Thousand-year-old ginkgo tree: There is a big ginkgo tree (the Millennium Ginkgo tree) on Baijin Banyan Zhangzhai at an altitude of1130m. Appraised by forestry experts, this ginkgo tree is more than 4,000 years old, with a height of more than 40 meters, a DBH of 4.07 meters, a bust 12.8 meters and a crown diameter of 25 meters. The core of the trunk is empty and can accommodate one person. Its branches are twisted and circled in various ways, as if they had been artificially carved; There are many "air roots" on the trunk, just like upside-down stalactites. Although after thousands of years of ups and downs, Dabaiguo has welcomed Miao children from generation to generation, and its body is full of wrinkles, leaving traces of stains and spots, but it is still full of vitality and flourishing leaves, with annual results of about 1500 kg. Appraised by experts in the province, this ginkgo tree can be called the "king of ginkgo" in Guizhou. There is a 300-year-old ginkgo tree at 10 meters. This ginkgo tree only blooms but does not bear fruit. The flowers are light blue, in sharp contrast to the non-flowering ginkgo trees. Because of its large, strange and ancient characteristics, the local Miao people regard it as a sacred tree.
Mysterious Cave Burial (Coffin Cave): There are many coffins and complete coffins in the coffin cave 4 kilometers east of our town, ranking first in the county. Located at the foot of Chongxian Bridge in Wuhu, Shitouzhai, Baijinchang New Village, it is an east-west hole. There is a small river at the bottom of the cave, the famous Stone River, which runs through the cave all the year round. There is a Miao village named Zhao 0.5 kilometers downstream of the cave, and the river winds through the foot of the village. The coffin in the cave is Zhao's ancestor. The wood (that is, the head) placed in the coffin faces east, and the small head (that is, the foot) faces west, probably because the Miao people want to return to their ancestral home in the East after their death! Some coffin lids use lime to draw thick lines of cows, horses, pigs, dogs and chickens. The funerary objects include earrings, bracelets, suona, lusheng, flute, shawl, pottery, wood, grain and so on. Nowadays, people can not only see the spectacular scenes of hundreds of coffins at a glance, but also appreciate the karst caves, the Milky Way and the Tiansheng Bridge in karst terrain, and even appreciate the wisdom and courage of the ancients to send so many coffins to cliffs 20 to 30 meters high when the productivity is very low and the production tools are backward.
