Unbelievable! I Found Guizhou's Hidden "Gate to the Earth's Core"

🌟 Unbelievable! I Found Guizhou's Hidden "Gate to the Earth's Core" ——Tested by a seasoned traveler: This is how you explore Ziyun Getu River like a true adventurer! 🌄 【One-Liner That Blows Minds】 "100,000 swallows soaring through caves, spider-men scaling cliffs barehanded! Even French explorers hailed this as 'the world's most stunning karst landscape'!" 🚣 【Core Adventures|Off-the-Beaten-Path & Wild—Copy This Itinerary!】 1. **Boat Ride into the "Earth's Core"** - **Swallow Cave (Big Arch Cave)**: A 116-meter-high natural arch! Glide in by boat as swarms of swallows dart overhead (visible from Qingming to Chongyang Festival). Deep inside, sunlight pours through the "Sky Light Cave"—catch a rainbow if you're lucky! 💦 - **Tianxing Cave**: Witness the Miao ethnic group’s ancient **hanging coffins**! 104 coffins suspended on cave walls, oozing mystery (⚠️ Note: Viewable only from the boat; no landing allowed). 2. **Hike to Discover "Divine Wonders"** - **Chuanshang Cave + Blind Valley**: Climb 2,000 steps (fair warning: exhausting!), traverse an ancient riverbed, and reach a mountaintop cave so vast it could fit a plane ✈️! Beyond lies the **Blind Valley Primitive Forest**, untouched and overgrown like a "fairy-tale jungle." - **"Spider-Man" Performance**: Daily shows! Watch local Miao climbers scale 100-foot cliffs barehanded in just 7 minutes (a dying tradition once used to harvest bird nests). 3. **Half-Day Chill in a Miao Village** - **Dahe Miao Village**: A hidden paradise by Getu River! Rice fields, stilt houses, and bamboo groves surround you. Feast on **sour fish soup and grilled pork** (just ¥20 per person!). At dusk, enjoy free Miao dance performances 💃, and stay in a stilt-house guesthouse (¥80/night). - **Color-Changing Lake**: A mystical lake behind the village! Its waters shift between red, yellow, and green with the seasons—perfect for photos 📸. ⚠️ 【Pitfall Guide|Lessons Learned the Hard Way!】 - **Transport**: ✈️ Easiest from Anshun! South Station → Ziyun County (¥28/2hr by bus) → transfer to scenic shuttle (¥12/1hr). Last return bus at 3 PM! - **Tickets**: Book the **¥190 combo ticket** online (covers entry, shuttle, boat, elevator, and shows). Don’t buy à la carte on-site! Students get 50% off entry. - **Critical Tips**: ✅ Avoid rainy season (June-August)! Caves may close, and spider-man shows could cancel. ✅ Wear anti-slip shoes! Cave floors are slick, and Blind Valley’s steps are brutally steep. ✅ Pack light—bring a backpack + waterproof phone case! 📅 【2-Day/1-Night Highlights Route】 **Day 1**: Arrive by noon → boat tour of Swallow + Tianxing Caves → spider-man show → stay at Dahe Miao Village (try the sour fish soup!). **Day 2**: Hike Chuanshang Cave + Blind Valley → village photo ops → leave before 3 PM! “When sunlight pierces the Sky Light Cave, and Blind Valley’s wind carries the scent of wild herbs… in that moment, you’ll know: life’s worth lies in the freedom of mountains and rivers.” 💡 Guide compiled from on-site visits.
