Baligou main scenic spots

Covering an area of 10000 square meters, the square has natural and cultural wonders of "one bay with clear water, two streams meeting, three groups of ancient buildings, four peaks listed and five mountains surrounded".

The confluence of one bay, clear water and two streams means that Baligou and Xiliangou meet here to form Phoenix Bay.

The three groups of ancient buildings refer to the Han and Tang buildings composed of bridgehead, Erxian Bridge and Shanmen Service Building, Baligou Hotel built in Ming and Qing Dynasties, and stone house building in Taihang. Three groups of ancient buildings have a harmonious transition from the times to the original natural scenery of Baligou.

The four peaks are Sleeping Beauty Peak, Phoenix Peak, Buddha Palm Peak and Lion Peak around Shanmen Square, surrounded by five mountains, and the surrounding Guanshan, Laoyeding, Jiulian Mountain, Baodu Mountain and Yuping Mountain.

A narrow strip of the sky

Yixiantian is located in the northeast of Yangzhou parking lot in Baligou, between two peaks. The cliffs on both sides are steep, with blue sky overhead, which developed and formed in Mesoproterozoic 65.438+0.2 billion years ago. Under the action of water erosion and ice splitting caused by temperature difference between day and night in winter, cracks in rocks deepen and widen. Finally, under the action of gravity and vibration, huge rocks separated from the mountain along the cracks, forming a blue sky landscape.

Hongshihe scenic spot

Hongshihe

She is the birthplace of Taihang Tianhe Waterfall. Because it is located on Taihang Mountain, with an altitude of 1 100 meters, it is also called "Tianhe". The stone in its riverbed is a rare red slate, hence the name "Hongshi River".

Hongshi River is located on Hulu Cliff in Baligou Scenic Area. It originated in Shanxi. It is 20 meters wide and 0.6 meters deep. Because the altitude is1500m, it is also called Taihang Tianhe. The valley is deep, the water is gurgling, and the river flows along the smooth and strewn at random red slate. Under the sunshine, it is as crystal clear as a huge crystal, and as comfortable as playing the piano on a rock. The green river is like a precious mirror, lying between the green hills, which is breathtaking against the blue sky and white clouds.

There are eight huge stones in Hongshi River. It is said that the Eight Immortals once visited here and took a nap, so it is called the Eight Immortals Terrace. People can also "become immortals" here, playing with water, sightseeing and taking photos as a souvenir.

We can watch colorful waterfalls and rainbows here. When the breeze blows, the rainbow floats with the wind, flickering and ethereal, like watching a fairyland. Climb the plank road and climb the mountain slowly: looking down is like looking at the world in the sky, with pocket-sized landscapes and microscopic scenes; Looking up at the precipice of thousands of feet, standing in front of you, the pine trees are upside down and intertwined, and timid friends will be frightened and shivering. But if you don't reach the top of the mountain, you are not a hero. Success belongs to the persevering.

Hongshihe Tourist Area is also located on the first precipice of Baligou Scenic Area, ranging from 1 100 meters to 1700 meters above sea level. It is precisely because it accepted the spring water seeping from the gap between the double and triple cliffs that it broke through the shackles of Hulu Cliff with great strength and gave birth to the wonderful work of Baligou-Taihang Tianhe Waterfall.

There are many scenic spots in Hongshi River, the most famous of which is Hongshi River. There is Qinglong Cave by the river, and the spring water in the cave is clear, sweet and delicious. There is also Baligou village, where you can see a farmer's century-old house and experience the natural wildness of a small mountain village in the deep mountains and forests.

The mountains suppress the height of this peak. You can also visit the mysterious and confusing Bai Bao Cave in Shangbeiguan Mountain, which is rich in lead, zinc, iron, copper and other minerals. It is said that there are also gold, silver and jewels, which can only be found by the blessed. To the north, you can go to Huanghua Cave, which is covered with yellow stalactites, such as people and animals, with strange shapes, dripping like a line, and freezing cold.
