Victory in Fighting the Epidemic in Sight: Respond to the Call, Resume Work and Production, and Enjoy Zhangjiajie (Part 4)
Breakfast finished, the hotel used its shuttle to drop me off at Yangjiajie entrance, then a cable car was taken up the mountain!
Today's plan is two down and two up, first from Yangjiajie via the cable car, then down the Sandao Gorge via the knife-cut gorge into the Golden Whip Stream; then from Huangshiqian Cableway, after enjoying the view of Huangshiqian back to the bottom. Both up and down are taken by cable car, which reduces the physical exertion and the fatigue of people. However, I later checked the steps on my phone, which was the most steps of the three days.
First, let's take a few pictures from the cable car!
Yesterday, the beautiful housekeeper at the estate heard I was coming to visit, so she suggested I go to Bridge Tower, saying it was the best place to view the first bridge in the world, and most teams don't arrange it.
After arriving at the upper station, a green vehicle quickly took me to the entrance of Bridge Tower. After getting off by myself, I followed a small path to the viewing spot. It wasn't far, and I quickly arrived. The view was different from the close-up I saw yesterday on Yuanjiajie Mountain, it was more magnificent and consistent with the title of 'first'. A glance showed that the cliffs were tall, and the two peaks were low and close together, and millions of years of erosion left a place still showing yesterday's intimacy. Looking around, everywhere was scenic and suitable for taking pictures. I watched a lot by myself and took a lot of pictures.
I encountered trouble at the lower station of Sandao Gorge.
The station was blocked by a thin rope, and there was a warning sign saying: 'Road blocked due to rain, no access!' I was stunned, if I couldn't go down Sandao Gorge, today's itinerary would be a major problem! I hesitated for a moment, I made up my mind, my plan couldn't change, I couldn't change it, I didn't care, go!
I stepped over the thin rope and started descending.
After entering the gorge, I had to look up to appreciate the scenery on both sides.
I encountered several monkeys along the way, two of them followed me closely. As I took pictures with my camera, I didn't pay much attention, looking like they were asking for food. After a long time, I realized they were probably asking me for food. Most tourists who encounter monkeys would usually take out food to feed them. Unexpectedly, I ran into an unlucky guest today, and the mountain lord didn't matter, it didn't happen like the monkeys in Emeishan, they wouldn't forcibly snatch your bag. Instead, I seized the opportunity to take several pictures of them, which delayed a lot of time.
With the 10-24 ultra-wide angle lens, the deep gorge can be well displayed.
The warning sign at the station was indeed effective, and there were few people on this road.
Along the way, many areas were covered in moss, creating a sense of ancient and silent beauty. However, the road surface was very slippery. Unfortunately, I fell when stepping on the next step – I stumbled, fell backwards, and sat on the ground. My butt hurt, and my right hand might have been injured (fortunately, my camera, which was held in my left hand, didn't get damaged). This incident completely disrupted my pace, and I was very careful every step on the moss-covered stone path.
Be cautious, don't make mistakes!
If a person is alone in the gorge, there is no one to help if something happens, don't shout!
When entering the bottom of the gorge and entering the Golden Whip Stream, I encountered more tourists.
Walking along the Golden Whip Stream, I looked up and everywhere was suitable for taking pictures.
I took a turn to the Huangshiqian Cableway again, and the view opened up again. The viewing angle changed, which gave a completely different feeling. The gorge was quiet and deep, while the other was vast and distant. There was an advertisement sign on the way down Huangshiqian: 'If you don't go to Huangshiqian, it's pointless to go to Zhangjiajie!' Seeing that the words were true, it really deserved the name.
Due to the weather, although it was a sunny day, there was no blue sky and white clouds, which didn't create a good picture, so I processed the picture into black and white or single color to my satisfaction!
I got to Zhangjiajie City almost at 6:30 pm, I immediately put down my luggage and started looking for food. I wanted to try Zhangjiajie's famous three-pot dish today.
