Guanshan Geopark is located at the arc-shaped turning point of the southern Taihang. Therefore, there is a wedge-shaped pass called "one man is in charge, ten thousand people are not allowed to open it", which is known as the third of the eight paths of Taihang. Suitable for sunset, Zixia shot, brilliant, known as Zixia pass. This pass began before the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period. As for the Ming Dynasty, this pass has always been a strategic fortress in history, hence the name Guanshan. The long geological evolution and intense crustal movement have created the beautiful scenery of Southern Taihang.

Looking from the north of the plain, it looks like a giant stone screen rising from the ground, like a copper wall and iron wall, imposing great momentum, creating the soul of Taihang"; "rock heavy cliff superimposed inscription, land and sea changes, Taihang history volume, landslides and water erosion carvings."

The local people of Qinglong mountain, also known as Gushan and gushangang, is more than 150 meters high and covers an area of more than 540 mu. The mountain is covered with a variety of wild Artemisia, lush. It stretches more than ten hills to the southeast to the Chaohe River, and extends to the southwest along the river. The total length is more than 40 Li. The local people call it "huangshagang, 45 Li". Standing on the top of Qinglong mountain and looking to the southeast, you can see that there are dozens of miles of rolling and luxuriant trees, like a huge green dragon lying on its back. This peak is the head of a dragon with high head. It seems that Qinglong mountain may come from this.

It is said that Qinglong mountain is the carrier of journey to the west, and Ciyun Temple is the soul of journey to the West. The inscriptions on the Ciyun Temple record that Xuanzang, returning from Buddhist scriptures, was ordered to rebuild the Ciyun Temple and spread the Dharma in the Ciyun Temple of Qinglong mountain for many years. It is said that Wu Chengen came here to visit Xuanzang in order to create a journey to the West. He was attracted by the strange peaks, rocks and beautiful scenery of Qinglong mountain. In addition, he lived here for a long time and collected a lot of creative materials. Up to now, a large number of folk tales spread in Qinglong mountain are the prototype of the story in journey to the West. In recent years, a stone kiln site with the word "Wu" engraved on the door has been found near the Ciyun Temple in recent years.

Borden Forest Park

Bolden Forest Park, 15 minutes' drive from Jigong Mountain, is a scenic spot outside Jigong Mountain, but it is also worth visiting. The "foreign name" of the largest Taxodium Forest Park in China is to commemorate the British Forester William? It was in 1917 that he successfully introduced Larix gmelinii from North America to Xinyang. Since then, there have been many and beautiful Larix forests and forest parks. All the Taxodium in our country has a close relationship with Mr. Borden. So it seems that his title of "father of fallen feather fir" is not too much.

Borden Forest Park's main tourist area is connected by wooden plank road, stone road and dirt path, which creates a completely natural interest and greatly protects the natural environment. Walking along the wooden stack, walking in the towering forest of Taxodium ascendens, I can feel these tall and straight plants blocking out the sun, isolating the polluted air from the canopy completely, creating a green world full of birds and insects, and a completely private green world. Suddenly, there is the illusion of Alice in the Jungle Wonderland. On the ground between trees are all kinds of flowers and plants that I can't name. Their common feature is extremely exuberant and dense. [tips]

Along the way, the first one to arrive is Taohua Bay. As far away in the mountains, spring comes late, flowers bloom and wither later than at the foot of the mountain. At this time, peach blossom in taohuawan is in full bloom. The bees and butterflies in the flowers are busy playing, while the peach blossom and the spring are in contrast. They show not only the charm of the valley, but also the beautiful resonance between nature and tourists. Leaving Taohua Bay and going upstream along the canyon, there are artificial dikes all the way. Water blocking into a pool, water flooding into a waterfall, large and small, pouring down, very lively, Tianhe waterfall is at the end of the canyon.

dear! Have you ever seen the bamboo sea more beautiful than Shunan? My friends want to see why the bamboo sea needs to go to the south of Sichuan. The mountains and rivers can reappear the beautiful scenery of bamboo forest. Can you make it in Henan Province? It is chongdu ditch, which has 800 Mu dense bamboo forest, and is known as "the best in the north". Driving for three and a half hours, you can get to chongdu ditch in Beiguo water town. Its name is related to Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Liu Xiu crossed the Yishui river two times to get rid of Wang Mang's pursuit, and achieved the emperor's business and got its name. Historical legends and the fascinating scenery of the scenic spot make it one of the favorite destinations in the hearts of little friends.

For the general lack of water in northern scenic spots, chongdu ditch, which is rich in water resources, is the envy of many northern scenic spots. Here, the clear Lanxi stream formed by hundreds of springs gushes out from the high gorge and deep valley, forming a high gorge waterfall. Such a beautiful scenery can be called a wonder. If you want to see the bamboo forest, as long as you are in the "didcui River", you can see 10000 mu of green bamboo forest. The climate here is suitable, the land is fertile, especially suitable for the growth of bamboo, so it seems to be in the green wave here. If you look at the whole mountain, it is almost covered with bamboo. It is green, rippling with the wind and blue waves. It is really pleasing to the eyes and relaxed. If you compare it with the bamboo sea in southern Sichuan, I'm afraid it's too much.
