The MOST dangerous tunnel in China🤯😱
A few months ago, my friend and I explored the Guoliang Tunnel in The Wanxian Mountains, also known as one of China's most dangerous roads.
One of the reasons it holds this title is because of the way it was built. The 2 km tunnel was hand- carved by local mountain villagers, many of whom lost their lives working on this "sky ladder".
After 5 years of construction and 4000 hammers, this road now links the Guoliang village to the outside world.
Today, it can be dangerous to drive through the narrow and steep tunnel to the mountain, but after seeing the breathtaking caves, it is absolutely worth it! 🗻
Come mentality and physically prepared!! 🙏

⛱️ In the homestay, the stream on the B1 floor flows through the bamboo forest, 🌟 bringing bursts of coolness to this quiet space. Each room has large floor-to-ceiling windows, ♨️ allowing you to enjoy the surrounding mountains and greenery, as if being gently embraced by nature. 🍵
⛱️ Infinite surprises. Open the curtains in the morning, and you will be greeted by stunning scenery. 🌴 Large terrace, bathtub, infinity pool...

Seasonal ingredients, paired with the chef's superb cooking skills, every bite is a gift from nature. 🥰 In addition, there are wild fish raised in the private pond on the B1 floor, which can be caught and eaten at any time, extremely fresh!

Here are some recommended hotels in Baligou! The super nice Qingliangge Guesthouse.
I've already written a guide to Baligou, please see my pinned post. 📒
Today, I'm going to recommend some hotels in Baligou. Baligou is a combination of several scenic areas. Jiulianshan is for worshiping Buddha, Baligou is for playing in the water, and Tianjieshan is for hiking.
After entering the parking lot at the entrance of the scenic area, you have to walk about 10 km to reach the gate of Baligou Scenic Area. Therefore, the guesthouses along the way are relatively scattered. Some guesthouses are inside Baligou Scenic Area, some are at the entrance of the scenic area, and some are about 1 or 2 km from the entrance of the scenic area.
🌟 Qingliangge Guesthouse is located on a slope about 500 meters from the entrance of the scenic area. The location is great, and the view is particularly beautiful. There are a total of 20 rooms. It doesn't look very impressive from the outside, but the rooms are nicely decorated. The bed runners and throw pillows are all matching, and the central air conditioning is very comfortable. It's rare to find a guesthouse with central air conditioning.
🌟 The bathtub rooms on the front side of the hotel have large floor-to-ceiling glass balconies. When you open the curtains, you can see the scenery on three sides. The majestic mountains stretch endlessly, and the white curtains hang down, making it a great place for photos. The back of the hotel has an open terrace, closer to the mountains, with branches right in front of you. The fresh air after the rain and the scent of grass are refreshing.
🌟 Most importantly, the price is not high. The suites, which are large and come with a living room, bathtub, and balcony, are only listed as double rooms by the owner and are sold for just over 300 yuan. Finding such a room while traveling is like finding a hidden gem.
I highly recommend this guesthouse. I was amazed when I went to take photos. The entrance is very ordinary, but the inside is very nice. It's a guesthouse with great value for money!

✅If you drive, remember to park in P1 or P2 parking lot, which is closer to the visitor center.
✅ Some sections of the mountain road require hiking, and there is no supermarket supply in the middle. Fortunately, I prepared Xiangpiaopiao Original Leaf Freshly Brewed Light Milk Tea 🍃 in advance. It can be brewed with cold/hot water, which is very convenient to carry outdoors. Real tea leaves are freshly brewed, and the tea aroma, milk aroma, and jasmine aroma are perfectly integrated. Take a sip while hiking, and you will be instantly energized.
✅When taking the bus, remember to leave your contact information with the driver. The driver will call you to ask if you want to take the bus when the bus is about to close, so you won't miss the bus.

Guoliang Hanging Highway
Guoliang Hanging Highway, also known as Guoliang Cave, is located in Guoliang Village, Shayao Township, Huixian City, Xinxiang City, Henan Province. It is a famous hanging highway. It was started in 1972 and completed in 1977, all by the villagers of Guoliang Village. Among them, the thirteen villagers who were mainly responsible for excavation were called the "Thirteen Heroes of Guoliang Cave". This highway is known as one of the "ten most dangerous roads in the world" and one of the "18 most peculiar highways in the world".
The construction of Guoliang Hanging Highway embodies the indomitable spirit of the Chinese nation. During the construction process, no machinery was used, and it was all excavated by manpower. It took more than 5 years to build this passable road. Its opening to traffic has made Guoliang Village, a cliff village hidden in the mountains and steep cliffs, appear in front of the world, becoming the first scenic spot of Wanxian Mountain, a national 4A-level scenic spot in Huixian City, Henan Province.
The Guoliang Hanging Highway is 1,250 meters long, 5 meters high, and 4 meters wide. It is an artificial tunnel excavated on the 400-meter-high cliff of South Taihang, also known as "Guoliang Cave". During the construction process, a total of 60,000 workers were invested, 24,000 cubic meters of stone chips were cleared, 12 tons of steel drills were consumed, and 2,000 hammers. At that time, Guoliang Village invested 80,000 yuan to dig a hole, and invested another 400,000 yuan for expansion in 2001.
Today, Guoliang Hanging Highway is not only a famous tourist attraction, but also an important source of income for local villagers. Its existence not only shows the magnificent epic of the struggle between man and nature, but also becomes a valuable spiritual wealth to inspire future generations. Tourists can take the scenic spot's tourist bus into the scenic spot, and they will pass the hanging highway on the way. After reaching the terminal, you can get off and return to Guoliang Cave for a visit. For safety reasons, private cars are currently not allowed to enter the scenic area.
