Guangxi, a small town, has purer mountains and waters than Guilin and more delicious food than Chengdu. It is a good place for the elderly.

Hidden deep in 90 thousand mountains in northern Guangxi,

From Liuzhou in the east to Libo in the north,

Sandwiched between two popular tourist destinations,

But it rarely appears on the list of the People's Tourism Administration.

Even on legal holidays, there are not many people.

Speaking of Guangxi,

Few people would have thought of it.

But it seems unknown,

But it challenges the scenery of Guilin.

Don't lose the sinkhole group,

Compared with the karst forest in Maolan, Libo,

Magnificent as Jinsha River and Nujiang River,

This is the hometown of longevity recognized by China and the world.

There are more than 90 centenarians.

The scenery here is beautiful and the air is fresh.

It attracts many old people to live here.

It's Bama in Hechi, Guangxi.

The hometown of longevity in the world, the holy land of Ren Rui, China,

Karst kingdom, the hometown of Zhuang singer Liu Sanjie.

This small mountain and water town suitable for providing for the aged,

It's time for the whole country to know.

Bama Yao Autonomous County, known as "the hometown of longevity in the world and the holy land of China", belongs to the people of China and Hechi City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, and is located in the northwest of Guangxi. The total area of the county is 197 1 km2, and there are Yao, Zhuang and Han nationalities 12. Bama is high in the northwest and low in the southeast, with fewer mountains and more land. Known as "eight mountains, one water and one field", land is very precious.

The elderly over 100 years old in Bama account for 3.08% of the county's population, ranking first in the country and in the forefront of the world. It is the fifth longevity town after Caucasus of the former Soviet Union, Hanseatic of Pakistan, Birkaban of Ecuador and southern Xinjiang of China. In Zhuang Village Yao Village here, you can often see many centenarian brothers, centenarian sisters and centenarian couples. Bama has become a famous "longevity area" at home and abroad.

Why do people here live longer? According to the repeated investigation and research of Chinese and foreign experts and scholars for more than 30 years, as well as scientific testing, it is considered that it is related to environment, diet, labor, customs and social factors, and is inseparable from the words "heaven, earth, mountains, water and people".

sky

The sunshine is abundant, the climate is pleasant, the annual average temperature is 20.4℃, and the summer rainfall is abundant, which is beneficial to crop growth, warm in the day and cool in the night, and beneficial to sleep and rest. In addition, there are as many as 20,000 negative oxygen ions in the air per cubic centimeter (which can purify the air), which is 10 to dozens of times higher than that of urban streets. In such weather, man-machine naturally keeps a good running state for a long time.

land

The soil in this area contains many elements such as manganese, zinc, selenium, nickel, chromium, copper and cadmium. , and the content of manganese and zinc is high, and the content of copper and cadmium is low, so it is a good soil for planting in longevity food. The distribution of this kind of soil is directly proportional to the distribution density of the long-lived elderly and inversely proportional to the distribution of cardiovascular incidence. According to laboratory tests, the manganese content in the hair of the long-lived elderly here is 10 times higher than that of people in Guangzhou and Tokyo.

hill

Panyang River is a mountainous area, generally 400-600 meters above sea level. There are valleys and farms in the mountains, some of which are rocky mountains or semi-rocky mountains in the middle temperate zone. Many long-lived old people live in such mountainous areas. Because these mountainous areas are generally remote, closed or semi-closed, there is no noise and pollution, and there are few infectious diseases and primary diseases; In addition, people who live and work in the mountains all their lives have a lot of exercise, increased vital capacity, more fresh air intake, physical exercise and enhanced disease resistance, which naturally contributes to health and longevity. Therefore, this karst peak cluster is called "longevity landform".

water

The water source here also contains a variety of trace elements beneficial to the human body. Many tested water sources are high-grade and high-quality mineral water. Selenium and silicon contained in it are rare in other mineral water. The spring in Bokaitun, the famous hometown of longevity, contains 12 kinds of trace elements beneficial to human body. Min 'an mineral water, which is called "divine water" by the Wall Street Journal, is located in the southeast of Bama12km, and contains 24 trace elements needed by human body. There is also the mineral water flowing down from the mountainside of Cifu Lake. Besides strontium and metasilicic acid in high-quality mineral water, it also contains bromine, iodine, zinc, lithium, selenium and other 10 trace elements beneficial to human body, which is the first discovery in Guangxi.

Many springs gushed out various nutritional essences from underground and flowed into Panyang River, feeding generations of long-lived old people. Therefore, Panyang River has become a "longevity river".

mankind

Refers to human factors, including diet, customs, mental outlook, etc. Zhuang Yao people in Panyanghe often eat corn porridge. There is a lot of corn cellulose here, and the content of protein is higher than that of ordinary rice, which also has anti-cancer effect. Among them, the famous pearl yellow corn, vitamin B 1, vitamin E and carotene are higher than those in other regions. Corn porridge has become a "longevity porridge" with rich nutrition and easy digestion, which can reduce gastrointestinal diseases.

Their edible oil is mainly sesame oil, which has the highest unsaturated fat content in common vegetable oils, and has the function of moistening intestines and replenishing overflow. It can cure constipation of the elderly and lower blood pressure and cholesterol, so it is called "longevity oil". People there have always had a light diet, and local amaranth, bamboo shoots, beans and potatoes are all anti-aging foods often eaten by long-lived elderly people.

In addition, people here work all their lives, go to bed early and get up early, are diligent and contented, optimistic and generous, have a sense of security and are ready to help others. At the same time, they have traditional festivals and customs to adjust their lives, so they naturally form a "carefree" living space.

Bainiaoyandong

Lietun is located two kilometers northwest of Jiazhuan Township in Bama, 20 kilometers away from the highway 1 km and the county seat. It is the last undercurrent outlet of Pan Yang flowing through karst landform area. The cave is tall and dry with a mild climate, and birds such as swallow, eagle, kingfisher and bat inhabit it. Every morning and evening, groups of rock swallows fly around the hole, which is very spectacular, hence the name Hundred Birds Cave.

After leaving the mouth of the cave, the Panyang River is connected with a small hydropower station reservoir not far downstream, forming a small lake with a length of about 2000 meters and a width of about 80 meters. The hole about 80 meters wide is divided into two parts by upside-down stalactites, and the inner sides of the two holes are connected. The water surface in the cave is about 6,543,800 square meters, and you can enter the cave by boat from the mouth of the cave. The tunnel is about 40 meters wide and 654.38+00 meters narrow, and it twists and turns all the way, connecting with Baixiong Cave in the upper reaches.

There are more than 30 square meters of stone platforms on the right side of the beach, with potholes on the table. On one side of the platform is a snow-white cave wall with stone eagle, stone curtain and stone Guanyin. There are many kinds of milk stones on the cave wall opposite the platform, and the top stone is upside down. Rock springs are trembling, bats are flying in fear. Under the Toona sinensis forest outside the side hole, wild flowers are dazzling and the vegetation is dense.

Jiazhuan village

Jiazhuan Village is located in the northwest of Bama Yao Autonomous County 19 km, passing through Bama-Fengshan Highway, and is the resident of Jiazhuan Township Government. There are many long-lived elderly people here, and other famous long-lived Palestinian villages, Pantun, Baima Village, Pingan Village and Lahengtun, are all nearby.
