Preface: Huangmansai Waterfall is Li Bai's "Flying Stream Straight Down Three Thousand Feet", is Su Shi's "A Raincoat of Smoke and Rain, Let Life Be as It Is", is climbing mountains and crossing ridges, and it is also worth it. The first time I came to Huangmansai, I drove myself. During the day, I lived in Huizhai Town, where there are many places to eat and drink. It takes 30 minutes to drive to Huangmansai. You can also stay at the nearby Jingming Resort Village, which should be quieter. On the way up the mountain, the peaks are towering, and I feel that to get rich, you must first build a road. It's like embarking on a rugged and steep pilgrimage road, isolated from the world. Be sure to concentrate and pay attention to safety. Because I woke up late, I ate a rice noodle roll in Huizhai and packed it up for my friends who were meeting me. At about 12:30, after eating and drinking well at the entrance of the scenic area (I brought a lot of dry food and water), I started climbing the mountain with my children. We walked, played, rested and ate along the way. Tips for visiting: 1. You can navigate directly to Huangmansai Parking Lot for 10 yuan. 2. It is best to wear hiking shoes or non-slip sports shoes, and you can also bring a pair of slippers. Of course, friends from Guangdong and Guangxi who are obsessed with slippers, please be sure to pay attention to safety and anti-slip when wearing slippers (for example, I wore slippers all the way up and down the mountain). 3. You can bring your own fishing net, not for fishing, but for children to play in the water. Because the ones sold in the scenic area are cheap but not of good quality. 4. It is not recommended to bring children who are too young, because climbing mountains is high, windy, and children have limited physical strength. It is recommended that children over 5 years old can try (a friend brought a 5-year-old baby, the baby bravely reached the top, but was carried down the mountain. Although the downhill road is steep, it is very gentle.) Everyone should bring their children out to travel according to their ability. 5. If you are an elderly person, you should also travel according to your ability. It is recommended that elderly people visit the valley. 6. The valley is full of peach and plum trees. It should be a different flavor in spring. 7. You can eat at the security check exit of the scenic area. There are a row of farmhouses, all of which are good. Recommended: A Reservoir Fish, one fish can be eaten in many ways, whether it is fish soup or braised, it is very sweet and has no muddy taste. B Roasted Chicken, a large one, is a specialty of farmhouses, all raised by farmers themselves, with delicious meat. C Ditch Snail, I forgot what kind of snail it is, it is really delicious, the meat is so tender that you want to order another portion to take away after eating. D Braised Eggplant, it is a purple, long eggplant, so delicious, not the kind of fat eggplant we barbecue in the city. E Grass Noodle Roll, what I said is a kind of jelly, the jelly here is made from the juice of grass noodle grass, not the kind of jelly we buy in the supermarket. Adding white sugar tastes great. F Mountain and River Tofu Flower, those who understand know 666. In addition, various dried goods, soup ingredients, free-range chicken, etc. can be purchased.
