The mysterious primeval forest at 30 degrees north latitude in Hubei has rare geological wonders

When traveling to Enshi, you must check in at the Pingba Camp National Forest Park in Xianfeng County. As a national 4A-level tourist attraction, it has beautiful scenery, a quiet environment, a forest coverage rate of 96%, and the highest annual temperature is only 22℃. It is known as the 'Western Hubei Forest Sea' and 'Natural Oxygen Bar'. The scenic area has currently opened two attractions: the primeval forest landscape at 30 degrees north latitude - Jigong Mountain, and the rare geological wonder in the world - Sidongxia. Jigong Mountain mainly highlights the original ecological features. Walking in the primeval forest, you can see huge ancient trees, sturdy vines, and fallen deadwood and moss scattered around for thousands of years... It's like a beautiful and mysterious natural painting. Tourists can also take the longest 'V'-shaped cable car in Asia - Jigong Mountain Cable Car, travel through the forest in the air, appreciate the forest sea and undulating peaks of the mountains, and feel the unique scenery of 30 degrees north latitude. The Sidongxia scenic area, which was formed about 140 million years ago, is a very rare cave community landscape and a rare geological structure landscape in the world. A canyon in the scenic area passes through the mountains of four mountains, forming four caves of different sizes and shapes, not only conveying the magic of natural creation, but also containing the mysterious and ancient history and culture of the Tujia, so it has been called the 'Tujia Holy Land' since ancient times. Walking through it, the scattered moss, the cool and delicious mountain spring water, the interlaced light and dark karst caves, the winding paths in the forest, everywhere reflect harmony, beauty and magic. 'A wonder in ten thousand hectares of forest, four big caves are closely connected', is a poem written by tourists after visiting the Pingba Camp National Forest Park, vividly depicting the beautiful scenery of the 'Sidongxia' scenic area. In addition, there is a glass plank road in the Sidongxia scenic area that is 88 meters long and has a drop of 300 meters from the bottom of the valley. The entire plank road is built along the cliff, with a bottomless cliff under your feet and a towering cliff above your head. Walking on the plank road, you can not only experience the thrilling excitement of standing in the air, but also watch the clouds rolling in the valley, as if walking in a dreamy fairyland.
