This year's heat is really outrageous, many places across the country have entered the barbecue mode, "2024 or become the hottest year" news, successfully let people "loan hot" in advance, riding a donkey just want to find a place to escape the heat.
So I rode a donkey to dig and dig to a city that can be called the C position of China's summer capital, and it is really cool to live here in summer!
Even on sunny days in July and August, the average temperature in this mountain town is only 24°C. The oncoming wind blowing on the street is also cool, as if it is equipped with a natural central air conditioner.
And the pace of life is still very comfortable, the streets and alleys can be seen everywhere with all kinds of fun, and there is a lazy energy that is not lost to Chengdu in the bones.
It is the most suitable city in China to escape the summer, Guizhou and Guiyang.
Refreshing Guiyang, a paradise for escaping the summer!
Some people question, in terms of temperature it is a few degrees higher than Liupanshui, China's cool capital, the most suitable city in China to escape the summer, why is Guiyang?!
Riding a donkey privately believes that summer travel places value not only coolness, but also the experience of travel.
The city of Guiyang is very magical, even if it is frequently out of the circle because of "delicious", but people's attention is always snatched away by Libo, Qiandongnan and other places.
But if you are a person who likes to roam the city and is keen to live like a local, then Guiyang must be your next summer travel destination.
