Beautiful legend

It is said that QiaXi was a beautiful Mongolian princess who was regarded as the apple of her eyes by her father. Once, Princess chaxi came to chaxi with her father on a pastoral tour. After touring chaxi with her maid, she was deeply moved and affected by the beautiful scenery of chaxi like a fairyland, so that she was deeply infatuated with it and forgot to return. After returning to the palace, the princess spent the whole day in reminiscence and reverie of the beautiful scenery of chaxi. She became in a trance and gradually haggard. My father asked me why. Princess day: I went on many tours with my father and visited many famous mountains and rivers, but the beautiful scenery of QiaXi made my daughter deeply infatuated with it and could not be forgotten for a long time. May father and King appreciate my daughter's deep love for the landscape of chaxi, and give her the pastoral land of chaxi. Her daughter will live in chaxi forever without regret. Otherwise, her life will not be long. The father was deeply moved by his daughter's deep love for mountains and rivers, so he gave her the pastoral area and tent of chaxi as the hereditary territory of the princess and her descendants. At the same time, in order to express his love and missing for her, he gave her the name of chaxi.

QiaXi river is known for its ability of digestion, stomach strengthening, disease resistance and pathogen elimination, which can be called high-quality mineral water. It is said that washing face with chaxi river for 7 days can remove wrinkles and nourish the face.

Main attractions

Thin strip of sky

500 meters along the road leads to yixiantian. The upper part of the mountain is about 150 meters high, about 30 meters high, narrow in the South and wide in the north, and only about 2 meters in the narrow place. What's amazing is that the narrow area in the south is several branches of the same width up and down. From the foot of the mountain, the sky turns into a thin line in an instant, and a line of sky gets its name.

Swallow Bridge

There is a large concrete arch bridge between QiaXi folk tourist spot and summer resort, which is called swallow bridge. The bridge is a single hole, 20 meters long and 10 meters wide. The QiaXi river passes under the bridge from south to north. All the way is jubilant and jumping. Yanzi bridge was originally called QiaXi bridge. I don't know when Shanyan took a fancy to this place. They came one after another to build nests on both sides of the bridge and under the arch of the bridge, laying eggs and brooding. Over time, people call the bridge swallow bridge. It is also a rare sight to stand on the bridge and watch the swallow fly on or under the bridge. At dusk, the sun goes down, the snow mountain is red, the sunset is floating, the forest is dyed, the big fish bites, the heart is pounded, the rod is lifted urgently, and the hands are in a hurry. This is a beautiful scene. Yanzi bridge is a masterpiece of perfect combination of artificial landscape and natural landscape. It's one of the highlights of chassi.

Twelve compatriots tree

On the east side of yurt style building No.2 in QiaXi folk custom tourist spot, there is a decaying giant fir that falls to the ground in a north-south direction. On top of the decaying trees, there are 12 spruce trees growing side by side, which is the amazing twelve compatriots tree. The rotten tree is like a mother, and the young tree is like twelve brothers born of one mother. Although the twelve compatriots are different in height, thickness and size, they are all rooted in their mother's tree and grow up by absorbing their mother's nutrition. The twelve compatriots tree nestled close to her mother. Unity and harmony, healthy growth. When you admire the magic of nature and the greatness of maternal love, you will also be enlightened by life.

Giant frog looks at Tianshan Mountain

Starting from QiaXi folk custom tourist spot, Shundong gorge is about 6 kilometers south. On the west side of the gorge, there are mountains climbing up, surrounded by dense, tall and continuous green cedar. On the east side of the gorge, there are high mountains and grasslands with green grass, flowers, cattle and sheep. Close to the top of the mountain, there is a giant rock that looks like a frog. It seems to be looking up at the Tianshan Mountain in the distance. The giant frog looks at the Tianshan Mountain, hence its name.

Weeping willow in Shimen

From giant frog to Tianshan Mountain, the scenic spot ascends along the gorge. The mountain becomes steeper and the gorge becomes narrower and narrower. About 3 kilometers, a surging river blocked the way. More than 10 meters in front, the mountains on both sides almost collide with each other. There are cliffs on both sides. In the middle of the cliffs, there is a stone gate which is less than 10 meters wide on the top and only 3-4 meters wide on the bottom. On the cliffs, the green fir stands, the willow branches are low, and under the cliffs, the river falls from the bottom and flies away. This is the stone gate weeping willow, one of the famous landscapes in QiaXi.

Eagle cliff

About one kilometer eastward from the first line of the sky, the river faces the water to the north, and the towering cliff is eagle cliff. Eagle cliff is about 500 meters long from east to west and more than 100 meters high. It faces the river at the bottom and the mountains at the top. The cliff is steep and dangerous. Strangely, the cliffs are covered with countless holes and crevices of different sizes, depths and shapes, and countless wild pigeons fly in and out. According to the old people, in the 50s and 60s, this is the East Garden of all kinds of eagles. There are countless Eagles nesting here to lay eggs. Breeding and brooding. As passers-by passed by, eagles swarmed overhead, whistling and whirling. The scene was magnificent and dangerous. It was creepy and quick. Unfortunately, with the deterioration of the ecological environment and the wanton hunting and killing of human beings, the landscape in the past has disappeared. Facing the eagle cliff where there are no eagles, people should be sober, cherish animals and protect nature when they are suffering and sighing!

Melaleuca wall

After passing the kapuqihai bridge, walk about 5 km southward along the canyon to the qiancengbi scenic spot. Here is the narrowest part of kapuqihai gorge. To the East is the mountain road built by digging mountains. At the bottom of the gorge is a narrow river less than 10 meters wide and more than 10 meters lower than the road surface. The surging tekeqi river flows from south to north. In the west, the mountain with peculiar landscape is qiancengbi. The thousand storey wall is several meters high and 200 meters wide from north to south. Looking up at the thousand layer wall, it is steep and beautiful, standing on the wall and pointing to the sky. It's amazing that the whole rock wall seems to be cut vertically from top to bottom by a highly skilled chef with a knife, layer by layer, piece by piece, with vertical strips. The knife seam is clear, and the thickness is appropriate. The wide part can accommodate the body, and the narrow part is difficult to insert a pen: the protruding part is rich. Especially strange is that there are two stone Gorges in the north, parallel to each other, with a distance of about 3 or 4 meters. From the top, it seems to be a path leading to the top of the mountain or to the valley. The beauty of the thousand story landscape is amazing.

Gilgarang fountain

Not far from the valley, there is a bridge on the east side of the road. On the west side of the bridge, a clear spring gushes out from the ground. This is the holy spring of jigarang. The spring is not very big, the bowl mouth is thick and thin, the summer does not increase, the winter does not reduce, the water is bright as a mirror, clear to the bottom, the summer drink is cold, the winter drink is warm and sweet. It is said that spring water has the effect of detumescence and distension, antipyretic and dispelling wind, strengthening body, nourishing face and helping pregnancy. When the pedestrians come here, they all rush to drink. Those who are careful will come prepared. After drinking enough, they will fill the plastic bucket prepared in advance and take it back to give it to relatives and friends or family members for tasting. There is an endless stream of admirers. Because the legend is quite magical, it is called Shenquan.
