Secret Realm of the Cool City! An Amazing Journey to Minghu's 'One Line Sky'

'I see the mountains as charming, and I guess the mountains see me the same way,' the gifts of nature are always irresistible. When mentioning 'One Line Sky,' people might think of Huashan, Huangshan, Emei Mountain, Jianglang Mountain, and other places. However, in the city of Liupanshui, the Cool City of China, there is also a mysterious forest hidden within the Minghu National Wetland Park's 'One Line Sky.'

'One Line Sky,' as one of the water sources of Minghu Wetland, boasts unique natural scenery. The scenic area is about 1.5 kilometers long, with connected waterfalls and pools, winding streams like a swimming dragon, and the combination of bright and dark currents in the valley stone crevices together outline the peculiar canyon landscape.

📝Notes:
❶ The journey is long, and some sections are relatively steep. It is recommended to wear comfortable clothes and shoes for climbing.
❷ Prepare some dry food and water to replenish energy during the climb. It takes about an hour to reach the Xiyun Valley Leisure Inn, where only hot pot and barbecue are available. The variety of drinks and ice cream is limited, and no snacks are sold.
❸ Use the restroom in advance, as there is only one restroom at the inn along the way.
❹ The road before reaching the inn is relatively smooth, and the steepest section is from the inn's Jiyuan Pool upwards. If you are not physically fit, it is recommended to return from the inn's rest area.
❺ During peak season, there are sightseeing cars at the end, costing 10 yuan per person; during the off-season, there will also be drivers at the exit, charging 10 yuan per person to the wetland park exit, so there is no need to worry about the return trip.

There are roads before and after the mountain, and you are free whether there is wind or not. If you are in the city and long to breathe freely in a place without a ceiling, Minghu Wetland Park's One Line Sky is undoubtedly an excellent choice!
