Baili Dujuan (“Hundred Miles of Rhododendrons”) Scenic Area

📍 The Hundred-Li Azalea is located in Bijie City, Guizhou Province, but most cities cannot reach Bijie directly. Usually, one has to first get to Guiyang and then transfer. 📋 Initially, I planned to buy a 99 yuan round-trip ticket (departing from Guiyang Station or Guiyang North Station) on 'Qian Shuang Travel' and then purchase the entrance ticket myself (the official price is 130 yuan, but there are unofficial ones for 100 yuan). Later, I found a 198 yuan day tour that includes the entrance ticket, lunch, major transportation, and minor transportation (between Pudi and Jinpo), so I simply booked this one. If you are eligible for free admission, it only costs 88 yuan, which is really cheap. Because even if you take the high-speed train to Bijie City, the one-way trip to the Hundred-Li Azalea scenic area would cost about 50 yuan. 🕒 The downside is that you can't get to the scenic area early in the morning. We arrived at the Pudi entrance around 8 am, and in the afternoon, the bus took us to Jinpo. ❤️ I think the two most beautiful spots are: the Colorful Pavilion in Pudi and the Soma Suspension Bridge in Jinpo. These two spots can actually be reached on foot without taking the sightseeing bus. 🧡 Other beautiful spots: the Shuhua Peak in Pudi and the Maying Forest in Jinpo. To get to these two spots, you have to take the sightseeing bus. ✨ A little adventure: Near the Colorful Pavilion, CCTV was filming a program, attracting many beautiful girls in ethnic minority costumes. Originally, I was taking pictures from a distance outside the fence (pictures 5-6), when CCTV reporter Chen Chunxiao came over and asked where I was from. I said Beijing, and she said I could come in to take pictures. I was socially anxious at that moment: Shen Liu really pointing at herself.jpg😯 I thought, other tourists must be very envious of me, hehe, being able to take close-up photos of the beautiful reporter and actors (pictures 7-11).😌 In order not to affect the filming of the program, I still found a little corner to squat in. The professional photographers on site were moving around a lot, and I was super afraid of getting in their way.🥲
