There are lush small trees, small flowers, tree-lined boulevards supported by towering trees, mountains that sometimes appear in the distance, the water is intoxicating, and there are many kinds of B & Bs and restaurants. Occasionally, local villagers hawking mountain products, self-grown fruits and vegetables, free-range eggs, yellow, white and green big-horn melons...

After passing through Shidu, you can see the guide signs of the Donghu Port Scenic Area. A one-time charge of entering the parking lot of the scenic area is ten yuan. If the ticket is slightly higher, you can buy a set ticket for comparison. To enter the scenic spot, you must first pass through the Youyou Iron Chain Bridge. The more people there are, the more powerful the swinging. There is a shuttle bus waiting after the Youyou Bridge. You can take it to the place where the cable car is built for 10 yuan. If you walk for about 20 minutes, you can appreciate the beautiful scenery of nature. There are a dreamy welcome stone, small water gurgling, and in front of you are multiple creeks that merge into a stream from top to bottom. It is beautiful.

The small waterwheel kept turning, as if it would never know how tired it was. There are stone piers beside the stream to cool down. Looking from a distance, one by one in the stream is like lotus leaves floating on the water. Looking closer, it turns out to be stone piers like small millstones, which gives people the urge to walk and jump. There are large stone piers by the stream. Sit for a while and watch the rolling mountains turning golden in the sun. It is intoxicating. The cableway cars not far away keep going up and down, and the drifting waterway carries tourists downstream. The sound of water rushing reminds people of childhood. There is no sun exposure here, nor does it feel cold and comfortable.

Sitting on the cable car, you can see the dense trees and unknown shrubs outside the window, and the flowing water of the mountain spring, as the cable car rises.

The mountains in the distance are in the sun. They are green, black, and white. When I get off the cable car, I look around and see the boardwalk inlaid on the cliff, more than a meter wide meter-wide meandering towards the top of the mountain like an auspicious dragon, as if it would never be there. At the end, when I came to the first sightseeing platform, I saw the beautiful scenery.

After asking the salesperson selling cold drinks, I learned that it was more than 550 meters above sea level below the foot of the mountain, and it was vertically upward. After walking along the plank road for more than 20 minutes, I reached the last observation deck at the top of the mountain. It was really an infinite scenery on the dangerous peak. Looking at the mountains of Kashgar, it seemed to be carved by heaven, with green trees on one side and golden trees on the other. The rocks are sometimes white and sometimes yellow under the sunshine. The sharp tops of some mountains are lined up neatly like nests in a steamer, which is beautiful.

People can only see the beautiful scenery after passing through dangerous, steep and difficult mountains to reach the top of the mountain, open their hearts and forget their troubles.

Continue along the plank road.

When I saw a glass plank road, I didn't dare to walk, so I could only walk on a relatively flat plank road.

Through the swaying seven-colored iron chain bridge built on the top of the mountain between the two mountains, we arrived at the sightseeing station to prepare to go down the mountain.

We got on the sightseeing bus and watched the distant mountains gradually disappear. What came into view was the dense forest. Soon the sightseeing bus took us halfway up the mountain.

When I started walking down the mountain, people said that it was easier to go up the mountain but difficult to go down the mountain. Now I can taste it. Look down the mountain 400 meters deep, go straight up and down, and follow the plank road on the cliff. There is another fun. It doesn't take long to walk to a spring. By the side of the spring, the gushing mountain spring water flows down from the mountain, giving the feeling of a secluded valley and a divine pool. After a short rest, I can see that the sky has reached dusk. On the way down the mountain, there are still several mountain spring water flowing down to form a stream, forming a small waterfall along the mountain crevices.

It is a good place to take photos. Not far away, a large pool comes into view. The waterfall formed by flowing water is not high, but it is very warm and intoxicating. Next to it is a pavilion for leisure. Young people in twos and threes are playing in the water and chatting happily under the pavilion.

When I arrived in the parking lot, I still kept looking back at the beautiful Donghu Port. It is really a resort harbor in Beijing and a good place with unlimited scenery and challenges. I will definitely come again next time.
