Bingyu Valley: a rare karst landform north of the Yellow River, known as the "Little Guilin in the North"

Xianrendong Town, Zhuanghe City, Liaoning Province is located more than 40 kilometers north of Zhuanghe City. Listening to this name, you can imagine that it is a place with mountains, rivers and beautiful scenery. This is true. in this way.

The town is surrounded by mountains, with a forest area of ??320,000 acres, and a forest coverage rate of up to 70%. It is lush and green everywhere, with trickling streams, highlighting the true beauty of nature. Among them, the scenery The most beautiful place is a place called Bingyu Valley, which is a rare and well-preserved karst landform north of the Yellow River. The valley has rugged peaks, dense forests, clear river water and sparkling waves. It is known as the "Little Guilin in the North". With a good reputation, it has been developed into a national 4A-level scenic resort.

Arriving at Bingyugou by car, a fresh breath hit my face as soon as I got off the car. The roar of cars and the noise of people coming and going in the city were swept away. The lush trees all over the mountains and fields seemed like A natural oxygen bar makes the air so fresh that you feel comfortable all over after taking a breath.

When you enter the scenic spot, your eyes suddenly light up. Wherever you look, you can see steep peaks, clear rivers, mountains and rivers leaning against each other, and scenes blending together. From a distance, it looks like a beautiful landscape painting, full of... Poetic and picturesque. The beauty of Bingyu Valley is mainly distributed in the Yingna River and Xiaoyu River basins that flow here. Among them, the section of Xiaoyu River is the most beautiful. In order to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Bingyu Valley freely, my friend first took me to the Xiaoyu River and walked on it. We walked up a forest path hidden among dense trees under the cliffs beside the river.

The Xiaoyu River flows gurgling, winding around the mountain according to the terrain. It is as clear as a mirror. In the shallow water, the sand and stones on the bottom of the river, swimming fish, and aquatic plants are clearly visible. On the river, the flowers on the bank are clearly visible. , green trees on the mountain and blue sky, lying quietly on the water, with slight ripples looming from time to time, permeated with a dreamlike connotation.

This beautiful little bathing river is like a soft and elegant ribbon, draped on the body of the graceful girl in Bingyu, wrapped in green clothes. It is natural without any carvings, writing quietly. A pure and beautiful natural poem.

Climbing and walking all the way, admiring carefully all the way, stopping from time to time beside flowing water waterfalls, in front of strange peaks and beautiful cliffs, and beside ancient cypresses and green pines. The more you walk, the more you look at it, the more you sigh - this mountain, this water, It is majestic, colorful and beautiful, just like the landscape of the Lijiang River. I can't help but wonder whether nature is particularly fond of this landscape. I feel that one Guilin in the world is not enough, and in the high mountains and ridges of the north, a twin sister has been born. Wonderland on earth...

On the night I finished my trip to Bingyu Valley, my friend introduced me to another beautiful place: "In recent years, with the help of the wonderful peaks and beautiful water gifted by God, a newly developed scenic spot called the Holy Valley has been developed nearby. The local scenic spot specializes in rafting projects, which are suitable for all ages and is very exciting. You must go rafting once when you come to Xianrendong Town." My friend’s suggestion immediately piqued my interest and I kept saying yes!

After purchasing tickets to enter the scenic spot and arriving at the starting point, the staff gave each person an orange life jacket and watched us put it on carefully. After boarding the rafting boat, we and several groups of men and women sat down in their boats and began to float. As soon as the boat left the shore, a powerful water column suddenly shot from top to bottom. In an instant, several small boats The clothes of everyone on the boat were all wet. This unexpected attack immediately caused a scream full of surprise, among which the loudest voice was the young man. He was so happy that he seemed to have forgotten everything.

After calming down and wiping the water on my face, I realized that it turned out that the staff of the scenic spot were using a special water gun to see off the tourists, and some of them were standing there. The location was right at the top of the building that looked like a water tower. Because it was so high up, the "firepower" was particularly intense. This special way of farewell is like a blazing torch, igniting the emotions of the drifters. People who are already soaked to the body, let go of their throats and shout loudly without any scruples. Many ladies who are very quiet before boarding the boat He also put aside his reserve, yelled, yelled, and laughed non-stop.

The small boats went down the river one after another, bumping and spinning along with the ups and downs of the river bed. People screamed and laughed one after another along the way. During the rafting, when the boats got close to each other, many people on the boats who were not paddling enthusiastically stirred up the river water to attack each other. At this moment, some people who were not acquainted with each other seemed to have become long-lost old friends. Playing with each other without restraint. We also joined the "attack" team, constantly waving our hands to stir up water and having water fights with the people on the nearest boat. All the adults became unrestrained "little urchins"...

< p> We drifted along the current amid laughter and laughter. After an extremely exciting "water battle", we drifted to the shoal. As the speed of the boat slowed down, many people calmed down and began to concentrate on admiring the beautiful scenery on both sides of the strait. My friend and I also leaned in the boat and stretched out our hands. Drink water while enjoying the beauty of nature.

The water of the Clam River is crystal clear, and the pebble river bed is clearly visible. There are thousands of walls standing on both sides of the river, lush trees, and occasionally some colorful wild flowers swaying in the wind with their smiling faces.

At this time, people are following the boat, standing in a small boat, with a line of blue sky above the cliff, looking at the rugged rocks, and admiring the greenery everywhere. It feels like entering a fairyland. Faced with this scene, my friends can't help but I remembered the poems of Li Bai, the great poet of the Tang Dynasty: "The white emperor's speech is among the colorful clouds, and the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains are returned in one day.

The apes on both sides of the bank can't stop crying, and the light boat has passed the ten thousand mountains."

Time always flies in joy. Unknowingly, we drifted for nearly 3 hours and reached the end. Although we were a little tired, we were in a very happy mood. It can be said that we were tired and happy...

A few days ago Days of travel passed by in a flash, and I bid farewell to Xianrendong Town. With nostalgia for the beautiful mountains and rivers like a "fairyland", and with my heart filled with contentment, I embarked on my return trip to see the graceful beauty of "Little Guilin in the North" and the beauty of "the most beautiful place in southern Liaoning". The happiness stayed in my mind one by one, and the fairyland-like beauty of the town became an unforgettable memory for me! (Native Literature Garden, contributed by Wang Gaoyan)
