The sapphire in the barren land - Longnan Wen County Tianchi🦋. 🌍Location: Wen County, Longnan City 🚘Transportation: Self-driving 🅿️Parking: 30 yuan for parking at the scenic spot 🎫Ticket: 60 yuan for a ticket plus a sightseeing car Location: Tianchi National Forest Park in Wen County, Longnan, Gansu. The place is a bit remote. (Special preferential policies must be mentioned here, that is, if you have accommodation records in Tianshui Maiji District and Longnan City, you can get free admission! Directly drive to the destination Longnan City, planning to arrive around 12:30 at night. There are not many cars along the way, the highway is very good to drive, and after reaching Longnan City, stayed in a city hotel for one night, with accommodation costs about 100 to 150 per person like in a Ji Hotel. Early in the morning, I strolled around Longnan City and had breakfast. This place is famous for its Sichuan peppercorns, and the food prices are also very low. A steamed bun as big as my face only costs one yuan, and buns only 1.5 yuan, a serving of hot rice noodles is 4 yuan. The biggest difference from Hanzhong hot rice noodles is that the rice noodles here have a strong flavor of Sichuan peppercorns, and there are shredded potatoes as a side dish, which is delicious! After the meal, directly navigate to Wen County Tianchi, it takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes to reach the entrance of the scenic area. You need to park at the main entrance, buy tickets for the entrance and the scenic shuttle bus, 30 yuan each, 60 yuan for an adult including both the entrance ticket and the bus ticket. It takes about 10 minutes to drive up the mountain to reach the hiking entrance, and about 10 minutes of walking to reach the edge of Tianchi. When we went there, the weather was a bit overcast, and the color of Tianchi was darker, but it's really rare to have such a beautiful scene on this barren land. I thought Jiuzhaigou was beautiful until I went to Wen County Tianchi! It is said that 'In heaven is the Queen Mother's Yaochi, on earth is Wen County's Tianchi,' located in Wen County, Longnan, Gansu, the Tianchi is like a "sapphire" nestled between towering mountains, with green trees and the azure lake water reflecting each other, walking in the scenery, as if traveling in a painting. Location: Tianchi National Forest Park in Wen County, Longnan, Gansu. The place is a bit remote. 'Had I known about Longnan, why would I need to go to the south of the Yangtze River?' I believe that Tianchi on a sunny day will be even more beautiful than what I saw this time. See you next time if fate allows!
