Beautiful ecology and scenery | Hechi travel notes

Hechi is beautiful. I got to know the city of Hechi. I. Transportation and accommodation I took the high-speed train to Hechi West Station, then took the high-speed train special line k1 to Jincheng Middle Road, and stayed near Jinchengjiang Railway Station. I got up at 7:20 today, had a snail rice noodle, and took a ride to Xiaosanxia at 8 o'clock. You can also take Line 18 to Hehua Group Station, and then walk 3 kilometers in. II. The first big thing: buying tickets There were a lot of people on October 3, and the tickets were already sold out! The ticket lady said that people started queuing at 6 o'clock. Isn't it, tourism is also so competitive?! Thinking of the ticket buying experience in Xiaoqikong, I decided to queue up, just in case there are tickets. Finally, I got the 16 o'clock one. It was still early at this time, around 11 o'clock, I met a big brother from Yunnan on the road - Old Wang, the big brother drove here, so we formed a team to go to the first bay of Longjiang. III. Viewing the first bay of Longjiang It takes less than half an hour to get to the first bay of Longjiang from Xiaosanxia. The viewing platform here costs 10 yuan per person. If you want to take a boat, you need to buy another ticket, but you need to queue up. We didn't get on the boat because the timing was not right. Taking photos and playing with water in the scenic area are free. We watched the scenery nearby for a while, and then started climbing. There are 2 viewing platforms, both of which can see the complete first bay. The mountain is not high, but it is very hot. The highest viewing platform is on the hillside, blocked by the mountain, and there is wind, so it is relatively cool. IV. Playing in the water in the first bay of Longjiang Before climbing the mountain, we passed a water channel. The water was clear and bottomless. Some people were soaking their feet. My big brother and I also took off our shoes and soaked our feet. The water was really cold. We climbed the mountain around 12 o'clock, when it was very hot, and the water was very comfortable. When we came down the mountain, we walked to the water channel in the bamboo forest. We saw people swimming in the water channel. They were locals from Liujiatown. They said that you can swim here and the scenic area does not care. I also followed them and went into the water in my shorts. The water was really good, very cold, more than 2 meters deep, and the flow was very fast. Not far downstream is a hydrological monitoring station, where you can get ashore from the sluice (don't go into the water easily!). The big brother can't swim, so he didn't go into the water, just soaked his feet. Some people were diving on the side, and the big brother's clothes got wet, but they dried up in a while in this weather. Being able to play in the water was an unexpected surprise when I came to the first bay of Longjiang. I came to Hechi to see the mountains and climb the mountains, to see the water and play in the water, and it was worth the trip. V. The first bay of Longjiang footpath The water play ended at more than 13 o'clock. I saw a red pedestrian road on the right side of the first bay of Longjiang. We went to see it. There are several viewing platforms along the way, and you can also go to the river to see it. The experience was good, and there were not many people. VI. Xiaosanxia water play and boat ride We returned to Xiaosanxia at 15 o'clock, because the 16 o'clock boat had to take a bus to the dock at 15 o'clock. Before entering the Xiaosanxia scenic area, there is a section of river, the water is very clear and shallow, many people are playing in the water and taking pictures, and there are also camping and barbecue, the experience is good. The boat set off at 16 o'clock, there was a scenic area commentary on the boat, introducing each section of the gorge. We took pictures along the way, arrived at the end at 16:50, got off the boat for 15 minutes to see Mengguzhai, and then returned at 17:05. Mengguzhai is mainly a display of Zhuang culture, you can take a look. The boat ride ended at 18 o'clock, and the day was over.
