Check in to the internet famous Chongqing in early autumn, avoid the summer student tourism and summer heat wave, and then throw away the hustle and bustle of the city to learn about the unique side of Chongqing in the quiet city of Wulong.

Speaking of Chongqing, we may think of Chongqing hotpot, Ciqikou, Monument to the people's Liberation, Hongya Cave on the Internet, the subway passing through the building, and Chongqing's attractive and charming hot girls, so Chongqing has always been one of the favorite tourist destinations. By bypassing the bustling main urban area of Chongqing and staying away from the fiery city culture, explore the natural scenery that belongs to Chongqing in Wulong and gain a deep understanding of Chongqing in tranquility.

Starting from downtown Chongqing, take the mountain road after getting off the highway. It takes about three hours to drive to Wulong Xiannv Mountain, and one cannot help but marvel at how big Chongqing is. Leaving the city, entering the mountains, and walking up winding mountain roads, the scenery around me also begins to change.

The breathtaking scenery of Chongqing is in Wulong. My friends and I have arranged three days in Wulong together, and everything is packed.

When it comes to Wulong Tiansheng Bridge, we are not unfamiliar with it because the movies "Transformers 4" and "Curse of the Golden Armor" have both been filmed here, and the variety show "Where Are We Going, Dad?" has also been recorded here.

At the entrance of the scenic area, you need to take a shuttle bus. After entering the scenic area, you will almost always go down the mountain without having to turn back. However, it should be noted that going down mountain roads can easily cause tension in the calf muscles, leading to leg pain the next day. Therefore, when climbing mountains, remember to massage and stretch the calf muscles.

Entering the mountains, the greenery is lush and the mountain path is narrow. There are also many masters who lift the sliding poles, which cost about 300 yuan. Two masters lift them, and a chair is fixed on the two poles. If you are overweight, it is said that you will need to pay extra. In fact, lifting a sliding pole is also a very traditional mode of transportation in Sichuan, because there are many mountains in Sichuan, so the sliding pole used to be a means of transportation. Nowadays, with the construction of highways, it is not commonly seen in places other than scenic spots. Elderly and children may want to experience it once.

What attracts movies and TV shows to come here for filming? The answer is: a gift from heaven, a masterpiece of nature. Wulong Tiansheng Bridge, also known as Tiankeng Sanqiao, is composed of Tianlong Bridge, Qinglong Bridge, and Heilong Bridge. The most amazing thing is that it is naturally formed without any human factors. And three bridges connect two mountains together, with two large pits in the middle, so the name Tiankeng Sanqiao is quite vivid.

The height, width, and span of the Tiankeng Three Bridges are over 150, 200, and 300 meters respectively, making it the largest natural bridge group in Asia. Coupled with the two large pits in the middle, this spectacle is also rare worldwide. The bridge hides large and small caves, and the spring water below the bridge is tinkling. Standing on the bridge, even though it is early autumn, the trees around are still full of green and emit vitality. Immersed in this vigorous, mysterious, and serene primitive natural scenery, it seems that one can temporarily forget all worries!

There is also a glass walkway hanging in the air, and the valley is at the foot. The Extreme Challenge was filmed here. Fortunately, I am not afraid of heights, so I can play without fear.

The most suitable season for tourism in Xiannv Mountain is winter. The forest sea, peculiar peaks, grasslands, and snowfields are known as the "Four Wonders" of Xiannv Mountain, and are also known as the "Switzerland of the East". Unfortunately, it is not yet winter and you cannot experience the fourth "Four Wonders" of Xiannv Mountain's snowfield scenery.

The name Xiannv Mountain is quite fairy like! Actually, it's also suitable for ordinary people to go up and play! I think the most unique feature of Xiannv Mountain is the grassland scenery. The 100000 mu high mountain grassland has earned Xiannv Mountain the reputation of "the first pasture in the south".

However, the green grass on Xiannv Mountain is lush, with cows and sheep leisurely eating the grass, giving it a pastoral atmosphere. Here, you can also experience outdoor games such as horse racing, grass skating, archery, etc., and it won't be very boring. It's more than enough to pass the time.

You can experience horseback riding at the racetrack.

Even if you are not interested in these things, strolling among the thousands of acres of forests and grasslands has opened up dedicated places for tourists to camp, and breathing fresh air in the natural oxygen bar is also good.

Furong Cave is known as the "most beautiful cave in China", with a colorful and vibrant interior that feels like entering an underground palace.

It goes without saying that there are various strange sediments, and on the cave walls, there are also numerous white and delicate crystal flowers, which are as delicate as hair and coiled like roots, looking particularly peculiar. Indeed, the cave is vast and many landscapes are very unique, surpassing some other caves.

Furong Cave is quite beautiful, but the entire scenic area of Wulong can be described as "climbing mountains" with one verb. Although it is fun, it is still quite tiring to play. There is also a high-altitude observation cableway next to Furong Cave, spanning the Furong River. If you are tired from walking, you can take the cableway to play. Play. Of course, this also requires some courage. Sitting on the cableway, there is nothing around, and looking down from the cableway is the rolling Furong River.

After seeing the colorful underground palace Furong Cave, I discovered a high-altitude cableway nearby! I think it's fate that insists on me taking a break halfway and enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Furong River. The high-altitude observation cableway spans the Furong River, and taking the cableway can effortlessly enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Furong River. It's so easy to climb up and down the mountain!

From the cableway, the Furong River is surrounded by green mountains on both sides, with a high coverage of plants on the mountains, including many plants that I couldn't name at the moment; The meandering Furong River's water is emerald green and looks very clean and comfortable.

The mountains and waters of Wulong, Chongqing are fresh and beautiful, and there is a road along the Furong River that is perfect for sightseeing. Seeing the cars on the other side driving on the road carved out of the steep cliffs in the mountains, it is both steep and awe inspiring for the difficulty of road excavation and construction.

The wonders of ground fissures in Wulong, Chongqing also require taking a shuttle bus from the scenic area. After getting off the bus, we walk all the way down the mountain, which is truly called "ground fissures". Walking down the mountain, there are always mountain fissures above our heads. If someone looks down from above, they will definitely see us walking on the winding mountain paths. As we walked, it started to drizzle, and the road was very humid, even the green grass and trees were moist.

The scenery is very unique. Along the mountain road, there are extremely high cliffs on both sides, as if walking in a crevice, like a leisurely and secluded fairyland. The most beautiful one among them is the waterfall, there is a large waterfall, and there are also many small and medium-sized waterfalls along the way. Walking and taking photos all the way, the mountains are filled with moist green, and I really like it here. And it won't be too tiring to go all the way down the mountain.

The local specialty street in Wulong successfully caught my attention! Here, I see some things that I have never seen before: August fried rice balls, lotus seeds, dried bamboo shoots, sour prickly pears... There is a local specialty street in Wulong, and the things on the street are all sold by nearby residents, as well as snacks such as rice cakes, grilled meat, corn, etc.

There are many things among them that I haven't seen before. For example, wild kiwis that are smaller than eggs, sour prickly pears covered in thorns, August fried ones that look like eggplants or radishes and will self fry in August, and bamboo shoots dried by villagers themselves also smell very good.

Anyway, for those who have never been to rural areas in Chongqing, these local specialties are very rare, and it's also good to bring some as souvenirs!

After a brief understanding, most of the foreign lotus is wild. Although they are not big, they are quite delicious when stir fried with cured meat! August fried, as the name suggests, refers to fruits that will be fried by oneself in August. They can be washed clean and eaten raw, and their taste is a bit like bananas! Sour prickly pear is covered in thorns, resembling a hedgehog in the plant kingdom. It is commonly used by locals to make wine and drink. Dried bamboo shoots are easy to carry and preserve, and human wisdom is always infinite!

There is also wild kiwifruit, a Sichuan specialty that is smaller than an egg in size. But it feels so hard to hold, I heard it needs to be put away for a while when I buy it back. Perhaps the locals used this directly to make wine. I have tried kiwi fruit wine before and I don't know if it was made with this wild kiwi fruit.

Impression Wulong "is a large-scale landscape performance created by combining Wulong Karst World Natural Heritage resources and local cultural characteristics. It has the passionate joining of famous director Zhang Yimou!

From this drama, we can fully understand the culture of Bayu. What impressed me the most is the "Chuanjiang Haozi". Hundreds or thousands of people are pulling big boats by the river, shouting loudly. The spirit of unity, cooperation, and tenacious struggle of Bayu people is touching. The boatman cannot wear clothes while pulling the rope because clothes are easily worn out, and this kind of hard work is also impressive in the performance.

The actors narrated the story with their singing and local accents, which was particularly moving. My best friend and I both shed tears. Nowadays, there are not many boatmen who can still sing the "Chuanjiang Song", and the number of former boatmen alive is also decreasing. It is almost becoming a masterpiece of all time.

Perhaps what everyone doesn't know is that the famous Chongqing hotpot is actually related to these boatmen. Hotpot is a delicacy they created in winter to keep warm and cool, and is easy to operate. So in 'Impression of Wulong', there is a special section that tells the story of Chongqing's cuisine.

It is said to be an ancient town here, but some of the buildings are also newly built, although they cannot be called 100% ancient towns. At first, I was a bit puzzled when I arrived here. Why does Yangjiao Ancient Town look like a newly built ancient town?

In fact, Yangjiao Ancient Town is indeed an ancient town, and Yangjiao Ancient Town is closely related to the culture of boatmen. It is one of the four famous towns on the Wujiang River, which was once prosperous during the Ming and Qing dynasties. Due to the turbulent water flow of Wuli Long Beach at that time, it was known as the first dangerous shoal of the Wujiang River. In the past, merchant ships unloaded their cargo and loaded them lightly onto the beach, creating a bustling scene and forming a unique dock culture. Based on the ruins of the ancient town at that time, the reconstruction of the town at Yangjiaoqi in Wulong will restore the prosperous scene of its heyday and showcase the culture of boatmen.

But there are many residents living among them, and they also have a strong sense of life. The old man who weaves bamboo baskets, the girl wearing Hanfu, and the aunt who makes sweet potato flour. Everyone is busy and fulfilling their duties, bringing a very strong sense of life to people.

You can see a very famous lamb horn dried tofu sold all over the street, which is said to be the most distinctive local specialty. I bought a bowl of sweet potato powder to eat, and my aunt made it and ate it right away. It only takes three minutes to make it in one go, and it's added to the pre mixed sour and spicy seasonings. It's really comfortable to eat it hot in rainy weather.
