九州驛站·天門溝

尊敬的各位游客：

    歡迎你進入九州驛站·天門溝旅游風(fēng)景區(qū)!

    九州驛站·天門溝地處英德石門臺自然保護區(qū)西部八寶山。八寶山歷史上稱為堯山，北宋時期的著名書畫大師-米芾(與蘇軾、黃庭堅、蔡襄一并稱“北宋四大家”)，宋熙寧年間任浛洸縣(今英德浛洸鎮(zhèn))縣尉時常游堯山作下眾多詩篇，其中描寫堯山和天門溝的代表作是題為《堯山·天門溝》的五言律詩：“信矣此山高，穹窿遠朝市。暑木結(jié)蒼陰，飛泉落青翠。”其字體如人，甚是癲狂，形象生動地反映出堯山和天門溝秀美的自然風(fēng)光。

    據(jù)史料記載，唐宋時期至清末年間堯山腳下天門淘口處一直是一所官府為過往官差而設(shè)立的驛站，名為“堯山客?！?，主要是為廣州府往西京(西安)的過往官差提供歇息和馬匹換乘而設(shè)立，至今地下還留有清晰的遺跡和常用的生活器具。它不僅有著日常接待過往官吏、郵差的作用，其延伸的更是承載著一幅長達千年的社會變遷歷史?！耙或T紅塵妃子笑，無人知是荔枝來”。這個在唐玄宗與楊貴妃年代廣為傳頌、傳誦至今的映像故事，在漫長而又古老的驛道上只是一個點綴。因此，為了這些一個又一個美麗動人的點綴得以延續(xù)，我們古為今用，應(yīng)現(xiàn)代社會的需要于2005年開始重建這個驛站，作為現(xiàn)代九州驛站的前置，廣東境內(nèi)樞紐性、標(biāo)榜性驛站，在為現(xiàn)代都市人重返自然的驛道上肩負著旅途歇息、安全保障、迷途指引這些方面的使命，并希望通過本站的建設(shè)運營，在九州大地上建立一個又一個驛站，為所有熱愛自然的人士提供各具地方風(fēng)情的本來家園。

    東經(jīng)l13、北緯24.5是這里的坐標(biāo)，南有群山中浛洸古鎮(zhèn)，北有廣袤的原始森林，頭頂高達千米的英德大峽谷、乳源大峽谷，身處周圍是由2000多種珍稀動植物組成的完整生態(tài)鏈，呼吸到的是純凈的空氣，所飲到的更是毫無污染經(jīng)千層砂礫巖過慮的清泉，這里冬暖夏涼、四季常綠，流水瀑布終年不息，移步皆景，因而成就了養(yǎng)生度假的最為重要的基礎(chǔ)地理條件，也將成就九州驛站以自然為基本的文化特征。站內(nèi)為你而設(shè)有三大功能區(qū)，即驛站休閑度假區(qū)、天門溝景區(qū)、百鳥堂度假區(qū)。驛站休閑度假區(qū)主要功能是導(dǎo)游服務(wù)、餐飲服務(wù)、特產(chǎn)展示(水和農(nóng)產(chǎn)品)、農(nóng)耕文化體驗(驛站農(nóng)莊)、樹上生活體驗(樹屋村、樹上餐廳)、天然養(yǎng)生體驗(樹上溫泉理療、樹上彩虹霧浴)等。百鳥堂度假區(qū)由于還處在規(guī)劃建設(shè)階段，沒有任何的指引和保障，日前不允許前往游覽。

    天門溝由其中段最大落差處自然形成的凹狀而得名，常有云霧飄繞其中，酷似夢幻中的天門，相傳凡人只要跨越天門就可進入天堂，洗盡凡塵而成仙。天門溝有如“十里銀河”，全長約5000M，海撥達900米高，最大垂直落差136米(天門瀑布)，總坡度45度，平坦、陡峭、婉轉(zhuǎn)幽深、開闊相繼。天門溝常年泉水不息，水從石縫滲出匯集而成溪流，最大泉眼(天泉)每小時流量過100m3，泉溫度20℃±2℃，常年不變，全溝水量上大下小(由于溝中下處遭人為引水發(fā)電所至)，水質(zhì)極其秀麗。透明度達10米以上，飲之清甜潤澤，極盡涼快，天門溝周邊森林茂盛，含氧量極高，空氣負離子達飽和度，故溯溪時不覺疲累。可謂“九寨歸來不看水、天門過后不飲泉”，正是真實的寫照。

    樹上溫泉：天門溝創(chuàng)造性地從落差達300米高的天門溝第三站(不老泉)引泉噴霧于林中，泉霧與天門溝闊葉森林區(qū)的飽氧空氣共同形成一道負離子霧浴場，人置身于樹上溫泉霧浴區(qū)，通過呼吸和皮膚毛細血管的張合，不老泉水中的天然小分子團、礦物質(zhì)和氧分迅速進入到人體細胞的每個角落，令肌膚時刻充盈干凈，具有明顯的美顏效果。

    樹屋村：由過百個風(fēng)情各異的樹屋單元組合而成，配有樹上餐廳和空中閑憩樓臺和多種康體娛樂設(shè)施。村內(nèi)由一條森林空中木棧道貫穿連接到每個樹上建筑，猶如一個理想中的原始森林部落，樹屋全由原木構(gòu)筑而成，屋內(nèi)配置各具個性，共同之處只在于自然文化的表達和交流。

    生態(tài)農(nóng)莊：一洼菜地、一間小屋、一張大床、一張茶臺、兩張小凳和幾盞燈籠，盡管不如大賓館客棧的舒適，卻有時刻相伴的土地和無邊的曠野。適宜久居城市。渴望同歸土地的人群。周末或者節(jié)假日，帶上孩子，陪著愛人，一同感受農(nóng)耕的樂趣。在孩子的歡聲笑語中，將心情放飛到自然深處。郁郁蔥蔥的有機蔬菜、豐收的果實，也是帶給親朋好友的最佳禮物。

    特色食品：米芾雞——選用正宗的波羅雞加入野生靈芝蒸燉而成，味香四溢，可強身健體。

    問自然萬物為何和諧，為何多情，為何包融？你置身體驗后便可知曉一二，游客中心及客房備有《驛站導(dǎo)游》，閱后更知詳盡。謝謝!

    各位來賓，我為大家的講解服務(wù)到此結(jié)束了，希望有機會能再為人家提供講解服務(wù)!謝謝大家！祝大家旅途愉快!
