In Qiaoshang Township, Huguan County, Changzhi City, Shanxi Province, you can not only enjoy the elegance and tranquility of beautiful ancient villages, but also enjoy the charming Gaoxia Pinghu. Especially in the ancient villages such as Qiaoshang Village, Pandi Village, Dongchuandi Village and Tinao Village, which are located in the hinterland of Taihang Mountain Grand Canyon, the beautiful scenery of the 800-mile Taihang Mountain is left here because of traffic congestion. In these ancient villages, you can not only appreciate the beauty of the valley and listen to the spring, but also witness the wonder and rigor of the nine lotus flowers and eight springs. Qiaoshang Township is a good place for natural sightseeing and eco-tourism, and also an excellent place for leisure and holiday.
The vicissitudes of geological landforms, strange and beautiful natural scenery and rich cultural heritage are located in Qiaoshang Village in the depths of Taihang Mountain, with both heroic mountains in the north and beautiful waterscape in the south.
In Qiaoshang Village, besides becoming a unique farmhouse inn, the famous Baquan Gorge is located in the north of Qiaoshang Village. Because there are eight springs in the canyon, two springs in the middle of the canyon are all eight springs, and the number of three springs is equal to eight, so it is called Baquan Gorge, which is known as "world-class top tourism resource" and "the first male gorge in Taihang".
Baquan Gorge, as a magnificent and rich high-level scenic spot in Taihang Mountain Grand Canyon, contains the essence of Taihang Mountain, and is also known as a godsend and concentrated bonsai. The highest altitude here is1700m, and the lowest altitude is 600m. There are more than 300 springs and more than 30 waterfalls here.
Overlooking the whole area of Baquan Gorge, it stands on tiptoe in the north-south direction and gradually rises from south to north. Julian in the canyon is like a flying pterosaur. Years of endless rivers, wide and narrow beaches, overlapping terraces, steep slopes, winding cliffs, strange peaks and rocks, waterfalls where springs gather, or bright or dark caves, are surrounded by green, which constitutes its extraordinary scenery.
Walking into the Taihang Grand Canyon, I came to Pandi Village, Qiaoshang Township, deep in the canyon, as if I had entered another world. Walking in the village is like going back in time. Three hundred years ago, the pine trees in Sansheng Temple have grown into towering trees, and the tunes of that year can still be heard from the ancient stage. Who pushes the stone mill beside the bluestone mill? ...
When you walk into Pandi village, the first thing you see is the fish fossils flying from the deep sea. The fish fossils are embedded in a boulder with a height of more than 10, which is grayish white, with a head and tail length of about 3 meters and a width of about 1.5 meters. Fine texture and clear lines, just like playing with water. In the center of the fossil, several reddish fish scales are concave and convex, within reach. It is said that this fish fossil and dinosaur are contemporary, even earlier than the mythical era of Shangdang.
There is another scene in Pandi village, which is rare in China. Locals call it an isolated mountain. An isolated mountain stands behind the village, helpless and expressionless, which is a must. This is a lonely and strange mountain. There are ancient plank roads, watchtowers, library towers and 100 kinds of trees, shrubs, flowers and grasses on the mountain, which are full of vitality and primitive charm. It takes about two hours to go around the mountain. It takes about three hours to climb this narrow mountain road.
There is a tomb on the top of Gushan Mountain, which is said to be the tomb of Yan Ying, a doctor of the State of Qi in the late Spring and Autumn Period. Yan Zi lived in seclusion here for a long time. In this remote ancient village, there is still a plaque that says "Yanzi's legacy".
Going deep into Pandi village is like walking into a world of stones, and a heavy and ancient breath comes to my face. Here, almost everything is made of stone, the house is made of stone, the road is paved with stone, the pond foundation is made of stone, the canal is made of stone, and the fence in the village and the ridge foundation of the vegetable garden are made of stone. There are also stone bridges, stone piers, stone mills, stone mortars and stone furnaces ... It is said that there are 65,438+09 stone courtyards in Pandi village 300 years ago.
Leaving Pandi Village, less than two kilometers away from the ancient village is Hongdu Gorge, a beautiful and magical tourist attraction, a fine scenic spot of Taihang Mountain Grand Canyon and a world-class natural scenic spot recognized by experts.
It is understood that five water sources in the upper reaches of Hongdou Gorge and more than 300 springs in the valley converge, and more than 30 waterfalls and lakes of different shapes and sizes descend along the river bed, forming a spectacular scene with waterfalls 100 feet high, pools deep in thousands of feet and lakes ten miles wide.
The mountains and rivers in the canyon are harmonious and the red beans are harmonious and warm. There is also a rare yew botanical garden area. The mountains, rivers, grasses and trees in Hongdu Gorge embody the harmony of Yin and Yang, the combination of ancient and modern, and the harmony between man and nature. The main scenic spots are Qi Xianyu, Triassic Lake, Ziyunling, Sawtooth Mountain, Longan Spring, Digu Temple, Persimmon Garden, Hongdu Valley, Botanical Garden and Gooseberry Forest. Enter the countryside along the gorge, such as falling into the gallery, competing with thousands of peaks, overlapping waterfalls, lakes and mountains, and colorful. It can be said that Hongduxia and Pandi Village constitute the pastoral scenery of people with small bridges and flowing water, and are ideal places for urbanites to return at any cost.
In addition, there is a river called Gouhe between Pandi Village and Dongchuandi Village. According to experts' research, Jiaogou River is about180km away from Yin Ruins, which is the upper reaches of Qihe River. Its water along Qihe River moistens the ancient land of Shang and Zhou Dynasties. Therefore, Hejiaogou is also one of the cradles of Shang culture.
According to the local people, there lived a dragon protecting water and soil in Hejiaogou. In Baquanxia Scenic Area, there is also the Dragon Palace Cave, dedicated to the dragon gods who benefit the villagers. Because of the dragon spirit, people in the river corner ditch are outstanding. Clouds coming to the mountains are better, and clouds going to the mountains are picturesque.
Tinao Mountain is a mountain and the name of the mountain village. This natural village is located in the northwest of Qiaoshang Township. According to the characteristics of place names in Taihang Mountain area, ladder and brain refer to the precipitousness of the mountain, and the name of a village is all covered, which shows its majesty and precipitousness.

On the way from Qiaoshang Village to Tienaoshan Village, there is a dangerous road hovering between cliffs, named Taohuaqi. There is a local saying, "If you walk through a peach blossom, there will be a peach blossom root. When you climb the Peach Blossom Tower, you will have peach blossoms. " Every March, peach blossoms are in full bloom all over the mountain, and young people in this area will climb to the Peach Blossom Garden to find their own peach blossom luck. Nowadays, climbing peach blossoms has become a local custom.
