Hello everyone, long time no see, I miss it so much, I'm here to update it again
What I want to talk to you about today is a relatively niche place - Yelang Valley, when I saw this name, did I instantly think of an idiom?But compared to the idiom, what I think of more is the sentence "I send my sorrow and the bright moon, and follow the wind until the night is long." ”
The mysterious ancient kingdom of Yoro is not a very strong stroke in the history books, but I don't know if it's a curiosity or really interested, I did have my own imagination about this kingdom that didn't exist for a long time, so when I knew that it was possible to have a landmark building about Yoro in the place of Gu Yero's existence, how could I not yearn for it.
Huaxi Yelang Valley, a place that seems to be out of reality when you walk in, with strange rocks, statues, strange shapes, and heavy stones will definitely be your deepest impression of it.
Regarding the unique shape of these stones, aside from the creative concept of the combination of man and nature, I always feel that part of the reason is because of the uniqueness of Yelang country, its territory is still uncertain, but the territorial dispute has always been between Xinhuang, Hunan, Hezhang, Guizhou and other places, and these places are now the gathering places of ethnic minorities, so Gu Yelang must be a gathering place of ethnic minorities.
And the culture of ethnic minorities, even now, still has some mysterious colors. Many of Yelang's customs, such as fertility worship, ancestor worship, ghost worship and the architectural form of the Yoro people's house, have always affected the lives of the local people, they believe in boulders, ancient trees, and feel that these can protect them, and when they encounter major events, they will divinate and ask for good fortune.
The shape of these stone statues may also draw on this part of the culture, so at first glance, you will think that it is rare, mysterious and unique, in short, this is an ideal place to know about the country of Yoro.
Of course, the above is all my guess, even if I don't know what the ancient country of Yoro is, it is also artistically creative, and it is also suitable for those who like to hunt for curiosities.
The works as far as the eye can see are all from Mr. Song Peilun, and the stone statues in Yelang Valley have taken him 20 years to pile up little by little, and it is said that the stones are also made of local materials. He did all this because he had a different complex for his national culture, and in any case, his perseverance in giving up what he had already achieved and being willing to spend so long building such a work where man and nature coexist is admirable.
The overall viewing area here is not very large, about two hours to walk around and pat, and even if it is just a tour, it is about 40 minutes if it is fast, and it costs 20 yuan for a ticket to enter, and the student ID card is half price, you can make an appointment in advance, or you can buy a ticket when you arrive.
In addition to these stone statues, there are some studios about drawings, and there are some natural scenery around, mountains, forests, lakes, and if the rainy season passes, then it is probably quiet and quiet.
Overall, this is a suitable attraction for a weekend break, and it is not recommended to run all the way there, after all, the place is not big.
Okay, that's all for today, if you also like Yelang Valley, I hope my article can help you understand him a little bit, if you also like travel, welcome to follow me.
