The Taihang Grand Canyon in Linzhou has complex terrain and is full of many unpredictable landforms, which is very suitable for exploration and hiking. Feel the beautiful natural charm here, which is a holy place for young people in go on road trip. This is a detailed guidebook for you.

Wei Taihang stretches for more than 800 miles from Xishan in Beijing in the north to Wuwang Mountain at the junction of Henan and Shanxi in the south. Taihang Mountain is majestic and steep, with beautiful mountains and rivers and numerous canyons. Wherever we go, we form a magnificent landscape.

There are really too many grand canyons created by the 800-mile Taihang Mountain, and each has its own characteristics. As far as I know, the 5A scenic spots built by Taihang Mountain generally include Yesanpo, Baishishan, Wutai Mountain, Linzhou Taihang Grand Canyon, Shanxi Taihang Grand Canyon, Baligou, Henan, Yuntai Mountain and so on from north to south. As for the scenic spots of Grade 4A and below, there are countless scenic spots with different scenery.

Today we will introduce the 5A Taihang Grand Canyon in Linzhou, Henan Province (Shanxi Taihang Grand Canyon 1999 has just been upgraded to 5A).

Linzhou Taihang is located in the famous hometown of slate in the canyon. Of the 17 administrative villages in the town, 10 was successfully selected into the list of traditional Chinese villages. Selected as Chaoyang Village and Louzitou Village, the second batch of traditional villages in China on 20 13; The third batch of traditional villages in China: Caomiao Village, Li Yuanping Village and Nanwan Village; In June, it was successfully selected into the fifth batch of traditional villages in China: Xianmagou Village, Dongwan Village, Shibanyan Village, Xixiangping Village and Gaojiatai Village.

Taihang Grand Canyon Scenic Area mainly includes three parts: Wangxiang Stone, Taohua Valley and Taihang Tianlu. Ticket 120 yuan, transportation fee 60 yuan, valid for two days.

Wangxiang Stone Scenic Area has a superior geographical location, beautiful scenery and excellent feng shui. According to legend, Fu Yue, the prime minister of Shang Dynasty, Zhao, a Taoist priest of Ming Dynasty, and Xu, the minister of war of Qing Dynasty, all lived here.

Mountain climbing is the main attraction of Wangxiang Stone. Generally, enter the scenic spot, take the Soul Bridge on the left, and then walk back along the valley on the right to form a loop.

The suspended soul bridge is a steel cable suspension bridge. The bridge is 50 meters long and 2 meters wide. Although the bridge deck is not high, people wander on it, and the timid can sway their souls, hence the name "Shake the Soul Bridge".

Out of the soul bridge, followed by a steep climb. Although it is not high, it is steep, and the place with poor physical strength is duel. When you get to the cliff, you will find a winding plank road. Comrades who are afraid of heights can really experience a thrilling feeling. There is a sightseeing platform on the plank road, from which you can enjoy the beautiful natural scenery of the Taihang Grand Canyon.

After that, it will pass through a virgin forest. The vegetation here is dense and the vines are connected. Walking in summer is refreshing and comfortable.

There is a big waterfall ahead, flying straight down from the high cliff and falling into the fog. There is a pool of clear waves below the waterfall, which is crystal clear. On a boulder next to it, I wonder if the word "Yang Zhi" was written by a tall man. It is more suitable for use here.

Next to the cliff on the left side of the waterfall, an 88-meter-high skyscraper ladder stands upright and spirals up to the second floor above Zhandao. Standing under the ladder looks like entering the clouds. When I climbed for the first time, when I reached the middle, my legs were soft with fear and I was in a dilemma. Finally, I had to bite the bullet and climb up.

After boarding the pipe ladder, it is a path in the gap of the cliff. Because the gap in the cliff is too low, people have to bend over to pass. Locally known as "Kid Cliff", there is a high-altitude sling in front, and you can reach the opposite cliff from the flight attendant zip line hundreds of meters high.

Surprisingly, there are two pavilions on the cliff opposite, which are said to be places where Taoist priests learn Buddhism and practice. Apart from its small scale, it feels like an empty temple.

If you leave the plank road, you can continue to climb the steep and narrow steps and go straight to Taihang Mountain Highway. You can also stop by and talk to ta.

Taohua Valley is the key landscape of Taihang Grand Canyon, which is famous for its water. The Yellow Dragon Beach in the Dragonfly Canyon is green and clear, colorful and picturesque. When you walk on the iron ladder embedded in the cliff, you will feel as if you are integrated into this magical paradise. All your troubles and trifles will be forgotten, you just need to experience and enjoy nature!

Taohua Valley Canyon is long and narrow, with "two dragons playing with pearls" and "nine waterfalls" along the way. The scenery is beautiful and it's not too tiring to play. It is a must-see attraction in Taihang Grand Canyon.

Peach blossom valley, hence the name. It is said that the peach blossoms here bloom in September, and it is cold in September. There is a poem that says, "Peach blossoms are in the snow at the mouth of the cave, and the waterfall at the rock head hangs on the clouds.". Of course, there is a legend circulating here, so I won't introduce it here. Interested friends can find out for themselves.

From Taohua Valley to Taohuadong Village, there is also a Taohuaxian Cave and a Taohuatang Waterfall with a height of 346 meters. If the flood season comes, it will be quite spectacular. Looking up from here, there is a suspended overpass directly above the scenic spot, which is Tianji Mountain Scenic Spot in Shanxi. There is a path to the south of Taohuatan Waterfall. I wonder if it is still on.

Starting from the parking lot of Taohuadong Village, you can travel around the entire Taihang Mountain Highway by car. Taihang Mountain Highway twists and turns along the ridge of Taihang Mountain for nearly 30 kilometers, and you can enjoy the scenery of Taihang Mountain. Several scenic spots on the way are beautiful, and it is said that a new glass bridge has been built.

By the way, in the middle of Taihang Mountain Road, there is another scenic spot called Taiji Iceberg. If you have time, I suggest you take a walk. I have been there in my early years, and I feel it is worth seeing. If you go there, you will get different results.

The above is a general introduction to the whole scenic spot.

In fact, if you have enough time to go to the Taihang Grand Canyon in Linzhou, I suggest you stay there for a while. You can't go to the scenic spot. As mentioned earlier, Shibanyan Town is located in the whole canyon, which is a natural scenic spot with excellent scenery. In addition to the original natural scenery, there are more than 10 original villages scattered in every corner of the mountain. You can enjoy more than 10 traditional villages and the original mountains and rivers of Taihang Mountain without spending tickets. It can be said that any place is worth your time to savor. Moreover, the traffic here is developed, and any village can drive smoothly.

In recent years, Shibanyan Town has become a paradise to attract tourists, artists and photographers with its unique folk houses and simple folk customs.

The traces of architecture and life here are naturally and harmoniously integrated into the landscape of Taihang Grand Canyon. What are the characteristics of slate houses? There are such folk songs circulating in the local area: "Stone steps, stone buildings, stone houses, stone buildings, stone pillars, stone walls, stone streets, stone yards, stone yards, stone mills, stone caves, stone mortars, stone basins, stone water tanks, stone tables, stone benches, stone tables, stone temples, stone furnaces and stone statues".

Slate folk customs are simple, people are hardworking, kind and hospitable, but it is common practice to bring tea and water to tourists from afar.

In slate, there are peach blossom valleys where peach blossoms bloom in September, pool icebergs where hot water freezes, historical wonders, eternal mysteries, and the ice backs of pigs are all famous stones.

There are Wangxiangshi, savage valley, Xianxia Valley, fairy mountain, Lubanmen, Gudong Reservoir in Hunan, the highest mountain village in Linzhou and the first world-class international gliding base in Asia. From the slate to the south, you can also go to Pingdi Village in Pingshun, Shanxi Province, and then go up to Pingshun County, Changzhi, Shanxi Province, where there is a wall-hung highway.
