Food, Housing, Transportation and Shopping in Zhangjiajie

Eating in Zhangjiajie:

Zhangjiajie, located in western Hunan, is rich in ethnic customs, and its diet has both rich Tujia ethnic characteristics and the essence of Hunan cuisine. Spicy is the characteristic of Hunan cuisine, and Tujia cuisine is no exception. In addition to spicy food, Tujia people also like to eat unique flavors of wax, acid and pickles. Zhangjiajie's specialties are: Tujia Sanxia Pot, Fried Bacon with Radix Puerariae, Rock Ear, Xiangxi Beer Duck, Dry Pot Game, and Blood Baba, which have local characteristics and are worth tasting. Dining in Zhangjiajie scenic spot is more expensive. Every dish with meat costs more than 50 yuan, and a game costs more than 100 yuan, including wild boar, bamboo chicken, Chinese fir ear and wild fungus. And vegetables are generally above 20 yuan. Therefore, our pure play self-help tour routes all include scenic spots for dining, and the conditions are average but still delicious and full.

Shan Gui Village, Yelin Hotel, Wulongzhai, Mrs. Xiang and other famous restaurants in the urban area are more tasteful. Although the price is more expensive, the dining place is more sanitary and there are more cuisines. In addition, you can try the most recommended online "Master Hu's Three Cooks", "Old Five Fish Head", "Tang Jie's Three Cooks" and "Yinman Bean Sauerkraut Beef", but because they are all famous online, many people eat them, resulting in poor hygiene and poor dining environment. In addition, I personally think that not everyone likes to eat this kind of three-pot, because it is greasy and needs to add some pepper to taste good.

There is also a delicious snack in Zhangjiajie: stewed meat cake with dried plum vegetables, which is fragrant and crisp. You must try it when you arrive in Zhangjiajie. It's at the entrance of the alley next to Puguang Temple opposite the big lawn. ?

Stay in Zhangjiajie:

Before 200 1, there were many hotels in Zhangjiajie Scenic Area. At that time, tourists who came to play lived in the scenic spot, because it saved time, and they didn't have to waste time going up and down the mountain, spending money on ropeways and ladders. And living on the top of the mountain in the scenic spot is very fresh, so don't have an experience! However, since 200 1 Premier Zhu came, he found that there were too many people living on the mountain, which destroyed the natural ecological environment. A large-scale hotel demolition has been carried out, so there are not many places to stay on the mountain now, leaving only a small number of beds for tourists to stay. ? It is difficult for people to get a room because of the shortage of beds on the mountain. At present, most travel agencies recommend hotels in Wulingyuan Town at the foot of the mountain, which undoubtedly brings inconvenience to the trip. Many scenic spots have to be reduced because it is a waste of time to go back and forth into the mountains. And because everyone lives there, the time for tourists to go in and out of the mountain in the morning and at night is similar, and the itinerary is similar. Therefore, it often takes a long time to get in and out of the mountain, and it is also important to play. So now most self-help tourists choose to live in the mountains. Although there is no luxury under the mountain, it is of great benefit to the scenic spots. Watch the sunrise and sunset, experience the life of Tujia aborigines and get in touch with nature. In addition, because we don't need to go up and down the mountain to waste time, we need to see many scenic spots, such as Yuanjiajie, Yang Jiajie, Wulongzhai, Daguan Platform, Xianren Bridge, old house tour, sky pastoral, magic party and so on, which are not available to regular tour groups in our society. In fact, these scenic spots are beautiful (places that guests have been to are strongly recommended by various forums), but they have to give up just because they have lived outside the scenic spots where the regular club is located for too long. In short, if you want to see more scenic spots, it is the best choice to recommend you to live in the mountains. At present, the inns in the scenic spot are located in Yang Jiajie, Yuanjiajie and Daguan Platform. No matter where they live, it is convenient for them to play. They are not far apart, and there are free eco-cars in the scenic spot. You can go out and stop at the intersection to play any scenic spot. Zhangjiajie's self-driving strategy network specially recommends an inn here: the bandits' nest in Wulongzhai, Yang Jiajie, which is the core part of Zhangjiajie, surrounded by scenic spots such as Tianzi Mountain, Daguan Platform, Laowuchang, Yang Jiajie and Yuanjiajie. It's convenient to watch the sunrise and sunset. You can stay there and play at a fixed point, and you can take a free eco-car when you go out. Very convenient! 20 12 just renovated in August. Well-equipped, inn Tujia style. ?

Tips for going to Zhangjiajie go on road trip;

For guests who come to Zhangjiajie by car, Zhangjiajie is a self-driving guide. Com reminds you that there are often many people of various styles waving to you on the road. As soon as your car stops, I will introduce myself to you as a "regular tour guide" and a "regular travel agency staff" and show you their "various certificates". As long as they get on your bus, they will try their best to negotiate with you about the package tour and do their best to publicize and brag about themselves. Everything they buy in Zhangjiajie is very cheap, and four-star hotels can do it with as little money as possible. Participating in the travel society allows you to travel and take you to see scenic spots that travel agencies can't see. Imagine: a person without any occupation and unknown origin will provide you with ultra-low-cost travel services? A so-called regular tour guide, why not go to a regular travel agency to work hard, and do this kind of high-risk work that is stopped at any time and investigated by the tourism bureau (if the regular tour guide card is investigated, it will be confiscated and the punishment will be severe, and most of the documents shown to you are fake)! It is illegal for any individual or tour guide to receive a tour group, because they don't even have qualifications and any guarantee, let alone a contract. If you choose them, don't participate in their high-priced self-funded projects, or something happens during the trip, they run faster than anyone else, and it is more difficult to find them. As long as you take the bait, you will eventually suffer. ?

Just to remind you:

And everything is nothing but the word "cheap". After tourists covet this kind of petty gain, they can't achieve the purpose of being greedy for petty gain, and all kinds of unpleasant events happen. When I go back, I will post posts like "Zhangjiajie people are liars" and "Zhangjiajie is a bandit's nest" on the Internet to vent my emotions. We understand your feelings very well, but what is more sad is: I am very sorry for all the losses you suffered in Zhangjiajie; I am sorry that your trip to Zhangjiajie was so unpleasant; It is sad that the mountains and waters of Zhangjiajie have been smeared for these reasons; I'm sorry you didn't choose us. Yes, any industry survives with profits, and we are no exception, but we will never make huge profits and spend absolutely transparently (you will know that our prices are very real when you compare with other travel agencies). I hope tourists like you will stop being greedy for cheap, because there is no such thing as a free lunch, and a very cheap lunch is definitely a trap for a scam package.
