At this time, the number of tourists at the entrance of the Forest Park began to increase. They were all from Zhangjiajie City. Those like us who rushed here from Wulingyuan were almost negligible. Only one daughter accompanied her parents in the car (both of them were 75 years old). After exchanges, I felt that great minds think alike.

Soon after entering the park, I arrived at the Dayang Bar Square. Dayang Bar Square is the only way to go to Huangshi Village and Jinbian River. It is also known as a valley with a particularly high amount of negative ions. There was no sun on this day, the clouds were thick, and the fog was slightly thick. I wasn't sure if it was fog or haze, so I didn't dare to take a deep breath because I was afraid. The air in Zhangjiajie City, 30 kilometers away, is also moderately polluted.

We took the scenic area's eco-friendly car to Huangshizhai Cableway Station and took the cable car up the mountain (you can also walk up the mountain). When we stepped off the cable car, we were greeted by a group of wild monkeys. They squatted on the ground, sat on railings, and hung on trees. They were allowed to take photos by tourists in various postures, and even teased, waiting for tourists 'condolences.

Saying goodbye to the wild monkeys, we followed the tour route to view the nominal attractions on the map one by one. On the viewing trail, wild monkeys frolicking and chasing from time to time, passing around our feet.

After walking around Huangshi Village, I felt like looking at the mountains in the fog, hazy and flashing. Take the cable car down the mountain and return to the Dayang Bar Square to prepare to visit the Jinbian River. At the entrance of Jinbian River, we took a short rest to fill our stomachs and replenish our strength.

Jinbian River has a total length of 7.5 kilometers and is one of the earliest scenic spots developed in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. It originates from Tudiya in Zhangjiajie. It meanders from south to north, moves with the mountains, and flows between the peaks and valleys. Finally, it gathers with Longwei River, Yuyan River and Kandong River in Shuiaomen. "Three thousand strange peaks and eight hundred beautiful waters", Jinbianxi brings into full play the landscape of Zhangjiajie, and has the reputation of "thousands of years of continuous drought, and thousands of years of continuous rain and blue rain."

From Dayang Bar Square to Shuiwaosimen, the sightseeing trail along Jinbian River runs almost from top to bottom, but the slope is very gentle, and you don't feel tired when walking slowly.

There are many people in Jinbianxi, which is exaggeratedly no less than Nanjing Road in Shanghai. Because tourists entering through the gate of the Forest Park must pass through the Jinbian River to enter the hinterland of the Forest Park, the tour guide's electric horn sounds every few minutes.

Is it because of the foggy weather that it doesn't feel as good as the introduction, and the amount of the stream is very small and the people are noisy, so there is no feeling of walking by the stream at all.

At first, we walked at the speed of a walking, chatting, watching, listening, and taking pictures. There is no need to hire a tour guide in Jinbianxi. The team comes one by one. If you can't hear clearly once, you can listen again.

Unexpectedly, after walking about 1/3 of the journey, my wife's foot was inexplicably sprained. She walked well and was on the ground. So he helped him move forward with difficulty.

As we walked, a woman suddenly stood in front of us. She was stunned for a few seconds before she realized it. The first thing between the two sides was: "No way..." She was a high school classmate whose wife had been lost for more than 20 years. After the surprise, they left each other's phone numbers, WeChat signals, took photos, etc. What a coincidence, I talked to my wife about this classmate in the morning, and talked about graduating from high school and traveling with her to Beijing, and then going to college, work, get married, have children, and lose contact.

We couldn't find it in Shanghai, but instead we met in Jinbianxi, Zhangjiajie, thousands of miles away. If we hadn't been walking towards each other; if our wife hadn't been supporting her with a sprained ankle, we might have passed by and I don't know when we would get in touch.

Our classmate went to chase her tour group, but we were still moving forward slowly and our feet were getting more and more painful. At this speed, he couldn't walk out of Jinbian River for 5 hours, so he decided to take a slide pole.

The pole master walked very quickly, explaining as he walked, and I followed closely behind. It was difficult to adapt to the transformation from turtle speed to rapid marching, and I was panting. I thought I couldn't compare with pole skaters. They were practicing cross-country with heavy loads of 5 kilometers every day, and I would be tired to death following them. I'll still move at my speed and just ask my wife to wait for me at Shuihuan Simen.

By the time I arrived at Shuihuan Simen, they had arrived not long ago. It seemed that my speed was not slow either. The environmental protection station is not far away, so I gritted my teeth and insisted on walking to the station. My wife told me that one of the two masters who had just carried her was 74 years old. She didn't believe it at first. After seeing the old man's ID card, she confirmed that he was 74 years old. My wife felt sorry and gave the old man some money again and thanked him repeatedly. The people in the mountains are really healthy!

Take the environmentally friendly bus and you will soon reach the entrance of Shili Gallery.

Zhangjiajie Shili Gallery is located in Suoxiyu Scenic Area and is the essence of tourism in the scenic area. On both sides of this ten-mile-long valley, there are rich natural landscapes, and walking along the way seems to be in a painting. As for those named attractions, if you think they are like them, if you don't, they don't.

I saw the infirmary at the entrance and was lucky it was open. When I went in and asked if there was medicine to treat sprain, I bought Yunnan Baiyao Spray to treat my wife first.

You can visit Shili Gallery on foot or take a sightseeing train. We chose to take the sightseeing train, but I came back on foot. Fortunately, you don't have to leave the Shili Gallery, otherwise you will have to give up.

Sitting in the small train, you can listen to the introduction of scenic spots along the way, but the photography is a little unsatisfactory. In addition, it is a little late in the fog and weather. I got off the bus at the finish line, found a place to rest, and drank some water and ate something. There was also a tourist attraction up there, so we gave up. On the way back, my wife continued to take the small train, so I walked down and took some photos.

On the way back, I saw a sign introducing Ganoderma lucidum standing on the roadside (see the picture), and I wanted to turn in and see what was going on. Two young men happened to come out and asked about the situation. They replied that it was fake and that the Ganoderma lucidum was made of wood. Think about it. Would the precious Ganoderma lucidum be placed outside for everyone to watch? So he decided to give up.

It took 40 minutes to complete the journey, joined his wife, and helped her to the environmental protection station. Due to timely treatment, my wife's feet improved a lot when she arrived at the hotel.
