The first highlights: ten thousand years of canyon scenery
One hears ten thousand years? That is naturally a long time, through the nature of thousands of hammering and wind and rain erosion, through the vicissitudes of life and formed, is not after any artificial sculpture, is the God left us a valuable heritage. Before introducing the Dezhun Grand Canyon, let me first give you a brief introduction to the Wuling Grand Canyon. The Wuling Grand Canyon is located where the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau meets the Wuling Mountains, and was formed due to the collision of crustal movements. The entire canyon is highly valuable for geological research. And Dezhang Grand Canyon is the most wonderful, beautiful and representative section of Wuling Grand Canyon. China Geological Association and the United Nations geological experts in the Dezhun scenic area to investigate the geological structure of the canyon section, unanimously recognized that the geological section of the Dezhun scenic area for the world's only Cambrian geological structure of the standard "Golden Nail" section, in the geology, geography, has a very high value of scientific research. De ram Grand Canyon east of the Xuefeng mountain range, south and west of the Yungui Plateau, affected by the geomorphology of the terrain, the canyon in the northwest of the mountains and valleys, cliffs and steep walls, the southeast of the open and flat, the peaks alone.
The eastern part of the canyon is covered with the ancient Aurignacian strata, and the rocks in the strata are mostly gray sandstone, black shale, and gray-white carbonate rock. The central and western part of the canyon is a huge thick Paleozoic Cambrian strata, and the rocks are mostly gray or dark gray dolomite and limestone. So you will understand why most of the rocks in the scenic area of Dezhan are gray or black shale with flakes, and you can see many trilobites and ancient jellyfish fossils on the rocks laid in the cultural square in the center of Dezhan Scenic Area, which shows that Dezhan Grand Canyon was once a primitive ocean six or seven hundred millions of years ago, and then with the crustal movement, the seawater rises and gradually turns into a land, and after the natural wind and rain washed away, the sea washed away. Nature's wind, rain and snow scouring and erosion, slowly formed the unique geological landscape of the present Dezhan Grand Canyon, which is why the Dezhan Grand Canyon is experts called the "Ten Thousand Years Grand Canyon".
You may ask, that the geological characteristics of the tamping is not the same as Zhangjiajie, we see the mountains of Zhangjiajie, there is no need to go to see the mountains of the tamping, if you think so that would be a big mistake, tamping's geological characteristics and Zhangjiajie's similarities, but there is a fundamental difference between the Zhangjiajie rocks are quartz sandstone, the peaks and forests of landforms quite masculine, while the tamping is limestone rock, and the tamping is the limestone rock. The rocks in Zhangjiajie are quartz sandstone, and the peaks and forests are quite masculine, while those in Drama are limestone. The peaks and forests are just like the Miao Aya in the scenic area, which is full of graceful beauty. (There are nine small canyons in Dezhun***, of which the three canyons of Jiulong Stream, Ramming Gorge Stream and Yuquan Stream are the most famous.) There are more than 20 waterfalls in the scenic area with a height of more than 190 meters, among which the Liuzha Waterfall, with a vertical height of 216 meters, is the waterfall with the highest difference in China, and it was awarded as one of the "Ten Favorite Waterfalls of Chinese Tourists" on April 23rd 2011, and it is one of the ten favorite waterfalls of Chinese tourists. It was named one of the "Top Ten Favorite Waterfalls of Chinese Tourists" on April 23, 2011.
The second highlight: the thousand-year-old Miao village style
The Miao village is a major feature of De ram, where the folk customs are exceptionally rich. I summarized that the Miao have five beauties: the beauty of faith, the beauty of love, the beauty of clothing, the beauty of song and dance, and the beauty of life. Due to the relationship of time, I will not introduce one by one, De ram also has the "world drum township" reputation. So here, the drum dance is very popular! There are so many different styles and so many people who are good at them that if you just pick up a little girl with a snotty nose in De rammer, she may perform a set of drums for you that will make you marvel at the drums. There are two types of Miao drums: those for celebrating the New Year and those for celebrating the gods. What do they mean? The drums performed during major festivals and welcome guests are the New Year celebration drums, while the drums performed during rituals are the God celebration drums. In De Ram Miao Village, now has been out of 5 generations of Miao drum king, 2 generations of monkey drum king (simple explanation of the monkey drum), which the first generation of Miao drum king Long Yingtang was received by Chairman Mao, Premier Zhou Enlai's reception and awarded the title, De Ram Miao drums have been in Singapore and other places to ring out of the country, to the world.
The third highlight: a hundred years of road and bridge wonders
Talking about the road and bridge wonders of Dezhan, what is the first thing that comes to mind? Is it the "World's First Suspension Bridge" located over the Dezhan Grand Canyon? Dezhun large suspension bridge is the world's largest steel suspension bridge across the length of the canyon, is the Hangzhou-Rui Highway across the Dezhun Grand Canyon of the mega bridge, located in the Shuozhai 335 meters above, using 71 pairs of suspension ropes. Span of 1,176 meters, an investment of 1 billion, creating four "world's first": First, the main span of the bridge is 1,176 meters, across the canyon suspension bridge to create the world's first; second is the first time to use the tower, the beam is completely separated from the structural design, the world's first; third is the first time to use rock-anchored sling structure, and the use of carbon fibers as prestressing tendons, the world's first; fourth is the first time to use rock-anchored sling structure, and carbon fibers as prestressing tendons
The bridge is expected to be opened to traffic at the end of March 2012 for the first time in the world; fourthly, it is the first time to adopt the "rail cable slip method" to erect steel truss girders for the first time in the world.
In addition to this incomparable spectacular suspension bridge, there are roads, because here there is a section of the history of the road has been hundreds of years that is--Shuanzhai highway. Shiozhai highway is located in the northern slope of Shiozhai, known as "Shiozhai Tianzhen", is the western region of Xiangxi highway on the most dangerous barrier, the terrain of the danger, the ingenuity of the engineering design of the national highway in the first place.
Summary of the De ram and Qianzhou City, western Hunan region, bringing together the tourism of the seven most, that is, the highest difference between the flow of yarn waterfalls, the country's most world-class brand of celestial unity of a hundred years of road and bridge wonders, the country's most complete preservation of the Miao customs, the country's best-preserved one of the temple "Qianzhou Temple", the national non-material cultural heritage of the most concentrated and inherited heritage. Intangible cultural heritage is the most concentrated and the most inheritors settled in the place; the country's oldest, the most ethnic characteristics and unique doorway "three doors open, the country's most virile ancient city.
