I wouldn't dare drive on the Bawangling Mountain roads even if I were playing Temple Run.

The section from Baoshan Terraces to Shili Gallery is full of hairpin turns on narrow mountain roads. You have to use a 360-degree camera to navigate when cars approach from the opposite direction. Especially after passing Wangxia Village, the road conditions deteriorate sharply, full of potholes. I'm so proud of myself for driving down today. If you want to see kapok flowers, I suggest going directly to Baoshan Terraces or Changhua River Wharf. You can pass by Dazhang Reservoir, but there aren't many flowers there, so it's not worth a special trip. I recommend visiting Emperor Cave and Shili Gallery in the morning. It takes a while to get out of the mountains, and the mountain roads are not safe at night. In short, Changjiang is worth a visit if the weather is good and you have enough time. The Changhua River is so much like the Lijiang River, a shining emerald under the sunlight.
