Babao is a Zhuang Autonomous Town in the Southeast Guangnan County, Wenshan Prefecture. It’s neither too cold in winter, nor too hot in summer there. Besides historical sites, cultural relics and natural sceneries, Babao exhibits colorful ethnic cultures of Zhuang, Miao, Yi, Yao and Han etc. To put it shortly, major scenic attractions in Babao include: Babao River, Sanla and Gefeng Waterfalls, Tianfangleitan Shoal, Pearl Shoal, Shiyakou Shoal, Tangna Cave, Yafang Cave, various Karst landscapes, old bridges and remains of ancient civilization etc. The old bridges, most of which were stone arch-bridges constructed in the Ming and Qing dynasties, are the highlights in Guangnan. They have been laid out over Babao River thus bringing attractive sights. As the best preserved one, Babao Shuangqiao (double bridge) was listed as a protected relic unit in 1988 by the provincial government of Yunnan [the Double Bridge is composed of North Bridge (Li’an Bridge) and South Bridge (Babao Bridge), both constructed in 1788]. Many a site of ancient civilization has proved that Babao has enjoyed a long history and is one of the cradles of human being. The Paleolithic remains in Baiyu Village, Neolithic remains in Anling and Tianfang Villages and the Neolithic cliff paintings in Tianfang Village have been paid on great attention by archeologists.
