Enter the Jinkouhe Grand Canyon, the only canyon in China that foreigners are not allowed to enter

[Star] The Jinkou River Grand Canyon was rated as one of the "most beautiful canyons in China" by National Geographic. It is the only water highway in Sichuan. So far, foreigners are still prohibited from entering. It is located at the junction of Leshan City, Ya'an City and Liangshan Prefecture. [Tulip][Tulip]We drove from Hanyuan to Leshan and passed this most beautiful road. [Tulip][Tulip][Tulip]On the way, you will pass Yunduanrenjia Yisheng Village, the first village in the canyon. This village was moved down from the top of a cliff. Now there are many farmhouses where you can stay and eat. The villagers say that there are many people in summer. Down the river is the emerald green Dadu River, and the mountains are lush and green. How can it not be beautiful? [○][○][○]There is a Railways Museum in the village. It is free and anyone with a mainland China ID card can enter. It tells the story of the railway troops from their establishment to their disappearance from history after the founding of the People's Republic of China. It also shows pictures of the railway troops who braved difficulties and obstacles and participated in the construction of national railway trunk lines such as the Qinghai-Tibet Railway and the Chengdu-Kunming Railway. The design is very immersive and makes one feel respect for the soldiers, especially this section of the Chengdu-Kunming Railway. More than 2,100 soldiers gave their lives to build this difficult route with many tunnels! [RedHeart][RedHeart][RedHeart]Until now, there is still a green train No. 5619 passing through here every day, which is convenient for people in the mountains. You can get on the train at Guancunba Station, the only railway station built in a tunnel in my country. The minimum fare is two yuan. If you have time, you can experience it. Starting from Hanyuan, you can enjoy the scenery on both sides of the Dadu River passing through the canyon. Salute to the Railway Troops! [!][!][!]Continue forward and you will see the Tongxin Bridge, which connects the Yi and Han peoples of Liangshan. On the opposite mountain is the Yi village. From the bridge you can see the spectacular water highway, which is very photogenic! [OrangeHeart][OrangeHeart][OrangeHeart]A section of the water highway in the canyon has recently been broken and is under repair. We went down the mountain to the entrance of the canyon. According to the staff, it will be repaired by May next year. By then, you can take a cruise to enjoy the scenery of the Dadu River Canyon, or you can drive in for free. The experience should be better! [!][!][!]The recently popular Gulu Village is also here. It is known as the "Village on the Cliff of China". Hiking enthusiasts can reach it by following the "One Line Sky" navigation. We didn't go there because we were short of time, but we must go there again if we have the chance! If you go to Leshan or Hanyuan, it is recommended to visit this free and spectacular Grand Canyon, you will not be disappointed!
