Guangxi border highway of New National Highway 219

During the Spring Festival of 2018, in order to see the Yunnan Herringbone Bridge and Bise Village on the Sino-French Railway, I did not take the nearest passage from Guizhou to Yunnan, but chose to go south to Guilin, directly to Dongxing, a port city in Guangxi, and then to Yunnan via the border highway. The journey of New National Highway 219 starts from the mouth of Beilun River in Guangxi.

Starting from the zero point of the new national highway 219, we will visit the China-Vietnam border, cross the Beilun River to Vietnam for a walk, and pick pear tips there at noon.

I took a look at the old town of Naliang on the way. Time has passed and the buildings are dilapidated. I can only rely on the descendants of the old overseas Chinese in the town to tell the story of the past. The existence of China in Southeast Asia is proved by the ability of the old overseas Chinese to do business.

I met the owner of a magnificent old building. He repeatedly emphasized that his grandfather earned his hard money in Nanyang and saved the money to return to his hometown to build this foreign-style building. He was definitely not an exploitative class. He also warmly invited us to come in and have tea.

From the Daqing State Boundary Monument No. 1 to the Daqing State Boundary Monument No. 53, instead of taking the highway, I slowly traveled along the China-Vietnam border road for a few days. After China and Vietnam peacefully coexisted, the exchanges between border residents also increased.

The border road is connected to the mountains and waters of Vietnam. Vietnam is just a few meters away. The scenery is original. born The Chinese government has a friendly attitude towards the border residents of Vietnam. In many places, the border residents can travel freely. It turns a blind eye to the small smuggling in Vietnam and allows Chinese tourists to visit the border residents in Vietnam. mutual Perhaps the Chinese border residents have more ways to get rich, so they give the opportunity to do business with tourists to the Vietnamese side, and the Chinese border residents are not allowed to do business in the Vietnamese market.

The Detian Falls, shared by China and Vietnam, does not have a big enough drop and looks unimpressive.
