It was really climbing from the bottom to the top. In the afternoon, I entered the scenic spot. There were not many people before May 1st. Except for a sweat, it was all steps and there was almost no flat road. Finally, there were some flat roads half an hour away from the exit. We climbed faster, about 1 hour, and heavy rain fell in the middle of the day. There happened to be a small shop to hide from the rain. The aunt of the shop said that there was about half an hour to the exit. We continued to walk and suddenly it rained heavily. Don't expect any sun and rain along the way, and there are few toilets. There are about2-3 bathrooms all the way. Fortunately, I happened to encounter a mobile toilet with the door open. It was really embarrassing and hid in the toilet to avoid the rain. Hahaha, this experience is really profound. Finally, I took a 10-block scenic bus down the mountain at the door, about 20 minutes, and arrived at the door when I came in. Overall experience: the scenery is good, the plank road is narrow, there are few places to rest, only a few places have stone stools, there is no place to rest when many people, because there is no open place on both sides of the plank road to go down at all levels.
I went there two days before May 1st. There were very few tourists. The evaluation was good online, and the waterfall was physically exhausted. I chose the Shiliang Waterfall with my family. The scenic spot is relatively remote, self-driving, and the curved mountain road is full of fun for motorists. The scenic spot has been visited for 100 minutes, and the mountain road is generally relatively gentle, and there are about 400-500 steps up behind it. There was water all the way, and there were small fish when I first entered. The baby bought a net pocket on the way to fish for fun, but I never saw the fish again. Several waterfalls are still good, that is, there are more caterpillars on the road, and the baby is shocked. Affected her interest. Overall, if you want to stagger the large passenger flow, it is still a good choice.
With the baby, a total of 2h, 1h climbing stairs, 1h walking flat road, the road conditions are very good, the iPhone said to climb 96 floors. The water is very large, and there is water mist in the air near a little bit. It should be very comfortable in summer.
This waterfall is really high. It is really hard to go to the top. In order not to go down, take the bus back to Qiongtai Xiangu. The bus is ten yuan per person, half an hour, super far away. If it weren’t for the child in front, I couldn’t catch up. I returned the same way a long time ago. The weather is raining and smoky. I didn’t see the scenery. There was a big suspension bridge at the end. If the weather was good, it should be good. Before, my friend told me to take the bus and walk down, but the ticket inspector said no, it should be fine.
It is still worth seeing. I saw the Raiders. I started climbing the mountain from the Great Falls. After crossing the glass trestle, it is correct to go down the mountain from the valley. Much better physically. The scenery is very good.
Although it is artificial, the water output is really fragrant. While complaining about the artificial one, it still charges 100, and shouting at the big waterfall. The mountain is still being built. In recent years, when you go to the middle of the mountain to repair the real hole, you can turn around. Wait a few years. Other attractions on the mountain have been planned, and then spend your energy climbing! If there are elderly and children at home, the tickets can be discounted, you can rush directly, the attractions are not laborious, anyway, the panoramic view of the waterfall can be seen, and you don't have to climb to the top.
