点评:The weather wasn't on our side when my family and I visited Huangshan. As luck would have it, Tiandu Peak was closed, so we didn't even get the chance to see how steep and spectacular it is. Instead, we decided to take the less known trail to Fairy Bridge(步仙橋). It is a small nature-looking arch bridge suspended between two gigantic cliffs. To get there, you have to hike all the way down a long series of stairs before reaching the bridge itself. The mountain trails down there are deep, misty, and precipitous and I think the scenes on the way also help to add a touch of excitement to this journey.
From my experience, not many people choose this route because you have to hike all the way back the same way you came, which is definitely a great test of stamina. BUT it is 100% worth it! The hike took us about 3 hours, including breaks and plenty of photo stops. Afterwards, we headed to Xihai Hotel, where we had a wonderful stay. Personally, I think Fairy Bridge may be one of the most underrated spots in Huangshan.
As a nature lover, it was my first time being completely surrounded by such thick and rolling mist. It was also the first time I realized that I might have Megalophobia! The rocks felt sooo alive...Even now, whenever I think back on that hike, I still feel a little intimidated by those ancient, colossal, and almost otherworldly rock formations as if the enormous cliffs could suddenly came to life and swallowed me whole.
Standing among them, I could only stare in awe as I felt completely embraced by Huangshan's incredible energy.
Felt so blessed that I got to experience all this with my family. : )
翻译:我和家人去黄山的时候,天气不太好。更糟糕的是,天渡峰关闭了,我们连欣赏它陡峭壮观的景色都没能如愿。于是,我们决定走一条鲜为人知的步仙桥路线。这是一座小巧精致的拱桥,悬于两座巨大的悬崖之间。要到达桥边,必须先沿着长长的台阶一路向下。下山的山路幽深、云雾缭绕、险峻无比,沿途的景色也为这段旅程增添了几分刺激。
就我的经验来看,选择这条路线的人不多,因为原路返回确实很考验体力。但绝对值得!我们花了大约三个小时才走完,包括休息和拍照的时间。之后,我们前往西海饭店,在那里度过了一段美好的时光。我个人认为,仙女桥可能是黄山最被低估的景点之一。
作为一个自然爱好者,这是我第一次被如此浓厚的云雾完全包围。也是我第一次意识到自己可能患有巨石恐惧症!那些岩石仿佛有了生命……即使现在,每当我回想起那次徒步旅行,我仍然会被那些古老、巨大、近乎超凡脱俗的岩石所震慑,仿佛那些巨大的悬崖随时都会活过来,将我吞噬。
站在它们中间,我只能惊叹地凝视着,感受着黄山不可思议的能量完全拥抱着我。
能够和家人一起体验这一切,我感到无比幸运。:)
