Shaoyang Longhui is rich in natural landscape resources such as mountains, waters, waterfalls, lakes and forests. There are hundreds of scenic spots such as the former residence of Wei Yuan, a national key cultural relics protection unit, and Xiangjia Village, a demonstration village in beautiful countryside, Hunan Province. Let's begin to express my findings in this trip one by one!
Xiangjia Village, Yankou Town, Longhui County, Shaoyang, Hunan Province is a "demonstration village in beautiful countryside, Hunan Province" and a "demonstration village for poverty alleviation through tourism". Niutianling observation deck is located at the commanding height of Niutianling tourist landscape, more than 700 meters above sea level, which is the best location for viewing. But it's super cool to take an aerial photo of 500 meters overlooking the whole Xiangjia Village! Absolutely shocking! The mountains and peaks are green, the mountains and rivers set each other off, and the scenery is infinite!
Some people say that Moon Lake is like a bull's head, and it really looks like it from this angle! Echoing the name of "Niu Tian Ling", it shows the spirit of "pioneering cow" with selflessness, diligence and courage. The island is full of cherry trees. Imagine that when cherry blossoms are in full bloom in March, they must be very beautiful!
There is a unique aircraft design Niutianling Cultural Square, which is located on the Niutianling observation deck, with an altitude of more than 700 meters. It is a cultural square with an area of about 2000 square meters, which integrates leisure viewing, camping experience and amusement. At the eastern end, there is a bronze "pioneer cow", which is the landmark attraction of the cultural square. You must punch in!
Punching in is still going on ... This rainbow slide is very popular among young people and children. It has bright spots in length, drop and fluctuation, and it is very safe. It is one of the few rainbow slides I have ever played, and I won't get tired of sliding for more than ten times.
The celebrity train on the Internet is also very popular with tourists, and they are sightseeing around the mountains. Special suggestion: when you first arrive here, take a comfortable train and listen to the tour guide explain the distribution of scenic spots and various amusement facilities, so that you know what you are doing, and then go to free activities, which will make the play more complete!
It is about 3 kilometers from the entrance of Xiangjia village to the top of the mountain, which fully proves a truth: if you want to be rich, build roads first! A well-built mountain road can really bring some excitement to drivers. Although the road is tortuous and the slope is undulating, the intersection of the two lanes is safe! People and alleys are separated, and there are several small pavilions on the top of the mountain, which is a good place to enjoy the cool and summer. You can enjoy the scenery in the pavilion!
There are many parent-child parks, children's parks and water parks here, which fully meet the needs of family travel and entertainment. Playing with water in summer is not just for children. Adults prefer places with water. Have fun, learning water is the most important thing. Effectively cultivating children's practical ability and creativity is not only conducive to the healthy growth of children, but also enhances the feelings between children and their parents.
I like football since I was a child. When I saw such a football field in aerial photography, I was so excited that I quickly flew to the sky to see the area. Originally, Xiangjiacun Development Center has four obstacle courses for teenagers A, B, C and D, sand pools, tree pools and other venue facilities, including high-altitude projects, semi-high-altitude projects, venue projects, and natural environment utilization theme projects. This development center is the outdoor base camp with the most fashionable concept, the most advanced equipment, the most complete projects and the most exciting gameplay I have ever seen.
You should try the food of Niutianling farmhouse in Xiangjia village. The ingredients are self-produced pollution-free agricultural and sideline products, including native chicken, native duck, native goose, fragrant pork, beef and mutton and various seasonal vegetables. Special dishes mainly include: steamed chicken with chestnut, fried bacon with bamboo shoots, fragrant pork with oil but not greasy, steamed goose with rice noodles and a series of farm stir-fry.
Tiger-shaped Mountain Flower Yao Scenic Area is located on an alpine platform with an average elevation of 1.300 meters. The highest temperature in summer is 27 degrees, which is rated as the best summer resort in China by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs. It is also the main venue of the Hunan Summer Rural Cultural Tourism Festival just held in 2020. The main ethnic group living in the scenic spot is Huayao, whose religious beliefs, customs, languages, costumes and other cultures are unique, and its rough and unique folk customs, national culture and art and gorgeous flower-picking costumes are unique in Gu Zhuo.
There are more than 320 ancient trees in Chongmudang Village, of which 28 are over 300 years old. The oldest trees are over 65,438+0,000 years old, and Cyclobalanopsis glauca and Quercus variabilis are the most. They are highly mixed and evergreen all the year round. There is also a forest monument, which was banned in the ninth year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty.
The king of this tree is over 1000 years old. Under normal circumstances, the tree king will not bear fruit, but once it bears fruit, the village's harvest achievement will be bad. Therefore, for a long time, villagers have developed the habit of going to the Woods to worship the tree king every festival or major event, praying that the tree king will not bear fruit. From this, we can see that the villagers admire this ancient forest!
Walking along the platform, I met a pair of "lovers' trees" which grew from two different trees. The roots of two trees are connected together, just like a pair of lovers hugging each other tightly. According to legend, the intermarriage between Yao and Han is also inspired by these two trees! Therefore, the local people have a complex about ancient trees, which once became a place for Huayao youth to sing.
Wei Yuan's former residence is located on the sandbar of Tang Xue Bay, Simen Town, Longhui County, Shaoyang, Hunan Province. It is a wooden quadrangle with two fronts and two sides. There is a wooden trough door in front of the courtyard, surrounded by dry earth walls, forming an independent courtyard, and the surrounding environment is leisurely and quiet, which makes people yearn for rural life.
From 65438 to 0794, Wei Yuan, a famous patriotic thinker, historian and writer in China's modern history, was born here. Today, Wei Yuan's former residence was announced by the State Council as a national key cultural relic protection unit and the first batch of patriotic education bases in Hunan Province. Above the lintel, there is a wooden plaque of "Wei Yuan's Former Residence" with gold lettering on a black background, and on both sides are the door couplets written by Wei Yuan, "The sandbar belongs to the clear water, and the bright moon shines on the golden pool".
Wei Yuan's former residence was built in the early years of Qing Qianlong. The two main rooms and the left wing are bungalows with a single eaves hanging from the top of the mountain and covered with small blue tiles. The main room is five rooms wide and two rooms deep; The left wing is five rooms wide and two rooms deep. The right wing is a two-story building with seven rooms wide and four rooms deep. The bottom five rooms are all barns with stairwells at both ends.
In the exhibition hall on the first floor, the bulletin board tells the story of Wei Yuan's experience and life-long works (Wu Sheng Ji, Gu Wei, New Edition of Yuan History, Original Meaning of Laozi, Wei, Chunqiu Zhu, etc.). There is a bust of Wei Yuan with a map of the world on the back wall, which is taken from his book.
It is rare that the main building is complete and the old objects in every room are preserved so completely. The layout of the pavilion is also elegant, and the flower carvings in the window flower beds are extremely beautiful! Woodcarving figures have not been cut down, but have been well protected and passed down! It is a local custom in Hunan Province to sacrifice the spirit tablet of the deceased in the entrance hall, which has been preserved to this day.
On the second floor is the reading building, with three lecture halls in the middle. The tables and stools in the lecture hall are still neatly arranged, and there is a study between the two ends. Wei Yuan spent his childhood and adolescence in this building. The stories of "occasionally going downstairs, dogs chasing you" and "obsessed with reading, zongzi dipped in ink" happened in this upstairs. From the desks and chairs, manuscripts and books left behind for reading, we can perceive the life scenes and social background of Wei Yuan in different periods.
Longhui Wang Xi Waterfall Group is the Hui Jia Wan Yao natural village where Tiger Mountain is located, and it is also one of the main landscapes of Huayao National Tourism Scenic Area. The mountain village was deeply hidden in the ravine, and was gradually demolished and rebuilt under the national policy of vigorously helping the poor. Now rows of neat houses with national characteristics are all rebuilt. Bamboo is spread all over the mountains, with high coverage rate, and it has also become the best place for people to travel in summer to cool off.
If you want to see the spectacular waterfalls, you need to climb mountains. The cobblestone ground is undulating and orderly, with few steps and safe guardrails, which makes people feel relaxed when climbing. You can also enjoy the bamboo sea scenery on the roadside while walking. Great, amazing!
Halfway through, a glass platform was built on the prominent cliff to cater to the needs of internet celebrities. It also suits the tastes of contemporary young people. The photos taken are like people walking in the mountains and clouds ... there is a slide on the line, which can directly see the waterfall, but there is also a trail on the left. Although the downhill will be slower, the scenery that can't be missed is also on this road.
There are Xianniutan, Jinzitan, Huiwantan, Tiger Jumping Cliff and Longdu River in the upper reaches, living next to each other. The walking distance is less than 10 minute, and the waterfall falls from a dozen meters to several hundred meters, each with its own characteristics. From the point of view of photography, slow door shooting is the way to present the most beautiful waterfall.
Because of the time, I only walked two waterfalls this time, but I was still attracted by the beautiful scenery ... shutter and angle, just want to present the most beautiful picture! It was so dark that I began to go down the mountain. On a thrilling trip, there were no tigers in the mountains. Later, I heard that there would be wild boar at night, and I was scared out in a cold sweat afterwards. Therefore, this is also a travel experience. Try to set aside a lot of time to play during the day, and try not to stay in scenic spots with forests for too long when it is dark. Safety comes first.
Although it's past the season of flowers blooming all over the mountains, in Yaogu, you can see seasonal flowers and plants on both sides of the road along the way. When the wind blows, you shake your head and tail, as if welcoming guests from afar, very close. Overlooking the whole scenic spot, the area is equally shocking! Several big windmills in the distance add a lot of color!
There are mountains, water and fun! Presumably, this is the favorite place for young people to play at present. Of course, it would be more perfect if they could stay in the wooden house for one night and meet the morning sun the next morning! Close-up scenic spots are also under construction, and go on road trip camp and log cabin are also under planning. I am looking forward to it!
The first "5D Glass Magpie Bridge" in Longyao Valley, Longhui, Hunan Province was officially opened in July 2065438+2009, and it has also become one of the must-see places for online celebrities! Therefore, tourists have come to experience the thrills and thrills of walking on the glass trestle ... and experience and take photos with your loved ones on the bridge!
No matter from bottom to top, or from top to bottom, this curved glass water slide first brings people a little psychological fear. Because of this, people want to break this psychological fear and have the desire to try! The moment I boarded the kayak, it was like being forced to ride a roller coaster, but I was relieved ... forget it! Don't hold back, saying it out loud is a kind of release! Empty your experience wholeheartedly, that is, for a moment.
What makes me most happy about this trip is that I can see such a boutique B&B. At the top of the 10,000-acre terraced field on the back of Xuefeng Mountain in Hunan at an altitude of more than 1000 meters, such as the Big Dipper descending from the earth, and seven alpine villas facing south, it is called the starry sky cloud house. Open the window to enjoy the fairyland scenery of terraced fields and sea of clouds! I also look forward to building more such boutique homestays in rural tourism in Hunan. It is very important to attract attention!
Overlooking the terraced fields, there are words such as "starry sky cloud house" and "terrace farm". This kind of high-altitude visual design also uses ideas, which is not only a feeling, but also gives people a sense of belonging visually! When I get here, what can I see, what can I do, what can I feel … Everything is here!
I like living in a homestay, and I want to find a sense of integration in most people who like to travel! Integrating into local life, culture and diet ... adds an unrepeatable stroke to your life experience. Each villa has 4-6 rooms, which can still meet the needs of most tourists except the independent bathroom on the first floor, and is suitable for a big family or several close friends to stay at weekends. This kind of B&B is rare in this area of Hunan, so the reservation has been arranged for two months. ...
Baishuidong Village in Longhui is a unique and important branch of Huayao in China, and it is also a national-level scenic spot integrating natural ecological scenery and Huayao folk culture. Under favorable weather, geographical location and human harmony, you can really enjoy the magnificent sunrise and terraced sea of clouds. There are old roads and new roads. If you travel by car and have good driving skills, you can try to take a new road. The road is well built, but the twists and turns are particularly challenging!
Terraces are located in rolling hills, so it takes some time to wait for the sun to rise, but as long as you wait patiently, you will cheer and shout for the moment when the light and shadow of Rizhao Jinshan gradually appear! It's like a shy girl, slowly lifting the veil to let you appreciate her beauty. ...
There are several observation decks in the village that are particularly good! In some places, you can see buildings with primitive Yaozhai style, which are distributed in terraced fields. In some places, you can see beautiful terraces on the landscape platforms built by Yao people. If you have a chance, you can try a special food made of Hunan's mountains and rivers and climate-sour bean rice flour/noodles, which will make you remember it in taste!
There is also a listing office for local photographers' associations and folk associations, which is convenient for members to collect opinions. In the exhibition room, there are some handicrafts, costumes and costumes reflecting local folk customs, photos of celebrities hanging on the walls, and the setting of long tables and chairs. Presumably, there are frequent meetings here.
You can also rent traditional Yao costumes and take beautiful photos for both men and women, and Yao beauties will help you put them on. Especially beautiful Yao costumes are all made by hand. If you really encounter a suit that you really like, it is also very good to buy it as a souvenir, because I have such a travel hobby and love handmade products all over the world! Like to collect!
It is impossible without spicy food. I believe that friends who like Hunan will fall in love with Hunan's spicy food. Pepper is put in almost every dish in Hunan. People who can eat spicy food like it very much, and people who can't eat spicy food will gradually fall in love with it! Among the traditional cuisines in Longhui, I want to say not only spicy, but also many dishes with local characteristics worth trying.
In addition to the well-known bacon, rice noodles and so on. Longhui native chicken, local duck and tofu with different methods are all local characteristics that can be eaten, and the taste is really different from other places! A bite of tofu is more tender and juicy than north tofu. Soybeans are good, the water is good, and they are made by traditional people. The most important thing is that Hunan people have enough patience in making tofu ... so why can we eat real stinky tofu in Hunan, but what we eat in other places is not authentic!
As for the staple food, we especially recommend handmade steamed buns, which look a bit like Shandong steamed buns, but the noodles are thinner, the honeycomb eyes are smaller, and the cake is sweet. When you touch the condensed milk in a small dish, you will suddenly like to eat steamed buns! A four-petal steamed bread can't stop ...
When you travel to Hunan, you should see the scenery. If you drive, you can visit some particularly beautiful villages on the road, because you will probably go to beautiful countryside Demonstration Village, where the folk customs are simple and the ecological environment is good, and many scenic spots can be excavated! Take a beautiful view!
A small mountain village, because a bridge has realized the road to wealth! This is Zhongzhou Village. I heard from friends who have been here before that all the people in this village are smiling and very simple ... I came here this time, and sure enough! Although there are some problems in language communication, we know from their actions and smiles that they welcome us and will take me to the village, and they will not refuse the camera. ...
Beautiful mountains and beautiful waters are even more beautiful! This is my evaluation of the demonstration village in beautiful countryside, Hunan! It is also the unremitting efforts of several generations of local villagers and the country's vigorous poverty alleviation policy that have made some poor villages in Hunan embark on the road to prosperity ... In my opinion, these places are hidden "Xanadu" in Hunan tourism, just waiting for you to discover!
Longhui County has a short history (founded in 1947), but it has a profound cultural background and rich intangible cultural heritage. As of 20 17, four intangible cultural heritages in this county have been listed in the national intangible cultural heritage list (beachhead woodblock New Year pictures, Huayao flower-picking, Huayao Wowa folk songs, and beachhead hand-made paper-making skills), and four intangible cultural heritages have been listed in the provincial intangible cultural heritage list (Huayao "begging for a bride", Huayao marriage customs, Qijiang charcoal fire dance and Wangxinglou).
This time, I visited "New Year Pictures of Beach Board" and "Hand-fried Paper Techniques on the Beach". Tantou New Year Picture is the only handmade woodblock watermark New Year Picture in Hunan Province, which was produced in Tantou Town (now Shaoyang City), Longhui County, Baoqing City, Hunan Province. Longhui Beach Head New Year Pictures were formed in Li Shimin era in Tang Dynasty, with a history of 1300 years. The Wedding of the Mouse, Qin Weichi Gong and Harmony are the classics in the beach New Year pictures.
From selecting paper-making raw materials, making paper and brushing the bottom, to carving, seven printing and seven hand-painting, it takes more than 20 processes to make a New Year picture. The water used in the color matching of beach New Year pictures is also very particular. The local groundwater is used to add some secret recipes, such as water (that is, water filtered out when people make tofu) and white clay, so as to make the color high, bright, breathable and long-stored. I believe you, like me, can't help but want to buy some for home collection. The price of a mouse wedding in 40 yuan is very close to the people! The album Cai 1400 yuan has collected many classic works!
With its bright red colors and rough and exaggerated shapes, Beach New Year pictures reflect farmers' simple, simple, healthy and optimistic thoughts and feelings and social phenomena, which has certain practical and theoretical value for the development of China's art creation and folk art. The mold used in painting, its carving skills are unprecedented meticulous! The craftsman spirit is admirable!
After talking about Beach New Year pictures, naturally, where did tracing paper come from? ! I think this is what most people want to hear ...14,14 In February, Li Zhijun, a native of Taolin Village, Longhui County, Hunan Province, was included in the fourth batch of national intangible cultural heritage representative projects. He is the 46th generation inheritor of "Ancient Fatan Handmade Paper". His workshop was also rebuilt in the original site, making it safer and more standardized.
The raw materials of beachhead manual papermaking technology are taken from bamboo unique to Hunan, and the production process has to go through more than 20 processes, which is quite complicated. Li Zhijun showed us one of the most important processes-papermaking, which is the key step to turn pulp into paper. Papermaking is a rectangular "carrying curtain" similar to a screen. The papermaker pushes the curtain forward with his hand, then sinks it into the water, and then gently lifts it. The carrying curtain is evenly covered with a thin layer of pulp, and then a piece of paper is removed from the carrying curtain. After the paper is stacked on the container, it becomes a paper embryo, and finally it becomes a finished paper after drying and other processes.
At least in the Ming Dynasty, beachhead hand-made papermaking technology was mature, and reached its peak in the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. At present, the main purpose of beachhead handmade paper is to provide base paper for beachhead New Year pictures and fragrant powder paper, which is also regarded as a treasure by calligraphers and specially designed for paper. His studio is also listed as "Calligraphy Creation Base" and "Sketch Creation Base of Longhui Artists Association".
It coincides with the opening of Hunan Summer Rural Cultural Tourism Festival in 2020. The humanities and landscapes encountered in this trip properly show the unique charm and colorful landscape of Huayao folk custom in Longhui!
I fell in love with it carelessly!
Longhui is a city that can come again and again!
I believe there will be new discoveries and new feelings every time. ...
