221 Jiaozuo Yuntai Mountain Travel Guide Yuntai Mountain Two-day Tour Guide

In 221, many tourists who want to go to Yuntai Mountain in Jiaozuo, Henan Province will ask this topic. Everyone feels different, but their understanding is the same. You can feel different styles here. Let's share the specific ticket prices.

guided by the tour guide, we began to visit Hongshi Gorge, the core scenic spot of Yuntai Mountain. This is the most beautiful scenic spot in Yuntai Mountain, which belongs to the peculiar Danxia landform. The exposed rock cliffs are all red. For thousands of years, the canyons that have been deeply formed by water bodies are matched with the strange stone waterfalls, which show the wonders of nature.

The Hongshi Gorge is 1,5m long, 5-2m wide and nearly 1m high, and the canyon is tens of meters deep in a zigzag shape.

overlook the scenery of Hongshixia from a height.

This theme monument of red rock has a history of 1-1.4 billion years. The wavy lines behind the inscription engrave the blending of water and stone at that time, witnessing the magic of nature that water drops and stones wear.

Going down the stairs into the canyon, the cliff of the canyon is steep, cool and damp. When walking in the canyon, you need to bow your head, bend over or pass sideways from time to time, and its danger is strange. Hongshixia is said to be a geological relic caused by crustal movement 1.4 billion years ago, and it is called "shrinking landscape world and expanding art bonsai".

the ancient beach-this piece of red Shi Ying sandstone under our feet, with a thickness of more than 15 meters, was formed in the coastal beach environment around 1.2 billion years ago. With the rise and fall of sea level at that time, this area sometimes sank to the bottom of the sea, and sometimes emerged from the sea, thus forming the sedimentary structures of coastal shape, aeolian dune shape and intertidal shape, leaving rich sedimentary structural relics such as cross bedding, wave marks and mud cracks in rocks. The red color in sandstone is formed by iron oxidation. Because of the uneven iron content, the tone of sandstone is different, forming various beautiful patterns.

In Hongshixia, rocks of various geological ages can be seen, from limestone 4 million years ago to quartzite 1 billion years ago.

When walking along the plank road in the valley, you can see that there are many cliffs on both sides, and the whole path is a one-way street, and only two people can pass at the narrowest place.

In the first sight, the water in the stream here cuts the mountain, and the rapids come down, and the cliffs are towering. cui wei confronts each other, leaving only a first sight between the two mountains.

In the face of nature's uncanny workmanship, any adjective looks pale and powerless, compared with photos, it can better express the beauty of the canyon.

introduction of stalactites: stalactites here are formed by the long-term deposition of aqueous solution containing calcium carbonate adsorbed on the rock wall at the crack of quartzite after sufficient water contained in Wenpanyu mountain permeates vertically along limestone. Because there is no sunshine here all day long, and the calcium is excellent, the white crystal-clear stalactites are formed today.

at p>12: 17, it takes about 1 hour and 3 minutes to reach Huanglong Waterfall. Huanglong Waterfall, a silvery white water body pouring down from the top of the valley, is natural and elegant, and the sound of the waterfall is like a shower, like a tear, which is very spectacular. If you are close to the waterfall, you will be splashed with water.

Ovary Lake

Walk along the upward steps for more than 2 minutes, and then walk to the exit at 12: 37. The exit is Ovary Lake.

Zifang Lake is an artificial lake cut off along a deep canyon. It is named after the legend that Zhang Liang, a famous figure in the Han Dynasty, lived in seclusion here. The lake is 2 meters wide from east to west and 4, meters long from north to south, with a maximum water depth of 65 meters and a reservoir capacity of 12 million cubic meters. It hangs at the end of Hongshi Gorge. The karst peaks on both sides of the river and the lake complement each other, and the dynamic and static changes each other, creating a myriad of scenes.

Xiaozhaigou: Tanpu Gorge, Quanpu Gorge and Macaca Valley

After visiting the Ovary Lake, take a bus to Xiaozhaigou, the next scenic spot. Xiaozhaigou contains three scenic spots: Tanpu Gorge, Quanpu Gorge and Macaque Valley.

according to legend, Xiaozhaigou was the camp of Liu Wuzhou and Li Shimin, heroes of the peasant uprising in the late Sui Dynasty. The total length is about 2 kilometers, the mountains are opposite, and the middle is a canyon. At the bottom of the valley, boulders stand tall and streams trickle; Three steps and one spring, five steps and one pool are known as "pools, waterfalls and rivers". The ditch is mild in spring and winter and cool in summer and autumn, also known as "Changchun ditch". The most spectacular is the Y waterfall pool, which is more than 2 meters high and connected from top to bottom, forming a "Y" shape. Under the waterfall, water accumulates into a pool, with emerald green and an area of more than 1 square meters. There are large areas around the pool for recreation. There are also water features such as water curtain cave, Phoenix Beaded Beads, White Snake Out of the Hole, Turtle Spitting Beads and black dragon Spray. At the end of the ditch, surrounded by cliffs, looking up at the sky, there is a feeling of sitting in the well and watching the sky. In the gullies and depressions, springs converge into a shallow lake, which is said to be the horse drinking pool in Li Shimin. There are many strange stones in the berth, including Butterfly Stone, Sword Test Stone, Pointing Table, Zhou Shi and other scenic spots.

Tanpu Gorge

Tanpu Gorge is the main representative of the best in Yuntai Mountain Gorge. The scenery in the valley is pleasant, just like the south of the Yangtze River. "Three steps and one spring, five steps and one waterfall, ten steps and one pool" is a true portrayal of the beautiful scenery of the pool waterfall gorge. The ditch is 127 meters long and runs from north to south. In the winding ditch, there is a stream, and its bed is composed of layers of natural rock steps with different heights, different colors, different widths, twists and turns and different shapes. Streams or blue waves ripple, or divide water into small streams, or merge into turbulent rapids, or pour or fall into a silvery waterfall, and water under the waterfall becomes a colorful pool?

The big stone is shaped like a peach, and the word "longevity" is engraved on it, which is the longevity stone.

lover's waterfall. The waterfalls fall from the high rock, and the waterfalls are divided into three layers, and each fault has two waterfalls that attract each other and flow into a pool, such as lovers' ears grinding and whispering.

there are many tourists, so take photos.

The scenic spot here is called-Golden Dragon Sleeping Wave.

The scenic spot here is called Y Waterfall. The waterfall is more than ten meters high and the pool under the waterfall is five or six meters deep. Hanging on the two-story steps, it is in a zigzag shape, and under the waterfall, a clear water is crystal clear and the water surface is wide.

"There is no fish when the water is clear", but here it is just the opposite.

travertine dam and water curtain waterfall. Under the U-shaped cliff wall of Tanpu Garden, collapsed rock blocks with a width of more than 1 meters and a length of several hundred meters are distributed. When the spring water flows through the collapsed body, the calcium precipitated in the water keeps gathering at the outer edge, forming a travertine dam tens of meters high. Herbaceous plants are flourishing on the dam, and the spring water flows along the vegetation, which is like a silk tapestry and a flowing water curtain, so it is called water curtain cave.

The fountain of youth is also called Jasper Lake. The water in Jasper Pond is green, clear and beautiful, just like a piece of Jasper embedded in a canyon. Tourists have taken the spring water to drink, which means: immortality.

There is a huge stone on the way, which is the "Sword Test Stone of King Tang". Legend has it that when Li Shimin, the king of the Tang Dynasty, crusaded against Liu Wuzhou, the descendants of Xiang Xiu, one of the seven sages of the bamboo forest, presented a sword to Li Shimin. The straight crack left on the boulder was the trace left by the king of the Tang Dynasty when he tried his sword, hence the name "Tang Wang tried his sword stone".

arrive at Xiyan Lake at p>14: 57. It is said that the "Seven Sages of Bamboo Forest" in the Eastern Jin Dynasty lived in seclusion in Yuntai Mountain. They were all great talents with charming scenery at that time. They often waved pen and ink, wrote articles and washed inkstones in this pool, so this pool was named "Xiyan Lake"

and arrived at the Dragon and Phoenix Wall at p>15 o'clock, which was located at the end of Tanpu Gorge. Since 2.6 million years, due to the interaction of surface water and groundwater, a valley wall with three cliffs, one open side, a small mouth and a big belly has been formed, which is shaped like an urn.

Looking up, a flying spring spouted from a 4-meter-high cliff, forming a scenic spot of hanging springs and waterfalls. The waterfall flew down to earth for half a day. -Li Mengyang (Ming)

Thousands of rocks and valleys have spared no effort, and only when you look far can you know the source is high. Can the stream stay, after all, the sea is a wave. —— Li Chen (Tang)

You can't know the source is high until you go through all the pains. -Feng Yunshan (Qing Dynasty)

There are many elites looming, and they fall like thunder. -Jiang Shiquan (Qing Dynasty)

The five-fold and six-fold trend is getting higher and higher, and it has plummeted and roared. -Yuan Mei (Qing)

The humidity is very high, and I am afraid that water droplets will splash on the camera. After enjoying the waterfall, follow the tour guide to the next scenic spot-Macaque Valley.

Macaque Valley

Arrived at Macaque Valley at about 15: 51.

There is the Macaque Valley next to Tanpu Gorge, but there are no wild macaques in the valley. There are several monkeys in an iron cage at the foot of the mountain, and an old monkey-juggling man tied them with a rope to perform a monkey show. At about 16: 3, I ended my visit to Macaque Valley and stayed in the hotel after leaving the scenic spot.

the next day: July 11th

cornus Peak

cornus Peak is the main peak of Yuntai Mountain, with an altitude of 1,297.6 meters. It was called "Fu Busan" in ancient times because it was like a cauldron overturned on the peaks, and the name "Yuntai" probably came from this.

Tickets for Yuntai Mountain are valid for two days. After breakfast the next day, you will go directly to cornus Peak and arrive at the gate of the scenic spot at 9: 47. This is a huge stone standing in the parking lot, engraved with cornus Peak.

cornus Peak is due to a poem "on the mountain holiday thinking of my brothers in shandong" written by Wang Wei, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty: "Being a stranger in a foreign land, I miss my family twice every festive season. Knowing from a distance where brothers climb high, there is one less person in the dogwood "-and famous, there is a white marble statue of Wang Wei at the entrance of the scenic spot.

the scenery taken at the summit. Looking at the mountains from afar, the mountains are green, the breeze is Xu Lai, the clouds are looming, and I am relaxed and happy, and I forget all my insults. Try to ascend the mountain's crest: It dwarfs all peaks under our feet.

Yuntai Mountain is called the "northern peak" in the Taoist system, and it has the same status as Wudang Mountain as the "southern peak". In recent years, Huiyun Dojo Temple was built in the Tang Dynasty, and Xuanyuchang Temple was the most seriously damaged. Xuandi Hall is mainly composed of Zhenwu Hall, Niangniang Hall and Caishen Temple. The bronze statue of Emperor Zhenwu in Zhenwu Hall is 3.45 meters high, which is the highest bronze statue in China. Emperor Zhenwu is a northern god in the myths and legends of Han nationality. It is said that he is the son of Pangu. He is the son of two emperors of Yanhuang. He was born in Fuxi, the ancestor of loong. According to Taoist legend, Emperor Zhen cultivated himself as an immortal in Yuntai Mountain, and was sent to Wudang Mountain to guard it, and Xuandi Palace became his palace. Every year, Emperor Zhenwu will return to Xuandi Hall in Yuntai Mountain and stay in Xili to show his spirit. Therefore, Xuandi Palace has always been a place to burn incense.

it takes about 4 minutes to get down to the parking lot. Then I went to Wanshan Temple.

Wanshan Temple

Wanshan Temple is located under the papillary peak of the Prince's Wall, surrounded by mountains, with beautiful scenery. According to legend, during the Hongwu period of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang built a temple on Yuntai Mountain in order to repay the help of Master Wu Xu, and named it "Wanshan Temple". Master Wu Xu was stationed in Wuxi, known as the 24 th generation of Linji, and Wanshan Temple became the founder of Linji. At that time, there were 64 temples here. At the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, many famous officials became monks here, were hunted down by Qing soldiers, and the temples were destroyed. After reconstruction, it was destroyed in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and rebuilt in 199. The other said that the temple was built in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. When Yuntai Mountain chose to build the temple, it meant that it was in the center of four directions and belonged to a sect with Wanfa. The other said that the imperial court built a temple to manage the imperial style here, and the temple in the temple was called Shenzong Royal Endowment.
