Travel Notes in Anshun

My hometown Anshun, Guizhou is a place with unique scenery. My hometown is beautiful! The Custer landforms are unique in the world!

The most beautiful place is the world-famous Huangguoshu Waterfall. At that time, Xu Xiake wrote with affectionate pen and ink in "Xu Xiake's Travels" that "the sound of the waterfall shook the sky and could be heard from ten miles away." He used Li Bai's poem "Flying down three thousand feet, it is suspected that the Milky Way has fallen from the sky." to describe the Huangguoshu Waterfall. It's very appropriate. If you are watching the Huangguoshu Waterfall on a sunny and rainy day, the red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple rainbow next to the waterfall will be even more amazing! Then call it Caiqiao! Maybe we can also become immortals, fly across the colorful bridge on a crane, and walk from one end to the other. That would be pleasant. In fact, there is a cave in the middle of Huangguoshu Waterfall called Shuilian Cave. You can cross the waterfall curtain and watch the waterfall falling in front of your eyes. The majestic scenery is something Xiake has never seen before. If Xu Xiake were alive and came to Huangguoshu Waterfall again and entered the Water Curtain Cave in person, he would definitely have a good collection of travel notes. The painter Liu Haisu came to Huangguoshu to sketch at the age of ninety, which shows how charming Huangguoshu is!

The second is the famous scenic spot - Anshun Dragon Palace. Dragon Palace has mountains, water and caves, especially the caves, which make people linger and forget to leave. Taking a small boat along the Tianchi Lake and slowly entering the cave, all kinds of stalactites come into view: the big stone stands thousands of feet on its side, like a longevity star, and has endless fun; like a girl standing gracefully; like a lotus in full bloom; although it is very scary inside, it is not scary. Because there are many people traveling together. At the extreme point, you can only hear the sound of the waterfall: if you look carefully, the Dragon Palace waterfall is pouring down, which is like a joy! This sight is truly amazing! After leaving the Dongting and climbing up the stone steps, we arrived at the Bamboo Forest Park. The bamboo there provides a shade! The sentence "No bamboo makes people vulgar" comes to mind. The Dragon Palace has mountains, water and bamboos, which shows how wonderful the Dragon Palace is. Resting on the stone bench, looking at the blue sky, white clouds, and farmhouses in the distance, I felt particularly happy. Isn’t this a rare fairyland on earth? There is also Xuantang Lake. I heard people say that the water is rotating, so it is named Xuantang Lake.

Thirdly, I went to Hongshan Lake in the north of Anshun and took a boat to float in the lake. There were some anglers around me, quietly staring at the floats. That was the happiness of anglers. The reflection of the Nine-hole Bridge is in the water, the drunkenness is rippling in the lake, and the mood is extremely joyful!

In Xixiu District, the White Stone Pagoda on the top of Xixiu Mountain is the most famous. The surrounding environment of Tashan Square is beautiful and it is a place to take a rest. Yuantong Temple is under construction. There are many high-rise buildings such as Bank of China and China Construction Bank nearby, and it is a prosperous scene. The lotus flowers are in full bloom in the garden at the center of Xinda Cross Street. Looking at the cars and horses and pedestrians coming and going, I think to myself that they are creating life with their hard-working hands!

Friends! The beautiful scenery of my hometown Anshun is not limited to the aspects mentioned above. If you come to my hometown Anshun, you will definitely be attracted by the beautiful scenery here. Friends, we look forward to your visit to my hometown Anshun. You will be impressed by the mountains, rivers, people and things there.
