In the depths of Taihang, 60 kilometers northwest of Huixian County, Henan Province, on a high cliff at an altitude of 1700 meters, there is a unique stone house with its unique mountain shape, overlapping peaks, beautiful mountains and waters, beautiful caves and waterfalls, long Tanshen creeks, and simple stone houses. , simple mountain people, there are stone millstones and stone walls, stone tables and stone benches, stone kangs, farmhouses with muddy stones to the top, one by one, row by row, sitting on the cliffs of thousands of miles along the mountain. With its unique charm, it has attracted a large number of Chinese and foreign tourists. It is the Pearl of Taihang - Guo Liang.

There are the majestic Mount Tai, the dangers of Huashan, the tall and straight Songshan, the beauty of Huangshan, the primitive desolate ancient times, and the real nature.

When you arrive at Guoliang Village, you must walk through the Taihang Grand Canyon. The rocks on the cliffs of the canyon are red. In the past, this cliff road was the only ancient road leading to the Central Plains in the mountains.

The majestic southern Taihang Mountains are deep in the canyons. On the cliffs with thousands of miles above their heads and abyss beneath their feet, the people of the Taihang Mountains are united in their efforts to dig out seven "wall-mounted" roads with steel drills and iron hammers, creating a miracle in the world and becoming a rare one. Human landscape, every "wall-mounted" road is amazing.

This kind of road is looming, such as hanging on the wall, so it has the name of the image of the wall-mounted road, which can be called the most dangerous road in the world.

Guo Liang is famous for its beautiful mountains and unique stone houses, and attracts tourists with its surrounding natural scenery.

Guoliang Cave is 1,200 meters long. The top of the cave is a rugged rock. The natural stone pillars supporting the roof of the corridor were left during excavation, forming a "lighting window" under the cliff. The Japanese praised it as "the eighth wonder of the world."

The cliff promenade Guoliang Cave is winding, flickering, bright and dark, and up and down. Some cave walls are neat and flat, while others are uneven and have different shapes.

In 1972, in order to allow the villagers to walk down the mountain, 13 villagers, under the leadership of Shen Mingxin, sold goats and yams, and raised funds to buy steel hammers and steel files. In the absence of electricity and machinery, relying solely on hand power, it took five years to chisel a 26,000-cubic-meter strip of stone with a height of 5 meters, a width of 4 meters and a total length of 1300 meters in the cliff. Cave - Guoliang Cave, opened to traffic on May 1, 1977. To this end, Wang Huaitang and other villagers sacrificed their lives

Steep and steep like a Norwegian preaching stone
