Deanich Inn (located in the circle). The Deanich Inn is located in a beautiful valley, more than an hour’s drive from Inverness – Scotland. Deanich is surrounded by mountains and clouds. It can be said that this inn is almost isolated from the outside world. There is only one road leading to it and the nearest village is also 19km away. The inn is part of the 23,000-acre Alladale Wilderness Reserve (more than 9,000 hectares), which is sure to leave you in awe of its majestic natural surroundings. This is a place where you can see more deer than people. You will enjoy the fresh air, surrounded by green grass, majestic mountains and sparkling streams crossing the beautiful valley. The amazing scenery of the inn. Currently, the inn can only accommodate up to 18 people for 5 bedrooms. Most of the space in the inn is an open space to help visitors feel comfortable and immersed in nature. “Deanich is not an ordinary inn.

As a Xiaobai-level “alise friend”, I finally completed the third trip across the Qinling Mountains in Xi’an. On this trip to the Qinling Mountains, we spent 10 hours walking through the deep mountains of the Qinling Mountains. We encountered the sea of ​​flowers and waterfalls, as well as forests and ancient temples. The scenery was primitive and shocking. If it is you, would you like to take a trip? First release the whole route: Xi’an Shangwang Village-Miyan Temple-Huangyugou-Huangyugou Reservoir-Huangyu Temple Village (Cuiwei Palace Site)-Reclining Buddha Temple-Jingye Temple-Fengyukou- Xi’an This is a classic Qinling crossing route in Xi’an. The total distance is about 13 kilometers, and the degree of difficulty is not particularly large. Because there are a lot of people who have passed by, there are ribbons left by various outdoor climbing clubs along the way, which have just become road signs, so as long as you have a certain physical strength and outdoor foundation, you should be able to complete the crossing. This route has both beautiful natural scenery and profound cultural heritage, so it is worth a special trip! The first section: Shangwang Village-Huangyusi Village The whole journey is 7 kilometers, with beautiful scenery along the way. A Jinsha River has always been with us, and has formed large and small pools and waterfalls. Large areas of purple pansy, yellow pansy, and Tangdi flowers bloom in the valley, making me really feel the soft and beautiful side of the Da Qinling. It is worth noting that if you have poor physical strength and don’t want to take the complete route, coming to this Huangyugou to stop and go is also a good leisure experience. My friend and I met at Weiqunan Station on Metro Line 2 early in the morning and took bus 334 to Shangwang Village at 8:30. Passing through Shangwang Village, before entering Huangyugou, I encountered the first ancient temple-Miyan Temple. The Miyan Temple has a long history, but the temple I see today was rebuilt in the 1980s. Perhaps because it was too early, the temple did not open the door, so I took a picture from a distance and moved on. After passing the Miyan Temple, you will enter the Huangyugou. One kilometer ahead, you can see the Huangyugou Reservoir as if a piece of emerald embedded in the mountains. After passing the reservoir, the mountaineering trip officially began. The first 5 kilometers of this route are relatively smooth, with little elevation, and always walk along the mountain valley road. The Jinsha River accompanies us all the way, forming the beautiful scenery of waterfalls and lakes. I think coming here in summer will definitely be very cool! The valley is also full of various mountain flowers, among which purple pansy, yellow pansy, and tangy’s flowers are the most. Accompanied by streams and crossing flower valleys, such spring scenery of Qinling Mountains is truly unforgettable for us. The last 2 kilometers began to rise, and the slope reached more than 45 degrees. After walking a few steps, we were out of breath, gritted our teeth all the way, and finally turned around and we climbed onto a mountain platform. This is where the Huangyu Temple Cuiwei Palace site is located! The second section: 10,000 mu of azalea plum blossom sea in Huangyusi Village Huangyusi Village is located on a hilltop platform of Cuiwei Mountain in Qinling Mountains at 1,200 meters above sea level. In the early Tang Dynasty, this was the leisure summer palace of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin-Cuiwei Palace. The hilltop platform we saw when we climbed up from Huangyugou (pictured below) is said to be the site of the ruins of several main halls of Cuiwei Palace. Walking into the village, we also met the most tourists on this journey. Because Huangyusi Village can be reached directly by car by car, you can drive up the mountain along a dirt road called “Dahaogou” on the east side of the mountain 3 kilometers into Fengyukou. Right now is the time when the Baijuan plum blossoms. Huangyusi Village is the largest and densest area of ​​Baijuan plum in the Qinling Mountains of Xi’an, so it attracts a large number of tourists to come to enjoy the flowers. Regarding the specific content of Baijuan Plum in Huangyusi Village, you can refer to my last travel note, and I won’t repeat it here.Beautiful!Xi’an’s Qinling Baijuan plum resembles a “sea of ​​snow”, and you can drive straight to the top of the mountain. It’s just right to go now The third section: Huangyusi Village-Reclining Buddha Temple-Jingye Temple Crossing the sea of ​​white cuckoo plum blossoms, we headed all the way towards the Reclining Buddha Temple and opened the famous “Three Temples Linking”. This section of the road is about 6 kilometers, and the whole journey is downwards, so the overall journey is relatively easy. However, there are gravel in some sections along the way, so hiking shoes are a must. From Huangyusi Village to Wat Pho Temple, it takes about 3 kilometers and takes 1 hour. The Reclining Buddha Temple is located on the top of Qingshan Hua, and is also a thousand-year-old temple with a long history. Its most magical location is that there is a reclining Buddha that is not known when it was excavated. This reclining Buddha is 11.6 meters in length and is known as one of the “Four Large Indoor Stone Buddhas in China”. Regarding the specific content of Wat Pho, you can read my other tourist article:The thousand-year-old temple in the Qinling Mountains of Xi’an, on the top of the cliff at an altitude of 1,300 meters, the five-story building is too magnificent There is a farmhouse below the Reclining Buddha Temple. There are two fork roads beside the farmhouse. One road goes to Qinghua Mountain and the other goes to Jingye Temple. Both routes can go down the mountain, we chose the latter. It is about 3 kilometers from Wat Pho to Jingye Temple and it takes 1 hour. Walking in the depths of the dense forest, we feel the beauty of Qinling’s spring greenery. Jingye Temple is the ancestor of Buddhism Law School, with a profound background. Friends who pay attention to me will find that I have visited Jingye Temple many times and recorded the cultural landscape of this thousand-year-old temple. But this is the first time I have come here, and it feels very different. When I arrived at Jingye Temple, it was already 6 o’clock in the afternoon. It takes half an hour to walk from the Jingye Temple to the bottom of the mountain, so I hurriedly bid farewell to it without taking a closer look. Before leaving, I was standing on the platform in front of the ancient temple and took a bird’s-eye view of Qinling 210 National Highway. You see, the Qinling Mountains at this time are already green. We started to enter the mountain from Huangyugou at 9 in the morning and left Jingye Temple at 6:30 in the evening. We walked violently in the Qinling Mountains for 10 hours. Although we were tired, we were full of gains. Encountered too many beautiful scenery, this trip is also considered to be a complete one. Finally, I would like to talk about useful travel information, friends who want to come can refer to: 1. From Xi’an to Shangwang Village, take bus 332/334 from Weiqunan Station of Metro Line 2 and get off at “Shangwang Village”. 2. Back to Xi’an from Jingye Temple, it takes half an hour to walk from Jingye Temple to Fengyukou 1km. From Fengyukou, take No. 735 to Huanshan Road, transfer to No. 332/334, and arrive at Weiqunan Station.
