In history, Lianhua Lake Wetland was surrounded by water on three sides, adjacent to Liaohe River in the west, connected to Chaihe River in the north, and merged into Fanhe River in the south.

It provides a place for the public to participate in scientific practice, allowing ordinary citizens to get close to life, physical and digital sciences, and feel the changes that scientific progress has brought to people's lives. Through interaction with exhibits and scientific experiments, the audience can further stimulate their interest in science, enlighten their scientific concepts, and spread scientific spirit, ideas and methods.

Dazhou Phoenix Mountain Park is a 4A-rated urban mountain park in Dazhou City. After undergoing a major renovation in 2025, it is now open to the public free of charge and offers a rich cultural experience. It's a great place for children and the elderly. The night view is also stunning.

Chengkou not only has Lao Larou, but also Daba Mountains. Daba Mountains is the place with the most mountains and the most complex geological conditions. This is also the reason why Chengkou was the last to be connected to the highway. I once thought about taking advantage of the opening of the highway to visit Chengkou, but it did not come true in the end. Fortunately, with this trip to Hongchiba, I turned the steering wheel and headed towards Chengkou. Daba Mountains are still very beautiful, a wonder of nature.

The Quxian Confucian Temple is located at No. 93 Heping Street, Qujiang Town, Qu County, Sichuan Province, covering an area of ​​5,711 square meters. It is currently the only well-preserved ancient Qing Dynasty building complex in Northeast Sichuan. Quxian Confucian Temple was built before Jiading in Song Dynasty. The existing Confucian Temple was built in the second year of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty (AD 1663). It was built successively in Kangxi, Yong, Qian, and Jiajia according to regulations. It was completed in the autumn of the first year of Daoguang (AD 1821), and it took 158 years to finally reach its full scale. Quxian Confucian Temple takes advantage of the mountain and uses the rare symmetrical layout method of the central curve axis to cleverly and rationally arrange the palace wall, Panchi, Lingxing Gate, Jimen (Dacheng Gate), East and West verandas, Dacheng Hall, and Chongsheng Temple. (Qisheng Temple) is a courtyard-style building with three entrances and a quadrangle as the main frame. The entire ancient building complex of Quxian Confucian Temple is in the shape of a staircase, with pavilions and pavilions integrated into one. The main building is tall, solemn and majestic. In 1986, the Quxian Confucian Temple was announced by the Quxian People's Government as one of the first batch of county-level cultural relics protection units. In 2001, the Quxian Confucian Temple was announced by the Dazhou Municipal People's Government as one of the first batch of municipal cultural relics protection units. In 2007, the Quxian Confucian Temple was announced by the Sichuan Provincial People's Government as the seventh batch of provincial cultural relics protection units. In 2013, the Quxian Confucian Temple was announced by the State Council as the seventh batch of national key cultural relics protection units. The Quxian History Museum is located in the Quxian Confucian Temple. It is a national third-level museum and the second batch of free museums in the country. Many exquisite and precious cultural relics are displayed in the cultural relics exhibition hall.

The natural scenery is nice, the buildings are beautiful, and even the toilets are in line with the surrounding style. The tripod of the Shili Hall has a good weather and a peaceful country on one side and a beautiful vision of peace and prosperity on the other. The Wenfeng Pavilion is built in the style of the Tang Dynasty. You can go up to the building, feel the cool breeze, and look back at the Wenfeng Tower, the Ziku Tower, the Shili Hall, the Qianqiu Ding, the Book Scroll and other attractions, which is very pleasant. There are stories of celebrities in Qu County (such as Wang Xiaobo's father, Yang Mu, etc.) and history upstairs. There is also the Wenfeng Academy next to it, which has a very design sense and talks about the academy system, the imperial examination system, Confucianism, etc. You can drive up there, and there are also bicycle lanes. I went there on May Day, and there were very few people, so it is worth a visit.

There are too many People's Parks with the same name across the country, and each place has its own characteristics. The People's Park here has beautiful scenery and is loved by the general public, mainly because the coverage rate of various green vegetation is too high.

The Two Rivers Ferry is absolutely fantastic! The 15 yuan ticket is incredibly cost-effective! Here's a great route for families with kids: After visiting Jiefangbei and Kuixinglou, see Hongyadong during the day. If you're traveling with a 6-year-old and don't want to brave the crowds at Hongyadong at night, the stilted buildings during the day are just as beautiful. Afterward, take the Two Rivers Ferry to Danzishi, disembark, and explore Danzishi Old Street, Nanbin Road, and Xiahaoli. Then, take the light rail/bus or taxi back. The whole route is smooth and relaxing. The boat ride is novel and fun, and the kids especially loved it, remaining enthusiastic about exploring the shopping streets afterwards. At the pier, there's a large bowl of freshly cut watermelon for 10 yuan – watch it being cut right in front of you! It's sweet and refreshing. I highly recommend this route for families!

My stay in Chongqing was fantastic! The hotel boasts a superb location, within walking distance of Eling No. 2 Factory and Liziba Viewpoint, making sightseeing incredibly convenient. The rooms were spotless and bright, the bedding was soft and comfortable, and the amenities were complete. The free parking was a great convenience for travelers with cars. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful, making check-in quick and easy, and patiently answering all my questions. Overall, it offered excellent value for money and is a top choice for any trip. I would definitely choose this hotel again next time.
