Matters needing attention in May Day tourism

At present, most scenic spots in Zhangjiajie adopt the mode of booking tickets in real-name registration system. If you want to visit, you must arrange tickets in advance, especially Tianmen Mountain and Glass Bridge Scenic Area. Daily reception is limited, and tickets are often sold out.

Accommodation will be tight during May Day, but Zhangjiajie scenic area is scattered, so you can't book hotels blindly. Otherwise, the hotel and itinerary booked are wrong, and you may have to go back. It is recommended to plan ahead.

The most interesting and quintessential scenic spot in Zhangjiajie is the Forest Park, with a relatively large area. I suggest you play for two days. If you have two days, you can go directly to the forest park. If you have three days, you can choose one of the Grand Canyon, Glass Bridge, Tianmen Mountain and Glass Plank Road. The time to visit these two scenic spots is one day, but you don't have to go to both. You can choose one.

The diet in the scenic spot is more expensive, so it is recommended to bring some meat snacks to satisfy your appetite.

On the way to Zhangjiajie, whether by car or by train, you may meet people who introduce Zhangjiajie actively. For example, the fake traffic police ask you to bring friends or relatives back to Zhangjiajie, or tell you which four-star and five-star hotels are cheap. There may be some people from hotels or tourist service centers on the train to give them travel advice. And at the exit, someone said that ten dollars can take you to the scenic spot to take a taxi. Ignore these, it's all a scam.

Hotels in Zhangjiajie do not provide toiletries, so you should prepare them yourself.

Don't go to some small shops to sign up for a two-day tour, or a three-day tour that only costs three or four hundred yuan, because such a cheap tour will cost more later.

There are many Panshan highways in Xiangxi mountain area of Zhangjiajie, and the urban planning is not perfect, so there will be fewer parking spaces. So I suggest you don't drive to the scenic spot by yourself. You can park your car in the city and drive yourself.

Remember to bring sunscreen and mosquito repellent in summer, and prepare some simple disinfection drugs, such as band-AIDS, anti-inflammatory tablets and anti-leakage tablets.

(to prevent acclimatization). Shoes had better be ready.

It is best for several people to travel together, so that the cost of renting a car can be shared and they can take care of each other.

Remember to bring your ID card when you go out. Tickets for Zhangjiajie scenic spot need ID cards. Friends who buy discount tickets remember to bring relevant documents.

There are many cable cars in Tianmen Mountain, Glass Bridge and Forest Park. Pay attention to tourists with heart disease and high blood pressure or tourists with too many pins when riding. Don't stick any part of your body out of the car after getting on the bus. If the cable car stops in an emergency due to power failure, voltage instability, mechanical failure of the cable car or thunder, please keep calm and wait for the staff to take measures.

Don't miss the details of the food. The local food is mainly sour and spicy, so you should pay attention to those who can't eat spicy food.

Zhangjiajie scenic spot is mostly a mountain view, and smoking is not allowed in other places except the designated places in the scenic spot. Was found to be fined 200.

There will be many monkeys in the forest park. Don't tease them at will, avoid scratching the scenic spots, and try not to mention plastic bags. There may be monkeys coming to grab it.

Zhangjiajie developed late, and there is a big gap between hotel standards and big cities. At present, in response to the national environmental protection number, Zhangjiajie Hotel no longer provides free toiletries, so please prepare them yourself in advance.

Autumn is the time when kiwifruit, oranges and other fruits are ripe.

Zhangjiajie has frequent showers in July every year. When it rains, the mountain roads will be slippery and there will be fog in the mountains. Therefore, when climbing a mountain, we must pay attention to the fact that one or two hours after the rain is the best time to travel in Zhangjiajie. At this time, you can see the smog, like a fairyland. If the sun comes out of the fog, you can also see the mountains looming in the fog. Sometimes it snows in Zhangjiajie in winter, but the infrastructure construction of the scenic spot is relatively perfect and the mountain will not be closed. However, the mountains in Zhangjiajie are generally above 1000 meters above sea level, so the climate on the mountains is relatively cold after snow.
