When Chongqing city is tightly wrapped by the autumn tiger, the 40℃ high temperature makes people unbearably hot. At this time, a cool place in the distance seems to be calling, that is Tianyi Valley in Huaying Mountain, Guang'an, Sichuan. Driving 90 kilometers from the main city of Chongqing, in less than two hours, it is like escaping from a steamer and breaking free from the shackles of the heat. Upon arriving at Tianyi Valley, the first thing that comes into view is a large parking lot that can accommodate hundreds of cars.

Walking towards the ticket center of the scenic area, on-site tickets are 85 yuan per person, and online pre-purchase can save 5 yuan.

After buying the tickets, on the few hundred meters journey from the ticket center to the ticket checkpoint, there are vendors selling various water play tools, sun protection equipment, snacks, iced watermelon, and drinking water, which can be chosen as needed. Entering the scenic area, after the ticket check, two waterfalls unfold like a picture scroll. The welcoming waterfall, tens of meters high and wide, rushes down, with thousands of water splashes and mist, attracting people to play in the water and take photos, becoming a popular check-in spot. Not far away, the Dusting Waterfall, formed by a huge mountain spring, flows continuously throughout the year, resembling a white duster. Continuing forward, the Old Dragon Pool Waterfall's water curtain hangs down all year round, forming a deep pool when the water meets the deep stream, unfathomable. There is a cave on the pool wall, sometimes making sounds like a dragon's low chant. The Thousand-Foot Waterfall flows straight down from the thousand-foot cliff, falling into the deep pool in the canyon, bringing a thrilling yet refreshing feeling with its high drop. The Ground Fissure Canyon, as the most intact fault fissure preserved in Tianyi Valley, is jagged and strange, with torrents cascading layer by layer in the mountain stream, stretching for hundreds of meters, forming countless flying waterfalls and green pools, a geological wonder. At the end of the scenic area, in the Tianxin Cave, the cave river is even more astonishing. At the entrance of the cave, a natural Buddha statue - a rare stone stalagmite in the world, naturally formed by water droplets calcifying over billions of years. Inside the cave, the dark river surges, and at the end of the cave, a waterfall accompanied by strong light falls from the sky, straight to the bottom of the pool, like thousands of horses galloping, majestic and magnificent, worthy of being the first cave river in Asia. In addition, stream descending is the only recreational activity in the scenic area. At the downstream end, put on the equipment, walk 15 minutes to the upstream starting point, play in the water along the stream, and walk down, with three platforms for diving along the way, the whole experience takes 2-3 hours. Huaying Mountain Tianyi Valley, with its clear mountains and waters, has more than 100 waterfalls and dozens of caves, with countless places to get into the water along the way. When you come here to play, don't forget to bring a pair of sandals or wading shoes, let the children catch shrimps and play with water guns in the stream, and fully enjoy this cool and pleasant time.

In the mountains of Linshui, Sichuan, there is a Chinese temple similar to Angkor Wat. People nearby call it Laolong Cave. Judging from the architectural style, it is at least 181 years old. There is an elephant carved on the right side of the gate, with a ruyi wrapped around its trunk. It means good luck and good fortune, and the carving is quite exquisite. According to the left-right symmetrical style of ancient China, there should be one on the left, but it has been destroyed. There is still a long way to go to protect cultural relics. Entering from the stone archway on the right is a natural karst cave. It is said that you can't reach the bottom even if you walk for several hours. Bats appear on the top of the cave all year round, and there is a dry Yinhe riverbed underground. If you are not a professional, it is not recommended to enter. It is worth mentioning that outside the cave is a clear stream flowing down the ravine from here, forming a group of waterfalls of different sizes along the way. If it is summer, it should be good to play water rafting here.

An hour and a half away from the main city, play in the water, fish, and see the Peach Heart Waterfall The hot summer season is here again, and it's time to play in the water. Are you wondering where to take the kids for some water fun? Drive an hour and a half from Chongqing, and you'll reach our destination this time - a secluded canyon with shallow riverbeds and gullies. You can drive right up to the water's edge. We chose a river area where the water was knee-deep to play in, while my husband, who enjoys fishing, went to a deeper spot nearby and caught some silver carp. Although not many, it was still very enjoyable. Upstream is the Valley of Heavenly Will, and if you want to see the turquoise Peach Heart Waterfall, you can go have a look. Because it rained, the water volume of the Heavenly River Waterfall inside the cave was enormous and very spectacular this time. There are also stream tracing activities available in the Valley of Heavenly Will. You can also enjoy spring water black bean flower rice, smoked sausage, and smoked ribs by the creek. There's a small shop inside that provides beverage supplies. Since it's a river channel, it's best not to camp overnight. But playing in the water and fishing is still possible.

It is a 4A scenic area, 85km away from Chongqing city area. The altitude of the scenic area ranges from 400m to 1000m. Within the 3km long canyon, more than 60 karst springs and caves have been discovered, as well as over 40 large waterfalls, among which ten are as high as a hundred meters. The waterfalls, karst caves, and springs are the three wonders of Tianyi Valley, which is known as 'Asia's number one cave river in the sky'. Tianyi Valley gathers the waters of thousands of peaks and gorges of Huaying Mountain into one stream, which, after meeting the fracture layer of the karst topography, forms a geological spectacle. The canyon is crisscrossed with ravines, fissures, caves, and hidden rivers leading to deep pools, adding endless mystery and charm to the gorge. A waterfall welcomes guests at the entrance to the scenic area; a natural waterfall directly opposite the main gate, tens of meters high, cascades down, stirring up thousands of snowflakes, as if greeting visitors; next to the waterfall stands a stele inscribed with 'Huaying Mountain Tianyi Valley'.

Huaying Mountain, the summit of the Sichuan Basin, stands between heaven and earth, with an altitude of 1704 meters. The natural scenery here is like a delicate landscape painting, with verdant peaks and misty clouds, as if it were a fairyland on earth. Dense green vegetation covers every inch of the mountain rock, making the entire mountain area a vibrant 'natural oxygen bar'.

The gate of the ancient temple is covered with moss and is located deep in the mountains due to its age. It is rarely visited by people. The cave is very cool, with natural air conditioning at 20℃, making it a great place to escape the heat in the summer. Coupled with various local legends, it is even more mysterious. There are three stone archways at the mountain gate of the Laolongdong Ancient Temple. There is a cave on the top of the stairs. There is also a cave next to it that passes through the mountain.

Yulin River runs through Lingshui County from north to south, it is the last beach of Yulin River, hence the name Yaotan. It is said that Emperor Jianwen of the Ming Dynasty once lived here, and it was renamed Yulin during the Republic of China. The town is located in the hilly area, where Yulin River and Baishui River cross the town, and the river in the territory belongs to the Yangtze River Basin. Yulin Town is a famous 'fruit town' in Lingshui, with a citrus area of more than 9,000 mu. 'Huatang Navel Orange' and 'Yulin Navel Orange' have won national gold awards many times and are sold to the northeast region, enjoying a long-standing reputation. Yulin River Xiaoshan Gorge, located in Yulin Town, Lingshui County, is formed by Yulin River cutting through Tongluo Mountain. The gorge is 6 kilometers long, consisting of Yingzui Gorge, Xian'nv Gorge, Xiluo Gorge and the narrow valleys in between. The narrow valley is 20-50 meters wide, with a height difference of 100-200 meters from the cliffs on both sides.

There are many historical sites in Yulin Town. Du Jingxian (1347-1440), the 'Du Tianguan' of the Ming Dynasty, was a native of Yulin Town. He served as the inspector for more than 20 years. He was upright and fair, and was known as the 'loyal minister of the former emperor'. After resigning from office, he returned to his hometown Longmentan (now Songbai Beach in Yulin Town), opened a school, and the poor students came to study one after another. He built a granary to relieve the people, presided over the construction of Guanyin Temple, and preached not to let the people be deeply moved. The remains of the school and the granary are still there. In the fourth year of Ming Zhengtong (1440), Du Jingxian died of illness at home at the age of 94. Yulin Town has the former residence of Du Jingxian with a deep cultural heritage, the sweet and juicy Huatang Navel Orange, and the beautiful Yulin River Xiaosanxia. Traveling here, I believe it will make tourists linger.

Chongqings Tianyi Valley Scenic Spot is only 50 kilometers away from Chongqing Jiangbei Airport, making it an excellent place for health and leisure. The water of Juhua Mountain is plunged into the water, and the mountains are sloping down, the ground is interlaced, and the dark river is horizontal and vertical. The waterfall is earth-shattering, the deep pool is as silky as it is, and there are even more wonderful wonders in the middle of the river and the heavenly Buddha! PS
