Phoenix Self-guided Tour Guide

(1) Fenghuang Ancient City is divided into five major scenic spots:

Old City Scenic Spots:

The scope is centered on the ancient city. Stretching from Hongqiao to the east, Yannao City to the south, Pochiping to the west, and Tuojiang River to the north, covering an area of ??1 square kilometer, it is the most prosperous and prosperous area in Fenghuang with the largest number of ancient and modern buildings, and is also the "heart" of Fenghuang County. The ancient city has a history of more than a thousand years and has formed many places of interest. This is the "throat of Qianchu", with an important strategic position and has always been an important border town. After the middle of the Qing Dynasty, military and political officials stationed in "Zhenbian", "Tunbian" and "Suibian" were followed by literary and political officials, as well as poets and poets. Following this, a great deal of construction work was carried out. Each building is exquisitely designed, with brackets and cornices, dragons, phoenixes, and gold lacquer paintings. Due to the needs of the ruler's strategy, there are more temples and ancestral halls in Phoenix than in other places. And most of them are concentrated in the ancient city. Therefore, the ancient city is known as the "glorious palace". The ancient city is surrounded by charming green hills and is half the city of Athens. The beautiful and natural scenery of the entire ancient city is endless.

Nanhua Mountain Scenic Area:

The entire scenic area is covered with green hills and green trees. In the morning, the mist is green, and in the evening, the setting sun is purple. When the rain comes, the ink is splashed, and the smoke is scattered. Light makeup and heavy makeup are suitable for rain or shine. The scenic spot includes three major sceneries: "Nanhua Greenery", "Lanjing Woodcutter Song", and "Mountain Temple Morning Bell". In short, the Nanhua Mountain Scenic Area is: winding through layers of forest roads, surrounded by snail buns and green mountains, suitable for both sunny and rainy days, so you can enjoy the beautiful scenery carefully.

Shawan Scenic Area:

The center of the scenic area is Shawan. It includes five of the eight major scenic spots in the past: Dongling Yinghui, Longtan Cooking and Fishing Fire, Fange Huitao, Xiqiao Night Moon, and Qifeng Tall and Beautiful. It is known as "Langyuan". Here, there is a bend of green water, surrounded by green mountains, nunneries, pavilions, monasteries, temples, pavilions, platforms, buildings and pavilions dotted here and there. Classical and modern buildings are interspersed and matched, making it unique. The mountains are green and the rain cannot wash them away, and the sound of birds is carried by the wind.

Qiliang Cave Scenic Area:

5 kilometers away from the county seat. It has the characteristics of strange, beautiful, quiet and steep. It is a peak-cluster-valley landform dominated by dissolution, and the ancient and modern wonders of heaven and earth are dissolved into one cave.

Huangsiqiao Ancient City Scenic Area:

In Miao District, 25 kilometers away from the county seat, there is a complete stone city. The city site is located among the green trees and rocks in Huangsiqiao Village. It is a famous scenic spot and an ancient battlefield site where "host and guest competed" and the swords met. The ancient city was first established during the Chui Gong period of the Tang Dynasty. It was renovated and repaired in the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. Today the ancient city is intact and standing majestically. The 10-meter-high brick and wood-structured city towers are all designed in the Qing Dynasty, with algae reliefs, flying eaves and raised pavilions. They are majestic. Ancient barracks made of bluestone and adobe bricks still exist. The ancient city stands tall on the edge of Chu, overlooking Qianchuan River. There are scenes in the scenery, scenery outside the scenery, scenery and scenery are connected, and there are scenery everywhere, building the entire Fenghuang County into a unique and picturesque "painting town" in Fengjing.

(3) Accommodation:

< p>Accommodation in Phoenix is ??divided into hotels and family hotels. Hotels: Nanhua Hotel and Holiday Hotel in the center of the city are pretty good. You can go to the Education Hotel, Xinhua Hotel, or Gucheng Hotel on the big roundabout. For family hotels, I recommend Linshui Residence next to the north gate and Tian Xingshu's former residence on the old street. Each has its own characteristics. The price of a hotel is usually about 50 yuan/person/day (double room), and the price of a family hotel is 20 yuan/person/bed. Of course, you can also ask us to help you decide:). (I made an online booking tool, you can take a look and upload it in a few days). At the entrance of the old street, there is a big sign listing all the hotels in Phoenix. If you don’t want to see the hotel’s phone number and beds, you can go there and see for yourself.

(4) Eat: Phoenix people are delicious, so they eat a lot.

Snacks include pickled radish and ginger candies, as well as the night market in the evening. The most delicious pickled radish is at the stall at the entrance of Wenchangge Primary School. For ginger candies, I went to the one at the end of the alley where Shen Congwen’s former residence was located. I’ve been eating their ginger candies since I was a child, so my teeth always hurt.

Restaurants: There are two on the old street. Fangzheng Restaurant, the Old Street Restaurant below, the Grand Turnpan Ancient City Hotel, and the fresh fish shop below. I recommend Fangzheng Restaurant because you can meet some of the old calligraphers, painters, and folk artists in Phoenix from time to time, and listen to them talk about Phoenix.
