Tourist guide to Zhenyuan ancient town Recommended scenic spots in Zhenyuan ancient town

Zhenyuan is located in the southeast of Guizhou. Zhenyuan ancient town is known as "the hub of Yunnan and Chu and the gateway to eastern Guizhou". Zhenyuan ancient town has a history of more than 2000 years since it was built during the reign of Emperor Gaozu. The ancient town is not big, so it is worth spending a day visiting. The following small series will introduce the travel strategy of Zhenyuan Ancient Town.

Zhenyuan is surrounded by Wuyang River step by step. This time we went to the river to clean up the silt, and several excavators started at the same time. Master excavator probably graduated from Lan Xiang Advanced Edition, and he can also listen to music while operating the excavator. In the afternoon, I know how to wander around the riverside of Zhenyuan, patting and patting all the way, carefree and happy.

Shiping Mountain, climb high and look far.

Shiping Mountain, it is said that the top of the mountain is infinitely beautiful, and you can see the whole town from a distance. If the weather is fine, we can choose to go up the mountain to watch the sunrise in the morning, or watch the sunset at night, because it is cloudy and rainy on this day, and there is neither sunset nor sunrise the next day, so we have to climb up and have a panoramic view.

The mountain is steep and windy, and there are signs of rain. It took less than 40 minutes to reach the summit! Once you climb to the top of the mountain, you will see that all the other mountains look short under the sky. Shiping, the scenery at the top of the mountain is infinitely good, opposite the green leather train that passes through the mountain from time to time, overlooking the town. At this time, it is getting dark, and you can see the lights flashing by the river. Before it was completely dark, we slapped and rushed down the hill. It is suggested that friends can choose to go to Shiping Mountain to watch the sunrise in the morning if the weather is fine in Zhenyuan, which is not bad.

Shangjie Zhu Sheng Bridge

Coming down from the mountain, we went straight to Zhu Sheng Bridge.

Cars cross the old road, giving the ancient town a strong commercial color!

Qinglong cave, ancient architectural complex

Qinglongdong ancient building complex is the only ancient building complex in the world where Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism are integrated. It is surrounded by mountains and waters, and naturally blends with cliffs, ancient trees, vines, rock edges and caves.

Built in the 21st year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty (1388), there are 40 single buildings, covering an area of 2 1000 square meters, with a total existing building area of 6,665 square meters. It consists of Qinglong Cave, Zhongyuan Cave, Ziyang Cave, Wanshou Palace, Xiangluyan and Zhu Sheng Bridge.

Recommended route for visiting Zhenyuan Ancient Town Recommended route: Turn right at the entrance of the town, don't cross the new bridge, go all the way along the river, go to Qinglong Cave (a religious building, you can buy tickets if you are interested), cross the Zhu Sheng Bridge, and there is a scenic path leading to Shiping Mountain. From here, you can avoid the tickets of Shiping Mountain, and there is a section of Miao Great Wall at the top of the mountain.

Renshou Lane and Chongzikou Lane are the must-see places. I recommend going to Renshou Lane and Chongzikou Lane first, having a snack, and then going up the mountain through Sifang Lane, so that you can overlook the panoramic view of the ancient town at dusk, then taking a night view at sunset, and then going down the mountain to eat supper.

Sleeping in the next day, visiting Heping Village (World War II Prisoner of War Shelter, free with ID card) or taking a cruise to Wuyang River Scenic Area.
