The only bankrupt 5A scenic spot in China? Tongren Grand Canyon is a master of "hiding"!

Family! When I saw the term "bankrupt 5A scenic spot," my pupils literally shook👀 After checking for a long time, I found out it was actually the fault of Luoyang Longtan Grand Canyon, but the misunderstood Tongren Grand Canyon is actually a treasure! This reverse recommendation must be shared, here’s a personally tested, fun, and reliable guide～

🏞️ Don’t be fooled by the name! This is Earth’s "divine fold"

Honestly, Tongren Grand Canyon’s beauty fully deserves the 5A rating! The 300-meter vertical cliff looks like it was split by a god, with emerald-colored deep pools hidden at the valley bottom. Walking on the plank road, even the air tastes sweet, and the abundance of negative oxygen ions makes your lungs feel like they’re "bathing"🌬️ The best part is it’s not crowded; compared to the packed popular spots, here you can finally take photos without dodging people!

Must-visit spots ranked by wow factor:

- Double Rainbow Waterfall Group: After rain, from 10 AM to 2 PM, you’re very likely to see a double rainbow🌈 The mist cools your face, and every snap is wallpaper-worthy

- One Line Sky: The narrowest part fits only one person, and the noon sunlight shines through like a "light saber," with vines hanging down giving a strong "Avatar" vibe

- Natural Bridge and Flat Lake Boat Tour: An 80 yuan boat ticket for a 1-hour ride, watching the peaks on both sides slowly recede, wild mandarin ducks swimming in the water—this is truly "traveling inside a painting"✨

🚨 Thrill seekers, come fast! Three heart-pounding activities

Brave ones, rush to these three projects for an adrenaline rush to the max👇

1. 5D Glass Plank Road: A 10-meter cantilever into the canyon, with a raging dark river right below. Every step shakes you, but the photo rate is 200%📸 Hold your phone tight!

2. High-altitude Zipline: 200 meters descending at 60 km/h, flying through the sea of clouds and overlooking the abyss, all your worries vanish instantly

3. Cliff Adventure Plank Road: An 800-meter cliff-hugging suspended walkway, with a steep cliff on one side and the canyon on the other. If you’re timid, bring a companion

🚌 Babysitter-level transportation & ticket guide (pitfall avoidance)

- Transportation: Self-drive navigation to "Tongren Grand Canyon Scenic Area." Parking is free but 3 km away; the scenic area provides free shuttle buses🚌 From Tongren city, a direct bus takes 1.5 hours. The mountain road is winding, so prepare motion sickness medicine before boarding.

- Tickets: Buying online for 100 yuan is cheaper than 120 yuan on-site! Note it’s a private enterprise and does not participate in Guizhou state scenic area discounts. Even free admission groups must buy 20 yuan insurance⚠️

- Best time: April to October is best. June to August is perfect for summer cooling, September to October offers colorful forests with fewer people, and after rain with clear skies, rainbows are easier to see～

🍜 Don’t miss the treasure food at the scenic area entrance!

When tired, head straight to the "Canyon Family" at the exit. Miao-style sour soup fish is sour, spicy, and delicious. The soup made from wild river fish poured over glutinous rice can be eaten three bowls🍚 Also try smoked bacon fried with fern cake, with a strong smoky aroma. At about 50 yuan per person, it’s way more reasonable than the overpriced fast food inside the scenic area!

💡 Pitfall avoidance & money-saving tips (pay attention!)

1. Wear bright colors! Red and orange stand out beautifully against the green canyon in photos

2. Bring two pairs of non-slip shoes! The plank road is very slippery when wet; shoe covers aren’t as good as wearing sneakers directly

3. Enter before 8 AM! Avoid tour groups and get good lighting for photos

4. Definitely buy a boat ticket! Walking one way is tiring; the scenery from the boat is completely different

5. Bring a power bank + cash! Signal at the valley bottom is unstable, so payment depends on luck

📝 One-day tour route reference

Glass Plank Road → Adventure Plank Road → Jump Horse Pavilion → Xiaolongtan Waterfall → Natural Bridge Flat Lake Boat Tour (return before 4 PM to avoid rushing)

If you have more time, combine with Fanjing Mountain for a 2-day tour: day one for canyon fun, day two for climbing Fanjing Mountain, making your Guizhou trip fully packed!

Although often misunderstood as "bankrupt," the beauty of Tongren Grand Canyon really can’t be hidden🌟 Few people, beautiful scenery, and thrilling experiences—rush there before it becomes super popular, or next time you might have to queue!
