Zhangjiajie self-help tour

In order to let more tourists who don't want to travel with the group come to Zhangjiajie, Chen Binte, a self-help tour guide in Zhangjiajie, has compiled a detailed self-help tour guide in Zhangjiajie for everyone. It is a practical travel guide book that must be read when you come to Zhangjiajie.

Zhangjiajie has jurisdiction over Yongding, Wulingyuan, Cili and Sangzhi counties. In 2008, the total population was 6.5438+0.6395 million, with a total area of 9,563 square kilometers. The municipal government is located in Yongding County, 390 kilometers (4 hours' drive) from Changsha, the provincial capital, and 300 kilometers from the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River. It is 2 1 1 km from Fenghuang Ancient City (4 hours' drive). 0/56 km from Jishou/Kloc-(2.5 hours by car). Zhangjiajie National Forest Park and Wulingyuan Scenic Area are collectively called Wulingyuan Core Scenic Area, which is 32 kilometers away from Zhangjiajie City.

Main attractions in Zhangjiajie city: Tianmen Mountain, Tujia Style Garden, Old Courtyard, Xiuhuashan Pavilion and other attractions; The core scenic spot of Wulingyuan is the scenic spot. It has four scenic spots: 1 Zhangjiajie National Forest Park (Huangshizhai Tour Line, Jin Bianxi Tour Line, Yaozizhai Tour Line, Yuanjiajie Tour Line); 2. Yang Jiajie Scenic Area (Wulongzhai Tour Line, One Step to Heaven-Air Corridor); 3. Tian Zi Scenic Area (Daguan Platform Tour Line, He Long Park Tour Line); 4. Suoxiyu Scenic Area (Shili Gallery Tour Line, Huanglong Cave, Baofeng Lake).

1. How to get to the downtown area from Zhangjiajie Railway Station and Airport?

1. Railway Station: No.5 and No.6 buses all go downtown (1 yuan/person, 22:00-06:00 2 yuan/person). The No.6 bus stops at the railway station square, and the No.5 bus has to wait on the road in front of the square. Take bus No.6 to the downtown bus stop and get off at "Baidameni". After getting off the bus, turn left at the first direction of the bus and reach the bus stop for 200 meters. The no.5 bus goes directly through the bus station. It only takes more than ten minutes, and it takes a taxi to the downtown area to 15 yuan. Generally don't hit the watch.

2. Airport: It's enough to take a taxi from the airport exit to around 20 yuan (the land at the airport is much more expensive). Turn right after leaving the airport exit and walk 200 meters to the airport gate. There will be many taxis, and it takes 10 minutes to get to the city. There are also 4 buses outside the airport to the city, 1 yuan/person, but the operation time is 8:- 18: 00.

3. Arrive in Zhangjiajie by bus: Zhangjiajie is divided into two bus stations (East Bus Station and Urban Bus Station). The East Bus Station is near the highway intersection. If you get off at the East Bus Station, you can take bus No.2 and No.7 to downtown. But ask before taking the bus, it is best to go to the city bus station.

2. Guide to Eating, Living, Playing and Shopping in Zhangjiajie:

1. Diet in Zhangjiajie:

There are many delicious foods in the downtown area of Zhangjiajie. In addition to spicy food, Tujia people also like to eat unique flavors of wax, acid and pickles. I suggest you try them.

First of all, I recommend Zhangjiajie's special dish "Three Xia Guo". There are two kinds of so-called "three Xia Guo", one is convenient dry pot, and there is no need to stew hot pot with soup. "Master Hu's three kitchens" (at the traffic lights in Sanjiaoping) is very representative, 15 yuan/serving, one person can order one serving, and now the weight is much less than before; The other is the soup pot, where the native chicken, duck, pig (sheep), dog (cow) meat, Tujia bacon and so on are processed first. After the guests order, they mix and stew. When eating, they order some lotus roots, taro, potatoes, kelp and so on cooked with bone soup. That's cool! I'll make you sweat! Sister Tang has three cooks (Old Cross Street) is very representative.

You can eat game and corrode people with more money in their pockets. The name of "Shan Gui Village" is very distinctive: there are wild boar, eight-haired mice, muntjac meat, bacon and so on (Phoenix bend intersection).

There are food stalls at night in Xinfeng Market and Nanzhuangping Market in Zhangjiajie City, and 70 yuan can make four people eat well. Tujia cuisine includes preserved meat, blood tofu, social food, sour fish, dregs, fried wild bee eggs, pupae and so on. I suggest you try Tujia hot pot and Tujia snacks with unique flavor, including Ge Fen, rice wine, bean jelly, Baba and so on. The price is not expensive, you must try it.

2. Zhangjiajie city live broadcast:

Zhangjiajie, after all, is a tourist city. There are hotels of all grades, and there are a lot of choices.

Travelers are advised to choose to live near Jiefang Road and bus station as far as possible, because it is more convenient to go to scenic spots or return-there are forest hotels, Yuping hotels and noble hotels nearby.

Wulingyuan (Suoxiyu): Gaoyun Village Villa Area (quasi-Phase III) Price11kloc-0/50 yuan/Double Standard Room. Samsung's room is in 160-200 yuan/double standard room. Four stars in 320-480 yuan/room (the accommodation price is determined according to the off-season).

4. Shopping in Zhangjiajie

Zhangjiajie is a small city, and there are BBK Supermarket, Wanjia Shopping Center and Minnie Supermarket.

Zhangjiajie has many local products, especially kiwi fruit, Qingyan Cuiming tea, lobster scented tea, Tricholoma matsutake, etc., which are original and cheap; Sangzhi salty bean curd is a tribute of Qing Dynasty, and "Gegenbao" is a series of pure natural green drinks, which integrates health care and longevity.

After drifting, I changed from furong town to Phoenix.

Zhangjiajie three-day and two-night tour route:

On the first day, we set off from Zhangjiajie city and took a 50-minute bus ride directly to the ticket office of Forest Park to visit the scenic spot. We visited Jin Bianxi on foot: Mother-Child Peak-Pig's Wife-Hong Jun Road-Eagle Whip-Buddhist Scriptures of Master-Apprentice-Searching for Mountain to Save Mother-Ergui Tanxi-Scholar's Hall-Zicaotan-Meeting Thousands of Miles, and climbing the mountain to Yuanjiajie.

Note: It is more appropriate to visit the scenic spot for three days and two nights, and the time is too short to visit the elite scenic spots; Too long, the brain is highly nervous, and it is easy to produce visual fatigue, and you will visit the same scenic spot. Zhangjiajie scenic spots are numerous and scattered, with many forks in the road, and many scenic spots are relatively remote. Tourists often can't estimate the time correctly from one scenic spot to another. Detours, going back and forth, and going the wrong way are commonplace for many tourists who travel by themselves. Many travelers feel very embarrassed because it is getting late and they haven't found a place to stay. If you have enough time and are not afraid to bargain everywhere, you can visit the above scenic spots without a guide, but if you want to listen to Xiangxi's explanation and save trouble, it is still necessary to find a guide. Moreover, the money spent on finding a tour guide with good reputation is similar to the money spent on playing, and more importantly, it will not go back a lot.

Living in a scenic spot:

Accommodation outside the scenic spot is mainly at the entrance of Wulingyuan (Suoxiyu) and Forest Park. Here I mainly introduce the accommodation in the scenic spot, because the admission ticket is managed in two days, which means that you can enter the mountain repeatedly in two days (the ticket has a fingerprint query system and others can't use it); In order to see more scenery, friends in go on road trip can choose a more convenient family hotel in the scenic spot, which saves the fatigue of running back and forth, saves time and is not limited by the time of big tickets.

Accommodation in scenic spots is mainly distributed in (Yuanjiajie, Wulongzhai, Lilac Banyan and Tianzi Mountain near Daguan Platform), but Lilac Banyan (Daguan Platform is the best place to watch the sunrise in Zhangjiajie) is relatively more convenient, because it is in the middle of all tourist routes, and it is convenient to go to all tourist routes from there. Of course, you can also choose the accommodation area according to the time of your visit.

Core attractions: Tujia Luyou Inn 60-80 yuan/Double standard room (air conditioning, separate bathroom, color TV, hot water shower, Simmons). There is little difference in the appearance of the farmhouse hotel, mainly because of the difference in room hygiene and old and new quilts, so the price is different. But safety is not a problem, you can stay safely.

5. Eating at scenic spots:

The prices of scenic spots around the world will be several times higher than those in the market, and Zhangjiajie scenic spot is no exception. Because the mountain is high, the food is carried or picked up by the villagers, and the cost and price are relatively high. Meat dishes cost more than 30 yuan per dish, and game dishes cost more than 80 yuan, including wild boar, deer, bamboo chicken, Chinese fir and wild fungus. And vegetables are 15 yuan.

Visit the scenic spots around Zhangjiajie;

1. Maoyan River Drifting: Located in Maogang, Yongding County, Zhangjiajie City, 35 kilometers away from the urban area, it has the reputation of "Baili Gallery". Rafting by rubber boat, a trip of hundreds of miles a day, you can enjoy the beautiful canyon scenery and realize the drifting danger of the ship. 150 yuan/person (including round-trip transportation fee), the car of the drifting company will come directly to the hotel for pick-up.

2. Mengdong River rafting: 180 yuan/person (including round-trip transportation fee), the car of the rafting company will come directly to the hotel for pick-up.

3. Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon: a newly developed tourist attraction. Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon originally had two names, one was rotten boat gorge: it originated from Shenquan Creek, where the water of the whole Grand Canyon and the southern Hongqi Canal came from. It is said that there used to be a lot of rotten planks pouring out of the spring, and the locals couldn't know where the rotten planks came from, so they named it "rotten boat gorge"; There is also a name called Luanquan Gorge: it refers to two stone walls in the canyon, where there are many streams and springs, and the gorge is constantly flowing. Admission 120 yuan/person.

4. One-day tour of Tianmen Mountain and Tujia Style Garden is 356 yuan/person, of which Tianmen Mountain is 258 yuan/person (including two-way ropeway) and Tujia Style Garden is 98 yuan/person.

Tips for Zhangjiajie Tourism

1. Zhangjiajie scenic spot is very large, so I don't know the local accommodation. Pure self-help tour may bring some unnecessary troubles. It is best to find a local escort to play in the form of semi-self-help tour or all-inclusive tour, which will save some unnecessary trouble.

2. After arriving in Zhangjiajie, don't take some special free or low-cost pick-up or pick-up vehicles at the railway station or airport. The best means of transportation is to take a taxi, take a bus or ask a good tour guide to send a car in advance, otherwise it will take you to places you don't want to go; Don't trust guides and salesmen who quote too low and are too enthusiastic. They will make your trip unpleasant.

3. Try to avoid Spring Festival, Labor Day and National Day. All the prices of food, accommodation and transportation will rise by about 50%, reaching 100%, and it is very likely that there will be no place to live.

4. Dining in Zhangjiajie Scenic Area is very expensive, because the mountain is high and the food is carried or picked up by the villagers, so the cost is relatively high. It is suggested that the donkey friends ask the tour guide to pack the rice.

5. Students under the age of 24, the elderly (over 70 years old), the disabled, military officers and journalists' cards, don't forget to bring them before going out, and you can enjoy the corresponding preferential tickets.

6. The less luggage, the better. The lighter the better. It is best to bring an umbrella or rain-proof clothes (you can also buy a raincoat once in the local area, a few yuan 1 block). Because the weather in mountainous areas is unpredictable, you must bring sunscreen and mosquito repellent in summer and prepare some wet paper towels for disinfection. Simple drugs such as shoe band-AIDS, anti-inflammatory tablets and antidiarrheal tablets (to prevent acclimatization); Wear non-slip sneakers for shoes.

7. Prepare some dry food (it is tiring to climb mountains) to satisfy hunger, bottle drinks and water (reduce the high-priced purchase expenses during the trip), and spread the money well. If you have a national bank magnetic card, you'd better take it with you and your ID card.
