The sightseeing car in Longqingxia is the kind of sightseeing car that looks like a small train, which is somewhat similar to the sightseeing car I saw on Nanjing Road in Shanghai as an ornament, but it is not as long.

After taking the sightseeing bus to the gate of the scenic spot, I found that there are three kinds of tickets for Longqing Gorge, the ticket is forty, the student ticket is twenty, and the joint ticket with the ferry ticket is one hundred and forty. In line with the principle that every penny you can save is a penny, I decisively bought three student tickets and one joint ticket.

Torino was the only one of us who didn't buy a student ticket but a combined ticket, and she didn't have a student ID, so there was no way to buy a student ticket. Although I am not a student after dropping out, the campus card is still there, and the Longqingxia Scenic Area recognizes that the campus card is a certificate that can prove the identity of the student, so I can steal a chicken.

Entering the scenic spot is the beautiful scenery, lying on the hillside of the huge red Longqing Gorge three words are the first to come into view. What surprised me a little was that this Longqing Gorge did not grow into a high mountain like most mountains in the north, but was as continuous as a hill, quite a kind of southern beauty.

Walking all the way in, we soon came to the landmark building of Longqing Gorge - Dragon Elevator. It is said that it is a dragon elevator, but it is actually an escalator, but unlike ordinary escalators, this dragon elevator is closed, one side is close to the mountain wall, and the surface is made into a dragon.

Xiao Yayun and the two girls in Turin saw this design for the first time, and they stood in front of the dragon elevator with excitement and were busy taking selfies. I also took advantage of this effort to find an angle to take a picture of the whole picture of the dragon elevator.

The dragon's mouth of the dragon elevator is facing the bridge and is the entrance. The dragon's tail is the exit, and the dragon's tail is the wharf. The moment I walked out of the dragon elevator, I suddenly opened up, and the mountains and mountains were in full view.

Because it is not a holiday with few people, the pier is very empty, there are not many people, and there is no need to queue at all. At the pier, Chu Cheng and I, as well as Xiao Yayun, the three of us bought student tickets, and bought the tickets and got on the boat directly.

Each boat is equipped with a tour guide to introduce Longqing Gorge, and the boat has not opened a tour guide to introduce the general situation of Longqing Gorge.

Longqing Gorge is named after the name of Yanqing in the Ming Dynasty "Longqing Prefecture", which is said to be Longqing Gorge, but it is actually a reservoir between two mountains. It has both the majesty of the outside of the plug and the beauty of the south of the Yangtze River, and is one of the sixteen views of the imperial capital today, known as the "Little Li River". "Ten miles of the gorge river" is the important landscape of Longqing Gorge, from the estuary dam to the canyon of nearly 7 miles long of the Sancha River, the mountains on both sides are very dangerous, the wall surface is almost perpendicular to the river, the river is wide and narrow, the width is about 50 meters, the narrow place is less than 10 meters, it is extremely meandering, every twist and turn, a scene from itself. Wait until we will see the charm of this "Ten Miles of Gorges". ”

The first place I went to was the Axe Split Mountain, which I personally thought was more like a crack, a piece of the valley protruding from it, as if the axe had split into a tree and then stuck in the gap that had been cut out.

The tour guide pointed to the axe and began to tell the legend of the axe splitting the mountain, the legend of the axe splitting the mountain is very simple, according to legend, a long time ago, there was an old god with great power to take the axe to split the mountain, the result backfired, not only the mountain was not split, but the axe was caught here, and it turned into stone for a long time.

Although the story is simple, listening to this simple story while watching the axe splitting the mountain, I can't help but admire the magic of nature.

After the Axe Split Mountain, there is Moon Bay, which is named after the canyon that looks like a moon from the sky. Colored balls divide the river into two parts, one for large boats and the other for small boats that tourists row.

When passing through Moon Bay, there happened to be two small boats on the other side of the colored ball belt along the water slowly, the people on the small boat, both men and women, all looked leisurely, and with the surrounding green mountains and clear water, this scene was simply itchy, and I wanted to rent a small boat immediately on the shore.

The boat continued to move forward, and after a few minutes, the guide pointed to something that I didn't know whether to call it a boulder or a mountain and smiled, "This is Shenbi Peak." Do you see the tall mountain in the middle? Do you feel like the mountain peak is like a stroke of genius, straight into the valley bottom? If you combine the Shenbi Peak and the peaks behind it, it is like a huge peacock welcoming everyone, which is called "Peacock Welcoming Guests". “

The tour guide's auspicious words attracted a burst of applause from the uncles and aunts sitting on the boat.

That's right, I was on the same boat as the elderly tour group I met in the parking lot

After sailing in Longqing Gorge for more than 20 minutes, the cruise ship returns to the Kongoji Pier, where you can disembark and move freely. There are many activities that can be done, you can experience bungee jumping, you can go to Kongo Temple to burn incense, you can go to Moon Bay to row a boat, you can go to the Dream Pavilion to climb high and look far away.

I discussed it with Chu Cheng and the others, and finally decided to go rowing a small boat first and then go to King Kong Temple to have a look. Although bungee jumping sounds exciting, Xiao Yayun is afraid of heights and Turin is pregnant, so she can't go. Chu Cheng and I could only give up.

The fee for rowing was twenty-one hours, and after paying the deposit, the four of us got on the small boat we had picked, took a paddle to the shore, and rowed slowly towards Moon Bay.

It's a bit similar to the time I went to see Erhaiyue in Dali, Chu Cheng and I rowed in the back, and the two girls sat in front. The only difference is that one of the two girls is different, and the time has changed from night to day.

The water in Longqing Gorge is very clear, although it is not clear and the bottom can be seen, but it can also be called very transparent. The oars slapped the water, and I couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's really rare to see such a clear water surface in the water-scarce imperial capital." ”

Chu Cheng smiled and said, "Yo, when did you change to the literary route." ”

I glanced at Chu Cheng, "If it were you, I would choose to shut up now." You know why? ”

Chu Cheng was stunned for a moment, "Because my words ruined the atmosphere." “

"No, because I think you should pray to God now that the oar in your hand won't break like it did in Erhai that day, I don't think there will be any dragon Qingxian or something like that to save us."

"Hahaha, I didn't expect you to remember that incident, it's okay Chu Cheng, you are now."

Turin turned his head to look at me and Chu Cheng and laughed.

Chu Cheng smiled confidently and mysteriously, and suddenly took out an oar from under his buttocks, "Do you think I won't think of this, today I specially asked the staff for an extra oar." ”

I looked at Chu Cheng in surprise, "When did you bring this thing up, didn't you just have one in your hand at that time?" Damn, don't tell me you stuffed it into that place. ”

"Get out of here."
