Huaxi Yelang Valley Photos: Trip Moments
The travel to Guiyang is heart-shaking with its giant array of bizarre rocks and the mystery of rugged stones and broken walls🗿 Take note: This is the reason I came to Guiyang. In fact, before this trip, the reason why I chose Guiyang, apart from the cuisine, was that Yelang Valley really was a place I longed to visit, to experience the shock. So, the next morning, the first stop we made was to Yelang Valley. ————————— Name: Huaxi Yelang Valley Address: Intersection of Siyang Road and Huayan Road, Huaxi District, Guiyang City, Guizhou Province Open: 08:30-19:00, no entry after 18:00 Ticket: 20 yuan ————————— 🗿 Walking into Yelang Valley, I originally thought it was an ancient village with some folk characteristics and rugged stone statues, but as I walked further in, passing through the winding paths and into the suddenly clear valley beside the mountains, my goodness! It was stunning, so shocking! 🌟 Shocking Stepping into Yelang Valley, the first sight is shocking. Walking down the stone steps into the valley, surrounded by mountains, stand the astonishing stone statues. Walking among them, every direction offers a finely carved, shocking scene, and the area is vast, visually magnificent, breathtaking. 🌟 Bizarre The stone statues have a bizarre tribal texture, as if they have been gone for many years. The bizarre totem-like images have an indescribable sense of wonder. Regarding these bizarre stone statues, I can't say what they mean, I only know that their strangeness is fascinating. 🌟 Mysterious This place seems like an ancient, lost mysterious tribe. A winding river stretches across the mysterious valley, as if it's a long-standing relic of civilization. Standing in this valley, looking up, it feels like being transported to a place never reached before. 🌟 Artistic Rugged paths, city walls, castles, stone bridges, this is a natural open-air art gallery, where each stone sculpture is exquisitely detailed and unique. The so-called 'Yelang Valley' is the Yelang imagined by artists, a creation of twenty years, presented before the world. 🗿 This is undoubtedly one of the most impressive attractions I have visited recently. Laughter, anger, eeriness, horror, all kinds of stone statues converge in this mysterious world, making it a great photo spot. The ticket is also cheap, worth a visit, and makes the trip worthwhile.fane_940514
Why not take a spontaneous trip?Look here if you've heard of the story of 'Yelang thinks too highly of itself'! 🌈 The ancient Yelang Kingdom, which emerged during the Qin and Han Dynasties over two thousand years ago, was as famous as the ancient Loulan and Quelan Kingdoms, and was renowned all over the world at that time. 🌈 This ecological garden, which combines mountains, water, forests, caves and other natural landscapes, and includes cultural landscapes such as 'ancient barracks', 'bird-loving garden', and 'slate houses', is located in the small canyon at the foot of Doupeng Mountain in Huaxi University Town, Guian New District. It was completed by Song Peilun, a famous painter in Guiyang, with unique conception and creativity. 📍Location: Yelang Valley Karst Ecological Park, Huaxi District, Guiyang City, Guizhou Province 🚕Transportation: It is recommended to drive there, which is more convenient. 💡Practical tips: The whole scenic area is not large, mainly built around a river with numerous stone statues on both sides. It takes about 2 hours to visit. There are not many places to eat around, so it is recommended to bring some snacks.DAVID RHODES22
Come to Guiyang | Worth exploring the mysterious ancient country!📍Address: Yelang Valley Scenic Area, Huaxi District, Guiyang 🎫Ticket: 20 yuan (unlimited time) 🚗Transportation: 40 minutes by taxi in downtown Guiyang. 🎈Playtime: about 2 hours 📷Great for taking photos! An Indian style would be awesome~ 1 person, 20 years, forging a mysterious tribe. "The arrogance of Yelang" is a well-known story, appearing in the Yelang ancient country more than two thousand years ago during the Qin and Han dynasties, alongside the ancient Loulan and ancient Qiuci countries, flourishing for a time and renowned throughout the world. Crossing through the mysterious tunnels of history, the charm of Yelang culture is endless. In a Yelang valley in Guizhou, modern imagination of ancient Yelang is fully integrated. Using the phrase "unknown to the world" to describe Nightingale Valley is very appropriate. Before entering the scenic area, a forest blocks out the noise from the city. Looking around, all you see are trees, but once you pass through the Masson pine forest, you discover a hidden paradise. The canyon is long and deep, like a giant tear in the earth. Walking along the valley floor, you'll come across small bridges and flowing water, making for a pleasant journey. Looking up from below, the white clouds are far away, and the towering cliffs are breathtaking! Here is the Nightman under the command of Song Peilun, an artist who has returned from traveling in America. When living in the United States, Song Peilun created "Nightman Castle, Nightman Totem, Nightman Masks", and in China, he also created large-scale Nightman national works such as "Devil City, Nightman Valley", as well as many artworks related to Nightman culture. Nightman Valley is Song Peilun's masterpiece among the green mountains and clear waters.Scarlett_Blackthorn+5544

Huaxi Yelang Valley, finding a life partnerGetting There - a Didi is around 45 minutes from Guiyang city center and takes up to 40 minutes. The outside is clearly identifiable because you can already see columns of stone heads lining up. A ticket will cost around 65rmb. Attractions - This is, as they like to call it "the story of stone", these big facial pillars all lined up in rows are in itself an attraction, there's also a castle you can gaze upon and enjoy the waterway dividing them. Food & Restaurants - there are some small vendors inside and out selling water, drinks and small snacks. Shopping - This is the only place I picked up a souvenir, as the stone head shapes are so unique. #solotravel #staycation #urbanexplorersliceoflife7
Good for a few hoursIf you’re in Guiyang and not sure what to do in the city, you should check out Yelang valley. Good place for a little walk and nice art to look at. Location: Huaxi, Guiyang, GuizhouEva20225

Song Castle of Yelang ValleyStone age. Big chunks of stones. Different sizes of stone heads. Standing as high as 20feet or even more. These are remarkably huge stone head castle. Solely built by Chinese artist Song Peilun. Mr. Song designed and built the stone castle in the barren forest with the theme of Nuo's opera's facial make up, masks and characters, and the materials of stones, pottery pieces, and pots that can be seen everywhere, based on a local mountain shape, river direction and its original state. The castle is the half of the two main attractions inside the Huaxi Yelang Valley park. #solofemaletraveler #explorechina #birthdaytreatmissays197911

Unique Experience at Yelang ValleySpend a couple hours exploring these unique stone statues near Guiyang. The park is not very big so 1-2 hours should be plenty. There’s quite a few vendors selling a drinks and snacks and a gift shop with themed art to purchase. If you want to take photos get there early. The sun can create some unattractive shadows so go on a cloudy for better photos. Cost - 20 rmb Getting There - Drive about 45 minutes from the Guiyang city center. Take a didi there if you don’t have a car. I was easily able to find one coming back too. #summervacation #chinatravel #guiyang #guizhoutravel #guizhou #guizhoutrip #urbanexplorerglowabroad12

Stone Head Castle in GuiyangThis holiday I decided to pick a completely random destination just from looking at a map of China. I decided on Guiyang as I hadn't seen much about it on social media. I am extremely happy with this choice. On the first day we went to the Stone Head Castle built by Song Peilun during his 70s. Each head is uniquely designed and there are more than 200 stone heads on the grounds. This project took him 20 years. From the city, you can take a taxi for 70rmb and that takes 45mins OR you can take a bus for 2 hours. There are plenty of food vendors on site and lots of souvenir shops. The cost of an entry ticket is 20rmb. #guiyang #guizhoutravel #chinatravel #tigeryear2022 #stoneheads #travels #travel InspirationPhila51

Guizhou - Huaxi Yelang ValleyYelang Valley was a very unique and fun trip! It’s a 15 minute drive from Qingyan Ancient Town and about a 45 minute drive from Guiyang. I travelled by taxi which was both easy and cost effective. Admission price was 40rmb and I spent around an hour at the site. A huge stone castle has been built with numerous stone heads dotted around and throughout the grounds. The heads were rather comical, and there seemed to be a stone faced figure to represent all the emotions you can think of. There is also a beautiful river that flows through the grounds. #travelinspiration #awesomepic #summervacation #summervacationC Travels68
Guiyang·Huaxi Yelang ValleyYelang Valley Karst Ecopark is a uniquely dominant and mysterious valley. The entire ecopark is nestled within a canyon, covering an area of 200,000 square meters, and it is said that the opposing Doupo Mountain was once the residence of the successor of the King of Yelang, Jinzhu Si. The top of the mountain still retains the ruins of the ancient Yelang Tunbao, and thus the valley is named after it. Doupo Mountain was the territory of the ancient Yelang state government, Yelang Yi. The descendants of the King of Yelang, Jinzhu Prefecture, were located here. The summit of Doupo Mountain still preserves the remnants of the ancient Yelang city walls and Tunbao.Jess Nienow
Truth or Dare|Is Guiyang Huaxi Night Lang Valley really worth visiting?|Is Guiyang Huaxi Night Lang Valley really worth visiting? I found this place from the photos everyone shared online📷, and it truly seems like a photogenic spot. Hidden in the urban area, this mysterious ancient kingdom▶️ also piques my curiosity about what kind of sanctuary a senior artist has spent decades building. There are mixed reviews online about this place; some feel that the 20 yuan ticket price is not worth it, the site is too crowded to get good photos... and so on. If you're just going to take photos, this is a nice place👇 Pay attention to the following points to enhance your experience: ▶️Consider wearing exotic or brightly colored clothing. ▶️The scenic area is somewhat close to residential areas, so be mindful of your composition/it's best to bring a friend who is good at photography or plan your shots in advance to ensure quick and effective photography. ▶️Try to visit early in the morning or late in the evening when it's less crowded/most spots are designed with the 'big scene, small people' composition in mind, and it's indeed hard to take good photos when it's crowded/or you could use a large aperture for close-up shots. Overall, our personal impression was positive👀. The first view upon entering can be described as stunning🙋. It was an overcast day, and we entered the park in the evening📷. Even photos taken with a phone turned out great.TrekkingTrails

The small scenic spot is amazing. An artist has spent 10 years building a stone city. The portrait shape is very cute. It is very popular. It is crowded. It is not big. It is mainly a small mountain. It is very easy to visit. The surrounding area of the scenic spot is still under construction and is perfect. The overall is very beautiful.
It is very popular inside, all kinds of stone giants, and a small river full of floating rafts. It is not as big as I thought, and I will not find the valley at the beginning. Many people have gone out, but there is another large giant statue in the reverse direction.
This price is not bad. Good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good,
The attraction is located in the suburbs of Guiyang. The traffic is relatively inconvenient. It is still quite shocking. All kinds of sculptures made with large stones, broken stones and tiles are lifelike. I happened to meet the performance in the middle, and I saw the real "Shangdaoshan" and "Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made-Made
Absolutely worth seeing! I thought it was an ordinary artificial landscape, but the human emotions can definitely impact you deeply. Especially after walking through the noisy shops, a huge statue of a quiet stand with different expressions suddenly came to face, the first time I felt that it was Asgard in Thor, which was a dream and a free world, completely pulling people away from reality. Of course, there are also many cultural and creative shops that rent ethnic costumes to take pictures, especially the masks of the two bosses are particularly eye-catching. I can't help but buy ornaments, refrigerator stickers and wind bells, hoping to take home this touch.
A strange-shaped stone forest traffic: Guilin North Station taxi to Yelang Valley more than 30 kilometers, to Qingyan Ancient Town through this place, see the guide recommended to come and see. Tickets: 20 scenery: porcelain, gravel interpretation of different forms of characters and animal sculpture park, with mythical ancient countries, is a dream? Is curiosity? Is creativity? Is the display of artistic atmosphere... It is very suitable for punching in and taking pictures, and it is also very suitable for family tours with children. At present, the nearby back mountain is being repaired, and the overall scenery in the valley cannot be photographed. In summer, it will be more suitable for punching in.
It is completely different from the beautiful landscape, the stone-built Yelang Ancient Country, the photo is very good, the price is also cost-effective, the cultural difference is large, the scattered is not tired, the public transportation is not convenient enough, there is no special tourist line, you have to turn around
