Things to do in Bijie

It's absolutely spectacular. It takes over an hour to walk through; it's quite dark inside, with ups and downs. Elderly people with mobility issues or poor eyesight should be cautious, as should those with claustrophobia. Of course, people with high blood pressure or heart conditions should also be careful. You should see it at least once in your life; the stalactites are of various shapes and are breathtakingly beautiful – definitely worth seeing.

I rushed towards Baili Rhododendron with great excitement, thinking I had stumbled into a fairyland, but reality was like a burst bubble. I guess only aerial photography can capture that feeling, lacking the filters and meticulous editing of traditional film.

For families with children visiting Zhijin, the 5A-rated Zhijin Cave is highly recommended. It's a natural water-eroded cave with a temperature around 10 degrees Celsius! The stalactites and stalagmites inside are incredibly diverse and will spark your imagination! The various gorge entrances and boat rides within the cave are unique features. It will leave you in awe of nature's artistry! Arriving at the scenic area at 9 am meant there were no parking spaces left, so we opted for the 10 yuan parking lot at the Grand Canyon exit. From the exit, we took a 108-meter-high ladder down, followed by a relatively easy walk down the mountain path. Along the way, we saw natural bridges, waterfalls, and Buddha statues – a truly breathtaking experience. We entered the "Ten Thousand Swallows Returning to Their Nest" area, took a 10 yuan boat ride to the other side, and then took a sightseeing bus back to the entrance. A free shuttle bus from the entrance took us to the visitor center. After getting off, we transferred back to our car at the exit for lunch. At 1 pm, we took another shuttle bus to Zhijin Cave, taking photos with the various stalactites and stalagmites along the way. The visit took about two hours. Overall, the pace was from easy to difficult, making it a manageable trip for children! (＾в＾)

The scenery is beautiful; the highlight is the boat ride inside the cave. I recommend entering from the west and exiting from the west. Parking is convenient at the west gate. First, take a 3-minute sightseeing bus, then walk for about 10 minutes, then take another 5-minute sightseeing bus to the Natural Bridge to board the boat. If you have a one-way ticket, make sure to climb the stairs on your right when you reach the boarding area; the rest of the way is downhill, which is more convenient for the elderly and children. Finally, take the boat back from the east gate to the west gate. If you take the boat to the east gate first and then walk back to the west gate, it's all uphill stairs and will be very physically demanding!

The vast grasslands were a welcome sight, thankfully we had a car. In such a wide expanse, besides horseback riding, there wasn't much else to do. The temperature difference between day and night was significant, ranging from 16 degrees Celsius at night to 26 degrees Celsius during the day. If you have the necessary gear, spending a few days there to relax and unwind is truly wonderful. Highly recommended for those who enjoy solitude.

For the National Day holiday, the number of visitors was manageable, and we even caught the last glimpse of wild chive blossoms. Parking was free, making it a truly conscientious tourist destination. The weather on the mountain was unpredictable; thankfully, heavy fog rolled in just before we finished visiting the core area, allowing us to quickly head back. Traveling with my 74-year-old mother, we opted for the cable car up and the sightseeing bus down – a perfect combination!

中國像這樣的仿古鎮太多了，成功的卻不多，關門倒店就算了，沒人照顧的房裡亂七八糟，沒人管理，藏污納垢，早晚會毀滅的！老人家實話實說，不值得千里迢迢，如果順路到此就停一停，捧個人場吧！

Caohai is located in Weining Yi, Hui and Miao Autonomous County, Bijie City, Guizhou Province. It is one of the three largest plateau lakes in China and the largest natural freshwater lake in Guizhou. The following is a brief information about Caohai: Ecological Value Caohai is an important wintering place for many rare birds such as black-necked cranes, attracting about 100,000 migratory birds every year. It has rich biological resources, including more than 2,000 biological species, and is known as the "species gene bank".

The Wujiang River Source Hundred-Mile Gallery is truly a stunning natural wonder! A boat trip along the emerald green river, flanked by towering peaks and rugged mountains, feels like stepping into a flowing landscape painting. The crystal-clear water reflects the blue sky, white clouds, and layered karst landforms, making every snapshot a masterpiece. Along the way, you'll see Miao villages and cliffside walkways, adding a touch of cultural charm and adventure. The boat trip is at a moderate pace, lasting approximately 2-3 hours, so you won't feel tired. It's recommended to go on a sunny day when the sunlight sparkles on the river, creating a more breathtaking visual experience. The scenic area's services are quite comprehensive, with clear dock signage and orderly boarding and disembarking. The only minor drawback is that the surrounding facilities are still under development, and there aren't many dining options. It's advisable to bring your own snacks and water. Overall, this is an excellent place to escape the crowds and experience the tranquil beauty of nature, well worth a visit! Highly recommended for those who enjoy natural scenery and photography.

After the Red Army crossed the Chishui River four times during the Long March, the leaders stood at the crossroads of three provinces, surveying the landscape! They held a meeting and decided on the subsequent route of the Long March! We received a profound education from this experience! This scenic spot is a place we've always wanted to visit! I highly recommend it!!!
