The scenic beauty that time cannot hide—A trip to the Nizhu River Grand Canyon

I admit that I am a lazy person, and this has been proven by more than one fact, including going to the Nizhu River Grand Canyon, where I have been pushed and pushed into a trance for several years. As I gained weight, I was always worried about the difficulty of the Nizhu River Grand Canyon. I was worried that I would not be able to make it down and would drag others down, so I never made the trip. I have been to many places all over the world, but I have not yet set foot on the scenery of my hometown. It is really shameful to think about it! This summer, I finally mustered up the courage to go to this paradise hidden in the mountains for a walk and take a look.

The car winds its way through the villages of Puli Township, with green trees and grass all the way. The air is filled with the fragrance of flowers and earth, mixed with the natural fragrance of corn and potatoes in the fields, which lingers for a long time. My lungs, polluted by car exhaust and tobacco, felt like I had taken a cold shower from beginning to end. I felt so comfortable that I wanted to hum. No wonder the little pigs on the roadside were having a great time shaking their heads and playing with their ears. This air, this It would be strange not to be intoxicated by the flowers and plants! Unknowingly, I accidentally walked the wrong way. When I suddenly realized that I had reached the side of the highway, I turned back in time and didn't make a big mistake. It can be seen that there is a way back in life. It doesn't matter if you make a mistake, as long as you don't go too far. Far.

After arriving at the viewing platform above Guanzhai Valley, we can’t wait to go down the mountain road. The mountain road is bumpy, many places are carved with the help of natural rocks, and dangerous places are blocked by iron cables. The branches and vines between the cliffs are tangled, making it difficult for apes and monkeys to cross, and the yellow birds cannot fly. However, the dangers of the Shu road are described by Li Bai: "The difficulty of the Shu road is as difficult as climbing to the blue sky, which makes people wither their beauty! Even if the peaks are removed, the sky will not be full. Chi, withered pines hanging upside down on the cliffs, rushing waterfalls and thunderous cliffs, the cliffs are so dangerous that people who have traveled a long way are afraid of this. Disaster. The mountain road in Guanzhai Valley is steep and steep, with few buffers. The calf muscles were tested first, and initially they were fine. I disagreed with Old Man Huang’s lament that it was difficult to go down the mountain. I felt that I was as light as a swallow, and it was useless to go down the stone steps. However, the fat body, which was weak and lacked exercise, could not withstand the mountain road that had no buffer. The calf was sore, trembling and panicked, and almost fell down. The weather was hot and muggy, my clothes were soaked, and the sweat on my head was dripping down. The sound of hitting the stone slabs was clear and melodious, echoing the roar of springs and waterfalls in the ravine.

Arrived at the edge of the ditch, the mountain spring gurgled, and the water fell out, like a couple entangled for thousands of years. You have your tenacity, and I have my persistence. The water flow is gentle and quiet where it is silent, and beads and jade are flying where it roars. It is strange. Shi Wuyan accepted everything about the water with a silent mind. The mountain walls are steep, the bushes are thick, and the sky is lined with flying clouds. As I meandered down the plank road, sometimes jumping over potholes and rocks, my eyes were blurred by sweat, and I couldn't wipe them with paper towels. I had to pull up my clothes on my chest to wipe them, and then I could vaguely see the road ahead. My calves were trembling, and I really wanted to sit down on the steps and stay still until the end of time, silently encouraging myself, and rest by the Nizhu River. Walking forward in silence, I saw the cliffs on both sides of the ditch facing each other, the Tianmen opened, and a house appeared at the mouth of the ditch. Sitting on the stone slab, I breathed out countless sighs.

It was the rainy season, and the water in Nizhu River was turbulent and yellow. Nizhu River is a crossable section of the river, and the upper reaches is my hometown. After the Nizhu River and Gexiang River merged, it was first called Beipanjiang River. The flow of Nizhu River in this section is relatively gentle. We followed the river embankment road to Nizhu River Village. This small village hidden in the mountains has had inconvenient transportation for many years. In the past few years, it has been climbing up the cliffs and has had little contact with the world. After the development of the Nizhu River Canyon, several previously steep cliffs were repaired and reinforced with iron cables. The conditions for building a plank road are much better than before. On the other side of the village is Guizhou Province, which is connected by simple roads, but there are many detours.

We arrived at No. 1 Nizhuhe Village. This is a small farmhouse. The owner is a simple middle-aged farmer. He used his small courtyard to open an inn and provide catering. Our lunch was at his house. Enjoyed some authentic farm dishes. After lunch, we rested under the big banyan tree in the small courtyard. This big banyan tree has a history of more than a thousand years. It is so tall and strong that eight people can hug it. It is thick and tall, and its shade covers dozens of square meters. It is the sacred tree of Nizhuhe Village and has protected the villagers for generations.

Then move to the Nizhu River Hydropower Station next to the village. Downstream of the power station is the beautiful "Shili Gallery". There are many strange rocks in the river. On the river bank, there is the "Male and Female Waterfall" with the largest drop in Asia. The drop is more than 500 meters. The river water has surged recently. I dare not go down to the river to check it out. It is far away. The matter of viewing Takahashi, the best in the world, can only be given up. Nothing in the world is perfect, and regrets are the truth of life. Just like the beauty you fall in love with, it is impossible for you to fully understand it the first time. Thinking of this, you can return to Nizhuhe No. 1 with peace of mind. A group of fifty people came to the small courtyard on foot. The courtyard was filled with laughter and laughter. People who happened to know each other chatted with each other for a while. They booked two "unreturnable sheep". The mutton was cooked in a big boiling pot, and the aroma wafted through the small mountain village. They sincerely invited us *** to have dinner and stay overnight before leaving at dawn. I really wanted to stay, but my companions were worried that it would be unsafe to park the car in the mountains, so they encouraged me to walk back. I could only grit my teeth and endure the pain in my feet to go back with everyone.

Just after leaving the village entrance on the return trip, the situation suddenly changed and it began to rain heavily. I hurriedly took out my umbrella, but my lower body and shoes were still wet. Those who did not bring an umbrella quickly ran to the banana tree to take shelter from the rain. Fortunately, we only stayed down for about 20 minutes and continued our mountain climbing trip.

The road up the mountain consumes more energy, but fortunately, it is accompanied by beautiful scenery along the way, which is very consistent with a few lines from Li Bai's poem "Dreamwalking Tianmu Yin Liu Farewell": "Wearing Xie Gong's clogs, the body is climbing the Qingyun Ladder. Half of the wall See the sun on the sea and smell chickens in the air.

Thousands of rocks have many twists and turns, and the path is uncertain. The lost flowers leaning against the rocks are suddenly dim. Bears roar and dragons sing in Yinyan Spring, and chestnut trees in deep forests are shocking to the top of the mountain. The clouds are green as if it is raining, and the water is sluggish with smoke. There was a thunderbolt when the columns were missing, and the hills collapsed. The stone door of the cave opens suddenly. "It took nearly two hours to climb to the parking lot out of breath. Nizhu River Canyon is very suitable for outdoor sports such as hiking, rock climbing, and cliff jumping. As long as you come here once, whether it is the scenery or the fatigue of walking, it will always touch your heartstrings. .

A village elder sister set up a pavilion at the intersection. The roasted potatoes were delicious and the dipping sauces were various and tempting. She was so thirsty that she immediately drank two glasses of papaya water and a bottle of mineral water. The feeling of being cold to the bottom of my heart was so refreshing. After eating two fragrant potatoes, my fatigue disappeared. The eldest sister smiled at my embarrassment and said, "You have gained a little weight. From now on, come to our place to climb the mountain once a day. I promise you." I’ll lose weight in a month.” I rubbed my sore old legs and agreed, “I want it, but I don’t have time. "I sighed in my heart, my physical strength is still too poor, I need to exercise more in the future.

I didn't see any macaques even when I went up and down the mountain. There is a group of about 300 Yunnan macaques in Nizhu River, which are protected wild animals. I Asked the eldest sister: "Why can't you see the macaque?" "

The eldest sister said: "Monkeys will not come to the cliff during this period. They are stealing crops near the village. The government has forbidden us to hunt. The government will compensate the monkeys for stealing crops. ”

After taking a short rest, in the twilight, we drove out of the Nizhu River Grand Canyon, a scenic spot that cannot be hidden by the years. This Taoyuan resort on the border of Yunnan and Guizhou was previously hidden in the mountains and unknown to people. With the completion of the cableway, glass plank road and cliff hotel under construction, she will show her charming style to the world.
