Border tour recommendations for border tours

"I have finished sweating for a year and climbed all the mountains for three years." On the first day after returning to Shanghai from Guangxi, my traveling companion angrily changed his MSN signature and complained about the weather in Guangxi. Hot and mountainous. Indeed, in five days, we visited the entire "China-Vietnam Border Landscape Gallery" including Longhu Mountain in Nanning, Wuming Yiling Rock in Nanning, and Tongling Grand Canyon in Jingxi. Naturally, we walked a lot and sweated a lot, but the journey was tiring. , but I enjoyed the infinite beauty, especially at Detian Waterfall in Guangxi - the Sino-Vietnam border. With a casual glance, my sight has broken into Vietnam; with one easy step, I can cross the two countries with one step.

At night, sleep with the sound of water on your pillow

In the evening, facing the afterglow of the setting sun, a group of people came to Detian Villa. Detian Villa is a hotel located in the Detian Waterfall Scenic Area. The doors and windows of the room face the waterfall. Push the door open and open the window, and you can enjoy the scenery of Vietnam on the other side of Detian Waterfall and Guichuan River.

The sunset turned the sky red and illuminated the water of the waterfall. I saw a waterfall hanging down in the mountains. The wide waterfall was cut into two by the mountain. One side is smaller in Vietnam, and the other side is the spectacular Detian Waterfall in my country.

Detian Waterfall spans China and Vietnam. It is 200 meters wide, with a drop of 70 meters and a depth of 60 meters. It has three levels of falls. Its average water flow is five times that of Huangguoshu Waterfall, making it the largest in Asia. The large transnational waterfall is even called "the most beautiful in China".

In the dead of night, it was pitch black around the waterfall. The Vietnamese villages on the other side of the Guichun River did not even have electricity. Under the black screen, the only sound around was the sound of the waterfall. The waterfall beats the rhythm, keeps beating, and the beautiful lullaby is endless. On such a night, it is best to fall asleep with the sound of the waterfall on your pillow. The sunset over the waterfall was so unforgettable that my companions were looking forward to the sunrise the next day. They set their alarm clocks before going to bed at night, intending to watch the sunrise the next morning, but unexpectedly - how could the sun rise in the west? Even though she got up every hour at four, five, and six o'clock to explore until dawn, she naturally didn't see the sunrise over Detian Waterfall.

Although the sunrise is not visible, an even brighter natural gift - the rainbow greets everyone early in the morning. An arc of rainbow crossed over the waterfall, with red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple, the colors were bright and extremely dazzling, attracting photographers to line up and compete to take pictures.

After admiring the waterfall under the rainbow, everyone took a bamboo raft and planned to get close to the waterfall. A small boat floats on the river, getting closer and closer to the waterfall. The torrent rushes down the mountain, and the wet waterfall water sprinkles on the body, which is extremely refreshing.

Since Detian Waterfall is a transnational waterfall, when you come to Detian, you must go to the China-Vietnam border near the waterfall. A gray-brown stone tablet stands on a rugged mountain road. The stone tablet is engraved with "China's Guangxi Boundary". This is the boundary tablet that separates the border between China and Vietnam. Tourists often hug and take photos against the boundary markers, and then jump up and down next to the boundary markers, crossing their feet while shouting "I've gone abroad, I'm back home", playing the childish "go abroad, come back home" endlessly. game. "Guilin's landscapes are the best in the world, and Guilin is everywhere in Guangxi." This sentence is quite appropriate to describe Mingshi's countryside. After visiting Detian Waterfall, if you have time, you can go to Mingshi Pastoral Garden, which is 36 kilometers away. It is also a famous scenic spot in Detian Scenic Area and has the reputation of "hermit's residence". It has been featured in many TV series of Hong Kong TVB earlier. Shot here.

Mingshi Tianyuanfeng Village is sparse, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, and the scenery is handsome and elegant. It is a typical karst landform in southern Guangxi. Sit on a bamboo raft and be among them, watching the meandering river, towering green peaks, and the plowmen working on their hoes...everywhere exudes the simple charm of nature. The sound of Detian's waterfalls is so ups and downs that if you meet a sensitive and delicate person, you may not be able to fall asleep all night, and you may even stay up all night writing. In contrast, the stars in the sky in Kanas, Xinjiang, play a silent lullaby. They are densely packed and charming, allowing people to sleep peacefully until dawn.

The next day, early in the morning, breathing in the slightly cold air, everyone did not rush to Kanas Lake to visit the water monster. Instead, they decided to explore Baihaba Village on the China-Kazakhstan border in advance. .

You need to check your identity before traveling

The highway in the north is wide. A large road stretches straight forward. The tourist minibus rushes on the road, turning a series of twists and turns, and the car suddenly Pause - it's time to preach! The tour guide specifically told everyone to "no photos and prepare documents." It turned out that everyone had already arrived at the border defense area between China and Kazakhstan, and further ahead was the border defense station.

After the car drove for about two or three minutes, it stopped again. A People's Liberation Army officer got on the car to verify everyone's identity - it was more stringent than the Guangxi Detian Sino-Vietnam border inspection. The People's Liberation Army checked and inspected everyone one by one. The tourist's identity document will not be released until it is fully inspected.

After inspection, the vehicles drove to the real border line. Posts and watchtowers could be seen along the way. However, the boundary monument erected in 1997 stood lonely in the field. There were no local children playing around the monument, and there were no bustling people. The market and the vast fields are only crossed by the China-Kazakhstan border river. The river divides the wilderness and hills, and at the same time separates China and Kazakhstan. Compared with the bustling scene at the China-Vietnam border in Detian, Guangxi, the China-Kazakhstan border in Xinjiang seems a bit lonely and deserted. The boundary river flows quietly, the boundary monuments stand silently, and the forests and mountains are quiet... Walking to Baihaba, the "first village in the northwest", you can see the dense birch forest, the friendly Tuva people, and the wisps of smoke rising from the wooden houses. The border with Kazakhstan seems to be alive.

Baihaba Village is located on the lower reaches of the river. The village is a tribe of Mongolian people. Because the village is located on the border, it has the reputation of "the first village in the northwest". There are endless pastures along the roadside in the village, and white sheep running around in search of food are dotted on the dark green grassland.

Cross-border souvenirs: medicinal materials

China and Kazakhstan do not seem to have set up border markets here, and there are few places selling Kazakhstani specialties in Kanas, but According to the tour guide, the medicinal materials here are relatively famous, but tourists still need to be careful in identifying them if they want to buy them. Autumn is the best season to visit Kanas, especially in September and October, when the leaves turn from green to yellow. Visitors can enjoy the scenery of the "Golden Altay" here. White birches stand high into the blue sky. The autumn wind blows, and the leaves are all yellow. The fallen leaves rustle, leaving a golden land. At this time, photographers from all over the world will rush here to stroll on the golden horse paths, bathe in the warm sunshine, and take photos of this long-lost leisure and beauty.
