Chongqing people are so tight-lipped! They don't promote such a beautiful place.
In this autumn season, I embarked on a journey to find the beauty of nature - Huangshui National Forest Park. Located in Shizhu Tujia Autonomous County, Chongqing, Huangshui National Forest Park is a great place to escape the summer heat and enjoy the autumn leaves. With its beautiful mountains and clear waters, the park is like a gift from nature, allowing every visitor to find inner peace and harmony.
👣【Must-visit attractions】👣
- Longhe Canyon: The clear streams flow through the canyon, with lush trees on both sides. Walking through it, you can feel the breath of nature, as if you are in a paradise.
- Dafeng Fort: Climb up Dafeng Fort, and you can overlook the beauty of the entire park. The mountains are endless, especially at sunrise and sunset, the view is breathtaking.
- Qianye Grassland: Not only does it have vast grassland scenery, but it also offers a variety of outdoor activities, such as horseback riding and camping. It is a great place to experience Tujia customs.
🚕【Transportation guide】🚕
From Chongqing, it takes about 3-4 hours by car. You can take the G50 Shanghai-Chongqing Expressway to Shizhu Interchange, then turn to S105 Provincial Road to Huangshui Town.
If you don't drive, you can also take a long-distance bus to Shizhu County, then transfer to a local bus or taxi to the park. It is recommended to plan your trip in advance to avoid the crowds during peak holidays.
🏡【Accommodation recommendation】🏡
There are many different styles of accommodation in Huangshui Town, ranging from budget hotels to characteristic homestays. I recommend "Huangshui Renjia", a characteristic homestay. It not only provides a comfortable living environment, but also allows you to experience the local Tujia culture and taste authentic Tujia cuisine.
🍱【Surrounding food】🍱
When you come here, you must try the delicious food in the Tujia stilted houses. I recommend trying "Tujia bacon", "sour soup fish", and various wild vegetables made with local fresh ingredients. Each bite is an ultimate temptation for your taste buds.
🌺【Nearby attractions recommendation】🌺
After visiting Huangshui National Forest Park, you can also visit the nearby Lengshui Wind Valley Scenic Area or other attractions in Shizhu County.
Lengshui Wind Valley Scenic Area is known for its unique karst landforms and cool climate, making it a great place to escape the summer heat.
In short, Huangshui National Forest Park is a place worth exploring. Whether you are traveling alone or with your family, it will leave you with wonderful memories.
