Scenic Spot Guide
Sandie Ridge Waterfall: "The legendary fairy waterfall"
It is said that when Nuwa was refining the five-color stone to mend the sky, she accidentally made a hole in the Milky Way, and the water of the Milky Way poured down. Nuwa pointed three times with her jade finger, and thus formed the beautiful Sandie Ridge waterfall.
Bazhou Terraces
(Recommended for autumn harvest in September-October) Normally free, occasionally charged, 48 yuan/person for National Day last year (free from October 5th, because the rice was harvested in advance), no parking fee. The golden rice fields during the National Day holiday in autumn are recommended, which can be photographed as a golden piece.
Two viewing platforms
Along the roadside, you can get off when you see the sign, and there is a turn on the road to the viewing platform, and you can see part of the terraces from a distance.
Climb up along the terraces, the view is more comprehensive, you need to pass through the village.
Pear trees and pomegranates are planted next to the terraces.
The scenic area is not mature, there are no toilets, and there is no food and accommodation for the time being~
Goose Spring Scenic Area
It is very photogenic in the morning and evening, and the details are very beautiful. The best time is 8-10 o'clock, and the play time is 1-2 hours.
On-site ticket booking is 48 yuan, free before 8:00 in the morning and after 19:00.
The source of the Detian Waterfall is beautiful with clear water, beautiful mountains, and a strong rural atmosphere. The water of Goose Spring never dries up all year round, the water is clear as a mirror, the surrounding mountains are like screens, and the scenery is beautiful. Enjoy lotus in May-June, and golden rice fields in September-October.
A small river meanders past, 100 meters deep in the deep, clear to the bottom, the water grass sways like silk along the current, ducks swim in groups on the water surface... Tao Yuanming's "Qianmo Intercommunication, chickens and dogs hear each other".
Detian Transnational Waterfall: "Waterfall on the border"
The Guichun River flowing from north to south is blocked by Putang Island in the middle of the river, causing the river water to roar against the rocks and rush down. The 270-meter drop, with three twists and turns, forms a three-level waterfall, which is surging and magnificent.
Quyang Lake: "Guilin on the Water"
Ticket: 0 yuan, you can charter a boat to visit (about 200 yuan), another way to visit is to cycle around the lake. Drive directly to Qizhen Wharf, there is a free parking lot. It is better to go in the afternoon, and it is against the light in the morning.
It's a bit like the lake version of Vietnam's Halong Bay, the high mountain reservoir of Guilin on the water. There are more than a dozen islands of various sizes, surrounded by rolling mountains, covered with lush trees reflecting the emerald-like
lake surface, more than a dozen beautiful Zhuang villages, immersed in the lake, enjoying the vast smoke and waves.
Jinxiu Ancient Town: "The most beautiful Zhuang ancient town on the border"
When night falls, the nightlife of Jingxi begins here. Through the wind and rain bridge of the ancient town, all the way to the Mountain Song Square, performances of all sizes are gathered, Zhuang opera, bonfire, folk songs, etc., adding a different color to this small town.
Gulong Mountain Grand Canyon:
"One water through three gorges, one drift through three holes", you must experience drifting in Gulong Mountain! It is recommended to drift freely, take pictures wherever you drift. If you want to seek exciting gameplay, you can also experience passionate drifting, which is one of the few in China that can wear a hundred-meter waterfall and underground dark river karst cave.
Tongling Grand Canyon
Located in Xinling Village, Hulun Town, about 32 kilometers southeast of Jingxi County. The scenic area gathers natural and cultural landscapes such as the 118.6m high Tongling Waterfall, cave waterfall, underground dark river, canyon stream, cave spectacle, ancient stone stack, ancient hanging burial, and primitive vegetation.
Transportation: It is within an hour's drive from Jingxi city area. Navigate to Tongling Grand Canyon, the road is quite easy to walk.
Catering: There are many farmhouses nearby, and there are many stalls selling drinks before reaching the exit of the scenic area, but they are not open in the off-season.
Adult ticket 115 yuan/person, transportation car from the exit to the entrance of the scenic area 10 yuan/person (it is recommended to take it, because it is all uphill roads, and there is nothing to see)
Practical tips:
Bring an umbrella, bring a raincoat, it is best not to bring frame glasses (the water mist is relatively large and it is not good for taking pictures).
Wear non-slip shoes that are not easily wetted by rain. As soon as you enter the scenic area, there is a long staircase going down. There are many stairs. The ground near the cave is slippery with water. Be careful to walk slowly. Sports shoes are the best.
It is best to wear long pants and short sleeves (to prevent mosquito bites). If you want to walk under the waterfall and get close to the waterfall, it is best to wear a full-body raincoat. It is useless to hold an umbrella inside.

There are steep canyons, clear streams, green vegetation. We follow the canyon trail and enjoy the waterfalls (although not the peak, not spectacular), strange stone forests, mysterious caves, and it is worth it. The geological structure of the psychic canyon is also more complicated, we have seen the traces left by the crustal movement, faults, folds, joints, geography becomes concrete in front of us.
The canyon worth a visit, personally feel more interesting than another canyon. There are not many people, and there is no need to take a car! If it is hot, it is estimated that it is still a bit stuffy. The entrance and exit are separated, and it is a big circle.
There are spectacular waterfalls and winding streams. The most amazing thing is the strange scenery in the cave. There is a cave sky. A waterfall of tens of meters high, flying down the rock wall from the top of the cave, falling into a pool, and the psychic waterfall is integrated, and finally sinks into the underground dark river. It is shocking. The Tongling Grand Canyon has the original ecological natural landscape. The ancient trees in the scenic area are towering, the interlocking, the water system is rich in resources, the waterfall is particularly spectacular, and the canyon is high and deep!
In winter, it was still raining and foggy. My husband was still hesitant to go in at the door. I said it was coming. After entering, I found the ghosts of nature. The water flow to the waterfall is small, but standing under the waterfall accompanied by the sound of rumbling water, looking up, it is still very shocking! My husband held my hand and said, "It's a worthwhile trip!" I also lamented how Xu Xiake found this place back then? It is especially important to remind that it is not suitable for elderly people who cannot climb the mountain. From the entrance to the waterfall, you have to go down the 1.5 kilometer ladder, and you have to go up the stairs halfway to the exit, so you can have a 10 yuan shuttle bus. If you don't take the shuttle bus, you can walk the Panshan Highway of 1.5 kilometers to the parking lot.
I think it is still very worth going to the scenic spot. There are caves in the canyon and waterfalls in the cave. It was still cool when we went. It is estimated that the weather is hot and the canyon should be very stuffy.
The steps that entered the gate of the scenic spot were quite steep, and there were trekking poles with a point. The road to the bottom of the valley was smooth. The waterfall landscape was beautiful and spectacular. The magnificent scenery inspired many tourists' poetry and chanting "Flying down 3,000 feet, Suspectedly, the Milky Way fell for nine days"😁😁 The water curtain hole under the waterfall is even more unique. The strontium stalactites of various shapes in the caves that are passed on the return journey also make people sigh the magic of nature. The return road is relatively flat. You can take a shuttle bus after walking through the cave. The price of the scenic spot is reasonable. The photo is ten yuan. Fruits, sugarcane juice and various small souvenirs are also good and cheap. I personally like the Tongling Grand Canyon at the San Die Mountain and Detian Waterfall that I went to behind. Come back from here, and hand in 300-character compositions easily at the beginning of school 🤭
It is still spectacular to take the bamboo row to the waterfall! It is worth coming once. There is a slide up the mountain. It is called a flying blanket. It is equivalent to a cargo conveyor belt. Sitting on the top, it is unreasonable! At the end, it may be more embarrassing! The slide down is better and the speed can be controlled! In short, it is not that there is no money, adults are an experience! Children like it better!
The scenic spot is good, all aspects of management are OK... worthy of the 4A scenic spot, I don’t feel particularly tired after the trip. After the tour, the key is to take the scenic car to come out. It is more labor-saving. It is more favorable to buy online in advance... The scenery is still very special, it is worth a visit!
