One-day tour of Xinglong Heyuan scenic spot

Mihe River source scenic spot is located in Hebei Province, which is a famous minority scenic spot. It may be strange to most people, but it has an unparalleled cool natural landscape and is called a paradise on earth. This is a detailed introduction of the scenic spot.

Address:

Heyuan Scenic Spot, Northwest Corner of Qingsongling Village, Xinglong County, Chengde City, Hebei Province

Miheyuan scenic spot is known as the first spring in Beijing and Tianjin.

After the heavy rain, the air is moist and the light is just right; Looking from a distance, the blue mountains are looming in the mist; There is no dazzling light, which makes the nearby mountains more beautiful, so the weather can't be satisfied. Presumably, the valley where Miheyuan is located will be more beautiful than usual, so we temporarily changed our plans and went to Miheyuan.

Because there are no marks on the map, you can't search for location and navigation. After many inquiries, I learned that the scenic spot is not far from Qingsongling Village, so I took the Venus Line to the north. After a tunnel, there is a gas station on the right side of the road. The intersection opposite the gas station is the entrance to the scenic spot. There is a big stone at the entrance, which says "the source of Jiaohe River", and there are scenic spots signs and guide maps next to it.

There is no charge for scenic spots. Drive along the cement road from the entrance, and you will reach the first spring in Beijing and Tianjin for 3.6 kilometers. The road is good, but it's a little narrow, so it's not convenient to take the wrong bus. There are several small scenic spots along the way, including rare species of wild cherry blossoms, Monkey Cave, Fairy Bridge and Natural Botanical Garden. There is also a place to shoot TV series. Every time I go to a small scenic spot, there is a sign on the roadside with an introduction to the scenic spot.

Introduction of scenic spots

It can be seen that this road should have been a scenic path, because there are few parking places. Although there is a small open space near each scenic spot sign, there is no place to put the car at all. Taking up some roads will bring great inconvenience to passing vehicles, so we only took a few photos at Monkey Cave and Xianren Bridge on the way and went straight to the first spring in Beijing and Tianjin.

Mihe River originates from Qingsongling, flows through Jizhou, Pinggu and Sanhe, and finally joins the canal in Baodi District of Tianjin and flows into Bohai Sea. The first spring in Beijing and Tianjin is one of the sources of the Mihe River. When you get closer, you can see the spring spewing out of the ground, which is different from the waterfall flowing down from a height. It's amazing, and it's a constant temperature unfrozen spring that flows all the year round.

The first spring in Beijing and Tianjin

The tourist guide map of the scenic spot says that the first spring in Beijing and Tianjin is the destination, but it is not. The good thing is yet to come. From here, follow the cement road to the depths of the mountain until the end, which is about1.5km. The scenery in this section is better than the previous 3.6 kilometers.

The mountains in the distance are misty, the nearby hillsides are lush with vegetation, and various unknown mountain flowers are blooming on the roadside. The petals are covered with raindrops, crystal clear. A winding mountain road takes us to an unknown green world.

This green world is really good. There is no dirty air and no noise in the world. Eyes are green, ears are full of birds and insects. The aura between heaven and earth seems to be completely released at this moment. I took a few deep breaths and felt completely transparent. Feel the nature at the same time, or sing with birds, or dance with grass elves, really happy.

Tour methods and routes:

If you start hiking from the entrance of the scenic spot, you can park your car at the first small scenic spot. The open space next to Zhongshangyuan Stone is fairly wide, but there are many vehicles passing by on the way from the entrance of Beijing and Tianjin to the first spring, and the experience is not very good. So friends who want to walk all the way had better choose early morning.

If you come at other times, park your car at No.1 Spring in Beijing and Tianjin, and walk only 1.5km behind. Navigation can set the end point at Yulugou Village, and you can see the scenic spot signs when you turn from the Venus Line to the mountain.
