Visiting Jianmen Pass in summer, I still remember the eternal painting drawn by the pass city and the bright moon

The Jianmen Pass Scenic Area in Jiange County, Guangyuan City, Sichuan Province is an impressive A-level scenic spot that we recommend our friends to visit during the Dragon Boat Festival and before the summer vacation. We arrived here on a cicada-filled, bird-singing afternoon in midsummer, where Jianmen Pass greeted us with lush forests and sheer cliffs. Below, I'll pick out two memories to share with friends and revisit the journey to Jianmen Pass. ❶Naoyao Path & Bird Path You can take a cable car up the mountain in Jianmen Pass Scenic Area, but what caught our eye were two 'sheep intestine trails'. To let tourists experience the 'difficulty of Shu Road', the scenic area has set up two mountain trails with a higher difficulty level. The Naoyao Path is named after Li Bai's 'The Difficulty of Shu Road', where 'monkeys moan in despair, wishing to climb but finding no support'. It is a zigzag mountain path, only 446 meters long, but situated between nearly vertical cliffs. The path is narrow, allowing only one person to pass, and there are no protective railings along the entire route, so you need to make a reservation in advance and take protective measures to climb. We chose the Bird Path at the other end, which is also a narrow mountain path, but with railings. The Bird Path does not require protective measures, and you can walk and enjoy the view more freely, but you also need to pay attention to safety. ❷The Eternal Painting Created by the Pass City and the Bright Moon After the Bird Path, we walked down the mountain, admiring the rugged mountain scenery, passing through the unique 'One Line Sky', and through the Jianmen Pass Tower, which is 'impassable by any man', and stayed at an inn near the tower. That night, we came to the front of the tower again, surrounded by summer fireflies, and by chance saw the moon and the tower in the same frame. The twinkling fireflies made the scene both illusory and real, while the clarity of the moon and the vicissitudes of the city became an eternal memory. 📌Practical Tips for Self-Driving Travel 🎫Ticket: 100 yuan/person.
