Chongqing has many hidden Jiangxin Islands. When the tide is low in spring and autumn, it becomes a good place to visit the islands. Nanpingba, an island in the middle of the Yangtze River, is located in Maliusui Town, Banan, covering an area of ??about 1.4 square kilometers.

Now that the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, you can see the entire sea of ??grass on the island. Looking from a distance, the vast expanse of lush grassland blends with the green mountains and waters in the distance, making it look like a paradise. The island is sparsely populated and the surrounding air is fresh. You basically own the entire island! Kite flying and hiking are both good options here.

3. Yubei Tongluoshan Mine Park

In the 1970s, it was a quarry for processing gravel. It was gradually abandoned, leaving mines of different sizes and depths. No one could foresee that in later days, rainwater would collect in the pit. Due to the long-term erosion of rocks by the accumulated water in the mine pit, the color of the water gradually turned into emerald green and blue, creating a wonderful scene of clear water, cliffs and deep pools. The devastated mines in the past have become unique pond lakes, and the quarries have become mine parks.

The beauty here seems to be unknown and unknown. Only the lake is clear and green, and the surrounding mountains are quiet and inaccessible. It seems to be isolated from the world. It is called Chongqing Xiaojiuzhai by netizens~

: Travel tips

1. Safety first, safety first, safety first, three times! The stones on the road and in the shallow water are all angular and very sharp!

2. There are no trees in the barren mountains. Please pay attention to sun protection. Sunglasses and hats are required. Sunscreen should be worn on the head.

3. Bring a bench and blanket. There are sharp rocks everywhere on the barren mountain, and it hurts to sit on the ground buttocks.

4. You should also bring enough drinking water and dry food.

You can't play hard if you're tired and hungry!
