Reached Xiaoqikong at 10:34, followed by an uphill walk, a bit tiring as it's uphill so you can see the small waterfalls along the way, rested and ate our own food at 12:04 (inside the scenic area, apart from the entrance, they sell snacks like grilled sausages, which are quite expensive); reached Wolong Pool at 13:31, truly beautiful. Since we kept stopping to take photos, we didn't have time for boating on Mandarin Duck Lake or rafting at Wolong Pool 🥹. Arrived at the scenic area exit at 15:09, took the No. 11 bus when full at 15:29, and got to Libo station at 15:48. Had dinner at 'Qiandashu Stall' after reserving in advance on Dianping, it was okay 😋 Day3 🚄 Guiyang North to Anshun West 09:22-09:52 Return 🚄 Anshun West to Guiyang North 18:28-18:59 Route: Lower part of Tianxing Bridge - Huangguoshu Waterfall - Doupo Pond Took the Huangguoshu bus when full at 10:03, arrived at the entrance of the scenic area at 10:48, because it was so crowded the bus took us directly to Tianxing Bridge area, then just asked the staff how to walk the lower part, which took 2.5h (there are many local residents selling food here, prices are quite reasonable~); reached the waterfall area at 14:01, walked down the mountain, didn't queue for the Water Curtain Cave as it was too crowded, after visiting took the elevator up the mountain, the waterfall took 1.5h; took the sightseeing bus to Doupo Pond at 15:30, returned at 16:42, reached the ticket center at 16:58 and took the bus to the high-speed rail station. For dinner, went to 'Yiluo Pot' to get a number, saw several other Luo pot restaurants nearby, didn't want to queue and randomly chose 'Pinwei Gold Medal Luo Pot', which was also delicious! Day4 🚄 Return from Guiyang North at 16:25 11. Arrived at the east gate of Qianling Mountain Park, it's really tough to climb! First went to the Giant Panda Pavilion, then saw many other animal pavilions along the way to Hongfu Temple to see 🐒, saw many wild macaques before even getting there, didn't want to climb anymore so headed down towards the west gate, lots of macaques on the way down, one even jumped on me and took my mineral water 😅. After reaching the west gate, it was super congested, had to walk a long way to get a taxi, finally got on a car at 13:30. 'Chen's Bean Rice' was not open, so chose 'Xindaxin Bean Rice Hotpot', which was also good 😋

Jiaxiu Tower, a must-visit spot in Guiyang. My best friend and I, however, have fallen in love with the waterside walkway by Jiaxiu Tower. Walking on the walkway, we see the sentiments of autumn scattered in the clouds, the wind, the water, the fragrance of flowers, the grilled fish... No need for deliberate adornment, autumn has become beautiful in the way we like. My best friend and I only need to filter out the complexity, embrace tranquility, and carry the autumn colors towards warmth.
