Zhongtu Inn is a very interesting inn. It is also the inn with the largest number of foreign travelers and is very famous among foreign travelers.
There is a balcony called "It's So Cool That You'll Die" and a toilet that is recognized as "the best toilet in the world".
The Zhongtu Inn is located in Bendi Bay. Its guest rooms face the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. When you open the doors and windows, you can see the Jade Dragon Thirteen Peaks as if they are within reach. When you are full at night, you can go to the balcony of "Shuangsi Ni" to drink, chat and look at the stars, which is very pleasant.
It is worth mentioning that the owner of this inn speaks fluent English, and Yang Jing has no difficulty communicating with him in English. In addition, there are really many foreign travelers in this inn, and it is very lively with a lot of chatter.
As for the inn's frighteningly famous "No. 1 Toilet in the World", it is not just a random remark. Whose toilet can directly face the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain?
At the door of the public toilet, there are two wooden signs hanging. One of them reads "Take a shit under the east window and see the jade dragon leisurely." Below it is "The No. 1 Toilet in the World" and the signature is "Xia Ke Xing".
On another wooden sign, there were words like "The Best Toilet in the World" and "Recognized by the World" written on them, which made people laugh.
This No. 1 toilet in the world was first discovered by Gege. After Yang Jing and his friends finished their meal, Gege went to the toilet and found this toilet with a very bad smell. Then, Yang Jing and his friends experienced the charm of this "No. 1 toilet in the world" - it was still smelly. Just because it is the No. 1 toilet in the world, it doesn't mean you can poop without smelling...
The rain stopped on the second day, but the weather was still not sunny, but the visibility was quite high. Such a day without the scorching sun was the best for hiking.
Walking on the small path carved out of the cliff in Zhonghutiao, climbing the iron ladder that is dozens of meters high and almost straight up and down, looking down at the Jinsha River hundreds of meters below, and gazing at the majestic and vicissitudes of life Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in the distance, it really makes people have an irresistible impulse.
Shouting loudly towards the sky and the river to vent the impulse in your heart will make you feel particularly refreshed.
At noon, the four of them did not go to the inn to eat, but sat in a high place, looking at the breathtaking scenery, eating the food they brought, and sipping beer in small sips. It felt really refreshing.
"The scenery here is so beautiful. If I hadn't come here in person, I would never have imagined that there is such a beautiful scenery." Gege sighed, and Yang Jing and Sun Aoran nodded.
Sun Aoran said: "I didn't expect that there would be such an outstanding place so close to me. If I knew it was so beautiful, I should have come to see it a long time ago."
Zhao Shuang shook his head and said, "You only see the beauty here now, but do you know that this famous Grand Canyon is now facing the cruel prospect of disappearing?"
"Disappeared?" Gege looked at Zhao Shuang in surprise. "Is it an earthquake?"
Sun Aoran also said: "I do know that if we walk a little further down, we can see the famous scenery of a high gorge and a flat lake. It seems that when the Lijiang earthquake occurred in 1996, the landslide of Haba Snow Mountain formed a barrier lake there, which also formed a great scenery. But the earthquake that year did not destroy Tiger Leaping Gorge. I really can't think of anything else that can make Tiger Leaping Gorge disappear. Unless there is a big earthquake with a Richter magnitude of 8.0 or even higher. But it's best not to do that, because that kind of earthquake is too scary."
Zhao Shuang glanced at her boyfriend and said, "Can only an earthquake destroy Tiger Leaping Gorge? Aoran, don't forget what we are doing now."
Sun Aoran was stunned, then asked incredulously: "You mean the hydropower station?"
Zhao Shuang nodded, "Yes, it was the hydroelectric power station that almost destroyed Tiger Leaping Gorge."
After a pause, Zhao Shuang said quietly, "In fact, the construction of the Tiger Leaping Gorge Dam caused a series of incidents at the time and even in the past few years. I remember that it was just after the beginning of the new century. I was still young and in elementary school. As a result, there was news that someone wanted to build a dam in the Jin'an Bridge area of Yongsheng."
Sun Aoran slapped his forehead and asked in surprise: "Jin'an Bridge? Isn't it not far from our construction site?"
Zhao Shuang nodded in agreement. "At the beginning of the last century, I don't know where the news came from. It said that the country had determined that the Tiger Leaping Gorge Water Conservancy Project was listed as one of the major projects to be developed in the near future. It was also said that the Tiger Leaping Gorge has a height difference of 196 meters, making it an ideal hydropower base. From the first bend of the Yangtze River to the Yabi River estuary in Panzhihua, the Jinsha River, which is more than 560 kilometers long, has a height difference of 838 meters. It can be built into a cascade hydropower station with 'one reservoir and eight levels'."
When Sun Aoran heard this, his brows immediately frowned. As a power construction worker, when Zhao Shuang said this, he immediately realized that although this plan was good, it would cause great damage to the environment.
As expected, Zhao Shuang continued, "At that time, our country was developing faster and faster, and the demand for energy was also increasing. Due to its low operating costs, quick returns and high returns, hydropower soon became a high-quality investment project sought after by major banks. Seizing spheres of influence was also the strategy of China's major state-owned power companies. Among them, Tiger Leaping Gorge, with its excellent natural geographical conditions, naturally became the first choice for major state-owned power companies."
"Among them, the Yanjing Huarui Group, a private power giant from Yanjing, set its sights on Jin'anqiao. According to the design of Huarui Group, the Jin'anqiao Dam began construction in 2002 and the Jinsha River was blocked in 2005. In those years, Lijiang's annual fiscal revenue was only about 200 million yuan. If the Jin'anqiao Hydropower Station was completed, this hydropower station alone could increase Lijiang's net income by 400 million yuan a year! So at that time, the Lijiang Municipal Party Committee and Government warmly welcomed and attached great importance to Huarui Group's Jin'anqiao Hydropower Project, making it the number one project and giving the green light to this project from top to bottom."
