Fenghuang ancient city travel guide, who can introduce the self-help travel guide of Fenghuang ancient city?

1. Travel route

It is recommended to take the train and choose the direction of Jishou (if you don't go to Jishou, you can take Changsha to transfer). The journey takes about 7 to 8 hours.

Maybe you can meet some local friends and classmates in Jishou on the train, and you can consult some ways to save money on a relatively long train, so you won't be too blind. Generally, they are quite enthusiastic ~ ~

Special recommendation: Generally, Miao girls can be seen in Jishou Railway Station. They are dressed in bright colors and greet guests with Miao drums. They are from Dehang Scenic Area. The performance at the railway station is free. You can enjoy it for a while.

After arriving at Jishou Railway Station, you can see China-Pakistan direct flights to Deutsche Bahn or Phoenix. The fare to Phoenix is about 15 yuan, 1 hour. Although it is an asphalt road, it is also around the mountain. The scenery along the way is charming ~ ~ It's very good for friends who just came to the countryside from the city ~ If you feel tired, you can take a nap in the car!

2. Local accommodation

There are many diaojiao buildings near Tuojiang River. In order to see the night view of Tuojiang River at night, you can stay there, about 70-80 yuan for one night (low season). You can't see anything cheaper in Tuojiang, so you can ask around, but there are generally no single rooms at home, all of which are 2-3 beds, 20-30 yuan/bed, with air conditioning (the boss will charge extra for air conditioning, please discuss in advance) and a separate bathroom. It is recommended to compare several companies before making a decision. House prices will rise on holidays or weekends, so be prepared. If you are a friend who is far away from home, it is best to book in advance to avoid the situation of no accommodation.

Generally, it is very cheap to eat in small shops. You can have a bowl of rice noodles in 3 yuan for breakfast, and special dishes such as stewed duck with blood and pickled fish hot pot are more expensive, which is 28-35 yuan. See what kind of restaurant you eat in.

Special snacks include sour radish, social food, tung leaf Baba, snail and bean jelly. Hongqiao night market is very good, friends who like barbecue can try it ~ There are many varieties, mutton skewers or beef skewers are five yuan each (pocket-sized), and the taste is very punctual.

Visit scenic spots

4-5 yuan can buy a Phoenix tourist map "Roaming Phoenix" in Phoenix, and ask the boss to stamp several commemorative medals for you (be sure to indicate that it is different, otherwise he will stamp the same for you). Then you can take it everywhere. Don't lose that map, it is also a good souvenir to take back. You can look at the information provided above. Introduce food and shelter.

You can buy a package ticket to visit the ancient city or take a one-day tour of the local travel agency. (Note: Visiting the ancient city of Fenghuang is free, and only tickets are needed to visit the eight and ten scenic spots of Fenghuang. There are two packages, Phoenix Eight Scenes Package: including Shen Congwen's former residence, Xiong Xiling's former residence, Yangjia Ancestral Hall, Dongmen Tower, boating on the Tuojiang River, the second floor of Hongqiao, Chongde Hall and Wanshou Palace. Ticket price 138 yuan/person. Ten Scenes of Phoenix: On the basis of the Eight Scenes of Phoenix, the Great Wall of South China, Qiliangdong in Tang Dynasty and Huangsiqiao Ancient City have been added. The fare is 2 16 yuan/person. Remember, the eight scenic spots and ten scenic spots of Phoenix can enjoy a half-price discount with the student ID card. In addition, don't go to the ancient city of Huangsiqiao in the Ten Scenes. Although it has certain value, it is not well managed now, and it will be very disappointing to go. ) Some paid attractions are not necessarily worth seeing. It is recommended not to buy a package and transfer it yourself. The ancient city is so big that you can walk around casually, and there is no guide who always urges you to hurry up.

There will be many people dragging you to take pictures in Miao costumes in Tiaoyan. Just rent clothes and take photos of yourself for 2-3 yuan (if you are good at bargaining, one yuan is ok ~). If they take pictures, 5 yuan/Zhang. It is suggested that friends with cameras take photos by themselves after bargaining. There is no limit to the number of photos ~ take as many as you want ~ haha ~

The second floor of Hongqiao is a teahouse, which is a good place to enjoy the scenery.

There are two sections for boating in Tuojiang River. The travel company's boat journey is from Tiaoyan to Shen Congwen Cemetery, and you can buy tickets at the North Gate Tower (Tiaoyan). Although the trip is short, it is the most intense part of Xiangxi. Take a private boat from Shen Congwen Cemetery to Taohua Island (a newly-opened tourist spot, you need tickets to 20 yuan, where there are many peach trees, and you can watch and participate in Miao folk performances), 7-8 yuan/person. The river is shallow, so you can experience the feeling of rowing with paddles. You can also ask the boatman to sing a folk song or sing with tourists from other boats. In summer, people between ships will also have water wars, so we should be fully prepared for protection!

There are many privately developed Miao villages around, with uneven quality. It's good to go there and experience the customs of Miao village. Recommended: Laozhai, Duluo Village and Jiang Shan Miao Village. There are many ticket agents in the city, and you can bargain with them.

In the evening, you can also buy a few dollars of wishing lamps on the edge of Tuojiang River and put them in the river to make your good wishes (every time I see the cleaners salvaging the "wreckage" of wishing lamps in the morning, I find this wonderful activity quite frustrating and destructive to the environment). If you want to try the bar style, there are many bars along the Tuojiang River. Find someone who feels good and go in. There will be a party in the city in the evening, around 60 yuan.

go shopping

Generally speaking, there are batik and embroidery, silver ornaments (both worn and decorated), bone carvings, root carvings, pyrography, sand paintings, and many books and postcards describing Xiangxi.

I have eaten ginger candy (the ginger candy made by Zheng 'an is really good, but the price is a little more expensive than other places, because people are famous brands, hehe), kinked candy, dried kiwi fruit, social food and sour radish. By the way, the best sour radish is near the Xiangxi food store I will talk about next. I envy the staff here. You can eat such delicious food and bargain if possible ~

Drink by the catty, and then buy other utensils (such as gourd or bamboo tube). Kiwifruit wine is a kind of fruit wine with a little wine flavor. The taste is evaluated according to personal preference, and there is rice wine, which tastes good ~ ~

I also know a store that sells authentic Xiangxi cuisine, bacon and bacon-flavored cooked food. I never knew bacon could be eaten like this. Dice the bacon and stir-fry it in Wugang, Hunan and Jiangxi. You have a good appetite after dinner. Their shop can also taste delicious food for free. Wow, wow, ...................................... Oh, I almost forgot. Their store is hard to find, and I specially wrote down their store name, called Songgui Square. Near Zhu Rongji's inscription "Phoenix", there is a small door, but when you walk in, it suddenly becomes clear. The manager told me that they opened a shop on Taobao, and they won the double crown in one year, and all of them were college students. If you are interested, you can also search online, which is cheaper than the physical store. They also have wine from Xiangxi, gourds and bamboo tubes. (If you like wine containers, such as gourds and bamboo tubes, you can also sprinkle coke on the manager. He is very kind and will definitely give you one, not your money. )

5. What you need to bring

Needless to say, personal belongings, cash (there are few places where you can swipe your card), camera, toiletries, and clothes change. When summer comes, you still have to take an umbrella, and the rain in the mountain city will continue to rain. There are also skin care products with sunscreen (boys should take it to see you).

I'll arrange the rest myself, and the expenses of Phoenix (including the basic six items of food, housing, entertainment) are probably enough (certainly not the top consumption level).

Supplement:

Day 1: In Fenghuang County, there is a bus to Qiliangdong, one in 5 yuan, which is a typical karst landform, and a ticket to Qiliangdong, 40 yuan, with a voucher of half price; You can swim in half a day.

The next day: Huangsiqiao Ancient City, South Great Wall, Camus Style Village and Grand Canyon. These places are on the same line and can be arranged together. If there are many people, chartered cars are more cost-effective. There are also free guides and discounted tickets. Locals can buy it. 100 yuan/time, one way. Phoenix chartered just left, regardless of coming back. Ticket details: Huangsiqiao Ancient City, Camus Style Village Package 60 yuan/person; South Great Wall 30 yuan/people (not much to see); The Grand Canyon is free, and the general fare is 45 yuan/person.

Day 3: One-day tour of the ancient city. Fenghuang Ancient City Wall, Yufeng Bridge, Shen Congwen Square, Shen Congwen's former residence, Xiong Xiling's former residence, Yangjia Ancestral Hall, Dongmen Tower, Tuojiang River Rafting, Hongqiao Art Building, Wanshou Palace, Chongde Hall and Ancient City Museum are within walking distance, and others need to take a boat to reach the scenic spots. Wooden boat 20 yuan/man. The basic cost is not high.

The morning in the ancient city is beautiful. You can get up in the morning and go to Tuojiang to feel that feeling. The night in Tuojiang River is beautiful, especially in summer. It's cool to sit by the Tuojiang River and have a barbecue and a cold drink. It is best to visit the ancient city from dusk. The vendors are all out, and the things are very special and cheap.
