Pursuing the Five-foot Salt Road in the Pass of Ancient Sichuan and Yunnan

? In late April, "the Millennium is still fresh", in the fresh air with lush grass. Go to expressway, Yin Kun, and enjoy the colorful trip to Yunnan and Kunming.

This trip to Yunnan is not to "catch the exam", and there is plenty of time. All the way was leisurely, comfortable and relaxed.

? The car passed Yibin out of Sichuan and entered Zhaotong, the ancient kingdom of Yunnan and colorful Yunnan.

? The mountain driving mode is turned on. Walking in the deep valley. The quiet and exceptionally cool microclimate in the gully feels very fresh and comfortable.

Take a bus up the hill.

Water is a kind of enjoyment.

The slope is another journey.

? The frames left by the car on the road are dizzying, for fear of falling into the fleeting natural landscape.

I'm going to stay on the road for one night before I leave. I want to feel the local customs; Second, I want to taste the specialties of other countries and ethnic groups; Write a travel note by the way.

At about 3 pm, more than half of the trip has been completed, so it's time to find a place to rest.

? Baidu used to be the ancient town of Doushaguan, and it was the only place for salt merchants in the Central Plains and Sichuan and Yunnan to settle down. It is also a gathering area for ethnic minorities.

? Doushaguan ancient town.

? Located 22 kilometers southwest of Yanjin County, Zhaotong City, Yunnan Province. In ancient times, it was the only way for Sichuan to enter Yunnan. Wuchi Road Pass in Qin and Han Dynasties. The stone wall in thousands of feet is divided into two by the Guanhe River, forming a huge stone gate, which locks the main road of ancient Yunnan and Sichuan, so it is called "Shimenguan Gate". There are poetry days:

He is not a hero until he reaches Shimen.

Heroes have to go through the bean paste pass.

? As early as 220 BC, it had the reputation of "locking southern Yunnan" and "western Sichuan in the throat".

The five-foot salt road in Doushaguan is a difficult and steep road for salt merchants and caravans to go to ancient Yunnan.

Wuchi road According to legend, Li Bing, the commander-in-chief, built the first passage into Yunnan, also known as "Bo Road".

? Wudilu Dousha Pass has made outstanding contributions to the cultural exchanges and ethnic integration between the Central Plains and ancient Yunnan ethnic minorities in history, and the circulation of materials is even more remarkable.

? So far, more than 200 horseshoe prints have been preserved on this ancient post road.

It seems to tell us that it was difficult to go to Yunnan in those days.

At that time, the owner of the caravan whipped his horse, and the neigh of the horse still echoed in his ears.

The whip made the horse cry.

The voice is sad.

Bubu wuchi road.

How many caravan tears have been left.

How many touching stories of joys and sorrows have been left.

? Standing opposite the steep straight-walled stone gate, the ingenious masterpiece of nature shocked the earth. Reminiscent of the difficulty of entering Yunnan step by step.

Doushaguan ancient town.

It is built on the half slope of a high-lying canyon, adjacent to Guanhe River on the left and gentle slope mountain on the right.

Beautiful scenery, towering old trees.

The ancient style, rhyme, heavy history and culture of the ancient town road blend with today's humanistic customs;

The Central Plains culture, Jingchu culture, Bashu culture, Bo culture and ancient Dian culture in the ancient town meet and merge here, forming a cultural phenomenon with outstanding characteristics and leading the trend.

Qinwuchi Road with deep hoofprint, hanging coffins and eternal mystery are all historical "classics" worth visiting.

In the ancient town, we carefully selected horses and tied them to the Laomadian Inn.

This is a veritable homestay hotel. In the quadrangle, the flowing water is gurgling, the greenery is one after another, and the ancient style is overflowing.

? The living fossils in the hospital are not only the "national treasure" plants of bracken. It adds spirituality and vitality to the hotel and creates a kind of leisure beauty for the guests.

Actually, I prefer the name Laomadian. It's an extended version to convey a beautiful legend to the guests.

There is no shortage of ancient towns in China.

What is lacking is an ancient town with real content.

Dousha ancient town

It is a famous and real place that can trace the footprints of the ancients.
