Dadu River Jinkou Grand Canyon, experience the difficulty of the Shu Road.

To get to the Dadu River Jinkou Grand Canyon from Leshan, you can only take the national highway with a speed limit of 40 km/h, which is winding and full of large trucks. After entering the canyon scenic area, the national highway is still under construction, so you have to continue to climb a 6 km long simple road on the cliff, which is only wide enough for one car, and then add a 1 km long tunnel, which is also only wide enough for one car, to reach the Railway Corps Museum. For drivers from large cities in the northern plains, this drive is very exciting. On the steel cable suspension bridge (Tongxin Bridge) that crosses the canyon, you can overlook the popular water road below. The family on the other side of the bridge has built a viewing platform in their own yard (CNY 2/person, which is not unreasonable). The male owner, speaking in a not very fluent Sichuan dialect, enthusiastically points out the location for tourists to take photos, which is somewhat understandable. The Railway Corps Museum is built together with the tourist village supported by Pujiang County, Zhejiang Province, so you may feel that the tourist village has a vague sense of déjà vu with the Jiangnan farmhouse. Looking down from the museum, the Guancunba Station is still in operation. When the Chengdu-Kunming Railway was built in the 1960s, three railway soldiers sacrificed their lives for every kilometer of railway. Today, the railway and highway run parallel to each other, which may be enough to comfort the spirits of the martyrs. The difficulty of the Shu Road, Its danger is such, Why do you come from afar? The earth collapses and the mountains are crushed, and the strong men die, Only then can the turbulent and winding road to Sichuan be opened. The difficulty of the Shu Road was once more difficult than reaching the sky.
