From the three theme routes of Hongling Highway, it is not difficult to see that it has become a popular destination in go on road trip, not only because of the natural scenery of Dabie Mountain itself, but also because of Jinzhai's unique "red" tourism. We should know that Jinzhai is the second largest general county in China, where there have been 59 founding generals, and it is a famous old revolutionary base area. There are many people and history worth remembering in this hot land.
Therefore, the three-day self-driving tour of Jinzhai Hongling Highway did not miss the natural scenery and human history connected in series along the way. Our itinerary is as follows:
DAY 1: Hubei, Henan and Anhui Red Army Memorial Park, Red Army Square, Xiqiao Valley, Hongling Highway Lianhua Mountain and Shilixi;
The next day: He Yanzi Grand Canyon, Tiantangzhai (front Committee of Liu Dengjun), Mazongling and Dawan Village;
Day 3: Zhu Shi Temple in Banzhu Garden, Wanxing Village, Nanxi Dawang Temple in Tonghuihong Town, Tiechong Township.
Because there are so many places to go, here are some natural landscapes and red scenic spots that are most worth punching in.
Hongling highway is very long. Where should we go to enjoy the natural scenery? Lianhua Mountain and Mazongling, which cross the Matian line, are both very good destinations. Although the two places are not together, because the scenery and characteristics are similar, I think it is not against my will to introduce them together.
In other words, if you want to go deep into the Red Ridge roundabout and don't know how to get there, you can use these two scenic spots on the Martin roundabout as navigation points and search directly on the map software. We should pay great attention to safety when driving on winding mountain roads. As can be seen from the aerial photos, the mountain road is nine bends, and you have to slow down when you encounter it. Moreover, expressway is a two-lane city, so tourists must not park their cars on the road for sightseeing, which will affect the traffic. There are parking lots and observation decks on the expressway at regular intervals for tourists to enjoy the scenery and take photos.
Mazongling is located at the end of Martin Road and the core of Tianma National Nature Reserve. Visitors can park their cars at the entrance and then walk into the scenic spot to get a close look at the autumn scenery of Dabie Mountain. If what we appreciate on the observation deck is the agitation of expressway, this is the beauty of the details in autumn in Jinzhai.
In addition, you need to pay attention to two points when driving on Hongling Highway. First, although autumn scenery is beautiful, it is also the top priority of forest fire prevention. No matter how you enter the forest area, it is forbidden to carry kindling. At the entrance of expressway and some natural scenic spots, tourists will be required to scan the QR code and fill in the fire prevention commitment letter.
Secondly, Martin Highway is suitable for private cars to drive in road trip, but it is not only for driving, but also suitable for many motorcycle and mountain bike enthusiasts to ride through. Compared with driving, their efforts deserve our admiration, but they are also relatively weak groups. Therefore, when driving, you should pay more attention to avoiding, so that you can drive without looking at the scenery and be full of energy.
You can also remember the entrances and exits at both ends of Martin Highway. If it's from Jinzhai County, start from the Red Army Square. If you come by car from other places, such as Wuhan and Hefei, you can get off the Gubei Expressway toll station and enter at high speed.
Chinese people have always loved tea, and Jinzhai is a big tea-producing county. Affected by the southeast monsoon, Jinzhai is rainy and foggy, with an annual rainfall of about 65,438+800 mm The unique climatic conditions are conducive to the formation and accumulation of tea inclusions. "One of the top ten famous teas in China", Lu 'an melon chips have the best quality, especially in Jinzhai County. Xicha Valley, which is connected in series by Hongling Highway, is a scenic tea garden located in Mianchong Village, Youfangdian Township.
Xicha Valley is open to tourists free of charge. At present, there are hydrophilic trails, scenic suspension bridges across Kuwan 136m, xianghongdian reservoir and floating docks. Promenade, pavilion, etc. It is also skillfully integrated into the tea garden, which is a very good choice for leisure viewing or mountaineering exploration. The most important thing is not to forget to have a cup of Luan melon slices between this good water and tea.
He Yanzi Grand Canyon is not far from Tiantangzhai Scenic Area, and it is also a rare natural landscape in the local area, which can be a good supplement to Tiantangzhai. The canyon stretches continuously and is famous for its dangerous cliffs, strange rocks, deep valleys and beautiful water. There are two ways to enter the scenic spot, one is to take the scenic bus from the tourist center, and the other is to take the slide. The second way is highly recommended, which is novel and fun. Every car is stuck on the track of the slide, which is exciting and safe, and you can also enjoy the beautiful scenery in the mountains dynamically.
In the rugged Yanzihe Grand Canyon, it seems that all the colors of Dabie Mountain are hidden! This canyon is about 4800 meters long, and then you can walk along the wooden plank road. Although the distance sounds long, the mood of watching the scenery is different. Rich scenery can eliminate the fatigue of hiking, and the design of almost never looking back makes the whole line not feel tired at all.
The Swallow River Grand Canyon in this season makes me feel like I am in a scenic spot in a fairy tale world. Although there is some water shortage, it also exposes the natural strange stones, all kinds of stone patterns and caves here, as if they were like another planet.
Hubei, Henan and Anhui Memorial Park is one of the richest red tourist attractions in Jinzhai, which mainly integrates site display, historical deeds display and revolutionary traditional education. At present, there are seven main sightseeing projects in the park, namely, the former site of the military and political organs of the Red 25th Army, the former site of the military and political organs of the Red 28th Army, the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression Historical Exhibition Hall, the Jinzhai County Historical Relics Museum, the Liuhuo Uprising Site, the Red Army Museum and the Hushi Temple (the meeting place of the Red 25th Army and the Red 28th Army). These venues are patriotic education bases that are open to tourists free of charge, but it should be noted that they are closed every Monday.
Jinzhai County is located in the border area of Hubei, Henan and Anhui. It can be seen from these venues that its revolutionary history is very long. During the Agrarian Revolution, the Long Summer Festival Uprising and Liuhuo Uprising broke out successively in the territory, which was the main source and outbreak place of three revolutionary armed uprisings in Hubei, Henan and Anhui, and also the main creation place and regional center of the revolutionary base areas in Hubei, Henan and Anhui. History is too long to be explained in a few words. This time, I traveled with a learning attitude, recorded a lot of notes and pictures, and slowly digested them when I came back. In short, there is really a lot of revolutionary history here.
If you are in a hurry to travel to Jinzhai and there is only one red scenic spot to go to, then I will definitely recommend you to the Red Army Square. The square is located in the urban area of Jinzhai County, which integrates towers, pavilions, churches, monuments, tombs and squares. It is a national 4A-level tourist attraction, and has many honorary titles such as national key martyrs memorial building protection unit, national patriotic education demonstration base, national red tourism classic scenic spot and national defense education base.
The Red Army Square Scenic Spot in Jinzhai County includes six scenic spots, including the Revolutionary Martyrs Memorial Tower, the Revolutionary Museum in Jinzhai County, the Tomb of the Red Army Martyrs, the Red Army Square, the General Hong Xuezhi Monument and the Red Army Memorial Hall in Jinzhai County. Here you can climb to the top of the mountain and see the scenery of Jinzhai County. You can also remember the martyrs and experience today's hard-won life.
When I came to the Red Army Square, I strongly recommended Jinzhai County Revolutionary Museum. If the memorial garden in front of Hubei, Henan and Anhui is the most abundant red tourist scenic spot in Jinzhai, then the revolutionary science popularization in this revolutionary museum will be more concentrated and comprehensive, and ordinary tourists will understand and understand the timeline more easily while listening to the explanation.
The same is true of revolutionary history, so I won't go into details here. What impressed me the most in the Revolutionary Museum was an exhibition hall that concentrated on 59 founding generals in Jinzhai County, and a personal exhibition hall of General Hong Xuezhi. I am also interested in its legendary life.
General Hong Xuezhi/KLOC-0 joined the revolution in March, 929. During his revolutionary career, he took Ma Keqin as the company commander at the age of 19, participated in the Long March, Liaoshen Campaign, Pingjin Campaign, and the battle to cross the river, and served as the logistics command to resist US aggression and aid Korea across the Yalu River, with numerous honors throughout his life. About the twists and turns, legends and colorful life experiences of General Hong Xuezhi, a 29-level TV series was released on 20 19. Interested friends can search for General Hong Xuezhi.
Dawang Temple is located in the southeast of Dingjiabu Street, Nanxi Town, Jinzhai County. Initially, it was a hall dedicated to the Dragon King and a trading place where businessmen gathered. Later, as the origin of the famous "Long Summer Festival Uprising", it played an important role in the history of the development of the Hubei, Henan and Anhui revolutions. Now the King Temple is already a state-level cultural relics protection unit, and it is a red scenic spot with great weight in the local area.
There is a lifelike statue in the square in front of the King's Temple, which shows the long Summer Uprising. We should know that the Long Summer Festival Uprising was an armed peasant movement in Nanxi, Wujiadian, Baisha River, Banzhuyuan, Wenchang Palace, Tang Jiahui, Li Jiaji and Xihe in Jinzhai County. Accurately speaking, Wang Temple can't be called the former site of the Long Summer Festival Uprising, but the concept of "origin".
Autumn in Jinzhai is a beautiful scenery in western Anhui, and the red leaves in the mountains are beautiful. It is also one of the cradles of the Chinese Red Army of Workers and Peasants, and an excellent tourist destination for "red" tourism. The whole trip was shocked by the beautiful scenery and the heroic deeds in the revolutionary war. At the same time, I feel great, and I feel that today's beautiful life is commendable.
Moreover, "Red" seems to be particularly attached to Jinzhai, and this "Red" ridge highway is really worthy of the name!
