82 1 km walks into the low-key treasure tourist destination in the southwest and encounters the mysterious Miao customs.

-This is an original book written by Gigi Lai 187-

When it comes to scenic spots, many people are no strangers. The novel Tale of Scenic Spots, Jin Yong's martial arts novel the legendary swordsman, and the comic book Bad Man all depict the smiles and gestures of people from this area as if they were mysterious and strange, so it has also become a magical place full of mystery and toxic imagination on the land of China.

Miaojiang is an important part of China's territory, covering almost the whole Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. In a broad sense, Miaojiang takes Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau as the center, including the southwest mountainous areas where the surrounding ethnic minorities are distributed. In a narrow sense, Miao territory mainly refers to today's Miao inhabited areas. First, it is called "Guizhou Miaojiang" in today's Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture of Guizhou Province; Second, the border area between northeast Guizhou and Xiangxi, namely Songtao Miao Autonomous County of Guizhou Province and Xiangxi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture of Hunan Province, is called "Miaojiang of Hunan Province".

After the establishment of modern China's national system, Miaojiang was no longer used as a regional concept, and its broad sense was replaced by the concept of "Southwest" in the sense of cultural geography.

Qingming holiday is coming. Come to Amway for a short leisure trip to go on road trip today. Let's walk into Miaojiang River, approach the mysterious Miao customs, approach the unique mountains and valleys in Guizhou, look at the border town (yes, it's not the ancient town of Fenghuang) written by Mr. Shen Congwen, and drive into the Gao Qiao Aizhai Bridge, which is the best in the world at the junction of Guizhou and Chongqing. Aizhai Panshan Highway ... You deserve everything!

Miao nationality, as the earliest rice planting nation in China. Its history can be traced back to more than 5000 years ago. Its ancestor was Chiyou, the leader of Jiuli tribe in the Yanhuang period. After Chiyou was defeated in the battle for deer, part of Jiuli moved south to the Yangtze River valley. There are Yunmeng osawa in the north and Sanxiang and Lianghu in the south. The descendants of Jiuli brought the production technology and water control experience of rice agriculture to this land.

After hundreds of years of production and development, it became strong again during the Yao, Shun and Yu dynasties, and established a famous and powerful tribal alliance or country in history, that is, a "three-Miao" or "three-Miao country" composed of the Miao nationality as the main body and other small tribal groups.

In the later struggle with several tribal alliances in the Central Plains, Sanmiao was defeated, and then Miao began a long migration. From East China to Central Plains, Central Plains to Central South, and Central South to Southwest, they migrated to all parts of China. In the second half of the 20th century, some of them were forced to migrate to the west, so "migration" is a major feature of the Miao nationality.

Before driving from Libo, first visit the local ancient town of Libo, and you can also visit Daqi Xiaopaifang, Maolan and Shuichunhe Scenic Area. Drive along G243 National Road, pass through Qin Zhou and Sandu, and Miao Ling is just around the corner.

The watershed of Miao Ling, Pearl River and Yangtze River. From Huishui to Leigong Mountain in the east, it is about 180 km long and 50 km wide, spanning Danzhai, Kaili, Leishan and Taijiang. Named after the Miao people live in concentrated communities.

The famous music "Morning in Miao Ling" depicts the beautiful scenery of Miao Ling in the morning. The sky brightened slightly, and the diaojiao building on the side of the mountain slowly showed high and low levels of arrangement. The mountains in the distance faintly show the green of the Woods and the yellow of the rice fields. The lingering morning mist hangs over the Miao village in the arms of the mountains. Cocks crowed and dogs barked, and there were more and more voices. Smoke curled up from the kitchen and Miao Village woke up. ...

Go on, cross Danzhai, and go to Kaili along provincial highway S62. On the same day, you can visit Qianhu Miao Village and Langde Shangzhai. If you have enough time, you can stay in the local area for a day or two and feel the Miao customs.

Don't go out in a hurry the next day, take a rest first, then start from Kaili, along G60 Shanghai-Kunming Expressway, cross Taijiang River and Jianhe River, drive into the city, and visit the famous Zhenyuan ancient town and Wuyang River scenery. ...

When we arrived at Shiqian, there were abundant hot springs here. Friends with plenty of time can go to Shiqian for a hot spring in the evening after visiting Zhenyuan Ancient Town, and then go to Fan Jing Scenic Area the next day.

Friends who want to move on can turn to G354 National Road and drive directly to Fan Jing Scenic Area. On the left side of the road is the famous Wuling Mountain.

Wuling Mountain is the watershed of Wujiang River, Yuanjiang River and Lishui River. It is located at the junction of Hubei, Hunan, Chongqing and Guizhou, and belongs to the eastward extension of Wu Yun Mountain in Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. The area covered by Wuling Mountain Range is called Wuling Mountain Area. Because of the diversity of biological species, it is known as the "Central China Animal and Plant Gene Bank".

On the third day, drive from Fanjingshan Scenic Area, cross Huangjiaba along X585 County Road to Gan Long, turn to G326 National Road, cross Xiushan, Xiangxi, Jishou and other places, drive to Phoenix, and stay at a local inn for the night.

When crossing the border town on the way, you can visit the ancient town of Hong 'an and feel the border town customs written by Shen Congwen in the real world.

Pass through Aizhai Town and enter Aizhai Panshan Highway, which is a national highway built to meet the needs of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. The highway is 6 kilometers long, the horizontal distance is less than 100 meters, the height difference is 440 meters, and there are three sharp bends 13. Because of the dangerous terrain and skillful engineering design, it ranks first in the country.

At that time, more than 2,000 migrant workers fought for seven months to build this road, and more than 200 people died here, so it is also called the worst road in China.

Walking on the Aizhai Panshan Highway, you can look up at Aizhai Bridge, which passes through the clouds like a sword and crosses the Dehang Grand Canyon. When the bridge was completed and opened to traffic, it was famous as "the longest suspension bridge in the world".

Now, every day, tourists from home and abroad travel to and from the sightseeing passage of the bridge, enter the mysterious Xiangxi, and feel the wonders of the century-old bridge, the customs of the Millennium Miao village and the scenery of the Millennium Canyon.

In Phoenix, there are rich scenic spots in the county. If you have enough time, you can stay in the local area for a day or two and feel the slow life of the ancient city.

Suggested driving node

"From Sichuan to Hunan, there is an official road to the east. When this road goes to a small town called Tea Cave near the Xiangxi border, there is a small stream, and there is a small white tower by the stream, under which families live. There is only one old man, one girl and one yellow dog in this family. " -Shen Congwen's Border Town

On the first day, I drove from Libo and passed Sandu and Danzhai. You can visit Qianhu Miao Village in Kaili on the same day.

The next day, friends who don't need to drive on the road early in the morning or go to Shiqian Hot Springs can go directly to Fanjing Mountain Scenic Area.

On the third day, today's trip is very easy, and we will pass by the border town, so we can stop and feel the border town style in Shen Congwen's literature in the real world.
