Wenlan Bridge, located on the Gongshui River in Xuan'en County, Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Hubei Province, is a unique antique wind and rain bridge. The bridge is 80 meters long, 10 meters wide, and about 26 meters high. It has five spans and four spans. The lower part of the bridge is a steel-concrete structure, and the upper part is a full wooden structure. It adopts the architectural style of combining the Dong ethnic group's flower bridge and drum tower and the Tujia ethnic group's pavilion bridge. The 22 wooden rafts use the unique through-beam structure in southern China, the beam-column system connected by mortise and tenon rivets, the pavilion eaves are all flying corner brackets, and the ridge tiles are decorated with simple decorations, showing the beauty of ethnic architecture. Outside the brick and stone gatehouses on the north and south sides of the bridge head, there are a pair of sitting kirin and walking unicorn, respectively, which means "good weather and good harvest". This bridge is not only a major transportation route, but also a symbol of culture. It has witnessed the historical changes of Xuanen and carries the rich local ethnic cultural connotations. During the day, the bridge and the scenery on both sides of the Gongshui River complement each other, creating an elegant and grand atmosphere; at night, the neon lights are on and reflected in the river, like a dreamlike painting, which together with the surrounding musical fountains and the night view of Gongshui River constitute Xuanen's unique urban landscape.Xuan'en · 377m from downtown

Qiyue Mountain is a mountain grassland in southern China, located in the west of Lichuan City. The mountaintop is generally flat, with seven unique peaks—Heidabao, Kanjin Dabao, Luojia Dabao, Dengjia Dabao, Wanjia Dabao, Dabao, and Pengjia Dabao—lined up in a row, resembling seven shining stars, which is why the ancients also called it Qiyao Mountain. Qiyue Mountain resembles a towering wall stretching across the western sky, serving as a major barrier and strategic military location between the ancient regions of Jingchu and Bashu. Seven passes were once established on the mountain. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Liu Taicang, a leader of the Thirteen Families of Kuidong (remnants of Li Zicheng's forces), set up camp on the mountain and held it for nine years. In 1934, the Red Third Army also camped here, defeating the enemy forces that came to encircle and suppress them multiple times. Qiyue Mountain has boundless grasslands, a vast sea of clouds, and beautiful scenery, with multiple horse-riding tracks, camping villages, barbecue gardens, leisure resorts, hotels, and more. In summer, the grass is lush and green, with herds of cattle and sheep. There are currently three horse-riding tracks, offering a rare grassland view for people in the south. In winter, it is covered in white snow with frost-covered trees, presenting a scene typical of the north. It is an ideal destination for vacations, summer retreats, and leisure.Lichuan · 27.7 km from downtown

This down-to-earth experience recreates traditional Tujia customs such as the daughter's festival, the weeping wedding ceremony, and the hand-waving dance. Performers invite tourists to dance and interact, creating a highly engaging experience. Combined with the nighttime scenery of the stilted houses and the ambiance created by the red lanterns, the performance offers excellent value for money. The activities are lighthearted and lively, suitable for all ages, and perfect for family outings.

It was raining, and the dancers on the shore were working very hard, performing well in their transparent raincoats. However, the tour guide on the boat was extremely inadequate in handling the emergency. The activity was supposed to last over forty minutes, but at the beginning, the boat broke down and drifted downstream for more than ten minutes without power, causing everyone to miss the earlier performances. Most of the tourists on the boat were dissatisfied. To make matters worse, the boats performing later were in poor positions, and most tourists couldn't see them either. But the tour guide on the boat only said he hoped everyone would understand. How can anyone understand that?

Qiyue Mountain is a mountainous grassland in southern China, located in the west of Lichuan City, Hubei Province, bordering Chongqing Shizhu and Wanzhou to the west, only 30 kilometers away from Lichuan City, and National Highway 318 passes through the scenic area. The top of the mountain is basically flat, with seven unique hills, including Heidabao, Kanjindabao, Luojiadabao, Dengjiadabao, Wanjiadabao, Dabao, and Pengjiadabao, spreading out like seven stars, so the ancients also called it Qiyao Mountain, now known as Qiyue Mountain. Qiyue Mountain is like a towering wall stretching across the west sky, becoming a major barrier and military stronghold between Jingchu and Bashu in ancient times.

It is located on the bank of Gongshui River in Xuanen City. The building is very unique. If you want to enter the building, you need to buy a ticket (full ticket is 50 yuan), but there are stone steps on both sides of the building. You can walk around the stone steps to visit its exterior, which is free. There is also a large Xinglong Old Street next to it, with restaurants. In addition, the tourist center and hotel are under construction. It is also beautiful to take night photos on the other side of the river after the lights are turned on after dark.

We arrived at Wujiatang Tea Garden at 5 pm. Luckily, the sun was still out, so we could take some beautiful photos. The experience was comparable to that of the Earth Core Valley. The tea trees on the entire mountain were intertwined, a vibrant green that was exceptionally pleasing to the eye. The scenery was different from that of Anji White Tea Garden. Each had its own unique charm.

The best scenic spot in Enshi is not only free, but also because of the rich and colorful scenery, which combines Qingjiang water, mountains, caves, grasslands, and primitive farming tribes. It is quite tiring to cross the whole journey, so it is recommended to take the essence section. From Longmen Inn, under the Love Valley, take a look at Dudu Village, then go to see the Yinhe Cave and the ancient riverbed first, then return by the original route, walk through Sanlongmen, Erlongmen, Dalongmen to the grassland, and return to Longmen Inn after seeing the Haohan Slope. This is enough for most of the day. Cross the whole journey, Jingzhao Villa, Black Hole, Village, Ancient Riverbed, Yinhe Cave, Dudu Village, Sanlongmen, Erlongmen, Dalongmen, Grassland, Haohan Slope, Bamboo Forest, Yixiantian, and come out of the village. Be sure to walk on a sunny day, bring knee pads, trekking poles, and outdoor hiking shoes. It takes about 8 hours. It is recommended to download the GPS route with 2 road apps and look at the colorful ribbon road signs on the road.

You can visit the Enshi Family Miao Autonomous Prefecture Museum by swiping your ID card after making an appointment. The museum has three basic displays: "Wuling Footnotes", "Enshi Memory" and "Ecological Enshi". They respectively reflect Ba culture, cliff burial culture, chieftain culture, national folk culture and red revolutionary culture. Visit the 2nd and 3rd floors one by one to learn about people's production and living conditions and social outlook in various historical periods. Learned that from the Opium War to the founding of New China, the Enshi area was rich in humanities and talents. I saw the precious natural resources and product resources in Enshi area.

There are places to eat, drink and play nearby, which are especially popular with both adults and children. The environment in the National Garden community in the ancient city is elegant, and the commercial products in the ancient city are of good quality and low price. From a distance, it has the flavor of an ancient city!
