1. Bonan Ancient Road

First introduce a word, the Southwest Silk Road, a trade route for foreign trade in ancient times, starting from Sichuan, passing through Yunnan, and finally reaching India . Bonan Ancient Trail is one of them. The ancient road crosses the Lancang River, and on the other side are Bonan Mountain and Luomin Mountain. This Silk Road, the Northwest Silk Road, is 200 years older than the "Southern Silk Road", and China mainly has three Silk Roads, the Northwest Silk Road, the Southern Maritime Silk Road, and the Southwest Silk Road. Silk Road. Bonan Ancient Trail is a witness to this history. The oldest iron cable bridge, Jihong Bridge, and the Bonan Ancient Road are also found here, with a total length of more than 100 kilometers. Temples, monuments, and horseshoe footprints along the way all tell this period of history. The main scenic spots include Dong Mosque, Huaqiao Ancient Post, Bonan Mountain Stele, Fengming Bridge, Yongguo Temple Ruins, Wansong Nunnery, Yuhuang Pavilion, and cliff carvings on the banks of the Lancang River.

1. Bonan Ancient Road Tour Route Map:

The Southwest Silk Road starts from Sichuan and takes the Wuequatoro and Lingguan Road respectively. The final meeting point is Dali. Let's go and pass through Yangbi County and arrive at Bonan Mountain.

Bonan is an ancient name. It is now called Yongping County, and the county-level government is now Baoshan. On this road, you can still see the deep horse hoof prints left by the long history of the river, the bluestone of the ancient road, the passage through the forest, and the wading across the river. Even the old people can still tell the stories passed down by the old people, about the groups of business travelers and the loads of goods on horseback. The flow of people coming and going, as well as the inns still remaining in the mountainous areas, show how frequent trade exchanges were at that time.
