Not just Huangguoshu! Break into the sky city of the stone castle

Stone-built walls, stone-covered houses Stone-paved roads, stone-made tables Like a 'Stone Kingdom' Time seems to have forgotten here When you walk in, it still retains the look of 600 years ago! Old women in Fengyang Hanfu gather together to embroider flowers The 'drama living fossil' is being performed in the Wuyutang This is the Tunbao that was left over from the early Ming Dynasty Zhu Yuanzhang stabilized the southwest Tune the north to suppress the south, a large number of garrison troops - ⛰ Tianlong Tunbao·Tiantai Mountain 🔸 Tianlong Tunbao: The ground drama, known as the 'drama living fossil', is still being performed in the Wuyutang. The actors of the ground drama wear masks and war skirts, accompanied by a gong and a drum, one person leads the singing and everyone else follows, sometimes talking and singing, sometimes fighting each other, implying that the stars descend to the earth to bless the world. In 2006, Anshun's ground drama was listed as the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage. 🔸 Tiantai Mountain: Tiantai Mountain is a solitary peak in the mountains, with cliffs on three sides, extremely steep, and only a stone step can climb to the top. The temple and the mountain are integrated, and the Ming and Qing architectural complex in the temple is also well preserved. - ⛰ Benzhai·Yunshan Tun Yunshan Tun, Benzhai, Leitun, Xiaoshanzhai and other eight Tunbao villages form Yunfeng Bazhai, which is the core area where the army of the early Ming Dynasty was stationed. Each village has a village wall and a watchtower. The stone outer wall wraps the Jiangnan residential style courtyard. The lanes are connected and the households are connected. It is suitable for living and alley fighting. It is praised by scholars as the 'last fortress of the cold weapon era'. - ⛰ Baojia Tun Baojia Tun is the first Tunbao in the southwest of the Ming Dynasty. Through the main gate, the village wall, Wengcheng, the inner and outer eight array map, and the watchtower cleverly combine military defense and living functions. 'Advance can attack, retreat can defend', can also 'lure the enemy to go deep, defeat each', it can be described as a lot of tricks, killing everywhere. The eight small hills outside the village form the 'Outer Eight Arrays', and the eight commanding heights rely on each other to become the front line of Baojia Tun's defense. Now the fields outside the village are full of rapeseed flowers, walking along the village's water canal to the ancient water mill, there is a bit of the scenery of the Jiangnan water town. - 🚙 Guizhou self-driving route reference: Depart from Guiyang➠ Tianlong Tunbao➠ Tiantai Mountain➠ Baojia Tun➠ Yunshan Tun➠ Benzhai➠ Return
