Yamugou is located in Jiangkou County, Tongren City, Guizhou Province, a hidden paradise in Guizhou

Yamugou is located in Jiangkou County, Tongren City, Guizhou Province, with a total length of 50 kilometers. It has been known as "the first gully in Guizhou" since ancient times. Yamugou originates from "the top of Wuling" Fanjing Mountain, one of the eight major water systems of Fanjing Mountain, and is the authentic "famous mountain and holy water". According to records, Yamugou was known as "Ghost Valley" and "Hidden Dragon Valley" before the Tang Dynasty. Later, a divine tree grew in the valley, which looked like stone and wood, was transparent all over, had a strange fragrance, could drive away evil spirits and cure diseases, and eating its fruit could make couples who had not given birth for many years have children. This attracted countless local people to worship it, and it was named "Yamu", which means "tree god" in ancient Tujia language, hence the name "Yamugou", which has been used ever since. 1. Natural scenery: There are many beautiful natural landscapes in Yamugou, such as colorful caves, Milky Way waterfalls, and Dragon Cave. The most distinctive is the Yamu waterfall, which is 20 meters high and 30 meters wide. The waterfall falls straight down, like a silver ribbon hanging in the air, very spectacular. 2. Primitive forest: Yamugou preserves the original natural ecology, with a forest coverage rate of up to 97%. Tourists can feel the freshness and tranquility of nature here. 3. Ethnic customs: Yamugou is inhabited by ethnic minorities such as the Tujia, and tourists can experience rich ethnic culture and folk customs. 1. Morning: Arrive at Yamugou Scenic Area, take a sightseeing car into the scenic area, and enjoy the natural scenery along the way. After arriving at the central square, visit the colorful cave and feel the magic of nature. 2. Noon: Taste local specialties in the restaurant in the scenic area, such as sour soup fish, wild vegetables, etc. 3. Afternoon: Visit attractions such as the Milky Way Waterfall and Dragon Cave, and feel the unique charm of Yamugou. 4. Evening: Take a sightseeing car back to the entrance of the scenic area and end the happy journey of Yamugou. Yamugou is a place where people linger. Its natural scenery and ethnic customs have left a deep impression on me. Here, I feel the magic of nature and the beauty of humans living in harmony with nature. The only shortcoming is that the facilities in the scenic area need to be improved, and the tourist guide is not clear enough. I hope that the scenic area can improve in this area and provide tourists with a better experience.
