Guizhou Ji dao Miao Village
Today is the 35th day of my trip from Guangzhou, the 13th day of Guizhou, in Yunnan mainly to the Nu River Grand Canyon area such as Lao Mudeng, Bingzhongluo, Dulongjiang, etc., Guizhou is mainly in the southeast of Qiandong Leishan County, Liping County, Congjiang County around.
Nu River, Yunnan
Yesterday went from Jiangpi Shamiao Village, feel general, before there were netizens left a message saying that there is no bad scenery only people who will not appreciate, and said that in the journey of expensive tickets are also worth it, is a rare experience in life and the like. What I want to say is that when a person feels that every place is good during the trip, it is really not good, is it that all attractions are the same in your eyes?
Gossip aside, let's go back to today's itinerary. Today, my little friend Wenzi and I are going to Jiabang Township below From Jiang County, and there are two shuttle buses a day from Jiang County Town Bus Station to Jiabang, one is 8:40 in the morning, one is 12:30 noon, and we take it in the morning.
Bus service from Jiang
The car was full of people, thankfully we bought tickets early the day before. All the way along the river, the scenery is good, the river is turquoise. The road conditions to Jiabang are not good, many sections are relatively narrow, and you need to slowly pass when you will drive.
Scenery on the road
As soon as you enter the Gate of Kapung, you can see layers of terraces, which are said to be tens of kilometers long.
The car drove all the way along the terraces, lined with terraces, very spectacular, I really hate not being able to get out of the car and walk. We got off at the village of Jiache, and we checked the raiders before saying that the terraces in this location are the most beautiful.
Two other girls also got out of the car, carrying large backpacks, which were supposed to be tourists, so they greeted them, and one of the older sisters said that she had been here before, so we followed them to find an inn to stay in.
Now is the off-season of the Jiabang Terraces, there are very few tourists, many inns are empty, the price is also very cheap, we found a good environment, bargaining to 120 yuan a room, there is mahjong in the room. The owner said that the two rooms we chose were both 800 yuan or thousands of dollars in high season.
Asked the hostess to simply make us a few dishes, and after lunch my sister led the way to climb the mountain to see the panoramic view of the terraces. Standing on a small hillside and looking at the endless terraces below, there were occasionally one or two cars driving on the road between the terraces, and I could not think of other adjectives besides spectacular.
Climbing up the terraces all the way up, all the way to the endless scenery, find a gentle place to sit down, and wait for the sunset quietly. Unfortunately, the sky is overcast, since arriving in Guizhou, luck does not seem to be very good, and no day is sunny.
There are stilt houses scattered among the terraces, and occasionally villagers can be seen working by.
Here you can look at the entire village of Jiache Village, surrounded by layers of terraces, which has a quiet and quaint feeling, which makes people want to live in seclusion here.
It is said that the most beautiful season of jiabang terraces is the water release period in March and April, and the terraces are like a mirror, like a masterpiece polished by the hand of God, but at that time there were many tourists, and the sky-high price of the inn was difficult to find, and now although it is the off-season tourists are less cheap, but the scenery is discounted, so life always has the best of both worlds.
Here in the off-season there are no restaurants open, in the evening to find a fellow home, asked if you can make us food, and finally bought a chicken for us to make hot pot to eat, 60 yuan a pound, about four pounds of weight, rice free, green vegetables unlimited gifts. It can be certain that their farmer's free-range chicken, there is no fat at all, the green vegetables are also picked from the vegetable field, the rice is also fragrant, the taste is too good, the villagers washed us two baskets of greens, actually gave us all to eat, and finally even the soup was drunk for us.
Super tasty food
The three of them were playing mahjong at night, which gave me the illusion of traveling through time and space, as if we were not on the road, but back to normal life.
Tomorrow plan to hike to Kap page village to see the terraces.
