The stunning scenery of Xiyagou Village in winter

🌟Highlights: Xiyagou Village: Xiyagou Village is a great place to see ice hangings in winter, and it is very close to Wangmang Ridge, another tourist spot. The hanging highway in Xiyagou Village is dangerous and the scenery is stunning. The commercial street in Xiyagou Village has many newly built ancient-style buildings, small bridges and flowing water, but personally, I think the scenery is better in summer than in winter. There are many farmhouses in the village that offer accommodation and restaurants, which are very good and cost-effective. I highly recommend the farmhouse, and the hanging highway is highly recommended (but you can't drive here, you can only see it when you take a sightseeing car down the mountain at Wangmang Ridge), and you can decide for yourself about the commercial street in the village. 🌟Highlights: In addition, you can also pass by the Spiral Cave on the way here, and experience the kilometer-long tunnel connected to the cave.

Holes in steep cliffs of nearly 90 degrees, and then connect these caves - this is the famous wall road in Guoliang, Henan. It seems very simple to say, but to build such a road on the cliff, it is absolutely necessary to fight and fight. Guo Liangs wall-to-wall road lasted for five years from 1972 to 1977. All of them were hand-finished by the villagers of Guoliang Village. This Yugongs general struggle of the mountain finally penetrated the cliff on the cliff of Taihang Mountain and even became The local landscape - this is one of the "world's most dangerous roads" and one of the "most peculiar 18 roads in the world". Guoliang Village is also famous for this walled road. The village with stone-filled houses on the Taihang Mountain is also favored by many directors. Many film and television dramas like "Qingliang Temple Bells" and " Going out of the horizon and "lifting your hands" are all here. When we arrived, at the time of the spring blossoms, Guo Liangcun was full of mountains and flowers, and many students who studied painting sketched here.

Guoliang Village is situated on the cliff of a steep mountain, with dangerous terrain and beautiful scenery

Guoliang Village is under the jurisdiction of Shayao Township, Huixian City, Xinxiang City, Henan Province, located 60 kilometers northwest of Huixian City, Xinxiang City, Henan Province, deep in the Taihang Mountains of Shayao Township, bordering Kungshan Village, Gujiao Township, Lingchuan County, Jincheng City, with an altitude of 1000 meters.

It is famous for its unique water scenery and the 'cliffside highway' of the canyon, and is also known as the 'Pearl of Taihang'. It has now become the first sub-scenic area of the national 4A-level scenic area, Wanshan Mountain.

Autumn in Guoliang Village

The autumn wind sweeps over the mountains and waters of the southern Taihang Mountains, instantly transforming it into a flurry of red leaves. It's dreamlike in the misty fog, walking through the red leaf forest, with orange, yellow and red leaves dazzlingly bright. Layers of bright yellow leaves fall with the wind, and the distant hillside is sketched out with a colorful oil painting of enchanting red, bright yellow, and deep green. Looking around, you are surrounded by mountains, with a majestic momentum and unique scenery. Everywhere is a scene, and all eyes are paintings. The village hanging on the cliff in the depths of the Taihang Mountains, with houses built against the mountain. The village is a few meters away from a hundred-meter cliff, and the mountain peaks behind the village soar into the clouds. The primitive and simple natural scenery of Guoliang Village attracts many famous directors, and nearly a hundred films and TV dramas have been shot here. It is known as the 'No.1 Village in Chinese Film and Television'! The unique experience of crossing, the cliff-hanging highway is built along the mountain, with complex road conditions and winding roads, many 270-degree sharp turns, both exciting and scenic, it itself has also become a part of the wonder.

Some time ago, I went to the Taihang Mountain at the junction of Henan and Shanxi with my friends. For a total of more than 9 days, I can say that I have climbed many places in the Taihang Mountains, whether it is a canyon or a mountain, but the most impressive thing is this hanging in the cliff. The village above can be said to be one of the most dangerous villages in Henan and even China. This is Guoliang Village in Shayao Township, Huixian County, Xinxiang County, Henan Province. When it comes to Guoliang Village, many people may have heard of it, especially those who love to travel by car because there is a very famous one here. The cliff road is also one of the most dangerous roads in China, and this cliff road was built by Guo Liang people to enter the village. Guoliang Village is located in the depths of Taihang Mountain. It is located at the junction of Shanxi and Henan. For a long time, the traffic here is inconvenient. The important mountain is isolated from the outside world. It is like an isolated paradise, only living here. Dozens of people, the total population is only a few hundred people, and the village where they live is the place that can be seen on this cliff, above a cliff about 1000 meters above sea level. Before the construction of this cliff road, Guo Liangcun was one of the poorest and backward places in Henan. From here, I want to enter the county. It takes about one day, fifty or sixty kilometers, basically Going away, there is a lack of material here, and there have always been "four difficulties".

###Go to see the larger Huixian#"Thirteen strong men out of Guo Liang, hammer to do the chisel chisel too. Get through the stone wall, cross the millennium to wear a gallery", this ballad is right The best overview of the construction of the Guoliang walled road by the Thirteen Strong Men. Today, I walked through the walled road and listened to the story of road construction that year. I couldnt help but admire Guo Liangs courage and perseverance.

Xinxiang · Tongmeng Ancient Town

TongmengAncientTown Yuanjia Village The park is not big but it's still nice to stroll around, we went there on a Friday night when there was no market, which made it seem a bit boring, but it should be lively on Saturday and Sunday nights, I recommend going at night, the night view is beautiful, but there are a lot of mosquitoes at this time The must-try food in the park personally recommended: Dried vegetable baked bun! This really exceeded my expectations, only six yuan and the sauce smeared on the bun is really tasty! You must try it! Candy cake is also quite popular, and while there are no queues at other stalls, there's always a long line at the candy cake stall, I personally think it's quite standard, one per person is about enough, it's not very sweet, but you'll still feel a bit sick after eating a big mouthful of brown sugar at the end The handmade yogurt is also quite delicious, but you need to eat it quickly, I only had a few bites and then carried it with me, by the time I got home it felt watery, I didn't know if it was still edible so I threw it away There are people taking wedding photos and portrait photos in the park, overall it's a nice place to take a walk

Tongmeng Ancient Town is really an excellent destination for a trip around Zhengzhou!

A friend said that a new market event has recently been opened, which sounds very interesting. More than 30 stalls each have their own characteristics, and the organizers are all craftsmen. The filigree enamel, leaf carving, pottery, and hand strings on the stalls must be exquisite.🎨📿 There is a concert at 19:30 in the evening, sitting under the big tree to enjoy the music, feel the power of music, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, it is simply a cure.
