What are the secret territories of China?

Tianmen, an icon, is a relatively unpopular scenic spot. There are relatively few tourists visiting here, but many tourists choose to visit the scenic spots every year. Besides, China also has some secret places to go and choose freely.

Icon Tianmen Icon Tianmen, as the name implies.

A huge natural stone statue stands on the vast shore of Namco.

The trunk just goes deep into the lake, as if it is absorbing the holy water in the snowy area, and as if it is guarding the holy lake.

Between the stone elephant's body and trunk, it is like a huge door, which is the holy door to heaven in the eyes of old Tibetans.

As a sacred place of Tibetan tantra, countless monks and hermits have practiced here for thousands of years, and countless Tibetans have come here to worship.

Nowadays, few travelers have discovered this unique "China mystery".

When they came here, they stood high and looked at the distance. Natural inlets, clear lakes, holy snow-capped mountains and pictographic arches complement each other, forming the most beautiful picture between heaven and earth.

I can't help asking in my mind, who created such a beautiful scenery? (It's natural to reply with an ultra-low voice)

In China's 9.6 million square kilometers of land, there are too many "ultimate secret realms" similar to the icon Tianmen.

Some are hidden in the mountains and few people care; Some are like the ideal countryside described by Tao Yuanming; Some remain as they were thousands of years ago; Some are regarded as the best homes by rare animals.

China Mystery recommendation 1. Lenggacuo

The Gongga Snow Mountain, the highest peak of 7556 meters in Sichuan Province, is almost unknown in the outdoor circle. But if you want to see the excellent reflection of Gongga Snow Mountain, Lengga Cuo is a good choice.

Lenggacuo is a lake next to Gongga Snow Mountain, which is called "a drop of tears in Gongga" by tourists.

In recent years, many experienced travelers and photographers have come here to see the "King of Shushan" and have been shocked and surprised by it. Two sides in summer, ice in winter, can't go too many times.

2. Baishuitai

Baishuitai, at the foot of Haba Snow Mountain in Shangri-La, Yunnan, is a travertine landform spectacle formed by minerals dissolved in spring water. From a distance, it looks like jasper dotted on white snow terraces.

Shallow water is crystal clear. If there are no ripples, it's just glass. The beam of sunshine on the mountain divides the mountain into bright and dark, and naturally it is far away.

Throughout the year, the beauty here will not decrease because of the weather and seasonal changes.

Step 3 trough

The secret territory of northern Shaanxi, the trough, is hidden in the depths of the Loess Plateau and little known, but the spectacular scene is not lost to the trough in Arizona, USA.

In this red sandstone Danxia landform carved by millions of years and wind and sand, wonderful lines and fantastic shapes show the world the myriad customs carved by nature.

4. Gaoyiling

Danxia landform in Gaoyiling, Chenzhou, Hunan Province is developed from purple sandstone and conglomerate. The landscape is mostly Fangshan, with flat-topped steep cliffs and steep slopes at the foot of rocks.

Danxia Mountain is shaded by trees, surrounded by blue lakes and crisscrossed by mountains and rivers, bringing a rich sense of color layering. It can be said that the return is amazing and I am never tired of walking.

5.pingtan island

As the closest island to Taiwan Province Province, Pingtan Island is extremely low-key in the circle of tourist punching, but it has great potential as an island: the fifth largest island in China, the largest island in Fujian Province, and the second approved international tourist island in China after Hainan.

Pingtan Island also has another literary nickname-"Lan".

Long beaches, unique stone houses and windmills have brought unique charm here. The "blue tears" as beautiful as the Milky Way attract people to explore.

6. Yangjiatang Village

There has always been an ancient village in Songyang, Lishui, and Yangjiatang Village is a particularly tasty one here.

This is a small village with its own reclusive temperament. Built around 1655, surrounded by mountains, the mountains are green, and residential buildings extend upward along the mountain.

When the sun sets, standing at the highest point of the village, the sun shines on the khaki exterior wall, showing a charming golden color.

7.goose spring

Jingxi in Baise, Guangxi, is almost never the first choice for travelers, but Goose Spring is definitely worth going alone.

Giant springs, long bridges, mountains and rivers and villages converge into picturesque pastoral scenery here. The water is as clear as a mirror and surrounded by green hills, which makes people sigh that this is a paradise.

Seeing the scene of people working hard, you will find that it is strikingly similar to the scene described in Tao Yuanming's Return to the Garden.

8. Zhenyuan Ancient City

Zhenyuan Ancient City is located in Qiandongnan Prefecture, Guizhou Province, with a history of more than 2,200 years.

Wuyang River runs through the whole city from west to east, forming a unique style of Taiji ancient city, which is "one water for nine years, one water for two cities". The stone bridge walls are strewn at random, and every brick and stone is telling the vicissitudes of life.

Zhenyuan has a special geographical location and is known as "the hub of Yunnan and Chu and the gateway to eastern Guizhou". It is an important post station of the Southern Silk Road.

It is also the birthplace of China's national heavy industry. Qingxi Iron Works is a joint-stock enterprise founded by Li Hongzhang and Zhang Zhidong in the "Westernization Movement". Zhenyuan still exists today, and people who have been there are telling about its past glory.
