Tianmo

Tianmo is located in Longbao mountain in the southwest of the East Garden of Huailai County, 90 kilometers away from Beijing. It is connected with Badaling Great Wall and Kangxi grassland. It is a barren land from Beijing in the West. There are two magnificent salons here. Dongshalong is more than 300 meters long from north to south, xishalong is nearly 1000 meters long from south to north, with a width of more than 100 meters and a height of about 30 meters, covering an area of nearly 500 mu. The tourist area is adjacent to the majestic Qipan mountain in the South and the Haohao Guanting water in the north. The golden salon in the orchard, grassland and Gobi, together with the mountains, Gobi and lakes, forms an extraordinary landscape. It can't help but make people sigh that "the desert is lonely and smoke is straight, and the river is falling". There is no sand source within hundreds of kilometers around the desert, which is due to the northwest gale? Local sand gathering? Can water be diverted? Although the mapping has been studied, it is still a mystery.

Tianmo

"Tianmo" is located in Longbao mountain in the southwest of xiaonanxinbao Town, Huailai County, 90 kilometers away from Beijing. It connects with Badaling Great Wall and Kangxi grassland, and is composed of mountains, Gobi, desert and lakes.

Tianmo, a miniature desert with an area of only 1300 mu, is located in the southwest of Guanting Reservoir in Huailai County, Hebei Province. Around the desert are ordinary farmland.

Due to its unique charm of natural scenery, it has become one of the best locations for films and TV plays at home and abroad to choose Western scenery. In recent years, more than 300 films and TV plays have been shot here, such as "decisive battle", "Mummy 3", "Romance of the three Kingdoms", "journey to the west", "huanzhu gege", "granary of the world", "smoke and cloud of Beijing", "flying armour of Longmen".

Introduction to Tianmo

Huailai County, about 70 kilometers away from Beijing, has a natural desert covering an area of 1300 mu. It is located at the foot of Yanshan mountain on the south side of Guanting reservoir, the famous hometown of eight edged crabapple. Between the mountains and rivers, there is a golden sand dune, which stretches for more than ten miles. It is very strange and spectacular. It is called "Tianmo".

East salon is more than 300 meters long from north to south, and Xisha dragon is nearly 1000 meters long from south to north, with a width of more than 100 meters. It is estimated that it is more than 30 meters high, which is very spectacular. The golden salon in the orchard, grassland and Gobi, together with the mountains, Gobi and lakes, depicts the color picture of "the desert is straight and the river is falling". It is said that it came from Inner Mongolia. It was brought here by the wind. It is the product of the interaction of long-term natural and human activities.

Tianmo, 25 kilometers from Badaling, is the nearest desert to Beijing. The desert area is small, but the cause of formation is strange, which is still a mystery. It is adjacent to the towering Qipan mountain in the South and the beautiful Guanting Lake in the north. A large number of beacon towers, shanggujun ruins, ancient castles and other historical sites are clearly visible on the ridge. And with mountains, Gobi, orchards, lakes and other landscape constitute a special landscape, can not help but make people feel "desert smoke straight, long river down yen" feeling, is an ideal resort for national defense education, environmental education and tourism. After four years of development and construction, it has formed a unique Tianmo park. The scenic spot is well-known in Beijing and its surrounding areas. Tianmo park has become a large resort integrating tourism and fitness, film and television base, environmental education base, etc. Here, visitors can take the sand slide board, slide down from the sand pile, experience the long lost children's fun, drive the desert off-road vehicle, bump forward on the Gobi grass desert, light the bonfires and fireworks at night, and enjoy the local folk customs.

Standing in the desert, you can see the Guanting Reservoir in the north and the mangmangjundu mountains in the south. If you look at it carefully, there are rammed earth beacons at the foot of the mountain, which are arranged from west to East. That is the remains of Yan Great Wall in the Warring States period. It can be said that the natural and cultural landscape here is unique around Beijing.

Mountains, Gobi, desert, lakes, ancient beacon towers and the old stage in the mountain village constitute a unique landscape. There is no industry here, far away from the noise, only tranquility. At the foot of the green mountains and on the shore of the green water, the mangmangmang salon rises abruptly, with sand skiing, sand wrestling, horse riding, sand bathing, and cross-country vehicle. The capital city not only views the customs of the western regions, but also explores the secrets of nature.

Cause of formation

A typical feature of Tianmo is that it has "clear boundaries". Around Tianmo, there is a clear and recognizable contour line. Even within a short distance from this contour line, there is ordinary farmland. Moreover, in the eastern part of the desert, a part of the sand has been transported away, and there is a sharp dividing line between the bare ground and the accumulated sand. The ground is composed of purple black coarse gravel, which is quite different from the accumulated sand in the desert. This shows that the sand in the desert is not piled up from the ground, and it is not integrated with the land below. There is no sand source within a few hundred kilometers around the desert. There are also many versions of its origin, such as the theory of electromagnetic origin, the theory of wind sand forming, the theory of weathering origin, the theory of sand rising on the spot and so on.

As for the formation of wind blown sand, there is a saying that it was formed after the dust fell because of the strong northwest airflow carrying the dust of Inner Mongolia Plateau, which was blocked by Jundu mountain. However, there is no final conclusion on the exact cause, and the cause of desert is still a mystery.

economic development

economic forest

Huailai is the "moat" of Beijing, charged with the task of preventing sand for Beijing. In order to build a "green barrier" in Beijing, Huailai County has made greater efforts to plant trees here. Huailai is located outside the Great Wall, with large temperature difference between day and night and sandy soil. It is not only suitable for the cultivation of grapes, apples and begonias, but also suitable for the growth of pear, jujube and apricot flat trees. The quality of the fruits planted is higher than that of similar fruits, and the price is also higher than that of similar fruits. Nowadays, the annual income of planting economic forest for sand prevention is 2000 yuan, which is better than planting grain. The original grain growers have become tree growers. The country is green and the farmers are profitable.

tourism

Located in the southeast of Huailai County, xiaonanxinpu town has become a large-scale resort integrating tourism and fitness, film and television base, environmental protection education, and a cash cow for local people to get rich.

"Tianmo" has been developed into a tourist attraction by the county. Sand lovers can enjoy a series of sand skiing, sand wrestling and other tours here as long as they are willing to spend 20 yuan. Several households in this village have raised camels for tourists to ride. It is reported that the hourly rent is more than 100 yuan, which not only makes tourists feel like "Sahara", but also fills the money bags of farmers. After busy farming, the villagers are very happy The horses used for farming are used one after another. The daily rent of each horse is 50 yuan, and the annual income of more than 30 households in the village is more than 10000 yuan. In addition, the crew also needs bricklayers, carpenters, builders and shelving workers, all of whom will choose the local people first.

Film and television industry

A new way for people to make money. The natural advantage of Tianmo has become the best place for films, TV dramas and advertisements to choose "Western scenery". Wang Yongxian, the village branch secretary of Longbaoshan village, said: "the villagers of Longbaoshan village have seen Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Michelle Yeoh and many other big stars. They have recruited many local people to act as actors in the film." In Longbaoshan village, there are more than 670 people in 180 households. Most of them have worked as mass actors. Wang Yongxian said that the daily remuneration of mass actors is about 50 yuan. After a month, villagers can earn about 1000 yuan only as actors.

Ecological protection

Treatment of Tianmo by General Assembly Engineer

Every windy season, the desert is filled with yellow sand. The rapidly deteriorating ecological environment makes Beijing face serious dust hazards. In 2003, it was designated as a pilot unit of the "three wasteland" control project of the whole army. In 2004, it became the "three wasteland" afforestation base of the General Assembly troops in Beijing. In the past seven years, nearly 20000 people (Times) from the general assembly department and the troops stationed in Beijing came to the test site to carry out voluntary tree planting activities. From generals to soldiers, from organs to grass-roots units, under the hard work of the officers and soldiers, a windbreak and sand fixation forest belt with a length of 8 kilometers and an area of more than 20000 mu, composed of more than 2 million trees, has been built in this experimental site. The ecological environment has been significantly improved, so that the area of the well-known "Tianmo" has been reduced, the quicksand has been fixed, and green grass has grown in some parts of the sand dunes.

The nearest desert to Beijing: tree planting has become an oasis for 13 years

It is the common mission of Beijing and Hebei to fight against Tianmo and delay its advance to Beijing. Today, the movement speed of the desert surrounded by trees is almost stagnant. The area is controlled to more than 200 mu for landscape, and the surrounding 100000 mu of desert and wasteland has been turned into millions of trees.

Film and television shooting

People here can not only slide sand, climb sand dunes, ride camels, but also have the opportunity to watch the shooting scene of movies and TV dramas. Hebei Tianmo film and television base is located in xiaonanxinpu town. Huailai has become a shooting base for domestic films and TV series.

The natural scenery of "Tianmo" in Huailai County has become one of the best locations for films and TV dramas at home and abroad to choose Western scenery; "Jiming ancient post" is the largest, most complete and most functional ancient post city in China so far, enjoying the reputation of "the first post office in the world". For Beijing, which has gathered film and television production companies that account for 60% of the country's film and television production, Huailai has not only become the first choice for short-term tourism of Beijing and Tianjin tourists, but also become a film and television base for film and television production, receiving more than 20 film and television production teams every year.
