 18 days: renting a car and driving twice, traveling on high-speed rail 4 times, and traveling with a group once. There are both sea, land and air. Today, in the form of pictures and texts, we will entertain readers.

Zunyi Xinzhou Airport
DIY6/18: It was nearly late at night at Zunyi Xinzhou Airport. After staying at the airport business hotel, the car rental company delivered the car to your door as scheduled the next day. Our first target is Hailongtun, located in the southwest of Zunyi and is currently the only world cultural heritage site in Guizhou Province. Its story dates back to 600 years ago, when the Yang family ruled the Bozhou area for centuries and established a chieftain system similar to an independent kingdom. During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, the conflict between the ruler Yang Yinglong and the court intensified, resulting in a huge war. This military fortress hidden in the mountains and carefully built by generations eventually turned to dust. Today, we visited the Hailongtun ruins known as the Unbreakable Ruins. It has several lines of defense, multiple pass gates, and palace buildings. Due to the difficulty of climbing the road and the development did not keep up, I only climbed Tongzhu Pass, Tiezhu Pass, and Feihu Pass. It is a small pity that I didn't reach the top of the mountain.

Bozhou Tusi City is a newly built project. You must pass here to reach Hailongtun. There are tourist centers, restaurants, entertainment venues, farmhouses and various B & Bs.

The road to the pass is almost vertical and very difficult to climb. It is called the "ladder".
Second, when you come out from Hailongtun to Loushanguan, you enter the urban area. The venue of the Zunyi Conference is NO1 in Zunyi. No matter how tight the time is, you have to go and see it.

The venue is located in the urban area, with narrow roads and many cars.

During the epidemic, many indoor venues were closed, including showrooms.

Leave a photo as a souvenir!
Third, the car arrived at Loushanguan at around 3:30 p.m. By this time, the sky had cleared up and it was the best time of the day. The scenic spot is located about 50 kilometers northeast of Zunyi. In 1935, the Red Army won its first victory here since the Long March. For this reason, Chairman Mao wrote the famous poem "Remembering Qin E. Loushanguan ". From the tourist center, we took the scenic bus straight up the 1200-meter-high Xifeng Terrace, then to the glass plank road, then back to the Yanming Tower, Changkong Bridge, then to the Poetry Monument, Guanlou, and back to the tourist center. The whole trip was very smooth and orderly.

DIY6/20: Stay in Zunyi that day, and drive north early the next morning. The famous Moutai Distillery is located in Renhuai Town, from Zunyi to Chishui. If you can go and have a look, you will not hesitate.

It was already past 1 o'clock in the afternoon when the bus arrived in Bing 'an Town. After lunch, we went to the Great Falls. The entire Chishui Danxia Tourist Area covers a large area. For us, tickets for the tour are free (all tickets were free during the epidemic in Guizhou Province), but the round trip of the sightseeing bus is 20 yuan, and if you need to take the elevator, it will be 20 yuan per trip. Although this waterfall is not as famous as Huangguoshu, the experience effect is not bad at all. The drop height of the waterfall is even greater than Huangguoshu.

Foguang Rock is far away from the Great Waterfall, and it is almost impossible to visit two scenic spots in one day, so we chose Bing 'an Town to stay. We visited Bing 'an Ancient Town in the morning and evening. The ancient town was also a distribution center for Sichuan salt in history, but it was also very famous on the Long March. Lin Biao's army once lived here, and it was nearby where Chishui was crossing four times, so the red atmosphere was still very strong.

DIY6/21: Foguang Rock is also about 25 kilometers away from Bing 'an Town, one in the east and the other in the west. After driving to the scenic spot, you also have to take the Jingjiao bus to enter, and then continue to climb the mountain along the road. Foguang Rock has a radius of 1117 meters long and a drop of 385 meters high. It is known as the "crown of Danxia in the world". Surprisingly, there is also a waterfall in the center that floats down.

After visiting Foguang Rock, the tour in Guizhou is over. We drove to the "Yaoba Ancient Town" not far away, but in Hejiang, Luzhou, Sichuan. Yaoba is one of the top ten ancient towns in China. It is located at the junction of the three provinces of Guizhou, Sichuan and Chongqing. It has developed commerce and many historical relics that are well preserved. There is the Zhou Mansion of Wu Juren, the former residence of the famous second-generation director Ling Zifeng, and the showroom of the famous critic Wang Chaowen. The ancient town is different from the Jiangnan water town. It has honest folk customs and unique architecture. It is the best choice to experience the folk customs of western Sichuan.

Luzhou is only about 27 kilometers away from Yaoba. There are scenic spots such as Fangshan and Luzhou Laojiao Ruins in the urban area. Due to limited time, we chose the Bell and Drum Tower in the city center. Stay in Luzhou that day without notice.

DIY6/22: Drive 80 kilometers directly to the national scenic spot "Southern Sichuan Bamboo Sea". Unfortunately, the weather didn't help. The scenic area was raining heavily, shrouded in smoke, and the visibility was poor. Moreover, the system of entering the scenic spot has changed. Private cars are no longer allowed to enter the scenic spot, and they have changed to a scenic bus stop style. Therefore, I imagined that my accommodation plans in the scenic spot would be disrupted, and I visited Xianyudong, Tianbao Village, Jade Corridor and colorful waterfalls as recommended. I wanted to take a panoramic view of Guanhai Tower, but unfortunately I was under maintenance. In order to see the panoramic view, Xiao Chen and I each paid 70 yuan and took the sightseeing cableway back and forth.

After swimming in "Southern Sichuan Bamboo Sea", we went directly to Xingwen County, which took nearly 2 hours to drive 70 kilometers. Go to "Xingwen Shihai Dongtian Scenic Area" early the next morning. It is located in southeastern Sichuan. Although it is a national-level scenic spot, few people visit it. And everyone who has visited praised it. There are not only strange mountains and rocks, but also cave fairyland, but also the customs of ethnic minorities in southwest China. There are many things to see and rich content.

From here, take the Jingjiao Bus back to the Visitor Center, which costs 50 yuan for the whole round trip.
After visiting Shilin Dong Township, I finished my Chinese meal and drove more than 130 kilometers to Yibin, the hometown of Wuliangye. The car was returned as scheduled. At this time, the first phase of our journey came to an end. Next, we will rely on public transportation to complete the second phase of the journey.
DIY6/24: Take the G2232 high-speed railway to Chengdu East. Choose the "7 Days Inn" hotel chain, which is very close to the station. Xiao Chen and I went to Jinsha Ruins Park and Kuanzhai Alley, and Xiao Yang and Lao Hu went to Wuhou Temple. On the 25th, I participated in the "Blackwater Two Days and One Night Tour".

The site was discovered in 2001 and unearthed the sunbird Jinbo, now a world heritage symbol, and a gold mask similar to Sanxingdui.

DIY6/25: We participated in "Blackwater Two Days and One Night Tour". Heishui is a county in Aba Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture and takes about 5 hours from Chengdu. Because the road from Mao County to Heishui was under renovation, it was not until 3 p.m. to reach the destination. The county administration of Heishui was Maoergai during the Red Army period, and the Dagu Iceberg was the last snow-capped mountain climbed by the Red Army,"Taichi Snow Mountain."
On this day, the weather was very good, with blue skies and white clouds. Because the scenic area required reservations, we could only visit the "Naizigou" outside the scenic area, known as the colorful forest, and browse Zangzhai Jiazu, Luolicuo, and Yangrong Village one by one.
I stayed in black water that day, and early the next morning, when I pushed the window and looked, it started to rain. I had no choice but to let the situation go.It still takes 50 minutes to drive from the scenic spot to the cableway station. The cableway then took us to the top of the mountain 4800 meters. Due to the bad weather, we could only admire her shy face on the snowy mountains under the blue sky and white clouds.。

From Heishui back to Chengdu, there was wind and rain on the way, coupled with road construction and traffic jams. It was not until 10:30 p.m. that I returned to Chengdu West. Fortunately, I caught the last subway and successfully returned to my hotel in Chengdu East.
DIY6/27: In the morning, take the 8:27 bullet train to Jianmen Pass. After getting off the bus, you will leave your luggage at the station and charter a car for 40 yuan to go directly to the Jianmenguan Visitor Center.Jianmen Pass, we are from the North Gate-No. 1 Cableway-Fairy Corridor-Bird Road-Glass Plank Road-Liangshan Pavilion-Stalagmite Peak-Xianyun Inn-Leiming Bridge-Guanlou-South Gate. It took more than 4 hours to walk, which was the most tiring of the entire trip.

After coming down from Jianmen Pass, they missed a train, so the four people rented a car directly to Guangyuan and stayed at the Thyssen Hotel.
DIY6/28: Charter a car to Mingyue Gorge, Thousand Buddha Cliff. There are five must-visit places in Guangyuan: Jianmen Pass, Zhaohua Ancient City, Mingyue Gorge, Qianfo Cliff, and Huangze Temple. I gave up Zhaohua Ancient City due to time constraints, because tomorrow I will go to the better "Langzhong Ancient City".

Early morning in Guangyuan
Mingyue Gorge is located in Chaotian District, more than ten kilometers away. It has two entrances and exits, one of which was closed due to the epidemic. There were six roads that once appeared here one after another; the Jialing River Road in the middle has the ancient Pre-Qin plank road, the original 108 National Highway, and the Jinniu Road on the left, and the Baocheng Railway and the Trackers Bird Road on the right.
The Thousand Buddha Cliff along the Jialing River was built in the Northern Wei Dynasty and flourished in the Tang Dynasty. It has more than 950 statues and has been basically intact after thousands of years. It has been listed as the first batch of key cultural relics protection units by the state.
Huangze Temple is the living temple of Wu Emperor Zetian. There is her true appearance golden body in it, which is very precious.

DIY6/29: In the morning, Guangyuan took K544 to Langzhong. Pay 20 yuan to mail your luggage at the exit, and charter a car to the "Aoshan Shengyao Scenic Area" for another 20 yuan. After the tour, walk to the "Nanjin Ancient Town" at the foot of the mountain, pass through the ancient town to the ferry, and take the ferry to the ancient city of Langzhong opposite. Go to Huaguang Tower, then charter a car to the White Tower opposite the Jialing River (80 yuan) to take a panoramic view of Langzhong (directly deliver it to Zhangfei Temple on West Street on the return journey). After visiting Zhangfei Temple, head east along the street and pass the Zhongtian Tower to the Western Sichuan Administrative Office, Gongyuan, and Confucian Temple. I spent one day visiting all the attractions in Langzhong City. At 18:30, take train C5846 to Chongqing North and check into Yishi Hotel.

DIY6/30: At the end of the second phase in Chongqing, we still choose to rent a car after weighing the pros and cons. After picking up the car, I went to Wulong, which is more than 170 kilometers away. Judging from the weather forecast, it was cloudy that day. When I drove on the highway, I realized that something was wrong. A yellow warning for heavy rain came from the radio. At about 9 o'clock, a heavy rain arrived as scheduled, and the rain was pouring. Almost nothing could be seen outside the window. The Xingxi Expressway circled on the top of the mountain and did not encounter landslides or mudslides.
When I arrived in Fairy Town, it was first white. When I arrived at the tourist center, I was told that the Tiansheng Sanqiao Scenic Area was temporarily closed due to water accumulation. So I had to borrow a hotel first. At about 2 p.m., I decided to visit Xiannv Mountain Scenic Area first. Nazhi, the situation on the top of the mountain is different, and the clouds and mist are dissipating. Xiannv Mountain is a national-level tourist resort built by Chongqing that integrates tourism, leisure and camping. It has forests, grasslands and jungles. It is known as "Eastern Switzerland". However, to enter the scenic spot, you don't need to get off the bus. You can enter directly by scanning the code.

At 3:30, the Tiansheng Third Bridge reopened, and we entered the scenic spot as the last group of tourists that day. Tiansheng Sanqiao is a world natural heritage site, a national 5A scenic spot, and a national geological park. We took the scenic bus to enter, took the elevator to the bottom of the ditch, and visited Tianlong Bridge, Qinglong Bridge, and Heilong Bridge in the ditch. The one-and-a-half-hour journey was just right.

DIY7/1: When Wulong comes out, we go directly to Hechuan. There are two main attractions: one is Laitan Ancient Town and the other is Hook Fish City. Laitan is also one of the top ten ancient towns in China. It began in the Song Dynasty. The existing city wall was built during the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty. It has three cliffs and one is facing the river. It is more appropriate to call the Laitan Ancient Village. The "Two Buddhist temples" inside are well-known.
Gouyu City in Hechuan was even more important. During the Southern Song Dynasty, Mongolian Khan Mengge led his army to destroy the Song Dynasty. When marching here, he encountered Hechuan soldiers and civilians and fought hard to resist. Relying on the special terrain of the fishing city, they persisted for 36 years. The collapse of Mengge almost changed world history.

DIY7/2: Starting from Hechuan early in the morning, I picked up a "Wenfeng Ancient Street" on the way, and went to Dazu to visit the famous "Dazu Stone Carvings". Because the highway was not yet open to traffic, it took a full 2 hours to drive. Dazu stone carvings are widely distributed, but they are mainly concentrated in Baoding Mountain and Beishan areas. They began in the early Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Song Dynasty. They represent the highest level of world grotto art from the 9th to 13th centuries and were included in the World Heritage List in 1999.

DIY7/3: Today is the last day in Chongqing. Considering the complexity of Chongqing's transportation, I retired the car in advance to appreciate the style of Chongqing's subway and light rail. We follow our schedule: in the morning, we will visit Ciqikou Ancient Town, Zhizidong, Baigongguan, and Liziba. Return to the hotel to rest at noon, and depart at 4 o'clock to take night shots at the Yangtze River Cableway, Jiefangbei, Hongya Cave, and Qianzaimen Bridge.
