(There is also an unknown flower 🌸 wall at the entrance of Guangwu Mountain, right at the entrance of the scenic spot, which is very fresh and cute) ✅ Playing in the water: When the weather is a little warmer, you can come and play in the water. The natural river water is ice-cold, but be careful not to catch a cold. Water play spot recommendations: Guangwu Mountain: 🉑 Beigoukou, 🉑 Lianghekou Micang Mountain: 🉑 Black Bear Valley ✅ Hiking: Guangwu Mountain is famous for its good mountains ⛰️, good water, good air, and good scenery 🍃. Hike while feeling the negative oxygen ions of nature. The recommended hiking route is the Yanziling route (starting from Sandaoguan), which is friendly to both the elderly and children.

#Mainland Travel Guangwu Mountain in Bazhong is like falling into the private palette of spring🎨 Under the gentle caress of the sunlight, the outlines of the peaks and forests appear looming, like a dream. The winding stream under your feet gurgles, the lively waves reflect the colorful trees on the shore, and every ripple is dyed with the poetic beauty of autumn. Walking through it, you seem to be able to hear the footsteps of history. The ancient plank roads tell stories of the past, and every stone slab is engraved with traces of time. The red leaves all over the mountains are like the gorgeous clothes that nature puts on the earth. The layers of colors are wantonly and strong, as if to ignite the whole autumn🔥 The spring in Guangwu Mountain is an interweaving of nature and history, a double feast for the eyes and the soul that will make you intoxicated and unable to return.

The poetic and idyllic scenes in our friends' social media posts are, after all, someone else's story. Only by experiencing it ourselves can we appreciate the beauty of the world that is unique to us. So, a spontaneous trip was born, without too much planning, just enjoying the scenery wherever we go. We traveled over 800 kilometers, arriving first at the Zhouzhi Water Street Yanhuo Alley. Here, small bridges and flowing water resemble lines of poetry, while the grey tiles and colorful lanterns look like a painting. During the day, it exudes an ancient charm, quiet and simple; at night, neon lights flicker, draping the water street in a gorgeous coat. Amidst the glittering lights, it's like a guest dressed to the nines, dazzling and eye-catching. The vibrant atmosphere is not only about the people and the scenery, but also the food. The water street at night is full of life, while during the day, after shedding its glamorous attire, it gains tranquility but loses some of its bustling ambiance. From Zhouzhi, we followed the Meitai Line, passing through Gaojiang Road and the most beautiful mountain villages along the way. Unfortunately, we arrived a little early, before the peak season, and missed the spectacular scenery of the colorful forests, leaving a slight regret in our hearts. We must come back in late autumn to immerse ourselves in that captivating beauty. In the evening, we settled in Liuba County. An old street in the county town, brightly lit, has become a popular spot for tourists. The Qinling Mountains divide the south and the north. Starting from Hunan, we passed through Hubei and then to Shaanxi, enjoying the autumn scenery around the Qinling Mountains. There are many scenic spots worth visiting along the way, especially the Zibai Mountain winding road from National Highway G316 to Liuba County. The S-shaped bends are numerous and steep, perfect for experienced drivers. However, friends with less driving experience should prioritize safety and choose carefully. From Liuba County, we headed south to Guangwu Mountain, a 5A scenic spot in Nanjiang County, Sichuan Province. Despite the unfavorable weather and drizzle, it didn't dampen our spirits for sightseeing. The autumn wind swept through, scattering fallen leaves, and the red leaves felt as familiar as old friends. When we left Guangwu Mountain, the rain was still falling, and the mountain air was exceptionally fresh, shrouded in mist. We were in the car, driving through the fog, a beautiful scene difficult to capture with a phone, so we etched it deeply in our minds. Continuing our journey, we arrived at Enyang Ancient Town. Here, we dined, checked in, and toured the ancient town. Besides its commercial atmosphere, the ancient town is also filled with the rich local life. Scenes of friends gathering around a stove for tea, ear cleaning, and playing mahjong are common. Both locals and tourists can easily blend in. After the tour, we drove for over two hours to Dazhou, our destination for the third day. After settling into our accommodation, we went to Luofu Square for a hearty dinner, concluding a fulfilling day. From Dazhou, we headed to Pengshui Miao and Tujia Autonomous County in Chongqing. We made a brief stop at Wulong on the way, but since the scenic spot's parking lot was full, we abandoned our plans to visit and went straight to Pengshui Chiyou Jiuli City. This is not a popular attraction, so there weren't many tourists. It is the largest Miao traditional architectural complex in China. The Jiuli Divine Pillar is the tallest and largest Miao totem pole in the world, and the Jiuli Palace is the tallest and largest stilt house in the world. Looking out from a high vantage point, the mountains are shrouded in mist, and the unique architectural style offers a distinctive charm. When visiting a city, besides admiring the scenery, tasting the local cuisine is a must. In Pengshui, we found a highly-rated restaurant online called Zaodongjia. After navigating a maze of streets, we arrived at the restaurant and found it incredibly busy, requiring reservations in advance. After a long discussion with the owner, we were finally given an outdoor table. However, the food here was delicious and affordable, highly recommended. In Pengshui, there is also a forgotten scenic spot called Ayi River. Surrounded by mountains and flowing rivers, it integrates mountains, water, forests, springs, and canyons, combining grandeur, wonder, danger, beauty, and tranquility, making it an ideal place to escape the summer heat. Although drifting is not possible in this season, strolling along the river reveals crystal-clear water, lush vegetation shrouded in mist, cliffs and rocks of various shapes, and waterfalls cascading down the mountains, seemingly able to cure all worries. Gongtan Ancient Town, next to the Wujiang Gallery, is a 4A-level scenic spot. Built along the water, the wooden stilt houses offer the best views of the river. During the day, it's a commercial street for tourists; at night, the bright lights adorn the ancient town in a splendid attire, making it exceptionally beautiful. In Youyang, Chongqing, the Dieshi Flower Valley is filled with Muhlenbergia capillaris, swaying in the wind like a pink sea of flowers, creating a romantic atmosphere. The pink and rosy scenery seems to dispel all the regrets of autumn, making people believe that all good things will come unexpectedly. During the trip, each city has its unique scenery and customs. Whether we can appreciate and blend in varies from person to person, but the food is definitely not to be missed. During the seven-day National Day holiday, we started from Hunan, passed through Hubei, Shaanxi, Sichuan, and Chongqing, and then returned to Hunan. This spontaneous trip, with its on-the-go planning, emphasized spontaneity and freedom. Despite the less-than-ideal weather, it didn't affect our enjoyment at all. We climbed mountains, crossed rivers, enjoyed the autumn scenery, admired the colorful foliage, stayed in hotels and guesthouses, tasted local delicacies, and visited many niche but beautiful attractions. It was undoubtedly a joyful and memorable journey.

Arriving at the B&B, the first thing that catches your eye is the rows of neatly arranged The wooden house blends seamlessly with the surrounding green mountains and clear waters. The design of the homestay cleverly incorporates local natural elements. Natural materials such as logs, bamboo, and stone can be seen everywhere, creating a rustic and warm atmosphere. I booked a room with mountain view. When I opened the door, the spacious and bright space was eye-catching. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows are rolling green hills that seem to be within reach. The layout of the room is simple yet stylish. Solid wood furniture and cotton and linen bedding all reveal a natural feel. What surprised me most was that the room also had an open-air balcony. When night fell, I lay on the lounge chair and looked up to see the bustling sky. star. The restaurant at the B&B is equally impressive. The restaurant specializes in local specialties, and the ingredients are all taken from the mountains, fresh and healthy. The bamboo shoots, mushrooms and wild vegetables in Guangwu Mountain are turned into delicious dishes after being skillfully cooked by chefs. I especially like the dish of bamboo shoots fried with bacon. The bamboo shoots are fresh and tender, and the bacon is salty and fragrant. The two are a perfect match. In addition to comfortable accommodation and delicious meals, the B&B also provides a variety of leisure and entertainment activities. I experienced the hot spring in the B&B, soaked in the warm spring water, and looked at the mountain scenery in the distance. My body and mind were greatly relaxed. In addition, the homestay also has a study room, tea room, yoga room, etc. The homestay is surrounded by Guangwu Mountain Scenic Area, which has rich natural resources and cultural landscapes. I hiked through the primeval forest, breathing the fresh air and feeling the wonders of nature. We also visited the Huimi Cang Ancient Road and felt the charm of ancient Bashu culture.

In the northeast of Sichuan, there is a place favored by time - Guangwu Mountain in Bazhong. When the cold wind blows, it turns into a fairy tale world covered in snow, a dreamlike place not to be missed in Sichuan in winter. Stepping into Guangwu Mountain is like stepping into a fairyland sealed by snow. The rolling mountains are covered with thick snow, like a giant cream cake carefully carved by nature, with gentle curves outlined by every rise and fall. The peaks are looming in the clouds, intertwined with white snow, like a dream, making it hard to tell whether it is reality or a painting. The trees in the mountains are also dressed in white, with branches bent by the snow, like strings of crystal clear crystal bead curtains, swaying gently in the breeze, making a crisp and pleasant sound, as if the snow elves are singing softly. The sun shines down, and the snowflakes sparkle with fine light, making the whole mountain forest shine, beautiful and breathtaking. Walking along the winding mountain road, the snow under your feet makes a "creaking" sound, as if playing a unique movement for this winter trip. In the distance, the waterfall freezes into a huge ice waterfall in the cold temperature, hanging down from the cliffs, like frozen time, or like a giant sculpture created by nature with ice and snow, majestic and full of artistic sense. Here, you can have fun in the snow, build snowmen, have snowball fights, and relive the joy of childhood; or you can sit quietly on the viewing platform, enjoy the endless snow scene, and let your soul find a moment of peace in this pure world. If you are tired of the hustle and bustle of the city, come to Guangwu Mountain in Bazhong, and find the long-lost beauty in the snow scene, and let the winter of Guangwu Mountain become an unforgettable winter poem in your memory.
