Bamian Mountain Scenic Area is truly a place that makes people linger and forget to return

Bamian Mountain Scenic Area | My Spiritual Journey✨ 🏞 I arrived at the Bamian Mountain Scenic Area, located in the southern part of Longshan County, Xiangxi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Hunan Province. It borders Youyang County and Xiushan County in Chongqing to the west, with a unique location and stunning scenery. As soon as I set foot on this land, I was deeply attracted by its natural landscape. 😻 🌄 At the top of the clouds, there is the "Sky Prairie" and the "Hulunbuir of the South." Standing there, I saw an endless expanse of green, lush vegetation, and flat terrain, as if I had entered a dreamlike world. In the early morning, I witnessed the magnificent sunrise, with the red sun rising from the horizon, gradually illuminating the entire prairie; in the evening, the sunset painted the sky with brilliant colors, which was breathtaking. 🕳️ There is also the mysterious Swallow Cave, located on the southeast cliff of Bamian Mountain. The karst cave landscape inside the cave amazed me, imagining the stories of the Xiangxi bandits who once hid here, looking at the remaining bunkers, gunpowder kilns, and beds, as if traveling back to that turbulent era. 👀 Cup Rock, shaped like a giant cup, is over a hundred feet high, and the spring on top of the rock is even more magical. The ancient temple with its once-thriving incense made me feel the sediment of time. 🌉 The Self-formed Bridge is a masterpiece of nature, a single-arch natural stone bridge about 50 meters high, 20 meters wide, and 40 meters in span, along with the unique "Eight Views in One" landscape, which is truly astonishing! ⛰️ From the cliffs standing side by side on Xiyue Mountain, you can see the vast land of Sichuan and Shu, with the unique "One Line Sky" landscape that makes me linger and forget to return. 💐 The Seven Cliffs of Cloud Top, including Sansheng Cliff, Good Luck Cliff, Dream Fairy Cliff, Qingfeng Cliff, Zhiyin Cliff, Wangxiang Cliff, and Qifu Cliff. The terrain here is dangerous, the environment is secluded, with dense exotic flowers and ancient trees towering into the sky. There are also two clear springs that flow all year round, making it feel like a fairyland. In addition to the intoxicating natural scenery, the cultural landscape here is also full of charm. 🤩 🏕️ Lotaying in Tiantang Village in the northern part of Bamian Mountain was once the station of the Tujia tribal chief's army. There are also Yanchongying and Atuying, all bearing rich historical and cultural heritage. 🛡️ Gong'an Fort, also known as Bamian Outpost, originally named Jiajia Fort, was established in the early days of liberation to prevent the air drop of American and Chiang Kai-shek forces, making people feel the tension and perseverance of that special period. The climate here is also very pleasant, with no severe cold in winter and no intense heat in summer. The annual average temperature is 14.7℃, so even in summer, it doesn't feel too stuffy. 😃 🚗 As for transportation, I drove here myself, about an hour's drive from Liyegu Town, but be careful of a few turns and narrow spots on the mountain road. 🎫 As for tickets, you can consult the scenic area for specific prices. In short, Bamian Mountain Scenic Area is truly a place that makes people linger and forget to return. You must come and experience it, and I believe you will fall in love with it just like I did! 💕
