24th Road Turning

A relatively niche attraction, with historical and educational significance of the war of resistance. At present, you can't drive up. You can only take the sightseeing car in the scenic spot. The fun is reduced. You can rent a four-wheel drive motorcycle to drive up by yourself. There is a gun-fire experience along the way. The scenery of the observation deck is still very good.

Qinglong has an exciting red story, and this story happened in Qinglong County 24 road turn, once known as one of China's ten most beautiful roads, it was once strangely "disappeared" eight years later to be found. Twenty-four turns, as the name implies, it has 24 bends, this road according to the terrain of the mountain to repair twists and turns, like a dragon hovering between the mountains is very majestic and steep. The road is 4 kilometers long and 6 meters wide. The straight line distance from the first turn to the 24th turn is 350 meters, and the vertical height reaches 250 meters. During the War of Resistance Against Japan, this is the major artery of traffic in the Allied China, Myanmar and India theaters, and it is also a symbol of the unity of the Chinese American military and the resistance. It is also known as the lifeline of the war of resistance.

1. The twenty-four road is a section of winding mountain road, which is a lifeline for material transportation during the period of the Anti-Japanese War, which has made a great contribution to the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. Now the road has been rerouted and detoured, and this section is specially used for tourism and sightseeing. 2. The scenery is very unique and worth seeing.

On the 24th turn, take the first turn and take the battery car, and walk again on the 24th turn road. On the way, I saw the mark left by the rock wall of the road construction, and a historical public sacrifice grave on the roadside. The tour bus goes to the 24th turn, through the mountain scenic service center, take the scenic battery car special road up the mountain, and arrive at the 24th turn exhibition hall built on the opposite side of the 24th turn, about 1620 meters above sea level on the top of Qinglong Mountain. Get off the tour bus and walk into the gate of the exhibition hall. You have to walk uphill and climb the steps to reach the high platform of the exhibition hall. There are wooden plank roads and observation decks along the way. From the observation deck, you can see the whole 24-way turn road, snake-shaped, full of hillsides, and suitable for taking pictures. The exhibition hall on the top of the mountain is like a high-most-story carving castle. There is a statue on the big steps of the exhibition hall. One is the American engineers, the other is the road construction farmers at that time. They face the fire and light smoke. The sense of time and the atmosphere of life are strong. The creation is derived from a photo of the exhibition hall at that time. The 24-way Turning Pavilion is divided into four floors, with the background of the "Chinese People's War against Japan" and "World War Against Fascism", and in the form of a combination of the main exhibition area and the experience area, with graphics and text, comics, 3D technology, VR technology, dynamic demonstration, physical display, etc. Introduce and display "Qinglong Anti-Japanese War Culture" and "Road Building Past", "Colleges and Universities Relocated West", "Allied Aid", "Expeditionary Army Expedition" and other important historical events in Qinglong Anti-Japanese War period. From the fourth floor of the exhibition hall, you can climb the stairs to the roof platform, there is a circular platform on the platform, climb the spiral stairs to the platform. Standing on the platform, you can see the mountains and the twenty-four turns from a distance are like a picture unfolding before you. Select an angle on the rotating stairs, which is the ideal place to shoot twenty-four turns.

Qinglong 24-way turn is located on the edge of the national road G320 at the exit of Qinglong Expressway. Qinglong 24-way turn road is the image logo of "Staway Highway", and is the traffic artery in the Sino-Burmese-Indian theater during the period of the War of Resistance Against Japan. The anti-war materials vehicles transported by the "24th turn" are busy, and the 24th turn is steep, the road is steep, and the first turn from the foot of the mountain to the 24th turn of the mountain, the straight line distance is 350 meters, the vertical height is 250 meters, and the slope is 60 degrees. According to the "S" type of homeopathic construction, like a dragon hovering here, want to take off the sky leap, with the characteristics of male, strange, dangerous, steep. More than 80 years ago, US Army reporter John Albert, while traveling from Chongqing to Kunming through Qinglong, took pictures of the difficult transportation of American aid to China on the 24-turning mountain road. On March 26, 1945, this black and white photo was published in major overseas media, labeled as "24th turn of the Stilwell Highway in China" and attracted attention. Countless World War II historians traveled through Yunnan and Myanmar to find the location of this famous photo, but they found nothing. It was originally the name of Annan County (formerly Qinglong County) and the name of Vietnam, the French colony, and the National Government renamed Annan County to Qinglong County in November 1941. So Annan has been considered Vietnam. Until 2002, after Ge Shuya, a scholar who studied the history of Yunnan's World War II, went to Qinglong, Guizhou, to verify that John had filmed the 24-way turn in Qinglong, Guizhou. Now the 24-way turn is a scenic spot and can only walk in a bare car. The itinerary takes the sightseeing bus from the tourist reception center to the Turn 24 tourist service center located on the national road G230, and then from Turn 24 to Turn 24 to the Turn 24 exhibition hall and observation deck. The round trip is 22 kilometers, and the visit time is about two hours. Watching the twenty-four turns on the observation deck also depends on luck, not at any time can see, today is lucky, see very clearly.

Go by the way, the special trip is not worth it.
