Who has a tour route of Zhangjiajie Phoenix to share?

Like us students, traveling abroad will be based on convenience and benefits, at least my trip is very satisfactory! For reference only, not afraid of making a fool of yourself! O(∩_∩)O~

This time, Xiao Liu traveled with two other male students. Knowing that Zhangjiajie began to implement preferential policies for students under the age of 24 in the core scenic spots last year, and Hunan people have never had time to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Zhangjiajie, we gladly chose Zhangjiajie as our travel destination. In addition, Fenghuang, a famous ancient town around Zhangjiajie, has often become a tourist attraction for travelers to visit Zhangjiajie. So in the end, we decided to travel to two places by ourselves, so we had a four-day and three-night self-help tour of Zhangjiajie Phoenix.

Before going out, we made a detailed study on self-help tour through Lvyou.com and other channels. In Zhangjiajie, we mainly struggled with the form of all-inclusive tour guides, or solved the problem of food, shelter and transportation by ourselves. In contrast, we think it is more cost-effective to do all-inclusive, and this is also the case. In Zhangjiajie Scenic Area, due to the environmental protection policy in recent years, there are no hotels in the strict sense, only inns run by local people themselves. Therefore, all-inclusive accommodation is generally arranged in the inn opened by the tour guide. After contacting several tour guides, we chose the tour guide in Chen Jiahui. From the beginning, I offered to meet us at Zhangjiajie Railway Station at 5 am. At present, the unified price of all-inclusive tour guides is 550 for an adult (including admission, accommodation for five days, two mornings and two nights, and an environmentally-friendly car). The transportation expenses outside the scenic spots of elevators and ropeways shall be borne by themselves). In Phoenix, we decided to find our own inn and only go to the ancient town where tickets are not charged. Because we found that many donkey friends who have been to Phoenix think that Miao Village and other charging parts are not worth seeing. The scenery of the ancient town is the essence of the phoenix.

About Phoenix's inns, the famous ones are Qinglan Inn and Good Time Inn. The beauty of highland barley lies in the beauty of the boss, Miss Ding Ding, and more importantly, the ingenious female boss's unique taste in inn decoration. We thought the room was not tense in the off-season, but we didn't expect highland barley to be full every day. This will be introduced in detail later.

On Sunday evening, we went to Zhangjiajie by train from Changsha. The ticket price is very cheap. 48 yuan has a hard seat, so you don't have to rush to book tickets in the off-season. We are worried about the thief in the car, but in fact, it seems unnecessary to worry. Generally, it is difficult for three people to travel together to become the target of pickpockets. All night, we talked and looked forward to our journey. After a 5-hour drive, we arrived at Zhangjiajie Railway Station around 5 am. Before, we all thought Zhangjiajie Railway Station might be bad. In fact, Zhangjiajie Railway Station is very small, but it is exquisite. It is understood that Zhangjiajie New Railway Station was newly built in early 2009.

We were arranged by a tour guide in Chen Jiahui. We took the first flight and arrived at the entrance of Suoxiyu in Wulingyuan Scenic Area at 7: 00. I want to explain here that the core scenic spot of Wulingyuan in Zhangjiajie is divided into five parts: Suoxiyu (Shili Gallery), Tian Zi, Forest Park (Jin Bianxi), Yuanjiajie and Yang Jiajie. Each part has an entrance. In Zhangjiajie, after purchasing tickets, if you leave the scenic spot, the tickets are valid for 3 days, which means that if you want to visit hotels outside the scenic spot many times, you must re-enter the scenic spot within 3 days at the longest. Because I heard that Huanglong Cave is a famous cave in China, we decided to visit Huanglong Cave first. Since Huanglong Cave is not a core scenic spot, these students have to pay. Student tickets are 45 each. I am proud of the negotiation skills of the three of us. I took a taxi from the core scenic spot to Huanglong Cave, but I just talked about 30 yuan. Yes, we arrived at Huanglong Cave after 7 o'clock and found that it didn't open until 8: 30, so we waited for nearly 1 hour. But our wait is worth it. We found that the biggest feature of Huanglong Cave is that the tour guides are quite young and beautiful girls with sweet voices and beautiful shapes. I won't make up the picture here, leave it to myself to enjoy. Huanglong Cave is 7.5 kilometers long, and it takes nearly 1.5 hours to complete the tour. It's really manual labor. But personal impression is not very deep.

The only thing that left an impression was the natural waterfall in the cave. Personally, I don't think it is as exquisite and beautiful as reed flute cave in Guilin.

Then we went back to the entrance of Suoxiyu. Tickets for Zhangjiajie scenic spot are still 248 yuan. When entering the scenic spot, all tourists are scanned for fingerprints at the entrance. Later, we discussed it for two reasons: first, it is more convenient and faster, especially for tourists who have entered the scenic spot many times; second, in case of accidental death of tourists in the scenic spot (usually found late in the mountains), then this fingerprint is a good identity authentication, but the real reason is unknown. We also appreciate the infrastructure construction of Zhangjiajie scenic spot. There are many environmental protection tour buses in it, which are free to ride after buying tickets, which is convenient for you to go from one scenic spot to another. In addition, the fence in the scenic area is perfect, which effectively guarantees the safety of tourists climbing, especially when tourists take pictures beside some cliffs.

The first place we visited was Shili Gallery in Suoxiyu. The natural scenery on both sides of Shilihe Valley constitutes a landscape ink painting in China. What really impressed me was the old man who collected medicine here and the book he read to Wang. In addition, many people say that there is no need to take a sightseeing train here, and walking is a good way to visit. But personally, we don't need to spend more than 1 hour to walk 6 miles in order to save the round-trip fare in 24 yuan (student preferential price), and the landscape features here don't seem wonderful. After visiting this place, I was really excited to learn that we were going up the mountain by Bailong elevator (we didn't go to Surabaya on the way because of time). Bailong elevator was built five years ago, which caused a lot of controversy. Because this elevator is built on a cliff, although it can be seen from below, the construction is undoubtedly the destruction of the natural landscape. After its completion, Bailong Elevator became a printing machine. The beautiful scenery you can see by elevator attracts thousands of tourists. When the elevator rises rapidly (more than 300 meters, 1 min 58 seconds), the scenery in front of you suddenly becomes clear, and at that moment you will only think of the word spectacular.

It was noon at that time, and we were led by the tour guide to a local farmhouse for dinner. Bacon, fungus, one soup ***2 meat, 2 dishes, 1, it's quite rich. When we learned that the similar meal next door was provided by their black-hearted tour guide 180, the three of us joked privately that the meal was worth 180, which was still ok. In fact, in mountainous areas, the price of farmhouse music is 28 to 80 yuan at most. After dinner, we started our journey again. On Monday afternoon, we visited Dianjiangtai and He Long Park in Tian Zi Scenic Area. On this high platform, the immortals stand on the mountain peak under the general's stage, opposite to the reviewing platform, and can overlook Huangshizhai from a distance.

He Long Park, a scenic spot, once triggered a dispute between Cili and Sangzhi counties. According to the tour guide, Sangzhi County built the statue of He Long (a great man in his hometown) as a landmark in order to finally own this scenic spot. The statue is about 3 meters high and the snow scene in winter is beautiful.

The two mountain views here, Xiansanhua and Yubi Peak, are even more unique. Yubifeng is the legendary place where Wang put his pen. Some people even say that you can't call Zhangjiajie if you haven't been to Yubi Peak. There are still some similarities. It will be night soon. Hui arranged for us to stay in their inn in Yuanjiajie. The environment of the inn is ok, and the service of the inn is ok. In addition, I especially want to praise Hui for her hospitality. If the weight is enough, it can be supplemented, so that you can eat quite full every time, which is much better than the three-person standard of 2 meat 1 vegetarian 1 soup agreed at the beginning.

The next morning, we got up early. Our trip was a difficult step in Tian Zi Scenic Area, Tian Zi Tower and Xianren Bridge. This is also the most dangerous place in Zhangjiajie Scenic Area. One-step scenic spot refers to a small cliff naturally formed between two mountains, which is more than 300 meters deep. From one side of the cliff to the other, you must jump over it in one step, and if you slip, you will fall into the abyss and die. In the 1990s, Professor Yang from Beijing Aerospace was killed on his way back because of freezing and sliding down a cliff. Now this dangerous place is equipped with steel pedals, and there is no danger.

I'm still scared when I stand on the steel pedal and take pictures.

Xianren Bridge is more dangerous. 1 m2 wide natural bridge deck, connecting two mountains. There is no protection by the bridge, and there is an abyss of more than 300 meters below. Once, a tourist took a photo, just took a step back and slipped into a deep valley. When it fell, it just broke the pine trees on the bridge. The stump of the pine tree is still by the bridge.

We didn't cross the bridge at that time. The difficulty is not to walk on the bridge deck, but to walk on the natural stone steps when getting off the bridge. It is not brave enough to think of the deep valley below.

In the afternoon, we visited Wulongzhai, which is famous for fighting bandits in Wulong Mountain Scenic Resort. The bandits in Xiangxi lived here in those days. There are three levels here, the first level is difficult, the second level is who dares not to bow, and the third level is to keep peace and one person. We entered the village by sedan chair, and it was very hard for the bearers to go down to the village. I think the most dangerous of the three levels is the difficulty of one step.

There was no guardrail built here before. The only way to pass is to have the courage to pull back from the brink. . . The scenery is very high. The height of the cottage has its own beautiful scenery of Tianbofu, but you must climb the ladder. Then we came to the world-famous No.1 Bridge in the world. Although there is no danger of Xianqiao, it has a unique flavor. A Gao Qiao naturally formed between two mountains, about 5 meters high. Compared with Xianren Bridge, it is magnificent. As the saying goes, after crossing the first bridge, you lived for 99 years. Wu Bangguo visited here, leaving behind a treasure trove of celebrities.

On the third day, we entered the last scenic spot in Zhangjiajie, Jin Bianxi. Jin Bianxi, with a total length of 7.5 kilometers, is surrounded by mountains and waters. More interestingly, after the Jiannanchun Winery sponsored the Jin Bianxi Tour in Zhangjiajie, pavilions were built at the upper, middle and lower positions for tourists to rest. Tourists often play in Jin Bianxi. Jin Bianxi Scenic Area provides tourists with a pure spring, named Changsheng Spring. In addition, Jin Bianxi is also the gathering place of wild monkeys in Zhangjiajie. If you are not careful, the food in your plastic bag will become their target.

In this way, the journey of Zhangjiajie is over, and the overall situation is good. 9 points for the scenery and 9 points for the tour guide.

After the trip to Zhangjiajie, we took a long-distance bus to Phoenix at 3: 30 in the afternoon, and the fare was 65. There are not many trains from Zhangjiajie to Fenghuang, which usually leave at 2: 30. When we arrived in Phoenix New Town, it was really a sea of people, and it was very lively. This taxi to the old city, that is, the ancient town, only needs the starting price of 4 yuan, but we are afraid that the taxi driver will deliberately go the wrong way, and simply say that 5 yuan will go to Hongqiao without taximeter. In the ancient town, it was full of freshness at first. Only then did we find that those waters and neighborhoods were vaguely the phoenix in our dreams, but those people were gone. Things are different. . . The night in Fenghuang ancient town is noisy. At the door of every bar, young ladies are attracting guests. At the moment, we stopped by the river to find peace. Finally, I saw a milk tea shop called Occasional Milk Tea. The owner is an old and beautiful post-90s girl. The decoration of the tea shop is all stickers that tourists hang at will. Write down your mood casually, meet Phoenix and meet milk tea.

We wanted to spend the night in highland barley, but we didn't expect highland barley to have a low season. Its reputation on the Internet has attracted a steady stream of tourists. Finally, we randomly selected a Linjiang Inn. The off-season is the Linjiang price in 50 yuan, not to mention the price.

However, I didn't expect to meet again in Phoenix the next day. I specially selected several small shops with phoenix characteristics from the evening. The first one is a small shop in Hongqiao, which can carve ornaments of ox bones, the second one is grandma Hongqiao's flowers, and the third one is the wax soul DIY batik shop where highland barley goes out. The fourth is the Mi Hotel opposite Shen Congwen's former residence. We met the legendary bearded boss and the legendary Phoenix lettering master in a small shop. He told us that I only stay in Phoenix for a few days a year, which shows how lucky we are.

More interestingly, when we arrived at the wax soul shop, we met Wang Yao, a folk artist from Phoenix, who entertained a fellow villager in Changsha with local dishes and wine. The Changsha eldest brother also hit it off with us, so we sat together, drinking and eating meat, talking about the phoenix and art. After a while, we felt that Wang Yao was really a perceptual phoenix man, with a real temperament and no affectation. From him, I vaguely felt the simple folk customs of the ancient town people in those days, and felt that this phoenix still had some gains. .

It is very convenient to take a long-distance bus back to Changsha from Fenghuang, and there are many trains. The price is generally 130 yuan. You can make a reservation at the Phoenix Hotel.

During the whole trip, each of us spent about 1 100 yuan. Self-help tour is still a good choice, happy and affordable.
