For old drivers who love self-driving tours, it is now the most beautiful time of the year. With one foot on the accelerator, you can dig into the Qinling Mountains, and there are colorful visual feasts everywhere. In the past two days, Xiaoyu has also introduced several classic Qinling self-driving tourist routes. The old Qinling National Highway introduced today belongs to the "Xi'an must-drive" series.

First, the starting point of this self-driving route is in Xi'an City, and you can enter the mountains with a foot pedal; second, this old Panshan National Highway is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with harsh roads, beautiful scenery and few people; Third, this route has many choices to play, and you can play the loop line or turn back on the original road. A one-day trip is suitable for two days; fourth, there is also a primeval mystery hidden in the entire route, known as the Shangri-La in the Qinling Mountains.

That's right, it is the famous-[Qinling Section of National Highway 108].

National Highway 108 is a north-south corridor from Beijing to Kunming. Before the emergence of highways, this road could be called one of China's north-south arteries. Among them, the Qinling Mountains in Shaanxi is an important passage connecting Guanzhong and southern Shaanxi from Xi'an to Foping County in Hanzhong. Before the opening of the Xihan Expressway in 2007, this old national highway was once very lively. Now it has become a Qinling Landscape Avenue. Especially every autumn, the mountains and trees change from sporadic mottled to colorful lights. Driving through National Highway 108 by yourself is like walking into a long scroll of landscape oil painting.

So, what to do when driving Qinling National Highway 108? How to play? What are the classic routes? Xiao Yu simply sorted it out for everyone. If you have travel needs, you may wish to refer to it.

For Xi'an tourists, self-driving National Highway 108 is suitable for both one-day and two-day tours. There are also two classic route options for the two-day tour.

The specific routes are:

1. Xi'an--Mazhao Town, Zhouzhi County--Xianyou Temple--Heihe Reservoir Scenic Platform--National Highway 108--Heihe Forest Park--Zhouzhi Old County--Xi'an;

2. Xi'an-Mazhao Town, Zhouzhi County-Xianyou Temple-Heihe Reservoir Scenic Platform-National Highway 108-Foping County-Xi'an.

Starting from the urban area of Xi'an, after driving to Mazhao Town, Zhouzhi, follow Heihe Valley into the Qinling Mountains, and you have already entered National Highway 108. The Qinling Mountains section of National Highway 108 is very suitable for self-driving tours. This winding mountain road is winding and winding. On one side is the cliff of the Qinling Mountains, and on the other side is the slowly flowing Black River. It turns around the mountains and rivers. Even if you sit in a car, it can also give tourists a strong visual impact.

In addition, there are few cars and few people, there are basically no big cars, and the asphalt road conditions are good throughout the journey, so you can enjoy the fun of driving a winding mountain road by yourself. Of course, Xiao Yu still had to remind that National Highway 108 has many steep corners, and the speed limit is 30 yards. Moreover, there is a section deep in the mountains where there is no mobile phone signal. Everyone should still drive carefully while driving on a self-driving tour.

In addition to enjoying the fun of self-driving in the Qinling Mountains, there are also many cultural and natural attractions along National Highway 108.

When you first drive National Highway 108 from Mazhao Town, Zhouzhi, you will see a tall tower along the road. This is a long-standing ancient temple-[Xianyou Temple]. [Xianyou Temple] was built in the Sui Dynasty and has been a cultural resort since ancient times. Many ancient literati and literati have come to visit it. The Song of Eternal Regret by Bai Juyi, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, was written in this temple. However, when the Heihe Reservoir was built, Xianyou Temple was forced to relocate. Now the Xianyou Temple we see is already relocated. The tall tower is called the "Dharma King Tower". It was an ancient building in the Sui Dynasty and is now a national key cultural relic protection unit. If you have time, you can visit the temple.

National Highway 108 is surrounded by mountains and rivers throughout the entire journey, accompanied by Xi'an people's mother river [Heihe River]. A few kilometers just into the mountain, there are several simple viewing platforms along the way, from which you can overlook the Heihe Reservoir.
