What are the scenic spots in Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon?

Route guide:

Between the canyons of Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon is a quiet stream, along which is a swimming track built with wooden boards; The last section of the canyon is a small reservoir built by a power station downstream. You need to go out by boat. Sitting on the boat, you can see wild ducks splashing in the water, and you can also see egrets skimming over the water from time to time ... Inadvertently, the canyon has been finished, and the exit was originally under the road where you entered. It takes more than two hours to visit the Grand Canyon, which is narrow and takes a long walk. You need good physical strength. Waterfalls and divine springs abound in the Grand Canyon. It's dizzy to visit all the way. The vegetation in the canyon is lush, the air is fresh, cool and comfortable, and the stream is filled with a layer of mist, which seems to make people feel worried. There are not only beautiful natural scenery in the canyon, but also historical and cultural landscapes of three dynasties, such as the ancient battlefield of "Thousand Graves" which recorded the tragic decisive battle between Wu Sangui and Li Zicheng, the bandit cave which reflected the historical characteristics of Xiangxi, and witnessed the "South Red Flag Canal" dug by Xiangxi people between cliffs in the early days of the founding of New China.

If you want to say the stunning scenery of the Grand Canyon, it must be a scene. The scene of heaven, also known as the West Gate, is like a gate opened by Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon. However, although this gate is very big and high, it is very narrow, just like a sword cut by the gods on a rock peak, leaving a narrow rock crack. Visitors can touch the cliff at zero distance and feel the wonder of nature during the journey. "Three thousand emerald peaks, eight hundred glazed water" is a compliment to Zhangjiajie's strange mountains and waters. However, when visiting other scenic spots in Zhangjiajie, most of them can only overlook or overlook the strange mountains and strange waters in Zhangjiajie from a distance. Only here can you experience the feeling of zero-distance contact with nature, from the top of the sky to the bottom of the canyon, the cliff plank road of 700 meters, the vertical drop of 300 meters, and the level of 1680.

The second scenic spot of the Grand Canyon-South Hongqi Canal. The width is about 1 m, the water depth is about 1 m, and the water flow speed is 0.5 cubic meters per second. This is the South Red Flag Canal. It comes from the spring water of Shenquanxi, winding on the cliff, with a total length of 10 kilometers, but it is an artificial miracle created by the people of Sanguan Temple, which embodies the sweat and wisdom of the people of Sanguan Temple. The South Hongqi Canal was originally named Xikouyu Water Control Project, which started on 1964 and took seven years to build, and was completed on 197 1. Today, the township government, primary and secondary schools, shops and residents in Sanguansi Township still use this as their drinking water source.

There is a wooden bridge called "bon voyage" in the scenic spot. The railing of the wooden bridge is made of bamboo poles, so it is also called bamboo bridge. Standing on the bamboo bridge. You can not only listen to the roaring streams under the bridge, but also enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Grand Canyon. This is another scenic spot worth taking pictures of. Here, visitors can think about two of the five unsolved mysteries of the Grand Canyon.

Along the top of the stream, that is, in the direction of Shen Xiquan, the source of the stream, the altitude of Shen Xiquan is over 400 meters, and all the rivers that have never been used by wooden boats are 30 miles away. The elevation of their river is below150m, which is more than 200m lower than the outlet of Shen Xiquan. There is no reservoir or even a small pond in the upper reaches of Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon, which means there is no reservoir at all. This is the first of the five unsolved mysteries of Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon.

What's even more amazing is that no matter whether it rains or droughts, there are a lot of spring water flowing out of the outlet of Shenxiquan. When the water volume is minimum, the water flow is 0.5 cubic meters per second, and when the water volume is maximum, it reaches 10 cubic meters per second. According to the climatic conditions here, it is scientifically calculated that such a large flow can only be formed if the accumulated water area reaches 200 square kilometers, but in fact, the accumulated water area of Shen Xiquan does not exceed 20 square kilometers. Where did such a large amount of water come from? This is the second of the five unsolved mysteries of Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon.

The third mystery occurred at 5 pm on May 12, 2008, that is, two hours after the Wenchuan earthquake, the spring flow of Shenxiquan suddenly increased, more than doubling that of that morning, and a large amount of mud gushed out from the outlet. After this phenomenon was discovered by the local people, everyone exclaimed, "God is lost, God is lost." The mystery of Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon has become more and more important in people's minds since then.

The fourth mystery comes from the cliff scenic spot. When you come here, you will be surprised to find that there is a natural barrel-shaped cliff, which is neither artificially carved nor washed by waterfalls. At the same time, the whole cliff has always been long grass rather than long trees. What the hell is going on here? Even geologists and botanists can't give an accurate explanation.

The last mystery comes from the strange cave, and it's strange just to listen to the name. On the right side of the entrance, the locals said that there was a small hole, but it was really big inside. At that time, ordinary people found the hole after being injured in the expedition. They entered the hole, and more than one person had entered it. Many ordinary people got lost in it. But now, the scenic spot has sent people to explore many times, but the hole can't be found anymore.

In addition to natural scenery, the Grand Canyon has two very special man-made landscapes, one is the Nokley Slide, and the other is the highest glass bridge in the world. On March 17, 2009, the first Nokley slide in Hunan Province was officially put into operation in Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Scenic Area. Its existence makes the journey from the first sight to the bottom of the Grand Canyon no longer boring, and visitors can easily and comfortably sneak all the way along the swimming lane to the Hongqi Canal. The slide is divided into two sections, about 600 meters. The inner groove is 45 cm deep and 50 cm wide. Skating for 3 ~ 5 minutes saves 20 minutes compared with usual hiking. It is the best choice for tourists to visit Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon to save time and effort.

There is also the tallest and longest glass bridge in the world, which is built on the peaks on both sides of the Grand Canyon and spans the Grand Canyon. The arch of the bridge is 400 meters away from the bottom of the valley, with a total length of 370 meters. The bridge deck is all covered with transparent glass, and there is the highest bungee jumping in the world in the center of the bridge. Standing on the bridge, you can see the panoramic view of the valley bottom at 400 places under the bridge.
