Shenshu Jian

Jingbian Shenshuyu is a very characteristic natural attraction. The willow tree here is called the hairy willow and can also be called sweat. There is no tall fork at the top of him, only a lot of separate branches. There are more than 100 such trees here. The tree age has been hit for 370 years. It’s like entering a pastoral place, with old corn, potatoes, and watermelon crops nearby, so you can enjoy the beauty of nature here.

I am the interpreter of the Tongwancheng site, and the god tree is less than 12 kilometers away from the Tongwancheng site where I am. There are more than 300 century-old dry willows here, with a distribution range of more than 20 square kilometers. Now it is very convenient to visit. It is more than one kilometer from the main road Zhangba Road (X222 County Road) to the place where you can see the century-old willows. The government has made plans and road signs, mainly 8 points, 1 point has cement hardened parking lot and public toilets, 1 point to 2 point is about one kilometer away, 2 point to 8 point between the points are not far away. From point 1 to point 8 is basically a asphalt road, the farthest from the road is point 4, which is relatively remote. From the 1 to the 8 round trip about 7 kilometers, it is recommended that tourists who have time to visit here for two to three hours. I walked around on January 21 this year, the snow on the ground was not clear, and the dry willow in winter highlighted the tension of life in the desolation. The scenery of the god tree is relatively beautiful in autumn and winter.

Driving to the god tree not far from Tongwancheng, there is no special reminder here, a township road through a large area of farmland, the dry willow on both sides because the green leaves are lush, people do not pay attention, but the trunk shows the long time, these trees are more than 200 years old dry willow, or several side by side, Or scattered in the field, some as petals from the center cracked after branching out obliquely, some have become dead wood to fall on the side of the road.

Driving more than 70 kilometers, from the Wave Valley to the Shenshuyu, it is a scenic spot with preliminary planning, but it is a roadside scene, the dry willow shape is strange, the scale is OK, but there is no imagined density, so it looks not so spectacular, the shape is not as good as Populus euphratica forest, a little disappointed. The only advantage, clean, no people, not few people, really no people!

The rare ancient dry willow group is located in Hongdunjie Town, Jingbian County. There are 139 ancient willow trees in the territory. The ancient willow tree is strange and the tree age is very rare in China. Although the ancient willow group has experienced thousands of years of wind and rain, it is growing and growing, and its tenacious vitality makes the world amazing. The local people worshiped the ancient willow as a "God tree", worshiped and prayed for protection.
