The Jinzibei Trail was officially developed by the Qing Dynasty and became the main route for civilian business travel.
In 1867, the general of the Qing Dynasty, Liu Mingdeng, passed by this place. When he saw the majestic and steep terrain, he raised a poem of seven-character rhythm, and then carved it on the stone wall. This is our goal.
This path is rather dark, the sun is blocked by dense old trees, and the path is covered with moss. We occasionally heard the unknown bird calling, but we could not see it.
The squirrel occasionally showed up to say hello, but immediately ran away, too late to take a picture. Perhaps this old trail is sparsely visited, and we are new to squirrels!
The whole journey of the Jinzibei Trail is about 1.3 kilometers, except for a turning platform in the middle, it can be slightly rested. Most of the distances are quite steep and challenging all the way up.
It took us nearly 40 minutes to arrive and quickly returned before dark. If you are interested, you can experience this ancient road and see if you can take a picture of a squirrel.
