Natural scenery Lotus Mountain &; Mazongling
Hongling Highway is very long. Where should we go to enjoy the natural scenery? Lotus Mountain and Mazongling on Martin-cyclo-cross Line are both very good destinations. Although the two places are not together, I think it is not against my will to introduce them together because of their similar scenery and characteristics.
In other words, if you want to go deep into Hongling cyclo-cross and don't know how to get there, you can use these two scenic spots on the Martin cyclo-cross Line as navigation points and search for them directly on the map software. We should pay great attention to safety when driving on winding mountain roads. From the aerial photos, we can see that the mountain road has nine twists and turns, and we should slow down when we meet. Moreover, the highway is two lanes, so tourists must not park their cars on the road because of sightseeing, which will affect the traffic. There will be parking lots and observation decks at intervals on the highway for tourists to enjoy the scenery and take photos.
Mazongling is located at the end of Martin Highway and at the core of Tianma National Nature Reserve. Visitors can park their cars at the entrance, then walk into the scenic spot and get a close look at the autumn colors of Dabie Mountain. If what you appreciate on the observation deck is the stirring of the road, this is the beauty of the details of autumn in Jinzhai.
In addition, there are two points to pay attention to when driving on Hongling Highway. First, the autumn scenery is beautiful, but it is also the top priority of forest fire prevention. No matter how you enter the forest area, it is strictly forbidden to carry kindling. At the entrance of highways and some natural scenic spots, tourists will also be required to scan the QR code to fill in the fire prevention commitment letter.
Secondly, Martin Highway is suitable for private cars in go on road trip, but it is not only for driving, but also for many motorcycle and mountain bike enthusiasts to ride through. Compared with driving a car, their efforts are more worthy of our admiration, but they are also relatively vulnerable groups. Therefore, when driving, we should pay more attention to avoiding them, so as to drive without looking at the scenery and keep up our spirits.
You can also remember the entrances and exits at both ends of Martin Highway. If you come from Jinzhai County, you should start from the Red Army Square. If you come by car from other places, such as Wuhan and Hefei
, get off at the Gubei Expressway toll station and enter.
Natural Scenery West Tea Valley
People in China have always loved tea, and Jinzhai is a big tea-producing county. Affected by the southeast monsoon, Jinzhai < P > is rainy and foggy, with an annual rainfall of about 1,811 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 slices have the best quality, especially in Jinzhai
county. Xicha Valley connected in series by Hongling Highway is a beautiful landscape tea garden, located in Mianchong Village, Youfangdian Township.
Xicha Valley is open to tourists free of charge. At present, there are hydrophilic trails, 1.36m landscape suspension bridge across Kuwan, xianghongdian reservoir, water floating wharf and so on. Promenades, pavilions, etc. are also cleverly integrated into the tea fields, which are very good choices for leisure viewing or mountaineering exploration. The most important thing is not to forget to have a cup of
Luan melon slices between good water and good tea.
Natural Scenery Shilixi
Shilixi Scenic Spot is located in Longjing Natural Village, Jianghe Village, Qingshan Town, which belongs to the niche of Jinzhai
County. It was already ten o'clock in the evening when we came here. The sunset was so beautiful that it stopped our steps. Because of the time, I didn't go deep into the mountains to watch the rushing waterfalls at close range. Instead, I took an aerial photo with the afterglow of the sunset. The low water in late autumn is not so spectacular, but the rich colors in the forest are like the color palette of nature, and they play their own imagination.
It was getting late after the aerial photography, and we also settled the dinner at Qingshan farmhouse next to Shilixi. The food in the mountains is very real, really delicious and cheap.
Natural Scenery Swallow River Grand Canyon
Swallow River Grand Canyon is not far from Tiantangzhai Scenic Area, and it is also a rare local natural landscape, which can be a good supplement to Tiantangzhai. The gorge stretches continuously and is famous for its dangerous cliffs, strange rocks, deep valleys and beautiful waters. 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, and every car is stuck on the track of the slide, which is exciting and safe, and can also enjoy the beautiful scenery among the mountains dynamically.
In the rugged Yanzi River Grand Canyon, it seems that all the colors in Dabie Mountain are hidden! This canyon is about 4811 meters long, and then you can walk along the wooden plank road. Although the distance doesn't sound short, the mood of watching the scenery is different. Rich scenery can eliminate the fatigue of hiking, and the design of almost not going back makes the whole line feel tired at all.
The Yanzi 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 shortage of water, it also exposes the natural strange stones here, with various stone patterns and caves, as if they were like another planet.
Red Army Memorial Park in Hubei, Henan and Anhui
Hubei, Henan and Anhui Memorial Park is one of the most abundant red tourist attractions in Jinzhai
, which mainly integrates site display, historical deeds display and revolutionary traditional education. At present, there are seven main visiting projects in the park, namely: the former site of the military and political institutions of the Red 25th Army, the former site of the military and political institutions of the Red 28th Army,
War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression Historical Exhibition Hall in Anhui Province and Jinzhai
. These venues are patriotic education bases 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. From these venues, we can see that its revolutionary history is very long. During the Agrarian Revolution, long summer Festival Uprising and Liuhuo Uprising broke out successively in the territory, which was the main source and outbreak place of the 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. The history is too long to understand in a few words. I came to travel this time with a learning attitude, and recorded a lot of notes and pictures, and I came back to digest them slowly. In short, there are really many things in the revolutionary history here.
The Jinzhai
County Historical Relics Museum in the park may have an essential difference from other venues, that is, it is not entirely a red venue. The Museum of Historical Relics also displayed more than 4,111 exhibits, including stone tools, pottery, porcelain, jade, bronze and so on, including more than 411 first-,second-and third-class cultural relics in China. It focuses on the five thousand years of human production and living utensils and precious works of art in Jinzhai and even Dabie Mountains.
among them, the treasure of the town hall in the cultural relics museum is a bronze seal of the general manager's office, which was managed by Tianlong Phoenix for four years. This seal is the official seal issued by Han Liner, a peasant uprising army in the late Yuan Dynasty, after the founding of the Song Dynasty. It is made of copper and has a square wide edge, and its workmanship is very exquisite. At the same time, this bronze seal is also the earliest bronze seal of the revolutionary regime of the ancient peasant uprising army found in China at present, and it is a national first-class cultural relic.
Red Army Square
If you are in a hurry to travel in Jinzhai, and only one red scenic spot is planned, then I will definitely recommend you to Red Army Square. Located in the center of Jinzhai
county, the square integrates towers, pavilions, halls, monuments, cemeteries 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 patriotism education demonstration base, national red tourism classic scenic spot and national defense education base.
the tourist attractions of the Red Army Square in Jinzhai County include six major 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 and see the scenery of Jinzhai County. You can also remember the martyrs and experience the hard-won life of today.
When I came to the Red Army Square, I strongly recommend Jinzhai County Revolutionary Museum. If the memorial garden in front of Hubei, Henan and Anhui is the most abundant red tourist attraction in Jinzhai
, then the revolutionary popular science in this revolutionary museum will be more concentrated and comprehensive, and it will be easier for ordinary tourists to understand and figure out the timeline while listening to the explanations.
the revolutionary history is the same, so I won't go into details here. What impressed me the most in the Revolution Museum is that there is an exhibition hall that focuses on 59 founding generals in Jinzhai
County, and there is also a personal exhibition hall of General Hong Xuezhi. I am also very interested in its legendary life.
General Hong Xuezhi took part in the revolution in March, 1929.
At the age of 19, he took Ma Keqin as the company commander, participated in the Long March, Liaoshen Campaign, Pingjin Campaign, Crossing the River and so on, and crossed the Yalu River as the logistics commander of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, with numerous honors throughout his life. With regard to General Hong Xuezhi's tortuous, legendary and colorful life experience, a 29-level TV series was released in 2119, and interested friends can search General Hong Xuezhi to have a look.
Red Scenic Spot Liu Deng Army Front Command
Friends who are familiar with Anhui tourism should be familiar with Tiantangzhai Scenic Spot, which is located in Jinzhai
! It is also the only national 5A scenic spot in the county, which can be said to be the trump card in the trump card. This time, I took Hongling Highway to pass through this scenic spot, but I have been to Tiantangzhai several times before, and the scenic spot is large and time-consuming, so I didn't buy a ticket to enter this time. But I know that at the gate of Tiantangzhai Scenic Area, there is an old house that is free for tourists. It is the former site of the front headquarters of Liu Deng Army.
There are many tourists who come to Tiantangzhai for free travel every day, but most people will miss this scenic spot. Perhaps only elderly tour groups led by tour guides are interested in visiting it. There is a bronze statue in the square in front of the old house. These two men are the two great men, Liu and Deng, who are familiar with "Liu Deng's army marching into Dabie Mountain". The statue is vivid and vividly depicts the scene of the two men's combat command. There is a path to the right of the bronze statue, which leads to the former headquarters.
I took an aerial photo of this square, and found that this "old house" looks very magnificent, and there are several halls in front and back. In the introduction of the commentator, I realized that it was a renovated building. When the Liu Deng Army came here, the old owner of the house was a local rich man named Zhou, who voluntarily gave up his house to the Liu Deng Army as the front headquarters. I also saw the original appearance of this old house in the exhibition hall. It is quite big, but it is really not so imposing, which means that the combat conditions were still relatively limited. Because Zhou's family is a businessman from
Sichuan, and even the craftsmen who built the house are from Sichuan, this old house is not a Huizhou-style building in the traditional sense, but has many design styles of Sichuan
folk houses. The renovated house is still preserved according to the previous pattern.
The door of this house is very special in design. Please don't think that my photo-taking skills are so bad that the door is tilted. The design of this gate is a little crooked and slightly twisted, which is euphemistically called: turning Gankun around. The purpose is to show that "advancing into Dabie Mountain" is a strategic deployment to reverse Gan Kun. This kind of design is obviously added by the scenic spot in the later period. When the old house was built, it would not have been thought that it would have such an important role.
entering the interior of the house, from the perspective of the building itself, there is no high value for visiting, because it is a renovated new building after all, and the Dabie Mountain area is not as exquisite as Huizhou
area in southern Anhui, and it is not known to ponder the fine degree. Therefore, for tourists, the main attractions here are concentrated in several exhibition halls, which are illustrated by pictures and texts, introducing to tourists the significance of "marching into Dabie Mountain" and some real information when marching and fighting in the past.
I walked down in about half an hour and carefully read the text introduction in each exhibition hall. I think these materials in the exhibition hall are very precious, and the details reflect the great difficulty of the battle and the hard conditions, and it is not easy to win in the end.
Red scenic spot, Dawang Temple in Nanxi Town
Dawang Temple is located in the southeast of Dingjiabu Street in Nanxi Town, Jinzhai County. It was originally a hall dedicated to the Dragon King and also a trading place where merchants gathered. Later, as the starting place of the famous "long summer Festival Uprising", it played an important role in the development history of the revolution in Hubei, Henan and Anhui. Now the King Temple is already a state-level cultural relics protection unit, and it is a very weighty red scenic spot in the local area.
There is a vivid statue in the square in front of the King's Temple, which shows the long summer Day Uprising. We should know that the long summer Festival Uprising was an armed peasant movement that broke out in Nanxi, Wujiadian, Baisha River, Banzhuyuan, Wenchang Palace, Tangjiahui, Lijiaji and Xihe in Jinzhai County. Accurately speaking, the King Temple can't be called the former site of long summer Festival Uprising, but the concept of "starting place".
Zhu's Temple in Banzhuyuan, a red scenic spot
Following the long summer Festival Uprising above, it was said that after the victory of this uprising, according to the original plan, all the uprising teams joined forces with Zhu's Temple in Banzhuyuan, and according to the Red Army designation ordered by their superiors, they announced the establishment of the 32nd Division of the 11th Army of the Workers and Peasants Red Army in China. The Zhu's Temple in Banzhuyuan has become the former site of the establishment of the Red Thirty-two Division.
The area of Zhu's Temple is not very large. If you stop by, you can visit it. I really like the old wood carvings on the beams here, which are very delicate. There is even a combination of the Eight Immortals and Nezha in "Crossing the Sea". Isn't the East China Sea
overturned? Maybe it's like the long summer Day Uprising!
Red Attraction Tangjiahui Red Town
Tangjiahui Town is located in the hinterland of Dabie Mountain, which is the northwest gateway of Jinzhai County, Anhui Province, and the traffic artery of Henan and Anhui provinces. If you want to deeply experience the red scenic spots in Jinzhai, you have to come to Tangjiahui, the first batch of red towns in Anhui Province. Tangjiahui is the earliest place where the revolution broke out in Jinzhai. Three of the 11 Red Army troops born in Jinzhai County were born in Tangjiahui area, and there are as many as 61 revolutionary sites, including China.
