Shijiazhuang to Luoyang, and then go on road trip in Xi 'an.

This year 1 1 month, I miss road trip more than ever. So my wife and I made a final decision three days later and went to Xi 'an. Because it is the first time to travel so far, I have no experience in driving, route, food and shelter. I want to find some help from the internet, but there are basically no posts that introduce the whole process. I asked a friend who had been to Xi 'an in advance for directions, and he gave me detailed instructions on how to get there. Although I have some information, I am still very nervous. I am worried that there are no gas stations in some sections, that there are too many eleven people to find a place to live, and that there is a traffic jam at high speed ... My wife is calmer than me. She said it was nothing. If you can't book a hotel, you can find a family hotel, and gas stations are everywhere. As long as there are many people in the scenic spot, I will watch the scenery less. Even so, because a family of three goes out to have children, they are always uneasy. The route is determined as follows: Shijiazhuang-Shanxi-Shaanxi-Henan-Shijiazhuang, which happens to be a circle. You can visit three provinces without going back. One day, I bought a navigator, a national tourist map, maps of different provinces in Shanxi, Shaanxi and Henan, bought 10 boxes of instant noodles and some fruits from the supermarket, and brought a lot of clothes, water cups for children and adults. There are a lot of things stuffed in the trunk of the car, which seems to be moving. Anyway, there is a car, not afraid.

I. Route

1, Shijiazhuang-Taiyuan

Take Beijing-Shijiazhuang Expressway from Yuhua East Road, drive south, reach the entrance of G5 Yin Qing Expressway, and then turn to Shitai Expressway. Shijiazhuang-Taiyuan Expressway and Beijing-Kunming Expressway are a expressway in this section. When you arrive in Yangquan, it is called "Taijiu Expressway". Go straight to Taiyuan Ring Expressway, and then get off according to the accommodation location. As a reminder, from June 8th, 10, the Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway will be widened and closed. Beijing-Shijiazhuang transfer to Qingdao Expressway, if there may be congestion during holidays, the Jingxing section of Shijiazhuang-Taiyuan Expressway is often blocked by traffic. There are also many cars in expressway around Taiyuan, which is prone to traffic jams. Taiyuan has two roads, inside and outside. It looks wide, but it's easy not to know how to get there. Stay in Taiyuan that night.

2. Taiyuan -Xi 'an

Take Tai Ring Expressway, turn to Linfen direction of G5 Yin Qing Expressway, and then turn to Linfen direction of G5 Jingkun Expressway. If you want to see Hukou Waterfall, after passing Linfen, turn to G22 Qinglan Expressway and head for Jixian County. (If you don't go to Hukou Waterfall, continue along the Beijing-Kunming Expressway, and then turn to Xiyu Expressway to get to Xi 'an. )

After seeing Hukou Waterfall, it is suggested to continue to take Qinglan Expressway to Yichuan, stop in Yichuan, then continue to take Qinglan Expressway to Fuxian, and take G65 Baomao Expressway (Huangyan Expressway) from Fuxian to Xi 'an. If you can live in Xi, you can live in Xi. If you can't live in Xi, you can live in Lintong. Anyway, you must go to the Terracotta Warriors.

3. From Xi 'an to Henan

If you go to Zhengzhou, take the G30 Lianhuo Expressway, which is very simple. If you still go to Luoyang, go to the mouth of Luoyang. You can stay one night. To go to Longmen Grottoes, you can go directly from the city. However, if you use the car navigation system, please note that if you enter "Longmen Grottoes", it will lead you to the family courtyard of Longmen Grottoes in the city, so you can find it by entering "Longmen Grottoes Scenic Area". When you return from Longmen Grottoes, you can take the Erguang Expressway, connect with Huo Expressway and continue to Zhengzhou.

4. Zhengzhou-Shijiazhuang

From Lianhuo Expressway to Zhengzhou, transfer to Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway and head for Shijiazhuang (Beijing). All the way.

Second, scenic spots

1, Taiyuan: Jinci, Hukou Waterfall, Yongji Pujiu Temple, Stork House (search for the navigation of Stork Garden).

2. Shaanxi: Because the road is tired, you can only play important scenic spots. You can go to the Drum Tower (or Bell Tower) in Xi. I suggest you go to only one, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. You can also go to the old city wall when you have time. If you stay in Xi for one night, you will leave for the Terracotta Warriors early the next morning, because there are many people during the holiday (it is recommended to stay in Lintong at night, because Lintong is still a little far from Xi 'an). If you want to change trains, you can go to the underground palace.

3. Henan: Longmen Grottoes in Luoyang

Third, snacks

We haven't eaten this, please add it. Tired every day (probably related to taking care of children), I have no energy to find snacks. You can try.

Fourth, summary.

1, route: The original five-day trip, because I don't want to drive more than four hours a day, so I stopped more, and I will come back for five and a half days. There are many special situations on the road, especially traffic jams and traffic accidents, so it is really helpful to have navigation in the car, although sometimes you can't find the place, or you will go in the wrong direction to Longmen Grottoes, and you can't find the stork building. Most of the situation is still very good. But sometimes I get confused when I get to Taiyuan. Personally, I think the roads in the city are a bit complicated. 2. Driving: I walked the mountain road for two nights, once from Hukou Waterfall to Yichuan and once from Lintong to Luoyang, which may take five hours, so if my driving skills are not very good, try not to drive at night. Also, my speed is basically above 140. If the speed is slow, it depends on the time to determine where to rest. But if you have a lot of rest, you must walk slowly. I found several blocking points, one is Jingxing section of Yin Qing Expressway, and the other is that there are more carts after entering Shaanxi boundary.

3. Go to the scenic spot. Time and physical strength should be considered when determining scenic spots. I saved Huashan this time because I was exhausted and didn't have enough time. Of course there are regrets. Longmen Grottoes require high physical strength, so everyone should be prepared. Other places don't take too many roads, and there is basically no problem. In addition, Xi 'an is a tourist hotspot, so you'd better get up early every morning to go to the scenic spot, or you won't find a parking place. Also, after arriving at the scenic spot, there are many temporary parking lots beckoning. Don't stop easily unless you go to the scenic spot a little late. If you go early, try to drive in, be closer to the scenic spot and save some energy.

4. Diet: Whether you eat local snacks or not, you should pay attention to hygiene, even if you eat instant noodles. In addition, going out to play will also get angry. Drink more water and eat more fruits. Drink as much hot water as possible and less cold water and mineral water. The driver should bring a cup in front of him to replenish hot water at any time.
