travel on the tip of the tongue

Fall in love with you, travel on the tip of the tongue

Today is the third day of Lin Shenlu's self-driving Enshi in-depth tour.

Destination Sobuya Stone Forest.

Lin Shenlu worshiped this place with deep soul cognition.

Because the history here runs through too many years.

This is a natural scientist who has gone through 4.6 million years - Suobuya Stone Forest.

This romantic name is derived from the Tujia language.

Sobu means three.

Ya refers to the gap between two mountains. The Suobuya Stone Forest in Enshi is known as the world's first Ordovician Stone Forest. More than 4 million years ago, the Enshi area was a vast ocean, and many ancient marine creatures lived in it. Mixed with sediment and sank to the bottom of the sea, the Ordovician strata gradually formed.

With the change of geological structure, it rose to land. Nearly [-] million years later, it was covered by the Second and Triassic rock formations. Under a strong fault in the formation, it broke through the coverage and exposed the surface again.After long-term wind and rain and other natural baptisms, the majestic and spectacular Suobuya Stone Forest wonders are formed.

The Suobuya Stone Forest is the second largest stone forest in the country, and its vegetation ranks first in the country.

This is really an ancient geological museum.

In fact, the mystery and magic here are also normal. After all, Enshi, Hubei is located on the mysterious 30th parallel north latitude. It belongs to the east extension of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau and is a geographical maze made of limestone.

Suobuya Stone Forest is deep in the rolling mountains of Enshi, where there is a sea of ​​stones, with thousands of strange boulders.

Among them, three are the most miraculous, and they are respectively called by the common people: "strange looking", "movable to push", and "sound to knock".

These three legendary stones all have a mythical story behind them.

The first one is Zhenlong Yuzhu, one of the three strange stones in Suobuya Stone Forest.

The second one is the dragon scale stone, one of the three strange stones in the Suobuya Stone Forest. The dragon scale stone has a strange appearance. They are like the legends. They are covered with special textures from the inside to the outside. Dragon scale armor.

Experts identified its "identity", which was formed 4 million years ago in the Ordovician dragon scale limestone, and its cause has puzzled the geological community for a long time.

The last one is Zhongxin Stone, one of the three strange stones in Suobuya Stone Forest. It has a peculiar structure, the bottom is suspended in the air and the thickness is moderate. It is like an ancient chime bell. .

Mr. Sui once knocked on this stone when he went out to fight, and assembled the three armies. It used to be the "war drum".

It is said that if you silently make a wish to the stone, tap it with your palm, and when you hear the sound of Zhong Xinshi, your good wish will come true.

……

Suobuya Stone Forest is a typical karst landform, formed due to geological karst phenomena.

At present, there are four major scenic spots open to the scenic spot: Qinglong Temple, Lianhuazhai, Mozigou, and Jiulonghui.

Slit secrets and fossil monuments can be seen everywhere, which can be called an ancient geological museum.

After research by Sun Yat-sen University and China University of Geosciences, it is determined that the stone forest was formed in the Ordovician period 4.6 million years ago.

4.6 million years ago, this place belonged to a piece of seabed. The vicissitudes of life and the changes of time have brought about a magnificent stone forest landscape. Through the cracks in these stone forests, traces of the underwater world 4.6 million years ago can occasionally be found.

Suobuya Stone Forest Scenic Area has an average altitude of more than 900 meters. It has a subtropical monsoon humid climate with good vegetation, rich animal resources and charming natural scenery. Because of its high altitude, it is also known as "Daiguan Stone Forest", a natural oxygen bar, and because there is no severe heat in summer and no severe cold in winter, it is suitable for sightseeing all year round.

The entire stone forest looks like a huge gourd, surrounded by emerald green screens, beautiful peaks, jagged boulders, karst ditches, towering stone pillars, uneven stone buds, underground rivers, countless caves, and amazing craftsmanship.Suobuya Stone Forest has more than 100 classic natural landscapes of different sizes, all over strange rocks and rocks, some are shaped like goshawks looking at the moon, some are like fairies looking back, some are like dragons fighting tigers, some are like lotus flowers, and some are graceful. Some are magnificent.

On the edge of the stone forest, there is a 3km long and 10m high ground fissure, twists and turns, like a maze, mysterious and unpredictable, walking through the ground fissure, you can only see a line of blue sky above your head, you can only hear the gurgling spring water in your ears, and you can't find it with your eyes Where the spring flows, the stone forest is like a labyrinth under the sea.

Hunt for the colorful caves, look back at the strange rocks and peaks, overlook the thousands of stone forests, and look up at the sky.

……

At this moment, Lin Shenlu and Su Moli were walking through the Suobuya Stone Forest.

And inside the wall in front of him are real fossils.This is the Chinese Sinian cornerstone. Sinian is a river bottom carnivorous invertebrate fossil that only lived in China 6000 million years ago. It is one of the important fossils of the Paleozoic Ordovician in China. It is rare and especially precious. .

This is in the small scenic spot of Sunzitang.

The fossil in front of me is from the Chinese Sinian biological fossil 5000 million years ago, and this Sinian fossil is more complete.

Lin Shenlu couldn't help sighing while taking pictures.

In fact, the Suobuya Stone Forest looks like a huge gourd with jagged boulders, karst ditches all over the area, towering stone pillars, uneven stone buds, undercurrents of underground rivers, countless caves, and countless scenes.

The Suobuya Stone Forest Scenic Area is basically a stone path up and down, and there is no need to climb many high steps. The shape of the stone forest is different from that of the Yunnan Stone Forest. The forest area is scattered and the vegetation is relatively rich, but Lin Shenlu thinks that the viewing I have a little regret.

Generally, tourist groups and tourists visit Jiulonghui, Mozigou, Lianhuazhai, and Qinglong Temple sequentially from the entrance, and tourist groups often only visit the two scenic spots of Mozigou and Lianhuazhai.

The principle of Lin Shenlu's travel is to go as far as possible, and there should be plenty of time for sightseeing on the day.

Therefore, contrary to other tourists, Lin Shenlu directly took the scenic spot and handed over the car to the farthest Qinglong Temple scenic spot to start the tour.

Qinglong Temple Scenic Spot is named after Qinglong Temple. The temple was once destroyed by fire, leaving only broken walls and ruins. Now it is restored as before, and the incense is flourishing.

The area of ​​Qinglong Temple scenic area is large, and the richness of scenic spots ranks first among the four major scenic spots. Is to take pictographic meaning.

The Qinglong Temple Scenic Area is a thousand-year history of the Tujia nationality, which records the ups and downs of the Tujia nationality.

It takes about an hour to visit the Qinglong Temple Scenic Area. From the Qinglong Temple Scenic Area to the transfer station, there is no traffic vehicle in the scenic area at the transfer station. Lin Shenlu asked the security of the scenic spot and told the driver to bring the car over.

This proves that there are indeed few tourists in the Qinglong Temple scenic spot. This is a problem of the scenic spot. It should not be so confusing for tourists to wait. At least the scenic spot should arrange staff to do the corresponding management and service work here. Lin Shenlu really did not meet in the scenic spot. over this situation.

After a while, two more tourists came up. After 20 minutes, the driver drove over and took Lin Shenlu and the four tourists to the next scenic spot.

The next stop is Lianhuazhai Scenic Area, which is not far away.

Lianhuazhai Scenic Area is the scenic spot with the most exquisite scenery and the most abundant strange stones in the Suobuya Scenic Area, and it is also the place with the most tourists.

There is a small square at the entrance of Lianhuazhai Scenic Area, surrounded by stone pillars.

There are many strange peaks around Shenshi Square, majestic and majestic, like armored soldiers, guarding the Lianhua Village, and this square is also called the Iron Armored Village.

The lotus in Lianhuazhai refers to the lotus flower in Shijing. The favorable conditions of time and place make the larger rock here gradually shrink from bottom to top. Deep stone grooves on the stone body cut the entire stone peak into a sheet of lotus. .

Looking down from the air, it looks like lotus flowers blooming in the dense green trees, the green forest is like a spring, and the lotus flowers are blooming in the green spring, which is extremely beautiful.

Walking into Lianhuazhai, you will find strange stones like shaped stones, one after another, and there are also myths and humanistic stories interspersed in it, giving it historical vitality.

The main scenic spots in Lianhuazhai are Zhongxin Stone, Lotus Pavilion, Liangfeng Cave, Buddhist Gate, Thousand Buddha Rocks, Spirit Snake Listening to Zen, Shenhu Hanyu, Nanmen Pass, Lingguang Enlightenment, Buddha's Hand, Group of Frogs Roaring in the Sky, Thumb Mountain, Standing on the Sky, Lotus Terrace, antiphonal stage, rhinoceros ditch, sitting in a well and watching the sky, eagle spreading its wings, etc.

The stone forest in Lianhuazhai Scenic Area is densely distributed. Entering the scenic area through narrow stone gaps is like entering a maze by mistake.

According to the introduction of the scenic spot, looking down from the sky, the whole scenic spot takes stone lotus as flowers and green trees as springs, just like blossoming white lotuses born in green springs.

Stone lotus can be seen everywhere, overwhelming, and there are uncanny natural landscapes everywhere.

The Lianhuazhai is not stained with mud, the Shenshi Square is guarded by armored soldiers, the South Gate is closed by one man, and the bamboo shoots are flowing after the spring rain.

Lianhuazhai is connected to Mozigou Scenic Area, and you can directly enter Mozigou Scenic Area after leaving Lianhuazhai Scenic Area without changing buses.

There is a farmhouse between the two scenic spots, which is a stop for tourists to buffer, rest and eat.

Lin Shenlu and the two of them had a light meal here.

After resting for a while, continue to enter the Mozigou Scenic Area to continue the tour.

Mozigou Scenic Area is dominated by karst caves and natural stone crevices, where birds are singing and flowers are fragrant, flying streams, hanging trees, hanging stones, strange rocks, different peaks and canyons are integrated. It is a fine product carved by nature.

Because the ancestors of the Tujia family, Nuo Gong and Nuo Po, made love here, so this is the birthplace of Tujia and the place where ancient love belongs.

The main scenic spots are Nuopo Stone, Yixiantian, Xiangshui Cave, Mozi Stone and so on.

Mozigou has a special place, Rhinoceros Valley, a deep fissure in the ground. Lin Shenlu walks to the bottom, climbs up from a rotating iron ladder, and comes out of a cave, which is really unique.

In the rhinoceros ditch that can barely accommodate two people side by side, looking up, you can see the steep stone walls around you, full of strange rocks and rocks. If you look forward and upward, you will have a feeling of towering into the clouds.

Jiulonghui is the last scenic spot in Shilin, and it is also the smallest. If you don’t have enough time, you are still tired. It is a scenic spot that can be ignored. Many tourists don’t stay here. Therefore, Lin Shenlu didn't stop, and went directly to the gate of the scenic spot by car.

It is said that in Jiulonghui, there is a shaft with strange rocks, which seems to be worth seeing, but the rest is so-so.

Today's itinerary is not bad, it can also be regarded as admiring the strange stones that have dried up for hundreds of millions of years, and Pinba people have a thousand-year history.

Lin Shenlu at least got a lot of photos of strange rocks.

There are really too many special stones in this stone forest.

Lin Shenlu carefully flipped through the pages.

Well, Lin Shenlu remembers to introduce that this huge rock is Tian Haohan patrolling the mountain, like a mighty general patrolling one side with an artifact in hand, this is the Tu nationality hero Tian Haohan.

There is also this one, called Eagle Spreading Wings Scene.

It is the shape of the sky in this picture taken by Lin Shenlu with the camera facing upwards.

Shooting in the air underground, the gap in the stone just forms a giant eagle.

Of course, the background, light and shooting angle are different, and the effect of shooting is different.

And this lin crown.

One of the three treasures bestowed by the Emperor of Heaven, the crown is inlaid with precious stones, symbolizing the nobles, and the history of the Tujia family begins from then on.

The next boulder photo taken by Lin Shenlu is called Shi En Dian.

King Sui was built to appreciate the kindness of Niang Niang, and his real body is enshrined inside. After vicissitudes, it has become a stone palace.

What Lin Shenlu likes the most is this piece of inspiration.

The stone cracks are slightly opened, and the sunlight shines on it, as if a god suddenly appeared.

Followed by vase stone, the rock is like a slanted vase, with a natural plant on the top of the vase, which grows without soil and is extremely lush.

And the blessing stone is also called undulating stone, five huge rocks, as if in one body, separated by a gully in the middle.

Some of the stones are raised and some are sunken, just like the waves in the sea, undulating...

This is the best embodiment of the stone forest melting pattern landscape.

Dissolution lines are a kind of karst landform, which are formed by the geological action of water on soluble rocks such as carbonate rock, gypsum, rock salt, etc., mainly by chemical dissolution, supplemented by mechanical actions such as flowing water erosion, subsurface erosion and collapse. Stone forest landscape with horizontal stripes.

Looking back, Lin Shenlu found that he really took too many stones with special meanings.

Stone Forest is really a worthwhile trip.

For example, this is called the stone that stands up to the sky. The stone that is less than a few meters supports the huge boulder that falls from the sky. It stands on the ground for thousands of years and is called a jack.

There is also a lotus platform overlooking, and the stone scene looks like lotus blossoms.

There is also camel hump, which is composed of a stone peak connected at the bottom and separated from the upper part, forming the head, body, ridge, and tail respectively. different.

There is also a wedding wine jar shaped like a Tujia fine wine jar in the back.

On the edge of the stone forest, there is a ground fissure with a length of 3 kilometers and a height of more than 10 meters. Here, the stone forest is like a labyrinth under the sea.

The imperial crown, the symbol of the highest power, and the beautiful snake looking back.

There is also a lone ranger, with two cliffs facing each other, naturally forming a narrow passage, which can only allow one person to pass through in one direction.

There is also the scriptures carried by the tortoise-the tortoise carries the scriptures in a square shape and moves forward slowly.

The last thing Lin Shenlu loved in the photo was this affectionate couple. The rocks on both sides formed a natural gap, and there was a coincidence in the middle.
