Travel notes related to history

Just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, at noon on September 12th, a tour group of 68 of us embarked on a journey to Wulong Furong Cave, Wujiang Gallery Line and Fairy Mountain. Our first stop was to the Fairy Mountain National Forest Park, which is known as the "Switzerland of the East". The average altitude there is 1,900 meters, with 330,000 acres of forest and 100,000 acres of grassland forming a giant natural "oxygen bar". It is the largest alpine grassland around Chongqing.

It used to take 4 hours to get to Wulong, but now it only takes 2 hours. After having dinner in a small town in Wulong, we ran straight to Fairy Mountain. We arrived at Fairy Mountain at around 7 o'clock in the evening and stayed at the Fairy Mountain Hotel. The night in Fairy Mountain after the Mid-Autumn Festival was very cold. We put on the clothes we brought, but we still felt the slightest chill coming towards us. In the evening, the bonfire was lit, and we sat around the bonfire, grilling lamb chops. Some of them grilled lamb skewers, and some played the game of jumping on the train. But I admired the moon by the bonfire and felt the night sky of Fairy Mountain Forest Park with my soul. The charm of "the fifteenth moon is sixteen round"; the moon is big and round, as if hanging on the treetops. It seems to be very close to us, but yet very far away. The moon travels through the clouds, and the shadows of the trees are in the dark night. swaying in the middle. The moon, clouds, tree shadows, the tent-like house not far away, and us sitting around the campfire together formed a romantic picture of a moonlit prairie night. Everyone was in high spirits, roasting mutton and singing songs by the bonfire until late at night, enjoying the plateau bonfire party and moon-viewing.

The morning air in Fairy Mountain is fresh. We came to the Fairy Mountain grassland, where you can run horses, archery, fly kites, go karts, and paragliders. The Fairy Mountain Horse Racing Course is even more vast, with grassy grasslands stretching endlessly; people and livestock roam leisurely there, the sky is translucent blue, and the sun shines all over the green carpet, giving people a feeling of wanting to sing loudly. A group of our friends sang at the top of our lungs, causing our friends on the lawn opposite to sing to us. Here we sang "The Vast Grassland, My Home" and there "The Girl Opposite Look Over" and some even started singing and dancing. , middle-aged and elderly friends forget their own age, as if they have returned to their youth and go crazy with the young people. Everyone let out the irritability that has settled in the city for a long time and enjoyed the fresh, quiet and leisurely grassland atmosphere and scenery.

Wulong’s Tiansheng Sanqiao is the Wujiang Gallery Karst Geopark, a national 4A tourist area, with the second largest tiankeng group in the world (***7 tiankeng). The pit is connected to the natural bridge, and the bridge is connected to the pit. The depth and diameter of the tiankeng are more than 200 meters and 150 meters. It is majestic and spectacular, and the scenery is beautiful and pleasant. Dustpan-shaped tiankeng, with various shapes and changes. Among them, Zhongshiyuan is the largest tiankeng with an area of ??more than 300,000 square meters. In addition, there is also a group of natural bridges growing in the tiankeng scenic area, which is Asia's largest in terms of number and scale. . It is majestic, strange, dangerous and unique, and is a rare geological wonder ecotourism area in the country. It is most attractive with its three large-scale and majestic natural stone bridges. When we arrived at the Third Tiansheng Bridge, the tour guide told us that we had to walk down the tunnel around the three Tiansheng Bridges to the bottom of the pit. It usually takes two and a half hours. If we don't turn back, we can take a cable car on the way back. We moved along the pit to the bottom of the pit of Tiansheng Sanqiao.

As the saying goes, the path leads to seclusion. The further you go, the more dangerous and beautiful the scenery becomes. You can see beautiful forests, green peaks, swaying bamboos, and the fragrance of birds and flowers. Stepping into it, you will see straight walls and cliffs, flying springs and flowing water, and the magnificent Cui Wei. You can see very unique scenery while traveling in the valley, and you can use your imagination. If you don’t believe it, take a look: On the opposite mountain peak, huge rocks are arranged in an orderly manner, lying or standing, looming in the grass and forest, as if the setting sun on the peak is like a herd. When returning at night, you see an old woman leaning on the door and looking at the door, and a shepherd boy whipping the cattle back. , the moon is above the willow tops, the cool evening breeze is blowing on your face, the cows and sheep are appearing on the grass, the dogs are barking in the village, and the firewood door lights are flashing, exuding the tranquility and peace of a mountain village, implying the primitive simplicity, tranquility and nature like a peach blossom garden...

Walking through the valleys and woods, the mood was joyful. Everyone was watching the scenery and chatting at the same time. Suddenly, a huge boulder stood independently in front of us. It turns out that we have come to one of the stunning views of the Three Natural Bridges, "Qingtian Yizhuan". People call it the "source of life". It really makes us feel confused after seeing nature. It allows us to appreciate the creation and relationship between heaven and earth. The miraculous craftsmanship of nature. When we came to the "top of the mountain", we held the railing and looked into the distance. We had a panoramic view of mountains, streams and valleys, and we had an unobstructed view of famous mountains and scenic spots. Lyrical and nostalgic, I look at the poem "When we are at the top of the mountain, we can see all the small mountains at a glance", the heroic mood suddenly arises, the mountains are high and the sky is far away, the peaks are strange and dangerous, I am happy to be at the top of the mountain, there are many ambitions, I really feel like I am worried and bowing my head, but there are few poems.

Stepping under the bridge, you will see a quiet stream, a wonderland of green fields, and mountain flowers everywhere. The entire mountain, spring, and bridge together form a perfect natural landscape picture. We walked and took photos, and we walked for three hours without realizing it. Feeling a little tired, we took the shuttle bus to Hang Mian.

Wulong is a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. Its Furong Cave is also a national 4A-level scenic spot, located next to the Furong River. It was discovered in 1993 and opened to the outside world in 1994. It is one of the largest cave groups in the world, with a total length of 2,700 meters, including almost all types of stalactite deposition. We walked into the cave with the tour guide, and while listening to the tour guide's explanation, we appreciated the magnificence and magic of the creation of heaven and earth.

The "Source of Life", "Coral Yao Pool", "Big Screen Explosion", "King of Stone Flowers" and "Hinetooth Crystal Flower Pond" in the cave are called the "Five Wonders" of Furong Cave and are praised by world cave experts as "a gorgeous underground art palace". . In particular, the Coral Yao Pool is composed of light yellow calcite crystal flowers and floating stalagmites in the pool. The pool area is about 30 square meters, the water depth is 0.5-1.3 meters, and the water quality is clear and transparent. The Coral Yao Pool is the largest underwater crystal flower. Rarely seen in the world, the two emerald-like stalagmites growing on the crystal flower raft are like the two young fairies in the Yao Pond. They are also treasures in the cave, unique in the world, and the entire upper space on the coral pond is even more unique. The dazzling array of goose tube stalactites, stone mantles, stone flowers, curled stones and other types of sediments are all covered with it, making it look extremely luxurious and rich. It is the iconic scenic spot of the cave known as the best cave in the world. It is said that this scene is unique in the country and only in the world. There is only Si Cave, but its water depth and area are not as large as Furong Cave. It can be said that "this scene can only be seen in heaven, but it can only be heard several times in the world."

There is cross-river speed skating on the Furongdong River. When you get to Wulong, you can also go rafting at Huangbaidu, but it is not possible because it is the dry season. Traveling not only broadens horizons and increases knowledge, but is also good for the body.
