Regional introduction

Bajiaozhai, also known as Yuntai Mountain, is located at the junction of Datuo village, Meixi Town, Ziyuan County, Guangxi and Langshan Scenic Spot, Langshan Town, Xinning County, Hunan. Bajiaozhai area belongs to Ziyuan County on one side and Xinning County on the other, so it has two names: Xinning bajiaozhai and Ziyuan bajiaozhai.

Bajiaozhai is located at the border of Hunan and Guangxi, the northwest of Yuechengling mountain, which is the longest one in Wuling mountains (more than 200 kilometers long). It is a typical Danxia landform. Experts call it "the soul of Danxia, the national treasure" and "one of the seven most beautiful Danxia in China". National Geographic of China published the final ranking of 114 "the most beautiful places in China" in the "beauty China special" (Hardcover Revised Edition). Zijiang bajiaozhai Langshan Danxia landform ranks among the "seven most beautiful Danxia Landforms in China": Danxia Landform in Ziyuan County covers an area of 125 square kilometers, and Xinning County covers an area of 108 square kilometers

Zizibajiaozhai Xinning Langshan has formed a comprehensive scenic spot with complementary advantages. The scenic spot is located in a narrow and long red bed basin, which is composed of purple red conglomerate and sandstone of Lower Cretaceous system, extending from Xinning County in Hunan to Ziyuan County in Guangxi. In bajiaozhai scenic area, a huge layer of calcareous cemented purplish red conglomerate, glutenite and mudstone with thickness of more than 2000 meters was deposited in the early Cretaceous of Mesozoic era 140 million years ago.

The main peak of bajiaozhai is 818 meters above sea level. The complex geological structure and unique climatic conditions make the unique landscape of Danfeng mountain, picturesque mountains and Danya in blue water. Known as "the soul of world Danxia" and "the wonder of world Danxia" by geological, landscape and tourism experts. In 2005, it was selected as one of the seven most beautiful Danxia in China.

There are 67 million years old Cretaceous red glutenite in bajiaozhai nature reserve, which is eroded by surface water along vertical joints, forming a typical Danxia landform rarely seen in China. Looking down from the main peak of bajiaozhai, which is 818 meters high, dozens of mountain parcels with a height difference of 60-80 meters are arranged in a large area. People call them "group snails watching the sky", and the scenery is magnificent. In the area where Danxia landform and flowing water landform are combined, the strange rocks on both sides of Fuyi River are like forest, objects and scenery, such as Fengfan stone, Dadu Luohan, torch mountain, god elephant drinking water, a line of sky, Tianmen, etc., which are vivid and amazing. The river bed is slow and rapid, and the geomorphic characteristics of the two walls are obvious.

Ecological landscape contains geological landscape, and also has a good vegetation and forest landscape. A large number of precious tree species, exotic flowers and plants are distributed in the garden. Rare birds and beasts are hidden and appear in the garden, and flowers and birds are everywhere throughout the year. Photo Expo

Views of tourists

Bajiaozhai is a whole (eight peaks), but it belongs to Ziyuan County on one side and Xinning County on the other. The name of bajiaozhai in Xinning and zizibajiaozhai is actually a whole.

Zizibajiaozhai Xinning Langshan has formed a comprehensive scenic spot with complementary advantages.

Hengyang tourist group's view (explanation - not involving other people's view) is that only when bajiaozhai, a scenic spot of Guangxi resources, and the hot pepper peak, Luotuofeng and tianyixiang scenic spots of Langshan in Shaoyang, Hunan Province are taken together, can it be considered complete

Danxia peak forest

The peak is 450-818 meters high. Narrow "U" or "V" shaped valleys are often formed between the peaks. The peaks are obviously characterized by "sloping top, steep body and gentle foot". They are square mountains, stone walls, stone pillars, steep cliffs or smooth cone or tower shapes. Such as castle, trench, hidden thousands of troops, ready to go, grand atmosphere, it is a great pride.

Danxia lonely peak

It is the result of further development of Danxia peak forest. Gufeng is surrounded by relatively flat valleys or low mountain peaks with low density. A single peak looks like a red apricot. The isolated peak is generally in the shape of stone wall, stone pillar and Rock Fort.

Danxia peak

It is distributed in Danxia peak forest and other areas. The mountain is smooth and continuous, the surface is mostly covered by weathering layer, and the vegetation is developed, just like a Zhuang brocade around the park.

Danxia landform

It is mainly distributed in Danxia peak forest and Danxia Gufeng area. The micro landforms formed by water erosion are: Shizhai, Shixiang, Shiliang, Shicao, concave, ZhangGu, narrow valley, Shifeng, erosion patterns. The micro landforms formed by collapse are: stone wall, Rock Fort, stone pillar, giant rock collapse cave, Tianshengqiao and Gufeng. The micro landforms formed by weathering and dissolution include peak cave, frontal cave and flat cave.

Liang Yongning, head of the expert consultation group of China's Danxia World Heritage application, wrote in his article "brilliant Danxia, shining the style of Hunan Province": I went to Langshan for the first time with the senior World Natural Heritage expert sansel (he was the one who applied for the world natural heritage in Wulingyuan, Hunan Province in 1992). This old sang has been to more than 100 countries in the world and has seen countless natural beauty. Before he came to Langshan, he was not optimistic about the application for the world heritage of Danxia landform. However, when he reached the top of Bajiao village and saw the wonderful Danxia landscape of Lang mountain, he was surprised and said, "it seems that the real scene is still different from the photos." There is also the IUCN expert wobois who came to investigate and evaluate "China Danxia". When he came to the top of bajiaozhai mountain, he immediately turned around and said several times: "thank you, thank you for bringing me to such a wonderful place.

Hengyang City tourist group's view (explanation - does not involve other people's view) is: the most beautiful and touching place of Langshan is the panoramic view of Danxia from the top of bajiaozhai peak. Taking a broad view, the ups and downs of Danxia peak are magnificent. If you don't go to bajiaozhai in Langshan, it's a great pity

Fog spectacle

Due to the diversity of land types and the great change of climate temperature difference, various special celestial landscapes can be seen from time to time. One of the most valuable is the fog scenery of bajiaozhai.

On the top of bajiaozhai in the early morning, the dense fog is close to your toes and far away from the end of the world. It is as quiet as a fairyland. When the light wind passes, the fog is like a thousand troops and horses gathering together, calling for rushing and killing, joining forces to capture the mountains and waving banners. When the mountains around the peaks and the long white fog merge, the white fog becomes waves, wave after wave, wave after wave, and the peaks in the sea of clouds rise or fall When the wind is still, the sea will be flat and the waves will be still. When the sun rises to the East, it will sprinkle thousands of wisps of golden light, and the sky will be red as Dan, and the fog will be red as fire. Chaoxia stretched out countless delicate hands and pulled the white fog gently like a curtain. The peaks burst out of the clouds and broke the fog, and the clouds surged to the peaks and floated like a thousand sails racing across the river. A variety of strange peaks and mountains, winding paths and secluded deep valleys appeared and disappeared, and a group of great rivers and mountains could be displayed in front of us

There are more than 130 scenic spots in the whole scenic area, such as "descending Longyan", "qunluoguantian", "longtouxiang", "eye stone" and "baodaofeng", all of which come from the uncanny workmanship of nature. When you climb the main peak, you can get a bird's-eye view of it, steep cliffs and peaks standing one by one. There are thousands of beautiful sceneries in the mountains, such as sea of clouds, belt of clouds, waves of clouds, lake of clouds, sunrise, light of Buddha, and so on. You are often confused by the secluded valleys. Those who climb to the top of the mountain are awe inspiring.
