Trip to the Martyrs' Cemetery in Pingbian County III Shuichongzi Martyrs Mausoleum, Shuichongzi Martyrs Mausoleum is located on the east side of the county town, 0 from the city center. 5 km, with the Revolutionary Martyrs Monument as the boundary, divided into two gardens, east and west, a total area of ​​64.8 acres, the east garden covers an area of ​​23.54 acres, along the 96 meters long, 3.5 meters wide 229 stone steps, is a 225.9 square meters promenade, then 5 meters long and 3 meters high mausoleum monument sequence.

Pingbian Martyrs' Cemetery (Travel 1) The Pingbian Martyrs' Cemetery is located on the outskirts of Pingbian Miao Autonomous County, Yunnan Province. It was founded in 1970 and expanded in 1979. It consists of two mausoleums, Shuichongzi and Dalongshu, covering a total area of ​​75 acres. The tombs of the martyrs are rectangular, made of cement boards and tiles. There are bluestone and red granite tablets in front of the tombs. The mausoleum is surrounded by cement patterned stalls and iron stalls. There are monuments, pavilions, promenades, Chan Lie rooms, reception rooms, and complex buildings in the park.

Travelogue of Dishui Miao Village: The Cloudy Miao Homeland by the Shepherd River Passing by Pingbian Station, a cluster of buildings woven with beige and blue tiles comes into view—this is Dishui Miao Village, a new town born from legends and landscapes. It lacks the weathered bricks of ancient cities but, in another way, condenses a millennium of Miao culture into a tangible modern poetry. Stepping into the "One Prefecture and Eight Villages" feels like entering a flowing Miao painting. Sloped roofs, small blue tiles, stilted buildings—all dressed in the unified "Pingbian Miao style" attire, with totems and wooden lattice windows as their silent language. The most captivating is the blend of water and town: the Shepherd River winds like a jade ribbon through the 1,280-meter waterway, where covered bridges, gardens, and wetlands are arranged in harmony. I stroll along the riverbank, watching water splash over stone steps, reflecting the stilted buildings on both sides, blurring the line between whether the town is in the water or the water is in the town. At dusk, Miao Calendar Square gradually livens up. Bonfires are lit, lusheng pipes play, and Miao girls in festive attire join hands with visitors to form a circle, their simple dance steps full of infectious energy. The firelight brightens every smiling face and illuminates the totem pole carved with sun, moon, and stars in the center of the square. At this moment, there is no distinction between visitor and host, only the universal language of music and dance. As night deepens, I climb to a high spot to look back. The entire Miao village is brightly lit, with lights along the covered bridges and riverbanks outlining soft contours, like a star fallen into the valley. It does not recount the past like an ancient town but confidently showcases how a people infuse traditional wisdom into modern life—not as a museum-style preservation but as a living, breathing heritage. When leaving, I take away not just photos but the sound of the Shepherd River, the warmth of the bonfire, and a clear perception: true ethnic charm is not necessarily hidden behind ancient village gates; it can also bloom gracefully along the waterfront of a new town, waiting for every passerby to step through the door into a painting and turn around into a song.

➡Wujiazhai Zigzag Bridge➡ This steel bridge, designed by the French over a century ago and built by countless Chinese laborers, is entirely connected with steel plates, channel steel, angle steel, and rivets, weighing a total of 179.5 tons and standing 102 meters above the valley floor. Today, standing at the bottom of the valley and looking up at this Yunnan-Vietnam Railway Zigzag Bridge, I am filled with a sense of "man conquers nature" achievement and the boldness of "sending me soaring to the sky." However, due to the steep terrain, the construction conditions at the time were extremely harsh. Historical records show that about 800 Chinese laborers lost their lives during the construction, meaning that on average, every meter of track carries the lives of 12 laborers. As the saying goes, "One sleeper, one life; one rivet, one drop of blood." This bridge is regarded as a benchmark of world bridge engineering marvels, ranked alongside the Panama Canal and the Suez Canal as one of the "World's Three Great Engineering Projects," and is included in the "History of World Famous Bridges." Today, all the bridge components originally custom-made in France still faithfully perform their duties amid the towering mountains (although during special periods, some suggested dismantling the bridge and rebuilding it entirely with domestic materials [crying with laughter]), witnessing a century of glory, decline, and the vicissitudes of time. ​

From being the "resident photographer" of Yunshui Village to now traveling the world with my camera as an independent photographer 📷 After countless times shooting the mountain-view terraces and coffee bars in the village, I realized that the best photos aren’t perfectly posed shots but authentic moments. Photography is not just about recording; it’s about letting everyone see their unique beauty! It turns out that you don’t have to shoot the same old popular check-in spots to get great photos. The real skill is capturing a sense of story and vitality. Rather than chasing viral spots, I want to capture memories that belong to each person! Looking for: ✔️ Sisters who want photos with a sense of story, relaxation, and life ✔️ Socially anxious folks who hate “stiff posing” ✔️ People who want to turn everyday moments into movie stills In Leshan, a city full of everyday charm, we can: - Search for traces of time in old alleys - Feel the gentle breeze by the river - Experience slow living in ancient towns - Enjoy afternoon moments in coffee shops Every moment is unique and full of life. What I want to do is use my lens to capture the real you, not cookie-cutter templates.

Pingbian Dishui Miao Village is a hidden gem steeped in Miao ethnic charm in southern Yunnan. Named after "Dishui" (dripping water), it seems to carry the spirit of mountain springs, delicately unfolding the roots and soul of Miao culture. Stepping into the Miao Village, your eyes are met with orderly Miao-style architecture. Black-tiled wooden buildings are built along the mountainside, with carved doors and windows reflecting rustic craftsmanship. The Miao embroidery totems on the corridors and the ox horn decorations under the eaves all tell stories of the Miao people spanning thousands of years. Walking through, it feels like entering a moving Miao painting—perhaps you will encounter Miao girls wearing pleated skirts and silver headpieces, the crisp clinking of silver jewelry carried by the wind; or hear the melodious sounds of the lusheng, filled with the passion and boldness of the Miao people. The village’s scenery cleverly blends nature and culture, with babbling streams flowing through the town, just like its name "Dishui," nourishing this land. When night falls, lights illuminate the Miao Village, and the outlines of wooden buildings become clearer in the darkness. If you happen to visit during a festival, bonfires will be lit, and Miao sons and daughters will dance the lusheng dance around the fire. The joyful songs and laughter blend with the gleam of silver ornaments, creating a lively and warm atmosphere unique to the Miao Village. This place is not just a collection of buildings but a living heritage of Miao culture. From the indigo patterns of batik to exquisite embroidery stitches, from ancient legends to vibrant folk customs, every detail tells you: this is the most enchanting Miao culture of Pingbian, waiting for you to savor it carefully.

In the hustle and bustle of the city, are you often troubled by insomnia, chased by stress, and longing for a pure place to have a good sleep? Then join me this weekend to head to the mountains and forests for a healing journey of "sleeping well"! Destination Selection: Unlocking the Deep Mountain Sleep Code Pingbian Dawei Mountain Forest Park: Deep Sleep in a Forest Oxygen Bar This place has a forest coverage rate of over 90%, with an extremely high concentration of negative oxygen ions per cubic meter of air, like a natural large oxygen bar. During the day, wandering through the dense forest and breathing fresh, pure air, fatigue and anxiety seem to be absorbed away bit by bit by the forest; at night, lying in bed at Dawei Mountain Jinjiang Resort Hotel or Muyanghe Shanshui Resort Hotel, listening to the gentle wind outside the window and occasional insect chirps, like a lullaby played by nature, you will unknowingly fall into a sweet dream. The next morning, you naturally wake up to the birdsong, feeling refreshed and energized, as if every cell in your body is full of vitality. Huolu Valley: A Quiet Countryside Home Amidst Ten Thousand Acres of Forest Hidden in 15,000 acres of forest, this national AAA-level scenic area features mountains, hills, ravines, and streams crisscrossing. Here, you can listen to the pine waves in the morning and watch the sunset glow in the evening. The tranquil atmosphere allows you to completely relax. The rooms in the scenic area's homestays offer views full of greenery outside the window. At night, you fall asleep accompanied by the unique quietness of the forest, free from city traffic noise and light pollution, only pure tranquility. You can also taste local organic countryside delicacies, such as slow-cooked chicken with mushrooms over a wood fire, healing you from the tip of your tongue to your body and mind. Pre-Trip Preparation: Sleep Gear Checklist Sleep Gear - Sleeping Bag: Choose according to the season and mountain temperature. Down sleeping bags are recommended for their light weight and strong warmth. For higher altitude, colder mountains, choose a down sleeping bag with 1500-2000g fill power and a comfort temperature range of -5℃ to 5℃; for summer trips to ordinary mountains, 800-1000g fill power with a comfort range of 5℃ to 15℃ is sufficient. Brands like Black Ice and NuoKe have good reputations. - Moisture-Proof Mat: Isolates ground moisture to ensure sleep comfort. Among physical moisture-proof mats, the egg crate mat is a good choice, with different materials on each side: the black side is made of ixpe eco-friendly material, comfortable and resilient, while the silver aluminum film side blocks moisture; inflatable sleeping mats are softer and easy to pack, such as KingCamp’s self-inflating sleeping mat, which is very convenient to use. - Self-Inflating Pillow: Neck support is important when sleeping outdoors. The self-inflating pillow contains sponge filling; just unfold and open the valve, the sponge expands to automatically inflate about 80%, then simply blow it up fully to provide just the right support for your neck, helping you sleep soundly until morning. Other Items - Eye Mask and Earplugs: Block light and possible noise disturbances to create a dark and quiet sleeping environment. Choose eye masks with good light blocking, such as Nanjiiren’s silk eye mask, soft and skin-friendly; earplugs recommended are 3M noise reduction earplugs with excellent noise cancelling. - Comfortable Clothing: Mountain temperatures vary greatly between day and night, so bring a warm jacket like a lightweight down jacket; choose loose, breathable cotton pajamas to allow your body to breathe freely during sleep. Mountain Sleep Tips: Sleep with High Quality - Maintain a Regular Schedule: Even in the mountains, try to stick to your usual bedtime and wake-up time. Don’t stay up late just because the environment is relaxing. For example, if you usually sleep at 11 pm, try to sleep around the same time on the weekend in the mountains to keep your biological clock stable, making it easier to fall asleep and maintain good sleep quality. - Relax Before Sleep: Take a walk in the mountains before bed, do some deep breathing, and focus your attention on the natural environment around you; you can also do simple stretches to relax your muscles, helping your body and mind unwind from daytime activities and prepare for sleep. - Avoid Stimulants: Don’t eat too much greasy or spicy food for dinner, and avoid caffeine-containing drinks like coffee and tea to prevent stomach discomfort or nervous excitement that could affect sleep. From the city to the mountains, this is not just a simple weekend trip, but a wonderful journey to find inner peace and restore sleep. I hope you can sleep a long-awaited good sleep under the starry sky in the mountains, accompanied by the natural white noise, and awaken a brand-new you.
