Three Highlights of Dehang Miao Village

The first highlight: the scenery of Wannian Canyon

A listen to ten thousand years? It is naturally a long time, formed through the hardships and vicissitudes of nature, and is a precious legacy left by God, without any artificial carving. Before introducing the Grand Canyon of Germany Airlines, let me give you a brief introduction of Wuling Grand Canyon. Wuling Grand Canyon is located at the intersection of Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau and Wuling Mountains, which was formed by the collision of crustal movement. The whole canyon is of great geological research value. Dehang Grand Canyon is the most wonderful, beautiful and representative part of Wuling Grand Canyon. When geological experts from geological society of china and the United Nations inspected the geological structure profile of the canyon in Dehang Scenic Area, they agreed that the geological profile of Dehang Scenic Area is the only "Golden Nail" profile of the Cambrian geological structure standard in the world, which has extremely high geological and geographical research value. Dehang Grand Canyon is connected to Xuefeng Mountain in the east and Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau in the southwest. Affected by topography, the northwest of the canyon has high mountains and deep valleys, steep cliffs, open and flat southeast, and unique peaks.

Proterozoic Sinian strata are distributed in the eastern part of the canyon, and the rocks in the strata are mostly gray sandstone, black shale and gray-white carbonate rocks. The central and western parts are extremely thick Paleozoic Cambrian strata, and the rocks are mostly gray-white or dark gray dolomite and limestone. So when you go to Dehang Scenic Area, you will understand why the rocks in Dehang Scenic Area are mostly gray-white or black shale bands. Many fossils of trilobites and ancient jellyfish can be seen on the rocks paved in the Cultural Square in the center of Dehang Scenic Area. This shows that Dehang Grand Canyon used to be a primitive ocean 670 million years ago. Later, with the crustal movement, the seawater rose and gradually became land. After being eroded by the wind, frost, rain and snow of nature, the unique geological landscape of Dehang Grand Canyon was gradually formed.

You may ask, is the geological characteristics of Dehang the same as that of Zhangjiajie? We have already seen the mountains in Zhangjiajie, so there is no need to see the mountains in Dehang. If you think so, you are all wet. The geological characteristics of Dehang are similar to those of Zhangjiajie, but they are essentially different. The rocks in Zhangjiajie belong to seasonal sandstone, and the peak forest landform is masculine, while the limestone in Dehang is limestone. The landform of the peak forest, like the Miao family Aya in the scenic spot, is full of graceful beauty. Dehang has nine small canyons, among which Jiulong River, Hunxia River and Yuquan River are the most famous. ) There are more than 20 waterfalls in the scenic spot, with a height of190m, among which the quicksand waterfall, with a vertical height of 216m, is the waterfall with the highest drop in China, with a height of 438+0 1 on April 23rd, 1965.

The second highlight: the Millennium Miao village style

Miao village is a major feature of Dehang, where folk customs are extremely rich. I have concluded that Miao people have five beauties: the beauty of faith, the beauty of love, the beauty of clothing, the beauty of singing and dancing, and the beauty of life. Because of time, I won't introduce them one by one. Dehang is also known as "the drum town in the world". So here, encouragement is extremely welcome! There are many tricks and experts. You can catch a little girl with a runny nose at DeHang, and she may give you a set of inspiration that will surprise you. Miao drums are divided into two types: celebrating the year and celebrating the spirit. What do you mean? On major festivals, when the door is blocked to welcome guests, the performance is to celebrate the New Year's encouragement, while the performance is to celebrate the gods. In Dehang Miao Village, there have been five generations of Miao drum kings and two generations of monkey kings (simply explaining monkey drums). Among them, the first generation of Miao drum Wang Longyingtang was received by Chairman Mao and Premier Zhou Enlai and awarded the title. Dehang Miao drum once sounded in Singapore and other places and went to the world.

The third highlight: a century-old wonder of roads and bridges

Speaking of the wonders of roads and bridges in Dehang, what do you think of first? Is it the "world's first suspension bridge" across the Dehang Grand Canyon? Dehang Extra Large Suspension Bridge is the longest steel suspension bridge across a canyon in the world. It is a super-large bridge across the Dehang Grand Canyon on the Hangrui expressway. Located 335 meters above Aizhai, it adopts 7 1 pair of slings and wire ropes. The span reached1176m, and the investment was 100 billion yuan, creating four "firsts in the world": first, the main span of the bridge1176m, and the suspension bridge across the canyon ranked first in the world; Second, it is the first time to adopt the structural design scheme of complete separation of tower and beam, which is the first in the world; Third, the rock anchor sling structure is adopted for the first time, and carbon fiber is used as prestressed reinforcement, which is the first in the world; 4. For the first time, the "rail-cable sliding method" is adopted to erect steel truss beams, which is the first in the world and is expected to be opened to traffic at the end of March 20 12.

In addition to this spectacular suspension bridge, there are roads, because there is a road with a history of hundreds of years, that is, Aizhai Highway. Aizhai Highway is located on the northern slope of Aizhai, which is called "Aizhai Natural Barrier". It is the most dangerous checkpoint on Xiangxi highway, ranking first in the country with dangerous terrain and ingenious engineering design.

To sum up, Dehang and Ganzhou have gathered seven tourist attractions in western Hunan, namely, the Liusha Waterfall with the highest drop in the country, the century-old wonder of harmony between man and nature with the most world-renowned brand in the country, the most complete Miao customs and customs in the country, the "Ganzhou Confucian Temple", one of the best-preserved Confucian temples in the country, the place with the most concentrated intangible cultural heritage and the most settled inheritors in the country. The country's oldest, most ethnic and unique gatehouse is the most masculine ancient city in China.
