Lupiguan Great Wall Weather

It is no exaggeration to say that in the suburbs of Beijing, Liu Xin Road is one of the most charming suspended highways in go on road trip.

There is only one criterion for me to evaluate whether a tourist destination is beautiful enough, and that is whether it will be unforgettable after I have been there.

Liu Xin Road is certainly in line with expectations, because no matter whether it is spring, summer, autumn and winter, rain or shine, whether it is early morning, noon or dusk, whether you are east, west or east, as long as you can see it, you can enjoy the scenery. It's definitely not enough to go to such a beautiful highway only once. How can you not share such a beautiful travel destination with your friends? If you don't share, you are sorry for the beauty here.

The entrance to the west end of Liu Xin Road is more than 80 kilometers away from Beijing. Starting from the urban area, go south along Jingcheng Expressway, go to Huairou, turn to Jingmi Expressway, and then turn to Jingjia Road. From the moment you saw the winding Great Wall at the top of the mountain, Yanshan welcomed you with a beautiful gesture. Go south, cross the watershed tunnel that runs through Yunmeng Mountain, and walk a short distance to Liu Xin Road.

The watershed tunnel is about 3,500 meters long, which is the second longest highway tunnel in Beijing at present, second only to the Tanyugou tunnel in the direction of Badaling Expressway entering Beijing. If the rain and snow weather passes through here, it may be mixed with rain and fog before entering the tunnel, and it will be sunny after leaving the tunnel. The towering Yunmeng Mountain changed the microclimate. If you are not in a hurry, you can also take Laojingjia Road, which is the winding Panshan Highway on Yunmeng Mountain above, and the scenery is also excellent.

The steep road on Liu Xin Road.

Liu Xin Road starts from Liulimiao Town, Huairou District, and meets Kyoka Road at the intersection of Bachazi Road. After that, it climbed all the way, winding eastward along the mountain wall of the White Valley. On the right side of the road is Yunmeng Mountain, which stands on the Wan Ren, and on the other side is the bottomless Baizhang cliff. The road is narrow and tortuous, so don't be distracted.

If it is windy and rainy, unstable stones on the mountain may fall at any time, blocking traffic, damaging roads and threatening the safety of passing vehicles and pedestrians. Therefore, in the rainy season, it is also common that Lu Xin Road is closed due to falling rocks, landslides and landslides. Road workers are checking mountains every day, climbing dozens of cliffs and installing protective nets to eliminate potential safety hazards in time. Year after year, although the mountains are picturesque, they have no time to enjoy them.

The workers climbed up the rock to check for hidden dangers.

The mountain structure of Yunmeng Mountain is dominated by granite, and the gneiss-like structure at the edge is gneiss formed due to the ductile deformation of rock mass and the accompanying amphibole retrogression, as well as the mylonitization zone around the rock foundation, which looks like layered sedimentary rocks from a distance. Hundreds of millions of years of complex geological movements and wind and rain erosion make it present a variety of landscapes. Throughout the year, from morning till night, the scenery is different. This is also an expressway.

The Baihe River in the valley originated in Guyuan County, Hebei Province, and flowed into Miyun Reservoir. The river is sandy and white, hence the name Baihe; The river is fierce and the migration is impermanent, commonly known as the Freedom River. This turbulent river reshaped the landscape. The magic of nature is always amazing. The hardest stone tried to stop the softest water, but it was split into canyons. Water is soft, but soft has bones. No one can stop it from running to the sea. Hard granite is overreached, and the result is that it is cut into pieces, the valley is getting deeper and deeper, and the rock is eroded and cut more and more steeply.

The essence of Liu Xin Road is between Yunmeng Wonderland Scenic Area and Lupiguan, which is about 26 kilometers long. After passing Lupiguan, the surface of Baihe River is getting wider and wider, becoming a part of Miyun Reservoir.

A well-known punch-in point on Liu Xin Road is Wangjing Terrace, which is not only the administrative demarcation point between Huairou and Miyun, but also one of the best observation points overlooking Baihe Canyon. Here, the Baihe River has turned several big bends in succession, which looks like Artest from the air. Looking around, the valley is deep and the still water is long and spectacular.

If you go down to the bottom of the valley and look back at the roads in the mountains, you can feel how dangerous the place you just passed is, and you should understand the importance of driving carefully. If there is an accident here, it will be beyond redemption.

For photographers, it is a breeze to shoot various styles of scenery movies on this road. It is often said that the infinite scenery is at the dangerous peak, and every section of this road is breathtaking. At five or six o'clock in the afternoon, the golden sunshine sprinkled on the bare boulder, turning the dry mountain into a golden mountain; At sunset, if there is a sunset glow, you will see the glow and steamed clouds. If it rains, it is cloudy and foggy, hazy and mysterious. There are hundreds of flowers in spring, red leaves in autumn, green mountains in summer and snow in Wan Li in winter. It can be said that there is no season that is not a good season.
