Guanyinxia scenic spot is the entrance of Yulong Pass, one of the six major parks of Lijiang Bazi. It is located at the "Yulong Pass" of the three major parks of Lijiang Bazi and is known as "the first scenery of Lijiang". Lijiang Guanyin Gorge is a scenic area based on natural scenery such as mountains, canyons, forests and lakes, and integrated with the ancient tea-horse street, Naxi villages, folk customs, religious customs and other humanistic landscapes. Manxiong Guanqiutang Road and long tea-horse-dian Tibetan feelings are the portrayal of Lijiang Guanyin Gorge. It is the first dangerous fortress on the Dian-Zang Line of the ancient tea-horse road. Xu Xiake entered Lijiang from this point. Jiang, Qiutangguan is described as "Lijun Lock Key". When entering this "Lijun Lock Key", he enters the gate of Lijiang. Only when entering this gate can he count as coming from the main gate to Lijiang.

Tourist route

Starting from the ancient city of Lijiang, we enter the scenic spot of Guanyin Gorge in Lijiang in half an hour. First, we arrive at the "Tea-Horse Road Point" at the entrance. The Tea-Horse Road is a non-governmental international trade passageway in southwestern China, which takes the Ma Gang as the main means of transportation. It originated from the tea-horse market in the southwestern frontier of ancient China. It flourished in Tang and Song Dynasties and flourished in Ming and Qing Dynasties. It can be Guanyin Gorge is the only crossing and military fortress of the ancient tea-horse road from Lijiang to Tibet along the Yunnan-Tibet line in history. After the Tea-Horse Road and Mujiaqiao, we arrived at Mujia's other courtyard, which was the tax office set up by the Civil Chieftain in that year. Mujia other courtyard fully embodies the architectural style of Naxi's three halls, one shining wall, four-in-five courtyard, elegant six-in-one door and standard honeycomb wall. Walking on the ancient street of tea horse, one can't help but think of the brilliance of the Dama Gang in the past. The Tianxiang Pagoda, which is a unique sacrificial pagoda for the Naxi people, can also be seen on the way forward with small stones, one by one, bonded by stacks and bases; the Xiakating Pavilion where Xu Xiake once stayed; and the Tibetan Academy of Culture with a strong religious atmosphere. Walking through the busy market, the green gradually becomes dense, green and dark, fragrant with wild flowers; weeping willows are reflected in the quiet lake water, up and down the sky, 10,000 hectares.

The ancient Yunnan-Tibet Teahouse is situated between the green bamboos and willows, which stands out against the background of the lake. Passing through a dense bamboo forest is a mountain tunnel about 385 meters long, which can be passed by electric train. "Heavy mountains and rivers have no way out, bright willows, dark flowers and another village", "Tanyue does not follow the water, the wind from the gorge and the tide of people" crossed the tunnel, more than 100 meters ahead is Guanyin gorge, there are stone tablets: "Lijiang Guanyin gorge" gorge quiet, peaks stand high, and the sound of water is heard. Turning around the peak, I saw a waterfall flying down, very fast and arrows, there is indeed the potential of the Milky Way to fall for nine days. This is the Guanyin Waterfall in Lijiang. There are standing statues of Guanyin in the caves beside it. So it is called Guanyin Gorge. Guanyin Waterfall is the end, with the rolling torrent, treading on the clutch and returning to the glory, climbing along the stone level, only to see Hengke shelter, in the daytime dusk, sparse intersection, sometimes see the sun, fantastic flowers and plants, fighting beautiful, fresh mountain breeze, refreshing. Undoubtedly, today's Guanyin Gorge is still the Guanyin Gorge in Xu Xiake's eyes. Its courtyard, its alleys, its rivers and its distant Yulong Snow Mountain all contain a deep and ancient history. But today's Guanyin Gorge is no longer the Guanyin Gorge in the past. It bid farewell to the vast and desolate West Yunnan Post Road and bid farewell to the murkiness. Chaotic closed-door self-defense, today's Lijiang has opened up a road to the world outside the mountains.

Layout of scenic spots

Lijiang is located on the main road leading to Yunnan-Tibet, Nujiang and Bashu. It is an important place in the transition zone between Yunnan and Sichuan in terms of geographical location. It has become the largest transit station and distribution center for trade between Yunnan and Tibet. Qihe Qiutangguan is located in the key passage of Lijun, where the merchants and businessmen from Malayan Band gather. Therefore, in those days, Lord Mu cut the manor here and guarded the danger of the town gate, which was for the purpose of "Mujia Beyond the Courtyard". The Mujia Beiyuan fully embodies the architectural style of Naxi's three halls, one shining wall, four-in-five patio, elegant six-in-one door and standard honeycomb wall. Walking on Tea Horse Street is reminiscent of the past glory of the Dama Gang. Today, there are many old workshops and shops in the ancient street, such as carpenter's shop, cobbler's shop, copper and iron shop, silver shop, inn, pub and shop. Nowadays, these shops have resumed normal business, and also provide a platform for tourists outside Guanyin Gorge to share the original national ecological culture. They display Dongba script works, woodcarving, wood carving, root carving, embroidery, painting and calligraphy in various forms, inheriting the ancient Naxi culture.
