Happy Journey (15)-Chongqing Black Valley

The Black Valley is located in the residual vein of Dalou Mountain in the transition from Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau to Sichuan Basin. It is located in Heishan Town, Wansheng Economic and Technological Development Zone, Chongqing, 63 kilometers away from downtown Chongqing. It is a national AAAAA-level tourist scenic spot, a national forest park, a national geological park, the "Twelve Scenery of Xinbayu" in Chongqing and the first environmental protection demonstration scenic spot in Chongqing.

Black valley is not in the self-driving plan, not far from Wulong, so the plan was temporarily changed. Leave Wulong and turn to Nanwan Expressway along G65 Baomao Expressway, then drive from Hei Expressway for more than 2 hours to Tian Yun Hotel near Hei Valley Tourist Center.

This trip is to find hotels near the scenic spots on Baidu map. With the experience of Zhenyuan ancient town, I will not rush to make a reservation, but make a decision after I arrive at the store.

Grand Sky Hotel is located in a rectangular area. Many hotels are connected with each other and separated by expressway. Parking is convenient and the room is clean and tidy. The off-season house price is cheap, 100 yuan/room.

All kinds of restaurants and hotels can be seen everywhere around, but it is cold in April, with few tourists and few doors open. I turned and chose a restaurant near the hotel. The food is well fried, but it's a bit deceptive.

I ordered a special dish "green pepper fish" without looking at the weight of the fish. As a result, a plate of pepper and green pepper wrapped a small crucian carp of 800g, which was a bit expensive in 68 yuan. The proprietress was sure that she was not short of money and that the trip was not unpleasant, so she acquiesced. Fortunately, it tastes good.

After breakfast the next day, I checked out and went to the visitor center. Scenic spot ticket 105 yuan/person, 30 yuan, sightseeing bus/person.

The scenic area is 100 square kilometer, the maximum height difference between up and down is 1 .200m, and the canyon is13km, of which the battery car is 6km, the plank road pontoon bridge is 6km, and the sightseeing cableway is1km. We choose to walk from the north gate to the south gate. I was a little tired at first, but I was much more relaxed and comfortable in the second half.

Along the way, various waterfalls are the most dazzling. Some are as strong as pillars, some are as soft as silk, and their shapes are like the milky way falling for nine days, or flying over the green forest, some are like water curtains falling, some are like drizzle, and what's more, such as feather fans showing, two dragons playing with beads, complacent, and carp jumping, the picture is dazzling.

Also witnessed for the first time the mud waterfall born with the waterfall, that is, the deposition of spring flowers. When the spring water flows out of the surface, the pressure drops and the temperature rises, and the minerals in the groundwater are deposited in the spring mouth, which is called spring flowers. The composition of spring flowers is calcium carbonate, called travertine; Silicon dioxide is the main form of silicon dioxide.

Quanhua deposit in Heishan Valley occurs in dolomite of Loushanguan Group of Middle-Upper Cambrian. They are khaki, turbid in color and waterfall in appearance, so they are called mud waterfalls. Waterfalls fall slowly layer by layer, accompanied by mud waterfalls quietly, and the combination of dynamic and static is another kind of scenery.

Looking down at the river is no less than looking up at the mountains. Clear water drops converge into a river, and the river flows slowly around the rocks. The rocks in the water are covered with moss, eroded round and smooth, gathered together or scattered all over the place, so beautiful against the backdrop of green mountains, clear water and fine waterfalls.

There is no soil on the rock, but the plants on it still grow vigorously and are full of vitality. It's really natural selection, survival of the fittest.

The rocks on the shore are not as beautiful as those in the water, but they can still attract geologists' attention. Stratigraphic dip on both sides is different, which obviously uplifts and dislocates to form faults. The other is monoclinic, with spring water deposits on the surface, and a huge fault tens of meters in the longitudinal direction, with only a little sky exposed. This scene is a scene in my eyes, and this is the magic and charm of geology.

I have seen waterfalls and rocks. Let's take a look at this green world. There is a bamboo forest in the scenic spot. Bamboo is very small, with a diameter of about 10 cm, and it is clustered. Between bamboo forests, the comb-shaped stone road built on the mountain is clean and flat, with low green plants planted on one side. It is a quiet place synthesized by man and nature, with a feeling of winding paths leading to a secluded place, passing through a sheltered depression.

There is a bridge between Chongqing and Guizhou in the scenic area, with one foot on two provinces and two eyes on Chongqing and Guizhou. The vicissitudes of ancient bridges and gurgling streams seem to witness the noise at the junction of Chongqing and Guizhou.

In addition to the boundary bridge, the pontoon bridge over the mountain also separates Guizhou from Chongqing.

There are plank roads, pontoons and suspension bridges in the scenic area. The most pleasant thing is to take a leisurely walk along the clean and flat plank road in the natural ecological scenic spot of Chongqing's largest original ecological reserve, quietly look at the mountains and green, feel the quiet mountains and quiet water with your heart, and enjoy the comfort and pleasure of being away from the noise of the city, returning to nature and relaxing. At the same time, this quiet world seems to purify your heart.

The scenic spot preserves one of the few intact natural ecosystems in subtropical and temperate zones of the same latitude on the earth, with a forest coverage rate of 97%. It is a natural oxygen bar. It rained in Mao Mao that morning, and the rain washed the vegetation greener and brighter.

Because of the fresh air and pleasant scenery, people naturally slow down. Arriving at the rest area with dense trees, colorful trees and flowing water all around, the tour is coming to an end, and the whole journey takes nearly 4 hours, which is very pleasant.

This is the second scenic spot that makes me particularly happy and worth visiting after Fenghuang Ancient City. Coincidentally, visiting both scenic spots coincides with drizzle, and it seems that people who like rain are full of romantic feelings. Perhaps it is a special state of mind, which makes me feel different about the ancient city of Phoenix and the Black Valley. Therefore, when writing these two travel notes, I have more intention.

The purpose of writing travel notes is to record travel experiences and feelings, keep them as souvenirs, and then provide them to friends for reference. The photos attached in this article are the most. I like them very much and want to leave them. After reading it, do you want to come here if you like to travel? Then take a trip and feel the gift and beauty of nature with your heart. Have a nice trip!
