[Preparations]
1.automobile: During a self-driving tour, the first thing to do is check and maintain the car to ensure that the donkey does not strike halfway, especially the tire pressure. I bring a tire pressure gauge to measure it at high speed and feel safe. Safety comes first.

2.refreshing: Red Bull is a must-have for long-distance driving to refresh yourself. Blue Can Red Bull is the best. Coffee is also good.

3.sunscreen：. The key to protecting sun during long-distance driving in summer is to buy 4 window sun screens. It was a good journey, especially in the back row.

4.drug: Medicines for heatstroke prevention and cooling, medicines for bruises, colds and diarrhea.

5.insurance: Ping An Personal Comprehensive Accident Insurance for one year, 108 yuan/person. My wife and daughter both have commercial insurance. The travel insurance they had taken for every trip before was overpaid. Only I did not have it. Considering that the whole family had more self-driving, I bought it directly for a year.

6.tool：. Umbrella, hat, sleeve and sunscreen skin care products, mobile phone chargers, flashlights, charging treasure.

7.materials: Mineral water, self-heating rice, instant noodles, potato chips, coconut milk, chewing gum, chocolate, coffee, milk, fruits, etc., war preparations on the road and needed to pass the time. Anyway, the whole family has gained weight after returning from the tour.

8.Hotel:Booking in advance will give you a lot of discounts. I am a Gold Member of Home Inns, and the breakfast buffet is free, which is convenient and saves money.

9.Attraction tickets:They were all booked at Ctrip, which is convenient and affordable.

10.stroke: Baidu Map Navigation plans your itinerary and play routes in advance, and you will have confidence if you have a clear idea. Some friends lack confidence in self-driving travel, and more importantly, lack courage.

There are many benefits to making an itinerary plan: 1. First, you will understand the geographical location and familiarise yourself with the directions. 2. You will slowly understand the local characteristics and customs. 3. The planning and reservation of accommodation can provide a good understanding of the general outline of the city. 4. The itinerary of scenic spots should be based on the principle of being convenient and familiar with the traffic roads.

My daughter was promoted to the beginning of this year. She originally planned to go to the seaside for a vacation during the summer, but she didn't expect that after the final exam, her daughter would say that she would go to Chongqing. There are delicious and interesting things there (I don't know where she saw them). She said that women are fickle, and this little girl is more fickle. The 3,000-kilometer Qinggan Grand Loop Road last summer and the 2,000-kilometer Xiamen self-driving tour during this year's winter vacation made me want to relax this summer. I could just relax and play with the group without worrying so much. However, my two lovers can tell you various reasons for not joining the group, which is called freedom. In fact, they have to sleep until they wake up naturally: ), I can only continue to get busy.

I specially bought a Chinese map to study and plan the route with my daughter.

I made an appointment with my daughter to participate in the formulation of the annual travel plan after entering junior high school, so that she can understand the vast land and resources of our motherland and increase her travel knowledge. We constantly revised the itinerary based on Baidu maps and Ctrip travel. The final itinerary was planned based on our daughter's suggestions.

This is the route planned in the early stage, but Chengdu failed to make up for it. Let's keep it for the Sichuan-Tibet route in the future.

Various reasons affect the final actual route.

Compared with holiday-style travel, self-driving travel is quite hard, but it is also the fun. Looking back, self-driving brings the most unforgettable surprises and the deepest memories in my mind. This is also the most important gift I want to give my daughter to graduate from primary school. Of course, I also enjoyed the fun of driving by car. The family laughed and laughed all the way ~~~~

The first day (2019.7.30) Depart to Wuhan + Yellow Crane Tower + Hubu Lane

This was taken secretly by my daughter in the back row, and it also records every detail of the journey well. The entire journey was photographed on Huawei's mobile phone. My daughter and I were both old models more than 2 years old. I think it is more important to record stories during travel than to shoot blockbusters.

Near Wuhan, it has reached 41 degrees, and the speed has dropped a lot. Safety comes first when entering the service area to take a break to cool down the donkey!

The advantages of self-driving travel are that in addition to sheets and blankets, my daughter had to bring pillows. I told her she should put a mattress on as well.

Stayed in the hotel's family room with a child room, which was very comfortable.

After arriving at the hotel at around 3 p.m. to tidy up for a break, I was ready to go to the Yellow Crane Tower. The little girl was doing a good job of sunbathing.

I also love beauty when I am older, so I take pictures of my long legs.

It's a 10-minute walk from the hotel along the mountain path to the Yellow Crane Tower. Walking under the shade of the trees, you can't feel the high temperature at all. It's much more comfortable than our sultry weather in Jiangsu.

The Yellow Crane Tower is located at the head of Yellow Crane in Sheshan, Wuhan City, facing Parrot Island. Together with Yueyang Tower in Hunan, Tengwang Pavilion in Jiangxi, and Penglai Pavilion in Shandong, it is collectively known as the four most famous buildings in China. It is said that it was built during the Three Kingdoms period and has been destroyed and built repeatedly in the past dynasties. The current building was rebuilt in 1981 and is based on the Qing Dynasty "Tongzhi Building" as the prototype design. The building site is still on Snake Hill. The main building is 49 meters high and has five floors in total, with spires and layers of cornices, looking like one from all directions. The outer eaves columns on the ground floor have a diameter of 30 meters. There are large embossed on the front wall of the central hall, showing the myths and legends about the Yellow Crane Tower in the past; the third floor has a sandwich corridor to display relevant poems, calligraphy and paintings; There are four corridors on the second, third and fourth floors for visitors to overlook the distance; the fifth floor is a lookout hall, where you can enjoy the scenery of the river; the ancillary buildings include Xianzao Pavilion, Shizhao Pavilion, Xiaojing of the Return of the Yellow Crane, etc.

It was close to 17:00 when we climbed the Yellow Crane Tower. There were relatively few people, and it was the best to travel off-peak during the summer.

They all say,"The old friend leaves the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and the fireworks will go to Yangzhou in March." Our family went the opposite way, leaving Yangzhou in the east and meeting the Yellow Crane Tower in the west.

My 12-year-old daughter is getting taller and taller. When I went to Shaolin Temple the year before last, she was only on my shoulder. Now she is almost catching up with me. She doesn't worry much, but also worries my wife if she grows up too fast. I feel that I am in the best health.

Suggestion:

Entering from the east gate, there will be a battery car calling for 10 yuan/person to take it to the Yellow Crane Tower. Please don't take it and drive there. It will only take 2 minutes. Follow the walking path to the Yellow Crane Tower, and you will see more scenery.

Hubu Lane is under renovation, leaving regrets!

The next day (2019.7.31) Wuhan University in the morning + go to Zhangjiajie City in the afternoon

I got up early in the morning and went out for a stroll on a shared bicycle. Next to me was Zhongnan University of Economics and Law. I rode in and felt the early morning campus atmosphere. The students didn't see it. Most of them were people walking around for morning exercises. I am also old!

Open to the gate of Wuhan University at 9 o'clock, and it is forbidden to enter the parking lot parked at the gate on campus.

The landmark at the entrance is very distinctive. There are not many tourists in the morning. The family goes around and rides bicycles. I like the feeling of being at the Wanlin Art Museum in Wuhan University most. The piano music is extremely beautiful.

I took a lot of beautiful photos next to this big tree, and I also ran to the side and played tennis with an old man. My body and mind were extremely happy!

Every time I go to a city, I like to go to the university with my daughter and let her feel the atmosphere of the university campus. I also enjoy playing ball skills with college students: ). Xiamen University was unable to make the trip during the winter vacation due to the appointment time. I have regrets that you can experience it yourself when you grow up.

This is the staircase of Wuhan University Wanlin Art Museum. It is very artistic and has different beauty when viewed from top to bottom.

The staff played smoothly and smoothly, and my daughter couldn't leave listening to it.

When I came out of the museum, I found two shared bicycles and scanned the code and rode them immediately. What's better, the first seven times were free and were very easy to use. The progress of our country is truly obvious to all.

It is also a beautiful scenery for a funny girl wearing a big mask while riding in Wuhan University.

The student dormitory is really special. It's the first time I've seen it.

Standing on a tripod, this rainwater cover plate is unique.

Eat KFC near the entrance of Wuhan University at noon and drive all the way to Zhangjiajie.

Arrive at Wulingyuan Weiyi Fashion Hotel at around 7:30 p.m.. Reason for choosing: A 5-minute walk to Wulingyuan Scenic Area is the biggest advantage. It is still very convenient to visit Wulingyuan Scenic Area with a 4-day ticket validity period. There are supermarkets and delicious food nearby.

Day 3 (2019.8.1) Wulingyuan Scenic Area (Shili Gallery + Bailong Tiantian + Yuanjiajie + Jinbianxi)

Feature 1 The core scenic spot of Zhangjiajie and Yuanjiajie are the shooting site of "Avatar".

Feature 2 The natural scenery is amazing by the peaks, the valleys show the tranquility, and the forests show the beauty.

Feature 3 has a forest coverage rate of 98%, making it a huge biological treasure house and natural oxygen bar.

In order to avoid the flow of people, we came to the door at 8 a.m., but there were still many people during the summer vacation. Check tickets and make environmentally friendly vehicles. Environmentally friendly vehicles in the scenic area are free.

It would be impossible to play it all within three days. I just picked the key points and played it easier, because after traveling all the "Five Mountains without looking at the mountains, and Huangshan without looking at the mountains when you return." My wife and daughter reached an alliance and said they would never climb mountains again. They passed by during the winter vacation and stayed in the Wuyi Mountain Scenic Area, but this time, under my persuasion and the name of Zhangjiajie finally agreed to go. Although I had a great time, I repeated it again after going down the mountain: This is the last time I climb the mountain, that's enough, hahaha ~~

The little monkey at the end of Shili Gallery

The Bailong Ladder is located in the Wulingyuan Scenic Area of Zhangjiajie, the core of the world's natural heritage. The Bailong Ladder, known as the "Oriental Eiffel Tower", is a double-decker sightseeing elevator among China's top 11 creative elevators in the world. It is on the same footing as the German fish tank elevator and the American Arch elevator. Tourists standing in the double-decker fully exposed sightseeing elevator is like a fairyland. They can enjoy the "generals 'formation" of 48 independent stone peaks and tour the core scenic spots of Zhangjiajie.

The elevator ticket I bought for the Bailong Stairway (round-trip) was 130 yuan. There were relatively few people, so I wasn't tired. I really felt very convenient to reach the top of the mountain in 1 minute and 28 seconds. If I climbed the mountain for at least 3 hours, the scenery of Wulingyuan is mainly the top and bottom of the mountain, so I don't waste this energy and time.

The shooting location of Yuan Jiajie's avatar in the Hallelujah Mountains. Yuanjiajie Scenic Area is a mountainous high platform, with lush trees and beautiful scenery filled with fog and peaks. At the same time, it is also the location of the suspended mountain "Hallelujah Mountains" in the movie "Avatar".

Three-part similarity, seven-part imagination.

Jinbian River is a stream more than ten kilometers long. You can walk along the stream from Zhangjiajie to Suoxi Valley. The peaks and forests on both sides face each other, reflecting the stream, giving it a unique flavor. The Jinbian River runs along the Qingxi River, which is like the Jinbian River in the middle of the painting meeting the Pipa River in the west and the Suoxi River in the east. It is a winding and deep canyon. The scenery on both sides of the Taiwan Strait is beautiful, and the attractions are numerous. The Golden Whip Rock, the Shenying Whip Protection, the Wenxing Rock, the Zaicao Pond, the Thousand Miles Meeting, and the Jumping Fish Pond are particularly unique. Walking through the peaks and valleys, the stream is clear and colorful, with small fish swimming in it; the flowers and plants along the stream are delicious, and the birds and warblers are singing, which is like swimming in a painting.

Playing in the water in Jinbian River in the afternoon is the most enjoyable and relaxing part of the day. The stream is clear and deep, and my daughter and I were soaked when we left.

Broken umbrellas can also bring great joy. I brought three umbrellas for this trip, one broke here and the other broke during a water battle in the Mengdong River.

While playing in the water, I thought of a colleague of mine who loves Yuhua Stone. If he were here, he would be extremely happy, but Zhangjiajie would lose natural resources: )

The following are old photos of going to Zhangjiajie with good friends 20 years ago. At that time, the films are extremely precious to this day. What is even more precious is the 20-year friendship that remains unchanged. I wanted to go back to my old place and take a photo, but in the end, I only went to Jinbianxi to reminisce about the flourishing scenery 20 years ago.

Hunan food is very delicious at night.

The rice on Wulingyuan Mountain is at a minimum of 30 yuan/person, but it is still very difficult to eat. This time, KFC is full and the price is relatively expensive.

Day 4 (2019.8.2) Morning rest + afternoon Mengdong River

I was tired from climbing the mountain yesterday and arranged to rest in the morning. I originally wanted to get up early and take a stroll into the mountains myself, but I gave up, so I walked around my accommodation.

Near noon, I found the famous local straw hat noodles. The whole family loves to eat pasta and will try it every place they go. After eating it, I feel average, but the taste may be different.

Mengdong River is also the only way to Chongqing. You don't have to go back on the road and play without going back.

The Mengdong River is rich in water, with large river slopes, rapid water beaches and strange waves. Tall cliffs penetrate directly into the water, and the banks of the river are close to each other, forming a deep canyon landscape. On both sides of the river, ancient trees and skies are green, strange rocks are scattered, and flowing springs and waterfalls can be seen everywhere. The downstream road is green with clear waters and mountains, with beautiful scenery, swarms of wild monkeys, and unique caves. The Mengdong River has a total length of 47 kilometers. The highlight is located in the section from Hanigong to Niulu, which is about 17 kilometers long. Most of the scenic spot on both sides are primeval sub-forests, lush green, rapid water, and clear green. It has the reputation of ten miles of cliffs, ten miles of waterfalls and springs, ten miles of painting scrolls, and ten miles of caves. Among them, there are 108 rapids and dangerous shoals and 20 large and small waterfalls. Drifting, crossing rapids, crossing dangerous shoals, breaking into narrow ravines, catching strong waves, and having endless aftertaste. In particular, the Hani Palace, Triangle Rock, Jilongmen, Yuxian Gorge (pinching soil), Yanwangtan, Sinkhole, Mengsi Gorge, carp belly cut, Three Cannons and other scenic spots are all amazing.

The starting point is about 40 kilometers away from Wangcun, and the driving point is 1 hour. The ending point is Niulu River, which is a 30-minute drive away from Wangcun. The rafting waterway is 17 kilometers long and the rafting takes three and a half hours. There is a landing to rest and replenish supplies in the middle. Snacks are very expensive. It is recommended to bring your own snacks and drinks. Water warfare is really exhausting.

Booking 170 yuan on Ctrip is cheaper than on site. If you show your ID card at the window to collect the ticket, it will be 150 yuan/person for local residents.

Suggestion:

1. There is no need to wear a raincoat for rafting, because it will get soaked. People who fight water battles are enthusiastic, but it is necessary to bring a plastic belt to change clothes. It is not easy to catch a cold when you come back from a hot bath at the destination.

2. The water guns made by the villagers are very powerful. It is recommended to consider buying them or you will suffer losses in the battle. The water guns range from 20 yuan to 40 yuan. Those plastic water guns on the shore are useless.

3. Don't hit a boat with a baby, and don't shoot it directly on the head.

4. If summer rafting strongly recommended getting sun protection, my daughter and I would have been dark, and my wife's umbrella protected her well, but the umbrella was broken.

crystal clear

Rafting is very exciting, the water quality is very good and clear, and it is very cool. There are several turning and dangerous beaches that are more interesting. Everyone should sit tight. The scenery on both sides of the strait is very pleasant.

Don't miss the Mengdong River rafting when you come to Zhangjiajie. It's very worth it. The water is clear, the mountains are green, and the waterfalls are refreshing and refreshing. There are a few photos, so I can't help it. It's too late to fight and there are dangerous beaches. To take a photo, I have to keep my eyes open and ears open.

After rafting and resting at the hotel, Chongqing is getting closer and closer.

On the fifth day (2019.8.3), drive to Wulong Hotel

I climbed three mountains from Longshan County before arriving at the highway. If you had to drive back 50 kilometers to get around the highway, there was not a lot of time, so I chose the mountain road. The fun of Kaishan Road is great, with many unexpected surprises and beautiful scenery.

Yuanxian Hotel is located at the entrance of Wulong Tiansheng Sanqiao Scenic Area, 1050 meters away. It is very cool in the summer heat of August. The hotel facilities had no air conditioning before, but after communicating with the boss on the phone, I was still worried, and only gave up after arriving. It was also the happiest and most affordable B & B I stayed in during this self-driving trip. All three meals were very good, and the portions were too large to finish. The lingering aroma of fried bacon still has endless aftertaste.

leisure time

Take a stroll around after dinner and make it cool and comfortable.

I will continue to walk with you on the road ahead!

The sixth day (2019.8.4) in the morning, Wulong Tiansheng Third Bridge + afternoon to Chongqing + evening Jiefangbei, Bayi Road.

Because of the hotel's excellent location, the weather is beautiful, there is no sun, and it is very cool. After breakfast, our family walked for 5 minutes to the entrance of the scenic area at 8:00. The first group of tourists to enter the park was the first to come to the bottom of the Tiankeng. The tranquility was the most enjoyable part of this trip. We enjoyed it slowly, took pictures slowly, and walked slowly. This is really a rare tranquility in the summer resort.

Doesn't the courtyard below look familiar? "The city is full of golden armor"

Sitting opposite me and taking more than ten photos, I like it!

Green Dragon Crescent Knife, who can compete with it?

My wife is a virtuous wife and the logistics manager for every trip. This time, she also shared the role of the driver, allowing me to have a full rest in the back row and feel the most relaxed self-driving tour. On the occasion of your birthday, may you always be young!

My little lover in my previous life is getting taller and taller. I can't bear to let you grow up!

Taking pictures of sinkholes on cloudy days is not good, but the human body feels comfortable.

King Kong, do you see it?

Tiankeng Tour Route:

1. Follow the main road down the mountain and enter the vertical sightseeing elevator to go straight down the bottom of the mountain.

2. Follow the sightseeing route and you will see Tianlong Bridge and Tianfu Guanyi. The background of Transformers is Tianlong Bridge, and if you go forward, you will see Qinglong Bridge and Heilong Bridge.

3. Follow the plank road to the end of the local food street. Go through the market, get on the bus and return to the ticket office.

note: Tourists from Shandong can enter the park for free with their ID cards. The Qilian Mountains that visited last summer were also free for Shandong tourists. The Shandong people have made a great contribution.

There was a 200-meter long line at the ticket gate outside the scenic area at about 10:30 after I came out of Tiankeng. I was secretly happy with my itinerary plan: )

Suggestion:

There is a new asphalt road on Tiankeng Mountain in Wulong that has just been repaired. The navigation shows that there are many cars in two lanes. When walking, the boss specifically pointed out that the descent was nearly 30 minutes faster.

I am ready to go to town in the afternoon.

Chongqing's normalized restricted areas

Yuao Bridge, Huanghuayuan Bridge, Jiahua Bridge

Divide the mantissa (Arabic numerals 0 - 9) of motor vehicle license plates (including temporary license plates) into 5 groups, and each 2 digits is a group. Motor vehicles with the tail number of 1 group are prohibited from passing through the above mentioned restricted hours every working day. Bridge.

Self-driving friends need to be clear

The track above is Line 2, which allows you to go to the famous Chuanfang Liziba Station

All the family rooms booked for this trip slept well at night and had a good time the next day, especially driving by themselves.

The hotel is ideally located next to Chaotianmen Wharf. After arriving at the hotel and resting, you can walk 10 minutes to Bayi Road to eat.

All kinds of queues and all kinds of food, my wife and the girl were full of energy, while I sat on the steps and watched the rolling crowd and waiting for food.

After eating and strolling back to the hotel, I looked at the fiery red river at the dock. I'm sorry that my mobile phone couldn't take the results.

The sixth day (2019.8.5) Chongqing People's Auditorium + Yangtze River Cableway + Hongya Cave at night.

The Yangtze River Cableway is also a 10-minute walk from the hotel.

I have to make an appointment for the Yangtze River Cableway. I had a lot of people during the summer, and I couldn't make an appointment until 3 hours later. I gave up decisively. I came to play, not to queue up. According to the words of Chongqing locals: It's just a hanging bus, then I'll take a look.

Stroll around.

Chongqing's feeling: Mountain city, cars are really difficult to drive.

With the red clothes in the auditorium, the red star boy!

Chongqing noodles at noon, the beef is really fragrant.

After eating the hot pot, I saw the brown sugar glutinous rice cake and couldn't stop, so I continued to hold on.

Although the scenery is good, there are too many people, and Internet celebrities can check in.

Day 8 (2019.8.6) Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts + Liziba Station + Bayi Road Delicious Street

Sichuan Fine Arts Institute, referred to as "Chuanmei", is located in Chongqing, a municipality directly under the Central Government. It is a provincial undergraduate university with the right to award master's degrees. The school is one of the 31 independently established general higher art colleges in China, one of the eight major art colleges in China, and a national model university for deepening the reform of innovation and entrepreneurship education. [1]The college was founded in 1940 as Sichuan Provincial Art College; at the end of 1950, it was renamed Chengdu Art College. In 1953, it merged with Southwest People's Academy of Art and became Southwest Art College; in 1959, it was renamed Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts.

We went to the Sichuan Fine Arts New Campus (Huangjueping Campus)

It feels like a small family, but this head.

When is the salary increase?

Follow the gourd and entertain yourself while traveling.

There is a golden house in the book!

The famous Liziba Station felt the rail transit passing through houses. It didn't get off the station, just felt that the speed was much slower before entering the station, and looked at the river view along the way.

My wife loves Shancheng Tangyuan and glutinous rice balls most, my daughter loves Li Ji string strings most, and I love both of them most!

On the ninth day (2019.8.7), the four mountain roads to Yichang were unexpected surprises!

After passing through Enshi, I completely gave up the principle of never climbing mountains again.

After descending from the Shanghai-Chongqing Expressway, I climbed four mountains to the Fanba Expressway and entered Yichang. It was precisely thisThe beautiful scenery of the four mountain roads is still unforgettable, and I feel like I am in the clouds.

A total of 8 mountains have been crossed this time. Whoever drives will know the fun of driving on mountain roads.

Suggestion:

The mountain road travels slowly.

The best strategy is to follow the car, especially at night: Last summer, I followed the local cars on the night mountain road from Chaka Salt Lake to Qinghai Lake, avoiding sight and blind spots on the road.

It's a pity that the mobile phone couldn't capture the beauty of the time, so it could only be reflected in my mind.

The old version of the mobile phone had limited pixels and failed to capture the beauty of the time, but this one was still affirmed by my wife.

Parking for a rest for some unknown reason, my daughter came down immediately and looked in the mirror. I hurriedly took out my mobile phone and took N photos. Surprises during the journey are sometimes as simple as that. This is the best photo taken secretly, but it will draw the girl's eyes when she turns around.

It happened that day on the seventh day, and my wife and I also had an interactive memorial.

Theme: Heart to Heart

Planner: I

Model: I + Mrs.

Lighting engineer and photographer: daughter.

The 15-yuan seaweed kimbau on the third floor of Wanda Plaza was super delicious. After his wife went downstairs, she went back and bought two. The name was: Breakfast will be ready tomorrow, but it will be gone that night.

Consider taking a boat at the Three Gorges Visitor Center (Opposite Wanda Plaza)It's about ten minutes 'walk on board the boat. It's convenient, fast and comfortable. This is the reason why I like to book express hotels. After all, I spend most of my time on sightseeing. The booking criteria are different from those for vacation-style tourism, and it can save a lot of money.

Day 10 (2019.8.8) Two dams and one gorge tour (Three Gorges Tour, Gezhouba, Three Gorges Dam)

Boat recommendations:

1. During summer vacation, it is still the best route to and from the boat. In the afternoonthree GorgesThe temperature on the dam is too high.

2. There are also free seats at the end of the second floor of the cruise ship, not only on the first floor.

3. If you choose to book a private room, you must go to the west side, where most of the beautiful scenery is here.

4. A four-story open view is the best, with an extra fee of 40 yuan per person, but it's a bit hot during the summer.

Gezhouba experienced the rising tide passing through the gate.

Why is the Yangtze River like the Yellow River? The only thing that remains unchanged is this five-star red flag, long live the motherland!

An air-conditioned room is still the most leisurely viewing.

The escalator going up to the observation deck saves effort.

The Three Gorges Dam is located in Sandouping Town, Yichang City, Hubei Province, China, 38 kilometers away from the downstream Gezhouba Water Conservancy Project. It is the main project of the Three Gorges Hydropower Station, the core landscape of the Three Gorges Dam tourist area, and the eastern end of the Three Gorges Reservoir, the world's largest hydropower project. The Three Gorges Dam project consists of two parts: the main building and the diversion project. It has a total length of about 3335 meters and a dam crest elevation of 185 meters. The total investment of the project is 95.46 billion yuan. Construction was officially started on December 14, 1994, and the entire line was successfully built on May 20.

When I arrived, the Three Gorges Dam was opening its gates to release water.

Behind the fountain is viewing platform 185.

The ship has to pass the gate through these five steps

Originally, she found the reflection in the water behind her, so her daughter broke in and took one.

Having nothing to do, secretly filming two people ordering food through a glass

I was discovered, but my eyes were bigger than mine, haha!

Day 11 (2019.8.9）

Originally, I planned to go to Hefei to play again and go home. Unexpectedly, the typhoon forecast and my family's worries, I decided to leave home early in the morning. It took 12.5 hours to get home safely at 912 kilometers that day, setting a new record of more than 800 kilometers a day on the Qinggan Grand Loop Road last year.

Arriving home safely, I am greeted by the afterglow every time I return home.

Although driving is harder, I like the family to sit in the car and chat all the way. As the years go by, recalling the happiness of every trip is enough to cherish it for a lifetime! In 17 years, Mount Tai, Jinan, Luoyang, and Dengfeng were 2300 kilometers; in 18 years, the family drove Hangzhou, Anhui Xiaochuan-Tibet Line, Qinghai-Gansu Grand Ring Road, 3200 kilometers, Huangshan, Huai 'an; in early 19, Xiamen, this time Chongqing. Sometimes the time on the road reminds me of it. Enjoy it with your eyes and feel it with your body. The unexpected scenery during your trip is still fresh in your memory.

Arrived home safely at 7 p.m., the journey was 3275 kilometers without a single violation. The driver who has been more than 20 years is not a fake.

The little donkey accompanied us on every trip, traveling all over the country: Suzhou, Wuxi, Hangzhou, Changzhou, Huzhou, Gaoyou, Nantong, Xuancheng, Huangshan City, Huai 'an, Tai' an, Jinan, Luoyang, Dengfeng, Xiamen, Nanping, Wuhan, Zhangjiajie City, Chongqing, Yichang。
After all the ups and downs, we also hope that we can set foot on every inch of the motherland in the days to come.

See you next time!
