Landscape of the Wild Three Rivers
There are many Jianshi Rivers, Guangrun River, Jingyang River, Mashui River, Qinglong River, Wujia River... There are 16 rivers with large water volume recorded in Qing Tongzhi's "Chronicle of Jianshi County", not counting other small rivers, but the most exotic and wild rivers are probably the three wild rivers. Yesan River is a rare river with a pristine ecological environment in Hubei Province and even the whole country, with beautiful and primitive ecology along the way, many scenic spots and peculiarities, many legends and mysteries. The two sides of the river are heavily overridden, the canyons are deep, the terrain is varied, the vegetation is rich, the clouds are swirling, the wild interest is thick, and the original is quiet, just like a series of ink paintings. There are also imposing waterfalls with different shapes, caves of different sizes and strange and beautiful caves, and so on. There are silver carp, tuan fish, baby fish, otters and other aquatic animals in the river; on the mountain, there are monkeys, roe deer, nine proud li, red-bellied golden pheasant and other wild animals chirping. Many beautiful views, the eyes are not enough to see, the heart is not enough to experience.
Yesan River, the largest tributary of the middle reaches of the Qingjiang River, is the boundary river of Badong and Jianshi Counties, originating from the Tianfanping of the green slope of Badong County, flowing into jianshi county at the mouth of the Daya River, and after the cold water river joins, the shimen river, yinpo river and Cuijia river are merged into the Qingjiang River at the Wild Three Mouths of Huaping Township in Jianshi County, with a total length of 66 kilometers.
The beauty of the Wild Three Rivers is nothing more than a wild word. Wild is rugged, bold, and breathtaking.
A place that can be called a scenic spot, there is a sense of thickness in the mountains, there is a sense of water that is alive and moving, and the water of the wild mountains and rivers is not soft at all, but it is more common to see its galloping and bold posture, she uses indestructible strength to rush the heavy mountains out of a deep canyon, with its momentum of hundreds of rivers, countless tributaries and waterfalls into the bosom.
In the upper reaches of the Yesan River, there are five tributaries: the Yangyu River, the Shizhu River, the Anti-Bay River, the Cha'er River and the Shimen River. Entering the Yangyu River Valley, the stone arch bridge between the two banks and the stream under the bridge constitute a beautiful picture of the flowing water of the small mountain bridge, although the stream flows through a short distance and seeps into the riverbed, but the mountains on both sides are green and the canyon scenery is infinite. Entering the Stone Pillar River, the first thing that enters the eye is the beautiful stone pillar towering on the mountainside in front of you, like a village girl in the depths of the mountain, going out to meet the guests who come from afar, turning a few corners, then the waterfall is suddenly seen, and a clear spring gushes down from the stone cracks, quite like the Milky Way falling for nine days. Then to the Anti-Bay River, you can see the clear spring flowing out of the cave. The water of the Anti-Bay River is not large, but it is extremely lively. From the donkey friends who have trekked through the Wild Three Rivers Gorge, it is known that the most beautiful scenery of the Wild Three Rivers is the Shimen River section: this is a section of uninhabited area, the two banks of the river are steep cliffs, below the cliffs are rugged river valleys, above the water surface is about two inches high canine teeth staggered stone steps, slippery moss climbing stone walls, and then above is dozens of meters of Bai Sensen cliffs, above the cliffs are faintly visible trees and a line of blue sky. The river valley is untouchable, or narrow enough to be crossed only sideways, or forms a pool of blue waves in a spacious place, or winds into an abyss, or zigzags into a gallery.
In Jianshi County, the Yesan River, which is now developed as a scenic spot, has a total length of 28 kilometers, winding between the canyons where Jianshi and Padang intersect, and is divided into Savage Gorge, Wild Water Gorge and Wild Mountain Gorge from top to bottom. 12 kilometers upstream of the Wild Mountain Gorge there is the famous "Founder" site, wild water gorge originates from many waterfalls on both sides of the river and a clear river wild water, wild mountain gorge originates from many strange peaks and strange rocks on both sides of the river. The "three" characters of The Wild Three Rivers contain the meaning of the three "wilds" of "wild people, wild water, and wild mountains". Along the way, the mountains are strange and strange, wild and interesting, which can really be described as "wild mountains, wild waters, wild rivers, original taste and original ecology".
The wild beauty of the Wild Three Rivers attracts many people to explore and play. The people who founded the native area alone spontaneously or systematically explored the Yesanhe River many times.
The founding 12 donkey friends conducted a hiking expedition to the Wild Three Rivers Gorge, which was the largest exploration operation in the history of the Wild Three Rivers Expedition, which took a total of 40 hours and traveled more than 20 kilometers, crossing the five tributaries of the upper reaches of the Wild Three Rivers, of which nearly three-quarters were uninhabited areas, of which 12 hours were climbed in the canyon and swam in the river water.
This event is the first time that the donkey friends have tried to cross the canyon and follow the creek, and in order to ensure safety, they have made sufficient preparations before departure: pay attention to the weather forecast, equipped with the necessary safety equipment, prepare the necessary camping, cooking equipment and enough food, and gather four local donkey friends who are familiar with the terrain of the Wild Three Rivers Canyon and have experience in canyon crossing.
After assembling in Gaoping Town, a group of 12 donkey friends drove to Gaoping Qinghua, and they walked into the river valley from the Yangyu River in the upper reaches of the Yesan River, and began a trekking journey through the Wild Three Rivers Gorge at the ancient stone arch bridge from Gaoping to Longping. They went from the Yangyu River through the Shizhu River, the Anti-Bend River to the Bale River, passing through several dry river dams and several steep cliffs on the way, and encountered the first dangerous pass of the trip in a gorge, where the right cliff was impassable, the left bank was full of thorns, and below was a bottomless deep pool, after planning, the donkey friends decided to divide the soldiers into two roads, cut through the thorns on the left bank, and prepared life-saving equipment to be released from the cliff, and passed this dangerous pass through hardships. After arriving at the Anti-Bay River, it is a slippery waterway, everyone will wade to the Bal river power station dam, at this time the sky will be dark, if you go along the canyon, it will be very dangerous, so everyone decided to follow the water diversion channel to the camp to the bal river power station, the team arrived at the destination at seven o'clock in the evening.
Overnight camp, early in the morning of the 20th, after the donkey friends are ready, they begin to cross the Shimen River Gorge. The Shimen River Gorge is about 300 meters deep, the average width is only 3 meters, the narrowest place allows only one person to pass, all the way through the water danger Shiqi, through several beaches, swimming through several pools, the team encountered the second danger of the trip: a long trough of about ten meters long connected to a deep pool, the water is deep and urgent. The team members had to swim across, and several team members were washed down several times, but fortunately there was no danger. Not long after, the third dangerous pass was encountered: a boulder lay across the valley, and the rapids on both sides flew down more than 20 feet, there was no other way to do it, and it coincided with heavy rain. Fortunately, experienced donkey friends quickly found a foothold under the waterfall, stabilized the rubber boat, and then put down the team members one by one, stopped when the rain was not much, and everyone arrived at a relatively safe area. After climbing the shore, crossing the beach and crossing the pond, everyone rested and then headed for the final destination. Just when everyone was preparing to break out of the siege, the fourth dangerous pass of the trip appeared in front of them: a narrow and deep deep trough in the rapids on the left side flew down into the pool, and on the right side was a steep cliff more than 10 meters high, the team members had to descend from the cliff, fortunately, with their previous experience, everyone successfully passed the dangerous pass, and arrived at the Shimen Bridge at 6:30 p.m., because it was late in the evening, they could no longer rush to the Yesanhe Power Station Dam as planned, and the team members decided to go ashore and climb along the Chuanyi Ancient Road to Gaoping Town, ending the two-day expedition.
This trekking expedition caused a strong response in the local area, and was also filmed as two episodes of feature films, which were continuously broadcast on the "Weekend Chronicle" column of Jianshi TV.
After all, the beauty of the Wild Three Rivers will not be buried.
In September 2008, the Jianshi County Government signed a contract with Qingjiang Tourism Development Co., Ltd. and began to vigorously develop the Yesan River Scenic Area. The Wild Three Rivers Scenic Area here is no longer just the Wild Three Rivers.
The Yesanhe River Scenic Area spans Huaping Township, Gaoping Town and Jingyang Town, with an overall planning area of 155 square kilometers, consisting of three scenic spots of Yesanhe Gorge, Jingyang River Gorge and Huangheqiao Peak Forest, which integrate eight major landscape characteristics such as Cai Gorge, Qifeng, Spring Stream, Flying Waterfall, Flower Tree, Mangteng, Guguan and Old Street.
After several years of construction, a large number of unique tourist attractions have been built in the scenic spot, and the Xiaoxi Lake Resort Center has been built, and it has been officially opened to guests since March 1, 2011, and the beauty of this area has finally come out of the mountains, and the little-known YesanHe has finally unveiled its mystery.
The Yesan river scenic area has high mountains, steep rocks and picturesque scenery. Let's explore them one by one.
Let's start with the Jingyang River Scenic Area. Jingyang River is a section of the Qingjiang River in the territory of the founding, in the scenic area about 18 kilometers long, of which the scenic river section is about 8 kilometers, people say that the 800-mile Qingjiang River is picturesque, the most beautiful section of the river in Jingyang. After the damming of shuibuya, a high gorge and flat lake are formed, and the scenery is more magnificent.
Look at the Yellow Crane Bridge Peak Forest. Huangheqiao Peak Forest is located in the south of Huaping Town, on the north bank of the Qingjiang River, where there are many strange peaks and towering cliffs, "wanting to be higher than the Tiangong test". There are all kinds of large and small stone pillars, strange peaks, strange rocks, deep valleys, grabens, cracks in the ground, and cliffs in the scenic spots. In the scenic spot, there are all kinds of large and small stone pillars, strange peaks, strange rocks, deep valleys, grabens, isthmuses, crevices, and cliffs, and there are many "first-line sky" landscapes alone, and the forms are different, which is wonderful.
Come back and admire the Wild Three Rivers Gorge. The landscape ecological environment of Yesanhe Tourist Scenic Spot is good, the natural scenery is primitive and mysterious, the valley is deep and the forest is deep, and the wild interest is rich, the most representative of which is the Wild Three Rivers. YesanHe is a rare river with a pristine ecological environment in Hubei and even the whole country, with a length of 28 kilometers in the scenic area. From top to bottom, it is divided into Savage Gorge, Wild Water Gorge and Wild Mountain Gorge. The vegetation on both sides of the river is luxuriant, there are many peaks, strange rocks, waterfalls, rich in wild animals, there are often macaques, wild birds playing in the water, most of the river section belongs to the "no man's land", can be described as "wild mountains, wild waters and wild rivers, original and original ecology", can be called "natural virgin land, Tiangong wild fun valley".
