Chapter 439: Panlong River Grand Canyon
"Wow! what a beautiful canyon!"
The first-class river water is rolling eastward, like a blue sword, splitting the majestic mountain in half, the rushing river, the steep mountains, and the creation of nature make the Panlong River Grand Canyon so handsome and charming.
"Brother, shall we go to the Grand Canyon tomorrow to play??" After the little girl saw the steep and beautiful picture of the Panlong River Grand Canyon on TV, she was suddenly moved.
The apes on both sides of the strait could not stop crying, and the light boat had already crossed the ten thousand mountains.
Think about Li Bai's poems, take a boat and sit in a flat boat, go down the river, look up at the tall and straight cliffs, the steep and majestic canyons, sit on the bow of the boat, and enjoy the natural scenery on both sides, it must be very comfortable.
"No, no, no, what's there to do there?" Zhang Feng waved his hand and refused.
"Oh, big brother......" The little girl continued to say coquettishly: "In a few days, my second sister and I will start school, can you take us to play for a while?"
The little girl is very smart, afraid that she will not have enough weight, and she also pulled the second sister along, hearing her words, Zhang Feng and Zhang Lin couldn't help laughing, she was really a playful girl.
"Okay, I'll take you there tomorrow. ”
"Yes, big brother, you're so good!" the little girl suddenly cheered, and hugged Zhang Feng's arm excitedly and shook it.
Zhang Feng couldn't help but roll his eyes, if I don't take you to the Grand Canyon, won't I be good?
However, Zhang Feng did not know this girl in general, and continued to watch TV with everyone, at this time it was really Qingshan news, so there was a picture of the appearance of the Panlong River Grand Canyon.
The Panlong River is a large tributary of the upper reaches of the Pearl River
It originates in the northwest foot of the Wumeng Mountains in Yunnan Province, traverses the entire Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, and is also the natural river of the two provinces.
The Panlong River flows straight down from the plateau, crosses the second, third, and first steps, and flows eastward, and finally flows to the Pearl River and the distant South China Sea.
The Panlong River is more than 400 kilometers long, with a total drop of nearly 2,000 meters, so it is rich in water energy resources, and the people of Qingshan also rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the water to draft, according to local conditions, two hydropower stations with an installed capacity of millions of kilowatts have been built on the Penlong River, which can bring tens of millions of profits and taxes to Qingshan every year, it can be said that the Panlong River is the mother river of Qingshan, raising tens of thousands of Qingshan people on both sides of the river.
The Panlong River originated in the distant era of orogeny, and after hundreds of millions of years of galloping exploration, it has created the beautiful Panlong River Grand Canyon.
The Grand Canyon is beautiful and precipitous, majestic and magnificent, and in the canyon, there are also ancient murals, ancient city ruins and other Yelang cultural mysteries, and chain bridges, cliff stone carvings, ancient post roads and other historical traces.
It can be said that the Panlong River Grand Canyon is a new highlight on the western tourist line of Guizhou Province, and it is also a "gallery of twists and turns", even the beauty of the Three Gorges is nothing more than that.
The Panlong River Grand Canyon is the culmination of the canyon scenery in Qingshan County, and is famous for its series of karst and Danxia landform Grand Canyon landscapes.
Sinkholes, ground cracks, high mountains, canyons have everything, the peaks and forests in the canyon are pulled out angrily, the lofty mountains and mountains are lined up according to the bank, the river valley is deeply cut, the wall stands thousands of thousands, the cliff is towering, straight into the sky.
The canyons on both sides of the river are diverse, the karst and Danxia landscapes are very rich, and the various types of waterfalls are quite spectacular. There are many karst cave landscapes, such as the famous Qingjiang Grand Canyon, petroglyph corridor, and Wumeng Iron Lock Bridge, which are distributed along both sides of the river.
Dozens of rare animals and plants such as the black langur nature reserve and the glossy leaf dove tree, Xikang magnolia, and yew grow along its watershed.
There are also Buyi and Miao villages on both sides of the river, scattered on both sides, like jewels embedded in the mountains and mountains on both sides of the Grand Canyon.
The unique and rich ethnic customs, history and culture and many other cultural landscapes and natural landscapes are perfectly combined and shine with each other.
……
The next day, Zhang Feng drove the car, took his two precious sisters and cousin Zhang Yi, and galloped down the highway by the Dabang River, and in about a few minutes, several people arrived at the confluence of the two rivers.
"See, the Tabang River is here to inject into the Panlong River......"
Coming to the Panlong River, the river water instantly soared several times, along the low-lying river valley, every mountain opens, breaks through the heaven and earth, and creates the majestic and dangerous Panlong River Grand Canyon downstream.
"What a big river!!" Xiao Yue couldn't help but exclaim as she looked at the eastward flowing Panlong River outside the car window.
A ray of curiosity also appeared on Zhang Lin and Zhang Yue's faces, and their eyes were glued to the car window, without blinking, worried about missing a beautiful scenery.
In order to develop the tourism resources of the Panlong River, the county specially built a new asphalt road along the riverbank.
The road turns with the mountains, by the mountains and the river, the dark asphalt road and the turquoise river, side by side, along the winding river valley, extending into the distance.
Along the way, rolling mountains, towering cliffs, turbulent rivers, green vegetation, everything is so natural and beautiful, without the slightest trace of artificial carving.
"Alright, alright!!!! In about half an hour, several people came to the famous Panlong River Bridge.
The Panlong River Bridge is famous at home and abroad, and it is one of the tallest bridges in the country, even though it has a certain reputation in the world.
"Brother, have we arrived at the Panlong River Bridge??"
"Of course, don't you just look ahead?" Zhang Feng smiled, pointed to the towering bridge in front of him, and said to the three of them.
There is a special viewing area for tourists on the side of the bridge, and the edge of the canyon is surrounded by iron railings, where three or five tourists stand at this time to enjoy the magnificent scenery under the bridge.
"Brother, is this bridge the highest bridge in the world?" Seeing that the bridge was like an abyss, the little girl's feet trembled, and she hurriedly grabbed Zhang Feng's arm and asked with some fear.
"Hehe, of course, don't you see there's an introduction here?"
Following Zhang Feng's fingers, everyone saw a stone monument next to the bridge, and there was an introduction to the bridge in front of them on the stone monument.
The bridge is 1,343 meters long, with a vertical height of 653 meters from the bridge deck to the valley floor, which is equivalent to the height of a 200-story building – the highest bridge in the world.
At the same time, the height of the main piers on the east and west banks of the bridge is 270 meters and 251 meters respectively, and the main span of more than 700 meters ranks second in the world in the span of the main span of the same type of bridge.
As a world-class bridge, Panlong River Bridge faces many problems in its construction, such as temperature control of large-volume cushion cap concrete in mountainous areas, pumping of high-performance concrete with machine-made sand in ultra-high cable towers, overall hoisting of overweight steel anchor beams in mountainous areas, steel truss girder jacking without horizontal force at side span high piers, and closure of long-span steel truss cable-stayed bridge. Obviously, these challenges were successfully overcome by Huaxia's technical and engineering teams.
"Come on, I'll take some pictures of you!!" Zhang Feng beckoned to the three of them.
"Hee Hee ......" got used to it for a while, and the little girl was no longer so nervous, and immediately ran happily to the stone monument and waited for Zhang Feng to take pictures.
