“The more beautiful a place is, the harder it is to get there.”

After walking through it, I found out that although I finally walked down this route, I felt it was okay. I didn’t say how difficult or dangerous it was, but as a leader (fortunately, we are still a small team this time, only 16 people), it is still a bit dangerous. Mainly It’s the first day’s itinerary: Chaodongyan, known as the cliff plank road!
After returning, the pseudo-killer summarized on bbs and suggested not to post the route to Dongyan in the future~hahahaha
However, going to Enshi this time was really beautiful, completely beyond my expectations. It was obviously the Dragon Boat Festival holiday. When everyone was crowded in the scenic area, we could hardly see anyone. We had a great time, a group of 16 Individuals, helping each other, walking and eating together~
During this three-day Dragon Boat Festival holiday, our itinerary is as follows: on the first day, we hike the cliff toward East Rock, on the second day, we hike the Qingjiang ancient riverbed, and on the third day, we relax in the Shimen River Scenic Area~
Among them, Chaodongyan is the most dangerous day on this route, walking on the edge of the cliff~
In order to train my fear of heights, before traveling, I followed the team of pseudo-killers to challenge the via ferrata in Shidu, Beijing.
「Eight Hundred Miles of Qingjiang」
Every inch is a scenery
The Qingjiang ancient riverbed is located in Lichuan City, Hubei Province, with a total length of 10 kilometers. There is no human habitation within a radius of ten miles, and the scenery is very beautiful. There are hundreds of miles of cliffs, waterfalls, proud peaks, virgin forests, ancient villages and other beautiful attractions here. It can be called the most beautiful outdoor hiking route in Lichuan.
The scenic spot is mainly composed of Yixiantian, Panda Cave, Big and Small Dragon Gates, Exclusive Village, Cave Group, Underground River, Ground Cracks, Dufeng, Elephant Trunk Mountain, Qingjiang River Gallery, etc. Among them, there are caves and caves connected , there is a mountain in the cave, there is a cave in the mountain, with dense undercurrents, numerous stone cracks, and numerous stalactites. The geological structure of the ancient river bed is relatively comprehensive and is a typical karst landform.
The ancient river bed of Qingjiang River is just like walking in a painting. It is one of the most beautiful natural scenery I have ever seen~
I visited the Sanlong Cave➕Riverbed Ruins. When I first arrived at the [Canyon Lawn], I was shocked by the beautiful scenery. After having fun for a while, it started to rain heavily. Sheltering from the rain in this hut has a unique flavor. Fortunately, it has been sunny since then. It is indeed the most beautiful outdoor hiking route in Lichuan.
Watching the rain in a wooden house is also a kind of enjoyment. The scenery outside is too beautiful to describe~
You can see a small road leading up the mountain. This is the exclusive village. There is only one family. The old man is self-sufficient, just like the Taoyuan in the world. To enter the village, you have to pay some money to the old man to buy the road, and then we visited This exclusive village is like a paradise.
Then we came to the real Qingjiang ancient river bed. The traces on it were all impacted by water. It was amazing. The river dried up, leaving these stones on it, but some stones can still hear the gurgling sound when walking on it. The sound of water~
After hiking, we returned to our accommodation. After checking in, we cleaned up and set off towards our food. I remember that we followed the navigation, and the further we walked, the more we felt that there was no path left, and it turned out that there was still a trail. It turns out that the navigation took us on a small path~
We had iron pot stew. I remember ordering 10 pounds of chicken + 10 pounds of pork ribs, and other dishes~
Wow~ After hiking, eating meat was so satisfying. The result was that even though I had hiked for three days, I was still heavier when I got back to Beijing~
After the hard hiking in the first two days, today is the last day for a leisure trip to the scenic spot. Although it is a leisure trip, it is not easy. It involves climbing up and down. Today we only have half a day to visit, and we have to take a bus from Shimen River in the afternoon. Return to Enshi.
The Shimen River Scenic Area has a perfect natural combination of "secure, ancient, dangerous and precipitous" and is the rare and most beautiful alpine karst valley landscape in the world.
The long-standing "Homo erectus site culture", the profound "Huang Sijie Tujia culture", the far-reaching "Bayan ancient road culture" and the splendid and unique "geological culture" are all perfectly preserved on the magical 30th parallel of north latitude. It has the pure original ecological characteristics of the Tujia people; and many rare plants are rich in negative oxygen ions, forming a natural air conditioner, so that the scenic spot is not cold in winter and not hot in summer. It is one of the most suitable environments for human habitation, and it is also suitable for traveling and spending summer. The perfect place to escape the summer heat.
Because generally when people come to Enshi, they first go to the famous Enshi Grand Canyon, so even during the Dragon Boat Festival, there are not many people in Shimen River Scenic Area, but this is exactly what I want, it is really less people + beautiful scenery
I walked and took photos along the way, and I especially felt that my friends who were traveling with me took photos for me, hahaha
Then we hurriedly gathered back to Enshi. Here is another little episode: I left my small wallet in the hotel in Lichuan, which contained my ID card. Then I had to send it back to Beijing. I originally wanted to say that it was okay. By the way, I wanted to spend a few more days in Enshi. I was unemployed, and the ticket bought for me by Cao Meicong Ticketing was from my last stop, Chongqing, to Beijing, so I had no choice but to go back to Beijing!
After arriving in Enshi, we sent away our friends who were in a hurry to leave. We ate at the famous Zhangguan Hezha in Enshi nearby. The fee is per person, and the Hezha and soup can be refilled indefinitely. After dinner, the pseudo-killer and I and a few teammates continued to look for the place where horses and chickens are killed, hahaha... On this trip, I fell in love with horses and chickens~
After everything was done, we got on the train back to Beijing. Lying on the train, we thought about our group of people, from strangers to familiar ones, and the two buddies from Shanghai who couldn't play with us because of the train landslide. All of this is so special. Although we may not see each other again in the future, we gave each other a very special memory on the Dragon Boat Festival in 2019. This is enough~
