The ancient tree village on the cliff is a paradise for hikers

Imagine that standing in the clouds of the Dadu River Gorge, there is a small village hidden in the clouds and mist. That is Gulu Village, which has a profound cultural heritage of the Yi people. Here, there is a sky road hanging on the cliff, which has now become a secret paradise for hiking enthusiasts. It is said that the people in this village once dreamed of having a road that they could walk on. Do you know? During the construction of the railway from Kunming to Chengdu, workers installed steel ladders on the most dangerous "Xiantian" cliff, ending the villagers' "swinging" method of traveling by relying on trees and vines. It’s really thrilling and exciting! In 2003, the government and villagers worked together to dig a road only a few dozen centimeters wide on the cliff. The villagers affectionately called it the "Happy Road"❤️. This road is not only a connection to the outside world, but also their beautiful expectations for future life. In Gulu Village, I deeply understood the spirit of "making roads when encountering mountains and building bridges when meeting waters". The story here is the best interpretation of courage and tenacity in life's challenges. Coordinates: Gulu Village, Yongli Township, Hanyuan County, Ya'an, Sichuan
