Huanglong Scenic Area is a famous tourist scenic spot in Sichuan, attracting tourists from all over the world to visit, and tour guides must also do a good job of explaining to tourists. The following is a guide to Huanglong Scenic Area for reference only. Chapter 1
We arrived at Huanglong Scenic Area, known as the Yaochi on Earth. Huanglong, as the name suggests, has loess on the ground and clear water in the pond. It combines colorful pools, snow-capped mountains, lakes, canyons, forests, and rock peaks. How beautiful it is! According to reports, Huanglong Scenic Area is located in Songpan County, Sichuan Province, at the foot of Xuebaoding, the main peak of Minshan Mountain. It is mainly famous for the Huanglong Temple, a famous Buddhist temple. Got its name. It is a calcified mountain gorge about 7 kilometers long and 300 meters wide. It is surrounded by trees and secluded virgin forests. In the gorge, there are more than 3,400 natural jade Huaquan colorful pools running down the slope. There are large ones and small ones. Like a basin, a bowl, or a cup, the walls of the pool are made of topaz, exquisite and clear, making it look gorgeous.
The water in the pool is colorful, ever-changing, and clear and transparent, which makes people feel happy. Viewed from the air, in the vast primeval forest, the Yellow Dragon is like a giant dragon flying in the sky, and the layers of colorful pools are like the scales on the dragon's body, reflecting the snow-white lying peaks, the green forest and the clouds all over the sky. , colorful, dreamlike, and extremely magnificent. Legend has it that Huanglong practiced cultivation here and became an immortal. Therefore, this mountain and water have the spirit of immortality. Dayu of Huanglong County controlled the water, and he stayed here after his success, so that the wine could overflow. The beauty of the red and green Yaochi. It is famous for its "Six Wonders" of colorful pools, beach streams, snow-capped mountains, canyons, ancient temples and folk customs. It is known as "the holy land of wonderland and the fairyland on earth".
Huanglong Ancient Temple was built in the Ming Dynasty. It is located in Huanglonggou Scenic Area, covering an area of ??more than 1,000 square meters, and is a Taoist temple. According to legend, Huanglong of the East China Sea, who helped Dayu control the floods, retired to practice Taoism and became an immortal, becoming the real Huanglong. His body turned into ten miles of golden sand, and his lin turned into thousands of colorful pools. Later generations remembered his merits and built Huanglong Temple. Huanglong Temple has Luohan Hall, Middle Temple, Back Temple, King Yu Temple, etc. Now Luohan Hall is in ruins. The middle temple is a Buddhist temple, and Buddhist believers worship at all major scenic spots. The rear temple is dedicated to the real person Huanglong. The cave under the rear temple - Huanglong Cave has a natural calcified statue of the real person Huanglong. Huanglong Ancient Temple is a Taoist temple, and traces of Taoist culture can be seen everywhere in Huanglong Valley. At the entrance of the "Huanglong Cave", there is a dragon-shaped pine tree often hung with white hadas, which are offerings made by local Tibetan compatriots to the mysterious Huanglong Cave. There are also several "mani piles" at the entrance of the cave, with carvings on the blue stones. Reading the scriptures of Tibetan Buddhism, seeing many Buddhist believers worshiping devoutly in a place where Taoist masters practice is a typical representative of "the complementarity of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in Chinese folk religious culture", which cannot but be said to be a miracle. Everyone, follow me and walk forward. Please pay attention and drive slowly! In front of you is the Huanglong Temple. The Huanglong Temple Fair held here every year from June 12th to 15th of the lunar calendar is unprecedentedly grand.
Look, we have arrived at Caichi Lake! Under the sun, the surface of the calcified Caichi Lake is sparkling, and the water pearls are beating crystal clear, making it extremely magical. Photos cannot show the unique dynamics of the scenery here, and photography cannot express its infinite vitality. Only by visiting the scenery in person can you appreciate the beauty and wonder of the human world! Well, we have stopped here. You can break up the tour and take more pictures. Ah, don’t miss the beautiful scenery here! Chapter 2

Dear friends:
Hello everyone! Welcome to Huanglong. Now let me introduce Huanglong to you.
Huanglong, located at the foot of Xuebaoding Mountain, the main peak of Minshan Mountain in Pan County, is one of the first batch of national key scenic spots announced by the State Council. In 1992, it was listed as a U.N. World Natural Heritage together with Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area. directory. Huanglong Valley is about 7 kilometers long, with a scenic section of 4.7 kilometers and a width of about 1-2 kilometers. The scenic area is between 3145 meters and 3575 meters above sea level, with an average longitudinal slope of 8.7. The formation of Huanglong landscape is directly related to a spring flowing out from the watershed at the top of the ditch. The spring water is rich in calcium carbonate and flows down the slope without a fixed river bed. As the stream flows down the slope, calcium carbonate material gradually precipitates, forming a calcified landscape with a milky white and light yellow tone. Because the slopes of the upper and lower sections are relatively gentle, calcium carbonate springs are blocked and deposited, forming layers of pools like jade. Geologically, they are called spring platforms. The middle section of Huanglong Valley is a sloping milky yellow calcified sedimentary belt about 1.5 kilometers long, which is called "Jinsha Pavilion". The Huanglong landscape is mainly characterized by snow-capped mountains and forests guarding numerous calcified colorful pools of various shapes. People cannot use words to describe the beauty and ingenuity of these colorful pools, so they can only respect them as "human wonder pools".
Huanglong is called Huanglong Temple by people who have passed through the clouds because during the Ming Dynasty, soldiers and horses stationed in Songpan built and improved three temples in the ditch: Longqian Temple, Middle Temple and Back Temple. Now the former temple has disappeared, only Fengyin Hall remains in the middle temple, and there is only one courtyard in the back temple. The name "Huanglong" is based on two ancient legends: one is that when Dayu was controlling floods, a Yellow Dragon carried a boat to help Dayu dredge the Minjiang River, and stayed in the Huanglong Valley after arriving in Songpan.
"Songpan County Chronicle" records: "Yu controlled the floods to Maozhou, and Huanglong carried a boat to help Yu control the floods. From Maozhou up, there was the Minjiang River... Later, Huanglong left to practice Taoism, leaving five-color landscapes in the world, and people built temples year after year. Worship." Another theory is that in ancient times, a real person named Huanglong practiced Taoism here and became an immortal. In order to commemorate the real person Huanglong, later generations built Huanglong Temple in the ditch. There is a similar record in "Songpan County Chronicles": "Huanglong Temple, built by Ming Dynasty military envoys and horses for pilgrimage, is also called Xueshan Temple. It is said that Huanglong practiced Taoism here, hence the name. There are three temples in the front, middle and back, with palaces and pavilions facing each other. Five miles away.”
Both records are derived from legends, so of course there is no need to explore the caves to find out which one is true and which one is false. But what is certain is that there was Huanglong Valley first and then Huanglong Temple. The name "Huanglong" must be related to the scenery in the ditch. Therefore, this tour guide still calls it "Huanglong" Scenic Area. Next we start the tour of Huanglong.
The small river passing by the entrance of Huanglonggou is the source of Fujiang River. After crossing the Fuyuan Bridge and entering the ditch along the forest path, the first set of cascade pools that greet visitors is named the "Welcome Pool". It consists of more than 100 colorful pools with blue as the main tone. The pools are of different sizes and shapes. The mountain stone paths twist and turn around the pools, welcoming tourists into the scenic area and sending them to the depths of the scenic area. There are towering old trees and colorful flowers around the pond; the embankments of the pond are made of jade and agate, exquisite and clear. The water in the pool is clear blue and green. The sun shines through the gaps between the trees on the lake, changing the colors of yellow, green and blue. The breeze blows, and colorful ripples appear in the pool, which is particularly beautiful and moving. This is the first sight of the "Huanglong Colorful Pool" that people marvel at.
After bidding farewell to the welcome pool, we stepped onto the pedestrian platform made of wood. We saw a sheet of clear water rushing out of the dense forest in front of us on the left, and then from a cliff about 10 meters high and 60 meters wide. It cascades down along the undulating cliffs, forming dozens of cascading waterfalls. Some are like curtain waterfalls hanging high, with steaming clouds and mist; some are like broken pearls, rolling down in strings. The cliff behind the waterfall reveals the golden yellow-based calcified crystal surface, making the waterfall even more majestic. If it encounters the afterglow of the setting sun in the morning sun, the waterfall will change into different colors, like colorful clouds spreading before our eyes. Therefore, people gave it a poetic and picturesque name "Falling Waterfall". The colorful pool at the top of the waterfall is not only the water source of the waterfall, but also a completely different landscape from the waterfall. The waterfall is so brilliant and unrestrained, while the colorful pool looks extremely peaceful and tranquil. Under the uncanny workmanship of nature, they together form a harmonious and perfect landscape of movement and stillness.
Slowly walking through the slope of "Flying Waterfalls and Flowing Glory", wandering by the colorful pools, and unknowingly arrived at the second step of Huanglonggou. Lying in front of tourists is a creamy yellow cliff about 40 meters wide and 10 meters high. The thick calcification layer on the surface of the cliff looks like a mantle or a hanging waterfall, which is very magnificent. The stream overflows on the cliff surface, spreading like a thin layer of gauze on the cliff and falling into the golden pool. There is a cave at the lower end of the rock wall, with a height of about 1 meter and a width of about 1.5 meters. The curtain waterfall in front of the cave looks like a string of pearls hanging down, and the scenery inside the cave is vaguely visible. Densely packed stalactites blocked the way 1 meter into the cave, and no one had yet explored how deep the cave was. According to research by geologists, the cave was an outlet of an ancient glacier. Because it is ancient and mysterious, local people say that it was a place where immortals used to purify themselves in ancient times, so it was named "Body Washing Cave". Legend has it that if a mortal wants to practice Taoism, he must first go into a cave naked to purify himself, just like the popular practice in Han areas where he must take a bath before fasting. This "holy and pure" body washing cave is made of calcified material crystallized. The natural spring water flowing down in the cave can wash away past sins and systemic diseases, and obtain a holy body. Because the body-washing cave is full of mystery, local folklore also says that infertile women will be happy to have a baby after washing in the cave. This legend is quite attractive, so there are still many people trying to go in, including not only Chinese people, but also foreigners. However, I would like to advise everyone that those who are not physically strong should not go into the cave to try it easily, because although the cave is clean, it is damp, cold, and cold. Those who cannot withstand this "test" will not only fail to achieve "purification" Instead, you will suffer from diseases.
Climbing over the calcified cliff, visitors suddenly see a vast sloping calcified landscape. This is the calcification flow known as the "golden sand pavement". It is about 1,500 meters long and about 100 meters wide. According to relevant experts, this is the largest and most colorful landscape of its kind found in the world. The karst layer on the slope is uneven, and the color is mainly golden yellow, with occasional milky white, gray, and dark green plates embedded in it. A thin layer of clear water ripples on the slope. Because the water flow is affected by the scaly calcification layer on the slope, it forms unpredictable silver ripples, like a golden river pouring jade. Clusters of water willows and shrubs scattered on the calcified slopes struggle with strong winds and currents with extremely tenacious vitality, telling the ancient history of the landscape. Climbing to the top of the Jinsha Pavilion and looking down at the entire calcified slope, you can see that the sides are low, there is a ridge in the middle, and the surface is scaly, like a yellow dragon lying prone on the slope. By now, you must have thought that the legend about the "Yellow Dragon" originated from this slope-shaped calcification flow!
The bonsai pool on the left side of the lower half of Jinshapu is a group of A pool tribe consisting of nearly 100 pools. The colorful pools are stacked in layers according to the ups and downs of the terrain, and their shapes are changeable. But they are connected by dykes and sills, and have the same source of clear water; there are pools within pools, and pools within pools, just like a continuous string. The polycythemia treatment turns chaos into chaos. The green cypresses stand tall and tall by the pool, and the old stems are hanging in the air; the shrubs in the pool are mixed with flowers and plants, and they are like bonsais in the water. The community of comprehensive landscape pots and ponds, with trees and water reflecting each other, and clear water, indeed has a poetic artistic conception.
There is a group of pools located on the left side of the upper half of the Jinsha Pavilion. There are more than 80 large and small colorful pools, which are called "Mirror Reflection Pools". Because the pools are close to the forest area beside the ditch, and because they are as horizontal as a mirror, distant mountains and nearby trees, the bright sun and the bright moon, and other worldly scenery are clearly reflected in the pools for tourists to enjoy. Because of such a special environment, tourists not only enjoy the beautiful reflections by the pool, but also often use the water as a mirror to groom themselves, or use the camera lens to take pictures of the scenery in the water and their own faces to create a perfect reflection. Twins, don’t have any fun.
After leaving the mirror reflection pool and continuing upward, after passing the "Yingxian Bridge", you can see another group of colorful pools on the left hidden in a dense grove of sal trees, hence the name "Sala Reflecting Color Pool". The sala produced here is the cuckoo. According to statistics, there are more than 20 species of rhododendrons beside the colorful pond. Different varieties of rhododendrons have the same flowering period and different flower shapes and colors. Therefore, the azaleas beside the colorful pool bloom continuously from spring to summer. Some are as bright as pink, and some are as plain as white silk. They are soft and beautiful, reflecting in the pool. In autumn, the red leaves that have gone through the frost are like the red clouds in the sky reflected in the pond; in winter, when the water is exhausted, the jade-like ice flowers merge with the silver-covered colorful pond, which is quiet and elegant.
Continue going up, please see, there is a large group of colorful pools on the right side of the tourist road. Not only are they numerous, but they are also colorful and each one is gorgeous. It is named "Zhengyan Pool". There are more than 500 large and small colorful pools in the pool group. It can be said to be the largest first-class colorful pool group in Huanglonggou and one of the most colorful pool groups in the Huanglong calcified pool landscape. Why is it called "Zhengyan Pool"? It means that regardless of the shape, size, color, texture, etc. of the pools, each pool has its own uniqueness and beauty, and it really feels like competing for beauty. Judging from the size of the pond, some are as large as several acres, with sparkling waves; some are as small as a basin or saucer, and are exquisite and exquisite. Judging from the shape, some are shaped like lotus flowers, and some are shaped like willow leaves. There are thousands of different validity periods, and none of them are the same. Judging from the color, some water is light green, some is milky white, or shows various colors such as peacock blue, emerald green, goose yellow, light gold, etc., which are crystal clear and gorgeous. Judging from the texture, some pool embankments are shaped like golden helmets, and some pool ridges are as bright as silver scales, which are brilliant and beautiful. The underwater world in the colorful pool is more colorful, allowing visitors to enjoy this wonderful world created by nature.
In the trees opposite the Zhengyan Color Pool, there are also landscapes such as the "Qishu Liufang Pool" and the "Longbei Gold Waterfall". Because it is located in a remote place beside the ditch and far away from the tourist road, tourists Very patronizing. The section up from Zhengyan Pond to Huanglongzhong Temple is filled with forests and shrubs, and there is no landscape of colorful ponds. On the tourist trail, only Suyun Bridge and Jiexian Bridge greet passing guests.
The water in the pool swirled on its own, causing ripples on the surface. If you throw flowers, leaves, or even coins into the pool, you will continue to rotate with the clear water and slowly sink to the bottom of the pool. How is this rotating water flow formed? If you look carefully, you will know: there is a spring water gushing out from the bottom of the pool. The direction of the spring water rushing out of the ground is exactly at a certain angle with the pool wall. The spring water rotates with the pool wall, driving the water in the pool to follow. , because it caused the aforementioned wonders, the name "Turning Flowers and Washing the Jade Pond" came from this.
The journey to Huanglonggou Scenic Area ends here. If you are still interested, you can climb to the top of the Jade Cui Peak at the back to have a bird's-eye view of the Yellow Dragon. You will have a panoramic view of the unique beauty of "towering jade peaks, a path of green pines welcoming the white snow; thousands of layers of golden sand paving the ground and clear water walking through the Yellow Dragon". There is a viewing platform built on the high slope on the left side of Huanglonghou Temple. From the platform, you can have a panoramic view of Huanglonghou Temple and the stone pagoda and the sea. It is an ideal choice for taking pictures.
When going down the mountain, we can go down the ditch from the tourist trail and trestle opened in the forest on the left side of Huangyougou. Not only can we enjoy the beautiful scenery of Huanglong Colorful Pond from a different angle, but we can also enjoy the wealth and corruption in the forest. Fresh air with oxygen ions. It will inject new vitality into your tired body, allowing you to leave this unforgettable "paradise on earth" with excitement and satisfaction.
