Pangu Mountain Sceneic Area Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
Pangu Mountain in Biyang, the sacred land of Pangu
Every year on March 3rd, Pangu Mountain holds a temple fair and ancestor worship ceremony, commonly known as 'March 3rd Pangu Mountain'.
We have a legend here that we've heard from the elders since we were children.
The legend says that after Pangu created the world, there were no other humans in the world, only Grandpa Pangu and Grandma Pangu, who were siblings. They wanted to create some people.
Due to the constraints of worldly morality, siblings cannot marry and have children.
So Grandpa Pangu and Grandma Pangu came up with a method. The siblings each climbed to the top of a mountain and simultaneously rolled a millstone down the mountain. If the two millstones rolled to the foot of the mountain and combined, the siblings would marry and have children. As fate would have it, the two millstones did indeed combine at the foot of the mountain, and so the siblings married. This is the widely spread legend of 'rolling the millstone to marry'.
Now there is a place called Damo on the side of Pangu Mountain, where the millstones that rolled down the mountain and combined are located.
Tongshanhu Forest Park Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
Low-carbon natural Tongshan Lake half-day tour
Continue to practice the principle of not going out and avoiding adding trouble to others during the long holiday, and search for places nearby that have not been visited.
I found a good place for green oxygen absorption and low-carbon environmental protection - Zhumadian Biyang Tongshan Lake Scenic Area.
It took 2 hours to drive there because I took the wrong way. Thinking about more than 100 kilometers, it's not far so I used car navigation, but I didn't expect it to be really bad, it restarted several times automatically, causing me to miss the exit and run 27 kilometers more before turning back.
The entrance ticket to the scenic area is 20 yuan, and you can drive directly in. But be aware that the further you go, the narrower the road becomes, so don't go against the traffic otherwise you won't be able to pass, you need to drive all the way to another exit to get out.
Although it's called a lake, I personally think the most interesting part is actually the forest by the lake.
Tall and straight fir trees, looking at the stars through the gaps in the leaves; the babbling stream leaves traces of autumn rain on the winding forest path.
Walking in this forest, time seems to stop, it's quiet all around, and the white stumps are quietly waiting for us under the trees.
The entire tour time varies from person to person, you can walk in the forest all day, or you can take a boat tour on the lake for a while, or you can drive for an hour and a half to experience the narrowness and danger of the forest path.
