Some people say that not having been to Wulong is equivalent to not having been to Chongqing. As the "backyard" of Chongqing, Wulong has always been known as a fairyland on earth and a paradise for heroes. In December 2006, director Zhang Yimou's "Curse of the Golden Armor" officially entered people's sight. Wulong's Tiansheng Sanqiao was the only outdoor filming location in the film, and the broadcast of "Transformers 4" once again sparked a tourism craze in Wulong. So, how can we deeply explore Wulong? Now, the check-in secret has arrived, taking you to explore the "treasure" of Wulong together.
Wulong is located in the lower reaches of the Wujiang River, about 200 kilometers away from Chongqing. It belongs to a typical karst landform, and the exquisite craftsmanship of nature is fully reflected here. Within the jurisdiction of Wulong, there are several famous tourist attractions such as Xiannv Mountain National Forest Park, Tiansheng Sanqiao, Furong Cave, Furong River, and Tianchi Miao Village. It also covers cultural scenery and historical sites, and preserves the best traditional ethnic residential buildings. It is a popular destination for local indigenous people and domestic and foreign tourists alike.

Day 3: Tianchi Miao Village
The first page of this trip is Yangjiao Ancient Town. Yangjiao Ancient Town is a combination of special food and cultural history. Wanwan mutton, Yangjiao dried tofu, and hand-made potato flour are the three must see delicacies. Wanwan mutton is fragrant but not greasy. Yangjiao dried tofu is rich in taste and hand-made potato flour is fine and soft. Yangjiao Ancient Town has a long history. During the fifty years of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty, a large amount of rubble and mud flow piled up along the river to form a moraine shaped like a sheep's horn, so it was named Yangjiao moraine. Later, due to frequent cargo ship business contacts, it gradually formed a market town, so Yangjiao Town became a famous town. At the same time, the song of "Chuanjiang Chant" was also particularly loud, ringing through the whole valley.
Shuli Pingxiang Garden Restaurant is located by the river in Yangjiao Ancient Town. It has the widest viewing platform where you can enjoy tea and the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers. Dining here at noon can make your body and mind more pleasant.
When you come to Wulong, you must see the Tiansheng Sanqiao. Tiansheng Sanqiao is the world's largest and highest bead style Tiansheng Bridge group. Under the carving of nature, this place has a unique style, with both the sci-fi style from Transformers 4 and the martial arts style from Curse of the Golden Flower.
This time, the misty rain enveloped the Tianfu official post, with the wooden door partially covered and the roof covered in moss. It brought people back to the time of the ancient road, where the west wind was thin and the horse was agile. The sense of vicissitudes suddenly emerged.
In the Tiansheng Sanqiao Scenic Area, the natural landscape of connected caves and one cave covering the sky cannot be ignored. Flying springs and waterfalls are scattered along the secluded paths, and spectacular scenery such as mountains, waters, springs, canyons, and peaks are all available. It is a rare fairyland in the world. Tiansheng Sanqiao is composed of Tianlong Bridge, Qinglong Bridge, and Heilong Bridge, with different styles. Tianlong Bridge is like a flying dragon in the sky, and Qinglong Bridge is covered with green vines, resembling a green dragon soaring. Qinglong Bridge has a dark color, like a black dragon lying horizontally here.
After visiting Tiansheng Sanqiao, you can directly take a bus to the Impression Ran Grandma Restaurant in Xiannvshan Town for dining. You don't need to look at the menu here because it's a "whatever you have to eat" restaurant. The bacon smoked by the farmers themselves can be smelled from outside the door. It is reported that celebrities such as Wang Chaoge and Li Rui have visited Impression Ran Grandma Restaurant before.
After a whole day of sightseeing in the mountains and waters, watching 'Impression of Wulong' can dispel physical and mental exhaustion. Zhang Yimou served as the art consultant for 'Impression of Wulong', focusing on the disappearing 'Chuanjiang Haozi' as the main clue. In recent years, the development speed of technology has been getting faster and faster, and bulky wooden boats have long been replaced by motorized boats. We can no longer hear the grand and magnificent sound of the trumpet.
The women of Chongqing cry for the day they cry. "Along with the disappearance of the Chuanjiang opera, there is also the" crying wedding "of Chongqing girls. In" Impression of Wulong ", the sound of Chuanjiang opera and the crying wedding of Chongqing girls are re sung, and soul stirring music echoes in the valley.
Staying overnight at the Longxin Amber Hotel marks a perfect end to your day's itinerary, allowing you to fall asleep in the quiet night. The accommodations at the Longxin Amber Hotel are scattered in the garden, creating an elegant and unique environment. You can hear the sound of insects chirping on the windowsill.
The second day of this trip was a bit leisurely. In the morning, I visited Xiannv Town to explore the local specialties and experience the local customs. Since I'm here, it would be a pity not to pack a few bags of local specialties in my backpack. In Xiannv Mountain Town, the colorful summer houses are arranged in a staggered manner, and being in them feels like stepping into a fairy tale.
Xiannv Mountain Town also has a golden Ginkgo Avenue. At this time, it is autumn, and the ginkgo leaves on both sides of the street are falling with the wind. The autumn painting unfolds before my eyes. I believe that when all the ginkgo leaves turn yellow, it will attract a large wave of people!
If it's at night, I would definitely recommend you to take a walk on the road in Xiannv Mountain Town, because the flowers on both sides of the road are pleasant, there are fewer vehicles, and the dim lights fall into the night, which is more suitable for slowing down and humming slow songs, quietly enjoying the quiet time of the night.
If you feel hungry while strolling, you can go to Yujiazhuang Ecological Fish for a meal and experience the unique fat intestine fish, replenishing energy for your afternoon trip. The fish here are plump and the shrimp are strong, with the largest fish weighing over 5 pounds. The meat has a fragrant aroma and few thorns, and melts in the mouth. The wild eagle tea personally picked by the shop owner from the mountain has a slight bitter taste, but it has the effect of clearing heat and quenching thirst. This time, we will focus on the spicy and pickled Chinese cabbage flavor, which can be described as the combination of spicy and sour, and can especially conquer people's taste buds.
In the afternoon, we will take a car to Furong Cave, which takes about 40 minutes. From the entrance of the scenic area, we can take the cableway to fully enjoy the charming scenery of Furong River. Due to the upgrade period of Furong River, we were unable to go there, but it has become the expectation for the next trip.
The various shapes of stalactites in Furong Cave can indeed impress people. The "Giant Curtain Waterfall" descends from the cliff, and the lifelike "Little Wild Goose Pagoda" stands in the cave. The elusive "Sleeping Buddha" statue suddenly gives people a sense of awe towards nature. In Furong Cave, one must concentrate on observation because there is also an unmarked "Longevity Star Stone Statue". The beam of light behind the stone pillar rises slowly like the morning sun, making the cave a dreamlike realm. Seeing this mirror, one feels that this journey is not worth it.
The itinerary for the next day can also be as follows: in the morning, go to Xiannv Mountain National Forest Park, and in the afternoon, go to Furong Cave to have a glimpse of the entire cave. Xiannv Mountain has an average summer temperature of 24 ℃, making it a must visit place for summer escape and winter skiing. At Xiannv Mountain, you can also set up a tent to watch the sunrise and sunset, watch cows and sheep lazily grazing in the mountains, or ride horses galloping on the lawn.
Tianchi Miao Village is the last stop of this trip. As it is far away from the previous scenic area, it is placed at the end to experience. Tianchi Miao Village is located in Wenfeng Village, Houping Miao and Tujia Township, Wulong District, Chongqing. The Tujia ethnic group is the main ethnic group here, and the architectural style of the stilted houses is unified and orderly. The Houping Mountain Song sings the cultural heritage and life feelings of the Tujia people.
Yangjiao Ancient Town, Tiansheng Sanqiao, and the banks of the Furong River, each scenery is a masterpiece of nature. When you immerse yourself in it, you can feel the infinite charm of nature. Therefore, I like to come to Wulong, perceive and explore nature, and I hope you do the same.

The 2-hour drive from Chongqing to Wulong incurs a one-way toll of 95 yuan on the highway.
You can take a bus directly to the Xiannv Town Tourist Reception Center at Longtou Temple, which is four kilometers away, or take a tourist shuttle bus from the Crowne Plaza Hotel on Jiefang Street.
