Detailed itineraryNatural scenery of Lotus Mountain & Horsehair Ridge
Red Ridge Highway is very long, we appreciate the natural scenery then where to go better? Martin Highway cross-country line of the Lotus Hill and Horsehair Ridge are very good destinations, although the two places are not together, but because of the scenery, features are more similar I think put together to introduce to you is no sense of contradiction.
In other words, if you want to go deeper into the Red Ridge highway cross-country and don't know how to get there, these two spots on the Martin Highway cross-country route can be used as navigation points, and you can search for them directly on your mapping software to get there. Twisting and winding mountain road driving to pay close attention to safety, from the aerial pictures we can see the mountain road nine twists and turns, when the meeting even more to slow down and slow down. And the highway is two lanes, tourists should not park their cars on the road and affect the traffic because of the view. There are parking lots and viewing platforms for visitors to enjoy the scenery and take photos at intervals along the highway.
The Horsehair Ridge is located at the end of the Martin Highway, at the heart of the Tianma National Nature Reserve, where tourists can park their cars at the entrance and walk deeper into the scenic area to get a close-up feel of the fall colors of the Dabie Mountains. If it's the swashbuckling beauty of the highway you're enjoying from the observation deck, here's the detailed beauty of
Jinzhai's autumn.
Additionally, you need to pay attention to two points when you come to Hongling Highway for driving. The first point, the autumn scenery is very beautiful, but it is also the top priority of mountain fire prevention, everyone, no matter what way to enter the forest area, are strictly prohibited to carry fire, in the highway and some natural scenic spots at the entrance, but also will require tourists to scan the two-dimensional code to fill out a fire prevention commitment.
Secondly, the Martin Highway is suitable for private car tours, but it is by no means the only place where you can drive, and there are many motorcycle and mountain bike enthusiasts who come to ride through. Compared to driving a car, their efforts are more worthy of our admiration, but relatively speaking, they are also vulnerable, so we should pay attention to avoiding when driving, do not drive to see the scenery, and play a twelve-pointed spirit.
Martin Highway at both ends of the entrance and exit you can also remember, if it is from the direction of Jinzhai County, from the beginning of the Red Army Plaza to enter; if it is from the field to drive over, such as Wuhan, Hefei
direction, from the Gubi high-speed toll station down the highway to enter.
Natural scenery West Tea Valley
Chinese people from ancient times love to drink tea, Jinzhai is a tea-producing county. Affected by the southeast monsoon, Jinzhai
Rainy, cloudy, annual rainfall of about 1800 millimeters, the unique climatic conditions conducive to the formation and accumulation of tea inclusions. "One of China's top ten famous tea" Lu'an Gua Pian especially in Jinzhai
County's output of the best quality. Hongling highway linked to the West Tea Valley is a beautiful landscape tea garden, located in the face of the store township of Yaofangchong village.
West Tea Valley is free and open to visitors, and what has been built are water-friendly walkways, a 136-meter landscape suspension bridge across the bay of the Hongdian Reservoir, and a water floating dock. Promenade, pavilions, etc. are also skillfully integrated into the tea fields, whether it is a leisure view or hiking to explore the mystery, is a very good choice. The most important thing is that between this good water and good tea, don't forget to taste a cup of
Liu'an Gua Pian.
Natural Scenery Ten Mile Stream
The Ten Mile Stream attraction is located in Longjing Natural Village, Jianghe Village, Qingshan Town, which belongs to the niche secret area of Jinzhai
County. It was already ten minutes in the evening when we came here, and the sunset was so beautiful that it stopped our footsteps. Due to time constraints, I was not able to go deep into the mountains and forests to see the waterfalls up close. Instead, I took advantage of the setting sun to take an aerial photograph of the waterfalls in late autumn, which were not as spectacular as they appeared, but the rich colors in the forests were like nature's palette, and the sky played with their own imaginations.
After the aerial photography, it was getting late, and we settled for dinner at the Green Mountain Nongjia next to Ten Mile Creek. The food in the mountains is very honest, really tasty and cheap.
Natural scenery Yanzi River Grand Canyon
Yanzi River Grand Canyon is not far from the scenic spot of Tiantangzhai, and it is also a rare natural landscape in the area, which can serve as a good supplement to Tiantangzhai. The canyon stretches over strange gorges and is famous for its dangerous cliffs, strange rocks, secluded valleys and beautiful water. There are two ways to enter the scenic spot, one is to take the scenic bus from the visitor center, and the other is to take the slide. The second way is highly recommended, novel and fun, and each car is stuck on the rails of the slide, exciting and safe, but also dynamic to enjoy the beauty of the mountains and forests.
The rocky Yanzi River Grand Canyon seems to be privy to all the colors in the Dabie Mountains! This canyon is about 4,800 meters long, and is then just a short walking tour along the wooden trestle. Although the distance does not sound short, but the mood to see the scenery is different, rich scenery can eliminate the exhaustion of hiking, almost no backtracking design makes the whole route tour down at all will not feel tired.
This season's Yanzi River Grand Canyon makes me feel as if I were in a fairy tale world within the scenic area. Although the amount of water is somewhat lacking, but also exposed the natural stones here, stone pattern, stone cave in a thousand different ways, as if it is like another planet.
Red Attractions EYA Red Army Memorial Park
EYA Memorial Park is one of the richest red tourism attractions in Jinzhai
Mainly, it is mainly a collection of old sites, historical deeds display, revolutionary tradition education, etc., and at present, there are seven main visits in the park, which are: the old site of the Red 25th Army's political institutions, The former site of the Red 28th Army,
Anhui Anti-Japanese War History Exhibition Hall, Jinzhai
County Historical Relics Museum, the site of the Liuhuo Uprising, the Red Army Pavilion, and Hu's Ancestral Hall (where the Red 25th Army and the Red 28th Army are merged). All of these venues are patriotic education bases open to visitors for free, but note that they are closed every Monday.
Jinzhai
County is located in the border area of Hubei, Henan and Anhui, and its long history of revolution can be seen from these venues. During the period of the Land Revolution, the territory has broken out of the summer festival uprising and six Huo Uprising, is the main source of the three major revolutionary armed uprisings in the EYWAN and the outbreak of the EYWAN Revolutionary base is the main creation of the EYWAN Revolutionary base and the regional center. The history is too long to be understood in a few words, and I came to the tour with a learning mindset, recorded a lot of notes and pictures, and came back to digest slowly. All in all there is really a lot of revolutionary history here.
Jinzhai
Park
County historical relics museum may have an essential difference with other venues, is that this is not entirely a red venue. Historical relics museum also displayed out of stoneware, pottery, porcelain, jade, bronze and other 4,000 exhibits, its China
family first, second and third-class cultural relics on more than 400 pieces. Concentrate on the Jinzhai and even the Dabie mountainous area up and down five thousand years of human production and living utensils and precious works of art.
One of the cultural relics museum of the treasure of the museum is a Tianlongfeng four years tube army general administration of the copper seal. This seal for the end of the Yuan peasant insurgents Han Liner issued after the establishment of the Song Dynasty official seal, copper, square-shaped wide edge, very beautiful workmanship. At the same time this copper seal is also found in China's ancient peasant insurgent revolutionary regime of the earliest copper seal, for the national level cultural relics.
Red Attractions Red Army Square
If you are in a hurry to travel in Jinzhai, and you are only going to go to one of the red attractions, then I would definitely recommend you to come to Red Army Square. The square is located in the center of Jinzhai
County urban area, the tower, pavilion, hall, monument, cemetery, square into one, is a national 4A level tourist attractions, with the national key martyrs memorial buildings protection units, national patriotic education demonstration base, the national red tourism classic scenic spots, national defense education base and many other honorary titles.
Jinzhai County Red Army Square Tourist Scenic Spot includes six major attractions such as Revolutionary Martyrs' Memorial Tower, Jinzhai County Revolutionary Museum, Red Army Martyrs' Cemetery, Red Army Square, General Hong Xuezhi's Memorial Monument, and Jinzhai
County Red Army Memorial Hall. Here you can climb up and see the scenery of Jinzhai County; you can also remember the martyrs and experience the hard-won good life today.
Coming to the Red Army Square, the Jinzhai County Revolutionary Museum is highly recommended. If the front of the EYW Memorial Park is Jinzhai
the richest red tourist attractions, then this Revolutionary Museum of revolutionary science and technology is more concentrated and comprehensive, for ordinary tourists while listening to the explanation, it is easier to understand and figure out the timeline.
Revolutionary history is the same, here will not repeat too much. What impressed me most in the Revolutionary Museum is that there is an exhibition hall focusing on the 59 founding generals of Jinzhai
County, and there is a personal pavilion of General Hong Xuezhi. I was also very interested in his legendary life.
General Hong Xuezhi in March 1929 to participate in the revolution,
In the revolutionary career at the age of 19 carried Maxim as a company commander, participated in the Long March, Liao-Shen Battle, Ping-Jin Battle, the Battle of the Yangtze River, etc., and as a logistical commander in chief of the war of resistance against the U.S. to aid North Korea across the Yalu River, a life of countless honors. About General Hong Xuezhi twists and turns of legendary and glorious and colorful life experience, there has been a 29-level TV series in 2019 when it was released, interested partners can search for "General Hong Xuezhi" to see.
Red Attractions Liu Deng Army Forward Command
Friends familiar with traveling in Anhui should not be unfamiliar with the Paradise Walled City scenic spot, which is located in Jinzhai
! It is also the only national 5A scenic spot in the county, which can be said to be the ace in the hole. This time to take the red ridge highway also route this scenic area, but before has been deliberately to the heavenly fortress several times, and the scenic area is larger more time-consuming, this time did not buy tickets to enter. However, I know that in the heavenly fortress scenic area gate ah, there is an old house is free to tourists open attractions, it is the former site of Liu Deng army forward command.
There are a lot of tourists who come to Tiantangzhai for free every day, but most of them will miss this attraction, and probably only the senior tour groups led by tour guides are interested in coming to visit. In the square in front of the old house there is a bronze statue of the two men we are familiar with in the "Liu Deng army advancing into the Dabie Mountains" Liu and Deng two great men. The statue is exquisite, vividly depicting the scene of the two combat command. On the right side of the bronze statue, there is a path up to the old command headquarters.
Aerial photography on this side of the square, I think this "old house" looks very grand, and there are several halls before and after. In the lecturer's introduction to realize that it is a refurbished building, when the Liu Deng army came here, the old owner of the house is a local surnamed Zhou's rich, took the initiative to give their own house to the Liu Deng army as the front command. In the pavilion also saw the original appearance of this old house, big is quite big, but really not so grand, that is to say, when the combat conditions are still relatively limited. Because the Zhou family was a merchant from
Sichuan, even the craftsmen who built the house came from Sichuan, so the old house is not a traditional Huizhou-style building, but has many Sichuan
residential design style. The renovated house still follows the same layout as before.
The gate of this house is very special in design, you see the picture below don't think that I am very bad at taking pictures, the gate is crooked? The design of this gate is a little crooked, slightly twisted, the name: twisted. Designed to illustrate the "advance into the Dabie Mountains" is a strategic deployment to turn the tide. Such a design is obviously a later scenic area to add, the old house in the time of building will not think it will have such an important role.
Inside the house, from the point of view of the building itself has not been too high value of the visit, because it is after all a renovated new building, and the Dabie Mountain area is not like the Anhui Huizhou
area as a lot of architectural attention to detail, and do not know to speculate on the degree of refinement. Therefore, the main attractions for tourists are concentrated in a number of exhibition halls, which introduce the significance of "advancing into the Dabie Mountains" and some real information about the marching and fighting in those years through illustrated displays.
I walked down in about half an hour and carefully read the text in each pavilion. I think these materials in the exhibition hall are very precious, from the details of the details of the battle of that year, the difficulty of the conditions of the hard, and finally won the victory is very difficult.
Red attractions Nanxi Town, Dawang Temple
Dawang Temple is located in Jinzhai
County Nanxi Town Dingjiabu small street on the south-east side of the town, which was originally enshrined in the Dragon King as a merchant's hall, but also a trading place for merchants and businessmen, and then as the famous "Lixia festival uprising" first place. Later, as the first place of the famous "Summer Uprising", it has an important position in the history of the revolutionary development of EYWM. Now Dawangmiao is a national cultural relics protection unit, and is a very important local red attraction.
There is a vivid statue on the square in front of Dawang Temple showing the Lixia Festival Uprising of that year. What you need to know is that the Lixia Festival Uprising was an armed movement of peasants that broke out in many places in Jinzhai County such as Nanxi, Wujiadian, Baishashahe, Zanzhuyuan, Wenchang
gong, Tangjiahui, Lijiaji, and Xiehe. Accurately speaking, Dawangmiao can not be called the old site of the summer festival uprising, but the concept of what we call the "first place".
Red Attractions Banzhuyuan Zhu's Ancestral Hall
After the above Lixia Festival Uprising, after the victory of this uprising, in accordance with the original plan, all the insurrectionary teams will meet at the Banzhuyuan Zhu's Ancestral Hall, in accordance with the orders of the superior Red Army number, declared the establishment of the 32nd division of the 11th army of the Chinese
The Workers' and Peasants' Red Army. The Zhu's Ancestral Hall in Banzhuyuan became the site of the 32nd Division of the Red Army.
Zhu's ancestral temple area is not very large, by the way, if here to do a visit can be, I do like here on the beams of the old wood carvings, very fine, there are actually "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea" in the eight Immortals plus Nezha's combination, that the East China Sea
won't it be a mess of the sky? Maybe it's like the Rising Summer Uprising!
Red Attractions Tangjiahui Red Town
Tangjiahui Town is located in the hinterland of the Dabie Mountains, is the northwest gateway to Jinzhai County in Anhui Province, and is a major transportation route between the provinces of Henan and Anhui. To experience the red attractions of Jinzhai in depth, you have to come to Tangjiahui, one of the first red towns in Anhui
province. Tangjiahui is the earliest outbreak of revolution in Jinzhai, Jinzhai County, the birth of the 11 Red Army team, three were born in the Tangjiahui area, the remains of the revolutionary site of 61, which China
family-level cultural relics protection units 4 (in the southeast of the **** Yu, Northwest Anhui Province, the Road District Soviet Government - Jiexian Temple, Chicheng County, six districts of the township of the Lenin Elementary School old site, the Chicheng
County postal services, Xu's Shrine, the old site of the post office, the old township of Chicheng
County Post Office. The former site of the post office in Chicheng County-Xu's Ancestral Hall, the former site of the meeting of the Provincial Committee of the Yu-E Anhui Provincial Committee, and the former site of the Red 25th Army and the Red 28th Army-Hu's Ancestral Hall), and 11 provincial-level cultural relics protection units. Everywhere you go in the town, you can see the "red" dress.
Tongjiahui of these units are also free to tourists, we visited in turn, in the town there is also a Red Army Street, where tourists can solve the needs of food, housing, shopping, etc., although it is a late new construction
but one of the country's only two remaining red post office site - Xu's Ancestral Hall, is in this street. It is in this street, feeling that the town really integrates the red culture into modern life.
Specialty RecommendationsJinzhai mountain goods
Many of my buddies around me like to buy some local specialties when they go out to travel, even if the e-commerce has been developed to the point where they can buy the world without leaving the house, but the sense of participation and accomplishment of picking out the items in the place where they are traveling is still irreplaceable. There are also a lot of small friends travel never buy special products, because many mature domestic tourist places "special products" are from the obligation of the small commodity market or factory mass production of cheap goods, and is not really a good thing. But come to
Jinzhai, where the specialties I highly recommend!
Why? As I said earlier, Jinzhai is located in the hinterland of Dabie Mountain, and there are no particularly commercialized scenic spots selling tourist souvenirs here. Most of the specialties here are genuine local mountain products or agricultural products, such as
Dendrobium, tea, wild vegetables, dried bamboo shoots, etc., which are usually not easy to buy in the city, but are really plentiful and cheap in the mountains. For example, when we were in Tiechong Township, we came across a mushroom poverty alleviation industry service center.
Thinking of stopping for a break to buy a little bit of home, I found that the mushroom here is a poverty alleviation program, you can visit the mushroom planting greenhouses as well as open processing workshop. Compared with the city or the Internet, because there is no transportation, the wages of the staff in all aspects of the many costs involved, we bought a series of shiitake mushrooms on the spot at a lower price, and by the way, but also for the cause of poverty alleviation to contribute to a small contribution, so it is really good!
Other mountain products, agricultural products is the same reason, in short, the mountains to buy not lose and fooled. There is no specific place, driving when you see you can stop and buy.
Recommended food and accommodationBeautiful villages along the way
Come to Jinzhai travel, if you have not thought about where to land, then I would recommend that you eat in the attractions along the way in the beautiful villages and accommodation, because the accommodation in the county is not enough compared to the distinctive. We drove through Dawan
Village, Xingwan and Tiechong Township. The next brief introduction, you can according to their own trip near the choice of suitable landing point.
Dawan Village
Dawan Village in Huashi Township has a great reputation, and you can see for yourself why it's not convenient to talk about it here. Today's Dawan
Village has been transformed from a poverty-stricken village back in the day into a real beautiful village. In 2019, was selected in Anhui Province, "2019 the first batch of beautiful village key demonstration village" list; August 26, 2020, Dawan
Village was selected in the second batch of the national rural tourism key village list; September 9, 2020, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs General Office was announced as the 2020 China beautiful Leisure Village.
Walking in the village, found here the new
white walls and black tiles of the Huizhou-style buildings are particularly good-looking, and now there is a Netflix bed and breakfast, Dabie Mountain Farming Exhibition Hall and other attractions, as well as planting a large area of the golden chrysanthemum agricultural products, which actually help villagers to get rid of poverty and become rich in the combination of things together, coincidentally, sketched out a beautiful countryside picture.
Xingwan Village
Xingwan is located in Jinzhai
's Zhanzhuyuan Township, and is on the way to the Tiantangzhai Scenic Area, so its location is very advantageous. The name of Xingwan has some legendary color, it is Banzhuyuan's Lacquer clan to commemorate the first ancestor of the migration of business style Xian Gong named, at first "Xianwan", and over time will be shouted into the current Xingwan.
Xingwan has a great bed-and-breakfast and is also home to the Bamboo Garden Visitor Center. The place is full of Anhui A and E A self-driving cars, so it seems that Hefei and Wuhan
self-driving tourists are very good at finding places! Fellow old Deng also said: he went out to drive like this place, do not care to go to what well-known tourist attractions, as long as the environment is good, there are places to drink tea, fishing, weekend comfort to stay on two days is the best arrangement! Undoubtedly this is again suitable for tourists with such needs as him.
Tiechong Township
Jinzhai
The last day of driving, along the Hongling Highway to the Tiechong Township, where I came for the second time, the first time was in the spring of last year, to come here by the local up to 10Km long wild Magnolia Valley was shocked! After more than a year, magnolias are now out of season, and I didn't realize that a local magnolia plaza had been built, which looked very intimate. I stopped here to take an aerial photo of Tiechong's beautiful mountains and water.
In Tiechong also heard by the Indian Xiaotian, Fu Jing and other actors in the TV series "national sentiment" crew in this location filming, about the story of the old red revolutionary area Jinjiazhai people out of poverty to run a prosperous story, so also drove to this small film and television base - Wujia Village. The original ecological countryside old house has become the most perfect studio, film and television base is also free to open to tourists, tourists visit to listen to the crew arrangements, to avoid entering the mirror, into the sound.
Ending
Jinzhai's fall is a bright landscape in western Anhui, the mountains of the red leaves beautiful. It is also one of the cradles of the Red Army of the Workers and Peasants of China,
and an excellent destination for "red" tourism. The whole trip down was shocked by the beauty of the scenery, was shocked by the heroes and heroines of the Revolutionary War. The greatness of the feelings at the same time, but also more feel that today's good life is rare and precious.
And "red" seems to be particularly associated with Jinzhai, this red ridge highway is really deserved!
Highway introduction"China Red Ridge Highway" consists of 500 miles of Xianfengdao ancient driving line, red journey theme line and Martin Highway cross-country line three parts, the whole 800 miles, is Jinzhai focus on building the self-driving tour line. The driving conference set leisure tourism in one, enhance Jinzhai tourism and "China Red Ridge Highway" brand awareness and reputation.
Building the Red Ridge Highway initially, the local hope that the Red Ridge and the U.S. Blue Ridge Highway, the same as the famous characteristics of the tourist landscape road.
The reporter previously noted that some sections of the highway curves thrilling and exciting, so that driving enthusiasts called for addiction, there are also sections of the road through some of the paradise like leisure, occasionally encountered groups of pairs of cattle passing by, but also let a person intoxicated by the highway's rural beauty.
In accordance with the words of the Jinzhai Tourism Commission staff, the reason why the string of numerous attractions, and Jinzhai as an important source of the Chinese revolution in the background is closely related, and in addition to having a wealth of red tourism resources, thanks to the superior geographic environment, Jinzhai has the reputation of the last primeval forest in East China, and at the same time have Meishan, ringing the Hongdian two reservoirs, and the China Red Ridge Highway is not only a string of red military plaza, EYU and EYU, the Red Ridge Highway is also the most beautiful and beautiful. The Chinese Red Ridge Highway not only connects the famous red cultural attractions such as the Red Army Square, the EYA Memorial Park, the Tangjiahui Red Town, the old site of the Lixia Festival Uprising, and the Dawan Village, but also connects the famous natural ecological scenic spots such as the Paradise Walled City, the Meishan Reservoir, the Xiaonanjing Rural Tourism Poverty Alleviation Demonstration Area, the Chashan Flower Sea, the Longjin Stream, and the Tianshui Jian Rafting Area.
