Underground River in Wei Zi Cave

When you drive to Hefei, you can't miss the tourist corridor around Chaohu Lake. You can walk the whole Chaohu Lake by car, with a journey of about 160 km, which takes half a day. The most shocking thing is the magnificent Chaohu Lake. When you look at it up close for the first time, you will feel like the sea. Surrounded by lakes and mountains, rich historical and cultural heritage, hot spring ancient soup, famous temples, ancient towns and ancient cities, etc. It's really the right way to China, to road trip and Internet celebrities.

The scenic spot that can't be missed in the whole process around Chaohu Lake is Zhongmiao Laoshan Island, which runs northeast along the north bank of Chaohu Lake and goes to Zhongmiao Scenic Area. Along the way, you will pass through the National Forest Wetland Park, the ancient town of He Changlin and some ancient villages in Chaohu Lake, and the beautiful scenery along the way will make people linger!

If the 800-mile Chaohu Lake is a string of dazzling pearls, then Laoshan Island is the most dazzling gem embedded in this string of pearls. I thought Laoshan Island was not big, so I guess it was just so-so. I didn't expect it to feel like I was in the sea.

The Chinese Temple is located on Lake Phoenix Cave, backed by Siding Mountain, facing the 800-mile Chaohu Lake, between Guigeng Juchao House and Hefei, so it is called the "Chinese Temple" and is known as the "first scene in the lake". Because of the strong incense in the past dynasties, it is known as "South Jiuhua, North Tiangong". Unfortunately, because of the time, I just wanted to see the lakes and mountains, but I didn't go there to visit.

If you just want to see the scenery of temples and lakes, you don't have to go to the island, but most people will buy tickets to take a cruise ship in the scenic spot to visit Laoshan Island. You must board the island by boat when you come to the scenic spot of Laoshan Island in Zhongmiao! It's an island in the lake. Boarding a sightseeing cruise ship really gives me the feeling of boarding a ship in Sanya, Hainan. Taking a shot is like the sea.

There is still a feeling of excitement when boarding a sightseeing cruise ship. The birds in the sky are hovering, and looking at the ships in the distance really seems to be an illusion on the coast. Due to the foggy weather in winter, the islands in the lake are looming, and you can only see them clearly when the ship approaches. This time, due to the limited travel time, I just walked around the island by boat without landing on the island.

When I approached the island, I saw a group of people really living there. They should be residents of the island. They actually feel like a paradise. There are buildings, streets, restaurants and vegetable fields on the island. There are lush trees on the island, and Laoshan Island is surrounded by water, just like a leaf floating in the water. It is the only "oasis on the lake" in the 800-mile Chaohu Lake. The most iconic building on the island is Wenfeng Pagoda. Climb to the top of Wenfeng Tower and you can see the scenery around Chaohu Lake.

After visiting Zhongmiao Laoshan Island, you can drive eastward along Binhu Avenue for one hour to reach Weizidong Scenic Area. As soon as you enter the scenic spot, you can see that there is another factory inside, including Hoonji and Siwangting. If the whole trip takes two hours, due to the limited time, you will go directly to Wei Zi Cave.

Wei Zi Cave is different from other caves. It is a rare underground river cave with distinctive characteristics in China. The total length of Weizi Cave is1500m, with a wide body and a three-dimensional structure. There are 65,438+00 caves, 36 main scenes and 72 auxiliary scenes in the cave. First, the land tour, then the water rafting. The landscape in the cave is peculiar, and it is famous for its masculinity, strangeness, danger and seclusion.

It's cool in the cave, so you should wear more clothes when visiting in winter. The layering formed in the cave is very clear. Although there are not many stalactites inside, they are all lifelike, especially the "fairy game", which is really lifelike, and we have to marvel at the strangeness of nature.

There is an underground river not far away. This 100 meter long underground river must be crossed by ships. The widest part of the river is five or six meters, and the narrowest part is only over one meter. Some rocks are only a few tens of centimeters apart. After crossing the underground river by boat, they followed the light to the exit, and it was getting dark. Happy and beautiful times always pass quickly, and the journey is basically full. But I don't feel tired at all.
