Route: Moudao Town-Enshi Grand Canyon

Distance: 80 kilometers

June 65438+10/October 65438+June 2020.

It rained all night last night. Although the aristocratic residential area where RV camped seems to be an empty city, it may be that the watchdog in the residential area is very serious and responsible, and seems to be fighting the dark forces all night. I suspect it's for me, because I camped outside the gate, and I was an unexpected guest and an alien to them, so I didn't sleep well all night and really didn't want to get up in the morning! When I woke up, my guess was confirmed. It turned out that two stray dogs were lying on the bridge in front of the parking lot, staring at me. But after dawn, they feel very gentle. I wandered under the car and they didn't protest. I was thinking, if they come to be polite to me, I might take them wandering.

It's still raining, and I remembered the famous saying, "It's going to rain, mom is going to marry, let her go!" " I can only let my feelings go! I have to find a place with the sun!

When I left Moudao Town, I really did a lot of construction. Although it feels like an empty city, the construction of the building is really high-grade. I really want to know what it will be like here in the next ten or twenty years. What kind of people will live in these buildings? Living environment will cultivate people's sentiment. How many immortals will be born between this mountain and the cloud?

One day, I was on National Highway 3 18. I came out a little late and walked a little slowly on the road. I watched the scenery along the road with noisy music and the reminder of the speed limit of 30-50 kilometers. I have walked through many small villages, all of which are beautiful village level. I enjoyed the beautiful scenery all the way, but I was a little depressed and cold.

After Lichuan, drive into town for a while and have something to eat. Readers and friends on the Internet told me to have fun in Lichuan. I really don't know what's interesting. This is a "big city". I've been driving around in the RV for a long time, and I'm a little urban phobia.

All the way along the 3 18 national highway, we all turned around in the mountains. The mountains are not high, the valleys are not deep and there are not many cars, but the roads are not wide and there are many villages. The scenery is in the rain and fog, and it is no different from Chongqing, Sichuan. I was thinking that when I was walking on the road, China wouldn't be like this everywhere. I have been walking eastward for five days.

However, when we walked a few kilometers from the Grand Canyon and turned a mountain, we were stunned by the scenery in front of us! It's so beautiful, it seems that I just walked into Shambhala, and I was delayed here for another hour, and my mobile phone was delayed, so I just sat in the RV in a daze.

I only walked 80 kilometers a day, really only 80 kilometers! Arrive at Enshi Grand Canyon at 2 pm. I think I can visit the canyon in 2-3 hours. I happened to meet two RV riders. They told me it would take at least four hours. As soon as I look at the time, I will walk down the mountain at night. Let's talk tomorrow! I am very kind to meet caravan riders on the road. The two riders not only told me the tour time, but also told me their tour experience, that is, it is best not to buy a cable car ticket, because the cable car only walked less than a quarter of the way and missed several scenic spots. I have to buy a bus to sit in the back, and I can walk in the future, which can save 100 yuan. Lao Zhang must remember.

The autumn colors in Enshi are already very strong and the scenery is beautiful. The RV was parked in the parking lot of the Grand Canyon, full of buses, leaving me such a good seat. The scenery outside the window is like this.

Today is very leisurely, sitting in the RV reading, sorting out my two-month travel experience. Suddenly I found a different kind of light, which most people might not imagine. For those who haven't seen the sun for about 20 days, how surprising the sudden light will be. There was a sunshine between the clouds outside the window that lit up the book in front of me. I immediately jumped out of the car and set up a beach chair on the grass! It's a pity that the sun disappeared just a few minutes after it appeared! But I waited for another half hour! However, there are already clouds in the sky, and the feeling of vaguely seeing the blue sky has made me very happy. It may be sunny every day!

On a quiet night, there are only three RVs in the parking lot.

June 65438+1October 65438+July 2020

I slept well last night, but when I woke up in the morning, I heard the rain hitting the roof!

This is the most depressing thing. It doesn't matter if there is no sun, and it doesn't matter if it is cloudy or cloudy, but it shouldn't rain when I want to visit the Grand Canyon. I did ideological work for myself for half an hour in bed, and there was a fierce ideological struggle on whether to get up or go swimming in the Grand Canyon. Finally, I decided to get up and say something first. If you don't walk on the plank road in the canyon today, you have to sit at the steering wheel of Panshan Road. It seems that my RV trip is very hard because of the rain. I have been out for more than two months, from Hebei to Henan, from Qinghai to Tibet, and from Tibet to Sichuan to Hubei. I can't seem to remember how many nights it hasn't rained! Lao Zhang, I went to Tiangui Mountain and Wei Zi in the rain, boarded the King of Wu in the rain and visited the Hongqi Canal in the rain. Even if it didn't rain on a white day, I fell asleep in the rain at night. Visit Enshi Grand Canyon in the rain today, and let the rain come more violently!

I packed my things before I went to bed last night. I have a raincoat in my backpack and a golf umbrella, the biggest one.

Depart by car at 8: 30 in the morning, arrive at the scenic spot at 9: 00, and come to the walking entrance of Qixingzhai scenic spot in the rain. It was still raining when I entered the scenic spot. At first, there were not many tourists, and most of them took the cable car up the mountain.

Enshi Grand Canyon is 49 kilometers from Enshi City and 39 kilometers from Lichuan City. It has been rated as one of the top ten tourist business cards of national AAAAA tourist attractions, national geological parks and Lingxiu Hubei. Enshi Grand Canyon has opened two core scenic spots, Qixingzhai and Yunlong Ground Fissure, with a total area of 35.2 square kilometers. There are various geological landscapes such as sinkholes, ground fissures, cliffs, peaks, rock pillars, caves, underground rivers, etc., which are called "natural museums of karst topography".

However, when I started climbing the mountain, the rain stopped. There will be many clouds in the mountains today, which is more beautiful than the sun. This is a good sign!

Take a selfie for Lao Zhang, who is fully armed.

Because of the rainy weather this year, the flooded road in Yunlong ground fissure scenic area was closed for maintenance, and the opening to the outside world was suspended, so we could only go to Qixingzhai scenic area to play. Affected by the epidemic, all tourist attractions in Hubei Province are free of charge before the end of the year, which is a good opportunity to travel. If possible, don't miss such a good opportunity. For the tourist map of Qixingzhai, the red line is the route I walked on foot. It took people six hours, but it took me eight hours to walk the whole distance. Finally, I took the escalator down the mountain. Friends who have been to Enshi Grand Canyon must pay attention to this scenic spot. If you go up and down by cable car, you have hardly seen anything. All you have to do is take the tourist bus to the entrance of Qixingzhai pedestrian route and walk on your own. You can see all the scenic spots, but this row of mountains is enough for you to drink a few pots. People with poor physical strength just look below. It's been two months since I came out. Friends who read my travel notes should know that I climbed many mountains, averaging 2-3 a week, but I still felt very tired, so I walked for 8 hours! Let the photos speak for themselves, see what scenery I have traveled in these eight hours, and also look at my video travel notes.

The first stop of hiking is to dismount. Why is there a cable car? Because the hiking route is such a wall-hung plank road, the length and height can't be found online. It is not recommended to walk in the scenic spot now, because everyone took the plank road and the cable car was empty. I think this section is the most difficult to walk in Qixingzhai Scenic Area, and it is on a vertical mountain wall. Friends who are afraid of heights should think twice. Especially don't look down, because the shooting angle is not good, so the photos are all landscapes, so you can watch more videos.

The cable car can't see the scenery you can see on the wall plank road, because most people won't take this road, and the main attractions are behind.

After the rain, the clouds on the mountain rise very fast, which may all appear suddenly and can be photographed without delay.

Fairy Peak, an indomitable stone pillar, is hundreds of meters high and bony, with a pine tree on top and a majestic sea of clouds. It is said that immortals live on this mountain and often come down to help people, so it is named Andromeda Peak.

After the rain, mountain clouds come and go without a trace, the close-up of distant mountains has been changing, and there are water droplets floating in the air from time to time who don't know whether it is fog or rain.

Sit down and watch the clouds fall on the mountains and the fog come and go in Yun Qi. There is no sign between trees, a white cloud rises, and then silently covers you, feeling that you are possessed by fairy dust.

The white clouds in the distant mountains are like white waterfalls. At first, they were small streams, and then they gradually merged into a cloud wall.

Walking on the Nanshan platform is the end of the most difficult part of hiking, and the roads behind are basically ups and downs. There is Longmen Shi Lang scenic spot on the top of Xiaoloumen, and the mountain of Enshi Grand Canyon is mainly carbonate sedimentary rocks. After hundreds of millions of years of rain erosion and weathering, the stone head on the top of the mountain is like a wave, like a labyrinth of stone teeth, really like a maze.

This is a hanging coffin stone, which really looks like hanging coffins.

One day, there was a narrow gap between the two mountains, and almost all the mountains in Enshi Grand Canyon were wrapped in protective nets. This is indeed a huge project, but it is also a real destruction of the original natural landscape. Walking in such a landscape, I feel that the original wildness of nature has been deprived. In fact, sometimes people don't have to be so close to such a scenery. If we appreciate nature from a distance, we will be more awed by it.

Go straight along the plank road at the top of the mountain. Of course, it's not Ma Pingchuan, but you have to climb up and down to see more scenery. There are many forks in the plank road on the mountain, but you only need to remember to take the plank road closest to the outer edge to see the most beautiful scenery in the valley.

The valley is full of the most beautiful residential villas, homestays and families in fairyland. It's really beautiful.

Overlooking the gate of Qixingzhai Scenic Area, this kind of scenery will only be available after the rain. The sea of clouds is right under our feet, and the real scenery is like a mirage.

The plank roads of Panshan Mountain are all built on cliffs, overlooking every household in the valley, and the paths in the mountains string together the fairy's home.

The opposite mountain is like a stone wall, and the clouds between the rugged peaks are like waterfalls in the mountains. I saw them rising slowly from the bottom of the valley and meeting at the top of the mountain, forming a white curtain to cover the sky overhead. It's spectacular. The first time I saw the cloud waterfall!

The mountain scenery here is very similar to Zhangjiajie, with many strange peaks, different stone pillars and peaks, which are even more mysterious and dreamy in the fog.

The cliff corridor is completely on a 90-degree mountain, in the middle of the peak with an altitude of 1700 meters, with an absolute height difference of 300 meters. The plank road built in the air is about 500 meters long and twists and turns. Only we China dare to think!

The scenery is really beautiful, but I always feel that I have done something wrong. Has nature changed us or have we changed nature? Is this scenery natural or manufactured landscapes? Like a bonsai model. We designed nature and then made it into a super-large bonsai. It's really beautiful, but it's unnatural

I dare not think about hanging the plank road. I traveled in the United States and Canada for 460 days and walked through nearly 50 national parks. I don't seem to have seen anything similar, but those pure natural and primitive scenery really made me feel the beauty and magnificence of nature!

It has been more than two months since I went out this time. So far, I don't seem to see a completely natural scenic spot. There are more or less traces of artificial transformation, more or less, but it is really different from the scenery I saw more than ten years ago!

It's really shocking to face such scenery. What is shocking is that people are really awesome and built such a plank road.

The Grand Canyon area should be the bottom of the ocean in ancient times, so these two rocks are carbonate sedimentary rock structures, and you can clearly see that the texture formed by geology is superimposed layer by layer. Each floor may have been formed for thousands of years, which is simply a geological textbook!

Looking back at the cliff corridor and the upper part of the mountain, I brought a hat to the mountain! I am worried that this top hat will be blown off by wind and rain one day, even if it is only a corner, it may be a greater disaster than falling rocks! And this kind of thing is bound to happen!

Walking into the Echo Valley in Houshan, the scenery is good, and there is a suspended plank road. Writing here, I suddenly remembered my video travel notes. In the process of editing, I can only delete all the original sounds, because since I climbed the mountain and walked in this grand canyon, I can hear shouts at the mountain one after another at any time. It seems that people will be infected and will never stop. Everyone wants to show their high lung capacity! And the loud noise of people on the road is getting louder and louder. I feel that Hubei people are all loud voices, pure male and female tenors, all with the tone of eighteen bends in the mountain road. Walking into nature requires people's awe. It is suggested that there should be more warning signs in the scenic spots in the future. Please don't speak loudly, or you will scare away the gods in the sky. There may be man-made disasters such as landslides and avalanches.

This place is called Gu Xiangling, an imaginative name. I studied it carefully for a long time before I found a stone that looked like a baby elephant's nose.

This is a mushroom stone, which really looks like it.

Many rocks in Enshi Canyon are columnar rocks. It should be early autumn here now, maybe it will be the most beautiful time of the week.

I spent a day wandering in this row of mountains and looking at each mountain from different angles. In any case, this is the most beautiful scenery.

This place is called Damenlou Qunfeng, which are all independent stone peaks with indomitable spirit.

Welcome pine is also a famous landscape of the Grand Canyon. There is more than one person in line to take pictures. Men, women and children have to take photos through a red heart in online celebrities, and it is difficult to grab the camera.

Looking down is the most breathtaking picture of the Grand Canyon. There are many stone peaks in the abyss, and I always have a feeling of flying down because I am afraid of heights.

There are about 6-7 peaks before the end of the decline. In the first half of the climb, few people carried the pole, but after entering the heavy building, there were more poles on the top of the mountain. Many people can only choose pole dancing because their feet are not strong, especially in the middle, and they are in a dilemma. If you are in poor health or have heart disease, you should walk carefully. This mountain is really tired to walk.

The hardest part is the section to the top of the gatehouse, where there are the most bearers. Many people are directly carried to the escalator by the sliding column. If I don't climb the mountain for two months, I will be carried down.

A wick of incense is the treasure of the Grand Canyon. The height is about150m, and the minimum diameter is only 4m. The compressive strength of rocks here is 800 kilograms per cubic centimeter. The wind can't blow down, and the rain can't beat down. It has stood proudly among the peaks for thousands of years, guarding this mysterious land. It's amazing!

Mountains and rivers are the last scenic spot to visit. The name is very good and appropriate, and it is a masterpiece of nature calligraphy.

A small stone on the roadside at the top of the mountain is such a beautiful sight, which is the epitome of the mountain I walked for 8 hours today.

Going up the mountain is easier than going down, and going down the mountain hurts my knees the most. After more than 7 hours, I felt that my legs belonged to others and I didn't listen to my own orders. It is a wise choice to take the escalator down the mountain from halfway up the mountain. This corridor on the mountainside is the corridor of the escalator. 30 yuan is really not expensive. This is the longest escalator I have ever taken. It seems that I took more than 20 minutes and changed elevators several times.

I spent a whole day wandering from 8: 30 in the morning to 4: 30 in the afternoon, which was my day from the far left to the far right of the mountain in the photo. Give me another choice. I really won't go again! Fortunately, after I arrived yesterday afternoon, when I hung my back neatly and prepared to climb the mountain, I was embarrassed to ask my RV rider how long it would take to climb the mountain. At that time, they told me that I had walked for six hours, and I thought four hours was enough for me. It was almost 2 o'clock at that time, and it was going to be dark in four hours, so I didn't set off and went climbing this morning instead. If I had climbed the mountain yesterday afternoon, I wouldn't have been able to get down at night!

I only visited the mountainous part of Enshi Grand Canyon in one day, and the canyon part was not open. I don't know what the scenery is like. I will definitely visit the canyon again when I have time. Daqingzhai Scenic Area is really worth seeing, especially now, tickets are free, and it is enough not to take the cable car to 60 yuan. Before the end of 65438+February this year, it is a once-in-a-century opportunity, and friends with conditions can go and see it.

Back in the RV, I decided to continue camping here for one night. Today's legs and feet are not mine, so I have no strength to step on the accelerator and brake on the road. I must take a hot bath in the car, soak my feet, have a good sleep and start again every day!

I am the only one camping in the parking lot tonight, and the whole scenic spot is empty!

It began to rain again at night,,,,
