The main scenic spots in Huaxi Scenic Area

Huaxi Park, located in Huaxi Town, south of the city 17km, was built in 1940, covering an area of more than 800 mu. It is a famous tourist attraction in Guizhou, and it is one of the three "plateau pearls" in Guizhou, which combines true landscapes, pastoral scenery and ethnic customs. After Marshal Chen Yi swam through Huaxi, he once left "true mountains and rivers everywhere, and the layout of Huaxi is more natural;" Shilihe beach is as bright as a mirror, and there are several fields in a few steps. "That poem. Beautiful hills stand on both sides of Huaxi. There are many caves on the mountain, and there are underground rivers under the mountain. The winding Huaxi River is clear and elegant. River flows through mountains and cliffs, bridges and walls, forming many small turbulence, waterfalls, lakes and beaches. Along the stream bank, there are some wonderful pavilions, flying bridges, hotels and villas, which add intoxicating feelings to the beautiful scenery of this mountain surrounded by water, green ponds and ten miles of beaches. The forest hill in Linxi is only 100 meters high, which looks like a natural bonsai from a distance. On the top of the mountain, green rocks, winding paths and caves crisscross, and the "Ge Feiyun" is cleverly built among the mountains. Visitors can climb to the top of the mountain and have a panoramic view of West China. The other mountain is Guishan, which is next to Linshan and lives in the center of West China. There are small bridges flying at the foot of the mountain, and the river is swift. The river falling from the waterfall is green, and the flow rate gradually slows down, forming a small belt-shaped lake. Visitors can cruise by boat and enjoy the magnificent scenery on both sides. Above Bashang Bridge, among the green trees, there is a small villa with red tiles and white walls. It is said that during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, Chiang Kai-shek commanded War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. There is a chess room under the bridge. 1959, marshal Chen yi once wrote a poem on this topic: "Huaxi chess pavilion is located halfway up the mountain, and many people gather here for discussion." I advise you to let him fight first, and the last move is the highest. "This idea is very fresh and unforgettable. Tianhetan Scenic Area is located in Shiban Town, Huaxi District, Guiyang City, 24 kilometers away from Guiyang City and 0/3 kilometers away from Huaxi/KLOC. Take the shuttle bus next to Guiyang Riverside Park, take the Guiyang-Huaxi high-grade highway every half hour, and get off at Tianhetan. The traffic is very convenient.

The scenic spot covers an area of 1.5 square kilometers, which is a typical thin-layer carbonate outcropping block with frequent folds, staggered faults, developed joints and obvious karstification. As a result, winding valleys and criss-crossing gullies have appeared in this area, and the whole scenic spot is divided into four tour systems: calcified beach waterfall, Xiangpaigou water culture, water cave cruise ship and dry cave tour.

Entering the scenic spot, you will see 2 10 meter calcified beach waterfall, which is also the widest calcified beach waterfall in China at present. This section of the river downstream of the waterfall is called Xiangshiwan. Waterfalls fly straight down, and grotesque limestone caves are all over the Xiangpugou reach, or detour or leap forward, forming beautiful waters, surrounding sandbanks, Yuanji Garden, Xianrong and other scenic spots. When the water is abundant, the waterfall roars down like a runaway wild horse, and it is unstoppable, splashing water mist under the pool, which is spectacular. In the dry season, the waterfall dripping from the top of the waterfall is silky smooth. Under the breeze, it is magnificent. It connects the calcified beach with Wolong Lake, and a long dragon ridge-Baibu Stone Bridge emerges in the lake. The lake is clear as a mirror, and the shore is pink and green, just like a paradise.

Walking along Xiangbagou, you can find the ancient national cultural footprints-Xiangbagou, Shuiche, Shuiche and other representatives.

Longtan cave in the scenic spot consists of water cave and dry cave. Visiting the wonders of the water cave by boat is like being in a fairyland. The total length of the cave is about 1000m, the widest part is more than 80m, the narrowest part is only 20m, the highest part in the cave is more than 50m, and the depth of the underground river in the cave is 21m. There are karst landscapes such as stalactites, stalagmites and stone pillars in the cave. The dry cave has three floors and winds for more than 2000 meters. There is a natural stone bridge in the cave-Naihe Bridge, which runs continuously between two cliffs in the cave. Under the bridge is an unfathomable silver beach, which is breathtaking. The cave is full of exquisite stalactites of different shapes.

At the top of the scenic spot, there is a steel cable, and tourists can shuttle between the blue sky through the zip line, not only overlooking the whole scenic spot, but also feeling flying in the air. The slate buildings in ethnic villages near the scenic spot are quite interesting.

Tianhe Lake is connected by mountains and rivers, with water in the mountains, holes in the water and pools in the holes. While enjoying the beautiful and colorful lakes, mountains and magical caves, you can also appreciate the cultural connotation of the scenery, which is a strange tourist attraction.

Tianhetan was successfully upgraded to a national AAAA scenic spot in 2009. Address: Located in the southwest suburb of Guiyang, 23km away from Huaxi,13km.

Transportation: Take bus No.211opposite to Binjiang Park, and take Guiyang-Huaxi high-grade highway to the scenic spot every half hour. 1. There are water caves and dry caves in Tianhetan Scenic Area. Generally, first visit the water cave by boat, and then visit the dry cave after crossing the Galaxy Palace.

2. be careful to follow a large number of tourists when swimming in caves, and it is easy to get lost. It is not easy to stay dry in a splashing waterfall. It is recommended to wear clothes that will not be embarrassing even if you are soaked. Girls who love beauty should also be careful not to become a flower face.

3. The farmhouse meal in Zhenshan Village near Tianhetan Scenic Area is quite distinctive. Try it. The town is called Qingyan, which is located at the south of Huaxi 12 km in Guiyang, and the word "Dingguangmen" is written on the gate. There are winding city walls on the left and right sides of the city gate, and enemy towers, battlements and fortresses are built on the city walls. They are all made of square boulders, and their colors are green, gray and black.

The town belongs to Guiyang City, Guizhou Province, with a history of more than 620 years. There used to be nine temples, eight temples, three palaces, three pavilions, a hospital, the first floor, and ancient buildings such as stone archways and city walls. Originally a tucheng, after hundreds of years of historical vicissitudes, it was rebuilt and expanded many times, and gradually became a stone city with intricate streets and lanes.

The karst landform in Guiyang is very typical. Layers of rocks are piled up and suddenly come out, which is the mountain. There are many stones in the mountains, thick and thin, layer by layer, which is very convenient to use. Therefore, most of the residential buildings in the suburbs of Guiyang use stone chips as tiles and stones as walls. The big stone house is connected with the small stone house, which is green and dripping. It is a special scenery in the local mountainous area. Qingyan town is surrounded by mountains, and it is natural that the gates and walls are made of stone. Yes, the ancient meaning of the ancient town first comes from pale bluestone.

The architecture of the ancient town is built on the mountain, with reasonable layout, exquisite stone carving and wood carving technology, containing many myths and legends and rich local characteristics, which is amazing. The criss-crossing bluestone roads and winding narrow lanes, with ancient stone counters and wooden counters on both sides, small carved windows and doors, and stone lions hanging upside down on the stone square ... all arouse people's nostalgia for the past. Strolling into an alley named "Backstreet", I immediately felt a strong sense of time and space distance. The road paved with bluestone slabs and the wall built with bluestone slabs are like a just visiting built with slate slabs.

Equally amazing is that this small ancient town has ancient temples, solemn Catholic churches and Christian churches at the same time, which is called "coexistence of three religions". Standing on the Dingguang Gate, the church with spires is far away from the towering Centennial Square, and the contradictory and unified culture between the East and the West reasonably exists in the town. On the first and fifteenth day of the first lunar month, incense is constantly burning in the temple, and people who go to church on Sunday are also in an endless stream. It is not surprising that there are many religious sites in remote places. Surprisingly, the townspeople's innate tolerance and generosity towards foreign things have led to an endless stream of religious beliefs that do not belong to this world.

Standing on the rostrum of Qingyan Town overlooking, the spire church and the solemn virgin archway face each other. You don't feel abrupt between them, but feel the asymmetric beauty of a jagged culture, just like hollowed-out flower windows, glass tiles and colorful modern goods, revealing the constant struggle between history and reality.

The best thing about Qingyan is the simple folk customs that modern people dream of. When you are tired, the townspeople will move out of the chair to let you rest; When you are thirsty, I'll serve you a bowl of cool Kuding tea, and I'll tell you a story about Qingyan, which will relieve your spirit. All this can be enjoyed at will. If you insist on giving money, the words "just take a little" will make you like this town from the heart. Qingyan Town was founded in the tenth year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty (1378), with a history of more than 600 years. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Qingyan set up a bunker. From the fourth year to the seventh year of the Apocalypse (1624- 1627), Gui Lin, a chieftain of Buyi nationality, built Qingyan Tucheng, leading 72 villages and controlling Bafan 12 division. As a military fortress, it occupies a special geographical position. After hundreds of years of construction and expansion, the earth wall has been changed into a stone wall, and the streets and alleys are paved with stones. The surrounding city walls are all built on cliffs with huge stones, with four gates, east, west, north and south. Within 3 square kilometers of the city, there are nearly 100 cultural relics and scenic spots. Nine temples (Jiuquan Temple, Ciyun Temple, Kannonji Temple, Chaoyang Temple, Xiang Ying Temple, Shoufu Temple, Yuantong Temple, phoenix temple Temple and Lianhua Temple), eight temples (Wang Yao Temple, Hei Temple, Chuanzhu Temple, Leizu Temple, Caishen Temple, Volcano Temple, Sun Bin Temple and Dongyue Temple) and five pavilions (Kuiguang Pavilion, Wenchang Pavilion and Yunlong Pavilion). Qingyan Ancient Town is a gathering of humanities, a week of historical celebrities, and Zhao Yijiong, the champion of the late Qing Dynasty (the first literary champion in Guizhou history). There are many historical sites in the town, such as the Qingyan religious case site that shocked China and foreign countries in modern history, Zhao Zhuangyuan's mansion, Mr. Pinggang's former residence, and the Red Army's Long March operational headquarters. His father, Deng's mother, Li Kenong and other revolutionary predecessors and their families have all lived in Qingyan secretly.

The town is a provincial-level cultural relics protection unit, a famous historical and cultural town and a national-level civilized market. It has profound historical culture, architectural culture, religious culture, farming culture, food culture and revolutionary traditional culture, and is inhabited by many ethnic groups. Among the total population of the town, Han nationality accounts for 6 1% of the total population, and ethnic minorities account for 39% of the total population. Miao and Buyi nationalities account for the vast majority of the minority population. The economy is dominated by agriculture, supplemented by forestry. Township enterprises with phosphorus chemical industry, building materials and medical care as leading industries have developed rapidly. In 2003, the operating income of township enterprises in the town was 430.63 million yuan. Relying on the rich resources of historical relics and location advantages, the tourism economic income shows an obvious upward trend, which complements the township enterprises and becomes the two major economic pillars of the town.

Qingyan Ancient Town is next to Guiyang Huaxi South12km213 National Road. It is one of the four ancient towns in Guizhou. There are walls around the ancient town, which are divided into inner city and outer city, and are made of square boulders. There are watchtowers, battlements and forts on the wall. The magnificent Dingguangmen Gate Tower complements the ancient stone road and the ancient archway. In fact, there are many buildings with distinctive features and profound historical background in the town. Climbing the hillside near the town (called Huangjiapo by locals) is not too high, and you can have a bird's eye view of the whole town. Because the town is not built on a plane, but on a rugged hillside, from a height, the whole town gives people a three-dimensional aesthetic feeling that is difficult to see in other ancient towns. Temples, city gates, these main buildings stand in the smoke, telling people one old story after another. Surprisingly, in addition to many temples, there is also a Christian church and a Catholic church in the town.

In other words, there are Buddhists in the town, and Catholicism and Christianity are equally popular. It is impossible to know how this phenomenon of "coexistence of three religions" has been preserved in the long history. However, according to people in the town, people go to church on the first day, the fifteenth day and Sunday, and the incense in the temple will not break. Apart from temples and churches, the most culturally representative of the town is probably the well-preserved ancient archway. It is said that there used to be eight stone archways in the ancient town, but due to historical reasons, only three are left. They are "Zhao Hundred Years Square" outside the North Gate, "Zhao Hundred Years Square" inside the South Gate and "Daughter-in-law Liu Jiexiao Square" near Dingguangmen. Among them, the construction of Jiexiao Square is the most elegant. What's more dramatic is that the church representing western culture was built opposite Xiao Jie Square, which symbolizes the traditional oriental thought, and stood tall for a hundred years. This staggered and asymmetrical beauty has been rendered into a strong contrast of the whole cultural atmosphere, so the seemingly fierce cultural and religious conflicts here have been unprecedentedly integrated, and people have to sigh how amazing the cultural inclusiveness of this tiny place is. Qingyan is backed by mountains, and the whole town of Qingyan is made of stone, including slate houses, stone walls, stone workshops, stone streets and stone alleys. Qingyan is very big, and stone alleys like "ecstasy" are all over the town. There are countless gables between these bluestone alleys, and frontispiece's style depends on the owner's taste. New Year pictures posted on frontispiece have strong Guizhou characteristics.

Qingyan people are proud that there have been "great men" in history, and Zhao Yijiong, the first scholar in Guizhou, has become a tourist attraction.

Foreign culture also quietly entered the ancient town through the path. The influence of religion is particularly typical, and it is difficult to see the scenery of "four religions in one" like Qingyan, an ancient town in China. Qingyan, Buddhist temples and Taoist temples are also full of incense. Although the Buddhist temple is small in scale, it has a good layout. There are many masterpieces with exquisite craftsmanship, such as the stone carving in Ciyun Temple and the wood carving art in Shoufo Temple, which can only be seen in Guiyang. Not far from the temple is the Christian church, where believers listen to the white-haired old man explaining the Bible. There is also a Taoist temple, and the prayers of Taoist priests are heard in the thick smoke.

Archway is the symbol of Qingyan ancient town. There are eight stone archways in the ancient town, and now there are only three left. Zhao Bainian Square outside the North Gate, Liu Jiexiao Square outside Dingmen, and Zhao Bainian Square inside the South Gate are all north-south, 9.5 meters high and 9 meters wide, with four pillars, three rooms and four roofs. There are stone drum pillars or lion pillars on the north and south sides of the four pillars. In the middle of Xiao Jie Square, there are empty sculptures of "Two Dragons Grab Treasure" and "Five Dragons Map", which are beautifully carved and engraved with imperial edicts. I don't know how many women have passed under the chastity archway. Visitors under the archway now may not know what the price is for a woman who embeds her name in the archway. People only praise the grandeur of the ancient square. The former residence of Zhao Yijiong, the champion mansion in Guiyang, is located in the north street of the town. The layout of the house, the layout of the courtyard and the exquisite carving technology of the doors and windows of the house still maintain the style of 100 years ago.

Zhao Jiong, born in 1857, died in 1906, 1886, the top scholar in China. No one in Yunnan-Guizhou area has ever taken the imperial examination before. Because of his unusual experience, there are still many legends about him in the local area. One of them said that one day when he was young, he was reading under a big tree, and suddenly a huge python coiled it up, but he was too absorbed in reading to notice. A few hours later, when the python saw that it had done nothing, it suspected that it was entangled in a stone and left for no reason. Aside from the unscientific elements in the story, the town is quiet but not lonely. This is really a good place to study.

I visited Zhao Yijiong's mansion before his death. There is a simple couplet in front of the courtyard, but it expresses Mr. He Lin's lifelong wish: "Qin and He recorded the annals, and the Analects of Confucius passed down from family to family." The buildings in the Champion House are mainly wooden structures, with three entrances and three exits, which are magnificent and unobtrusive, quiet and serene, and have a scholarly family. The original guest room didn't have much decoration, but now some calligraphy and painting works of the owner are displayed. Among them, there is a calligraphy, and there are nearly 100 "shou" characters in various fonts on a scroll. Does this also imply that Qingyan Town has a pleasant environment and can become a place for health and longevity? Perhaps only the "century old square" erected outside the town can know the answer. A four-poster, three-bedroom, three-story A-Ding archway with many words on it, so you can read it carefully. The famous film "Looking for a Gun" was shot in Qingyan, and the scene of Hundred Years Old Square appeared many times in the film, and the picture was beautiful.

There are also many cultural relics, such as Xiang Ying Temple and Wanshou Palace. Tofu fruit, soaked tofu, tofu skin, champion hoof, champion arm, chicken spicy horn, etc. Rich in nutrition and varied in eating methods, it is a famous snack in Qingyan.

Perhaps Xiao Qingyan was most impressed by the local food. Qingyan is probably the most distinctive snack in all ancient towns. Perhaps limited to local products, the raw materials used in traditional snacks in the town are actually not complicated and special, just some home-made grains and meat. However, under the exquisite craftsmanship of smart women in the town, plates of distinctive snacks were put on the table.

Tofu balls are made by kneading tofu into balls and then wrapping them with flour. It was slightly fried in the oil pan, and it was Huang Cancan's when it came out. Dip it in Guizhou's special water while it is hot, and then put it in your mouth. It's crispy outside and soft inside, sweet and spicy, and it's really delicious. Pastry porridge is the first choice for breakfast. With lotus root starch as the bottom and a cooked rice cake ball on it, it looks lovely and attractive. Generally, before eating, sprinkle some ingredients such as melon seeds, sesame seeds, peanuts and candied fruit, then mash the rice cake with a spoon and dip it in a spoonful of lotus root starch. The taste is sweet and waxy, extremely smooth. Rice tofu must be available in almost every town in southwest China, but it is different in Qingyan. There is a special kind of rice tofu in the local area, which is blended with mung bean powder and various vegetables, and its color is light green. This formula is rich in vitamins.

Qingyan has many delicious foods, such as elbow with honey sauce and fish in sour soup. There are also a variety of wild vegetables in the local area, which are also very distinctive after being processed and put on the table.
