Avoid the crowd and rush, a line of niche attractions in Tengchong | More suitable for self-driving

This is my second time to Tengchong Everyone knows that Tengchong's volcanoes and hot springs are the most famous In addition to this, Tengchong also has many niche places Let me introduce these three places, not far apart and more suitable for self-driving🚗 ✅Navigate to Heiyu River, free Heiyu River is located in the Heiyu River Canyon of Tengchong County Volcano Park. It is an underground dark river. It is a river where the underground water flows out of the ground due to the magma blocking the underground river under the action of the lava flow of Tengchong Volcano. What we see is this naturally formed, uncarved river. In fact, the locals call this place Longchuan River. The black volcanic rocks and green stream are very suitable for taking pictures. Gradually, this place has also become a popular check-in point. There are no special signs. When you see a wooden bridge on the side of the road, you have arrived. The black stones are bumpy and very slippery, so it is not recommended to wear high heels. ✅Wild Boar Jing Bridge, free This is even more niche. The process of going there is a bit difficult. You need to walk a long country road to get there. There are very few people here. The Wild Boar Jing wooden cantilever bridge is right on the Longchuan River. The special thing about the Wild Boar Jing Bridge is that the main material is Ilex wood, which is a very strong and decay-resistant wood. The bridge is fixed with round logs, step support, and iron chain pull. It is the most representative ancient gallery bridge in Tengchong. ✅Columnar Joint (Observation Deck), free There is an observation deck on M74 County Road, where you can see a large "columnar joint" standing on the opposite mountain wall. This is a columnar crystal formed after the magma that the volcano erupted and not exposed to the surface cooled. It is called "columnar joint" in geology, and the locals vividly call it "God's Pillar". The first sight is very shocking, and it is also the first time I have seen it. It is very magnificent and I have to admire the magical creation of nature. If you like to visit niche attractions, you might as well go and see these places. The magic of nature, the wisdom of ancient people, every trip should be rewarding~
