2. The core scenic spot of Zhangjiajie is about 32 kilometers away from the urban area. How to get to the scenic spot after arriving in Zhangjiajie?

1. The train has arrived. After getting off the train, the new station square is very spacious, and there are many buses going to the city center. You can take bus No.6 and get off at a stop called Department Store, and then walk 1 minute to Zhangjiajie Central Bus Station. From there, you can take the shuttle bus to Wulingyuan and Zhangjiajie Forest Park. The shuttle bus fare is 10 yuan. You can also take a taxi directly from the railway station to Zhangjiajie bus terminal. The taxi fare is about 6 yuan, and then transfer to the shuttle bus. Visitors can contact the tour guide in advance, and they will pick you up at the station or airport, saving you a lot of things.

You can also take the airport free bus to the civil aviation hotel in the city, and then take a taxi to where you need it. At this time, take a taxi to the downtown bus stop, which is within the starting price. Taxi fares in urban areas generally do not exceed 15 yuan. If you take a taxi directly to the core scenic spot of Zhangjiajie, you can charter a car for about 100 yuan during the day and 150 yuan at night.

Three. Overview of Zhangjiajie Scenic Area

Zhangjiajie is a prefecture-level city, with two districts and two counties under its jurisdiction, namely Gigi Lai County and Sangzhi County, and the second district is Yongding County and Wulingyuan District. As Zhangjiajie National Forest Park is under the jurisdiction of Wulingyuan District, the full name of Zhangjiajie Wulingyuan core scenic spot has always been called Wulingyuan Scenic Spot, which is one of the first five scenic spots in China.

Wulingyuan Scenic Area is divided into several small parts, namely Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, Yuanjiajie, Yang Jiajie, Tian Zi and Suoxiyu. These five scenic spots are connected with each other. A general ticket is the pass type, with 245 yuan +3 yuan insurance, and it is valid to enter and leave the scenic spots several times in two days. There are no tickets in the park or in the park, but you need to buy tickets separately to take the cableway and elevator in the scenic spot. It is free to take an eco-car in the scenic spot (the cost is included in the ticket). Only when there are vacancies will the scenic spot stop at the roadside.

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park is divided into Huangshizhai, Jin Bianxi Yousuo and Yuanjiajie scenic spots, including the first bridge in the world, ecstasy table, back garden and other scenic spots. There is a famous Wulong Village in Yang Jiajie Scenic Area. Tianzi Mountain is the most vast, divided into the Grand View Platform, Xianren Bridge, One Step Difficult to Walk, Laowuchang, He Long Park and other boutique tourist routes. Suoxiyu is divided into Shili Gallery, Shuihuan Temple Gate and other tourist routes.

The core scenic spot of Wulingyuan in Zhangjiajie has a large area and complex terrain. The total area of the whole scenic spot is 298 square kilometers. Therefore, there are many scenic spots and different combinations of tourist routes.

From April 25, 2065438+00, the weekly ticket system was tried out in the core scenic spot of Wulingyuan, Zhangjiajie. Approved by the Provincial Price Bureau, the trial price of weekly ticket in Wulingyuan core scenic spot is 298 yuan/person. Visitors can enter and leave the core scenic spot of Wulingyuan within one week with a weekly ticket. The current price of the original "two-day, one-vote" ticket remains unchanged at 245 yuan/person. If tourists who buy tickets of "two-day, one-vote system" need to increase the number of days of tour, they can refer to the price of "weekly ticket" to make up the difference and extend the tour time to one week.

Zhangjiajie Wulingyuan core scenic spot has preferential ticket policies for special groups such as students, active servicemen, the disabled and the elderly over 70.

There is Tianmen Mountain Scenic Area in Zhangjiajie City (one-day tour): (258 yuan/person, including ropeway). It will be a pity not to go to Zhangjiajie. It is the earliest famous mountain in Zhangjiajie, with an altitude of 15 18.6 meters. It stands on the edge of Zhangjiajie, only 8 kilometers away from the urban area, and is one of the most representative natural landscapes in Zhangjiajie.

It has the longest ropeway in the world-Tianmenshan ropeway, which makes you really feel refined. There is the miracle of China highway-Panshan Road; Then climb 999 steps to the bottom of Tianmen cave. 1997 in may, the famous singer Li na climbed Tianmen mountain, as if inspired by the magical power in the dark, and suddenly converted to Buddhism, causing a sensation throughout the country.

Recently, Tianmen Mountain Scenic Area has been vigorously developed and constructed, and international large-scale activities have been frequent, forming a new humanistic atmosphere in the scenic area. 20 1 1 In the second half of the year, it was rated as a national 5A-level scenic spot.

The program is very popular with tourists and worth seeing.

4. Introduction to Eating and Living in Zhangjiajie

1. Zhangjiajie's special cuisine

Generally, the favorite thing for self-help tourists to go out is to taste local snacks, because there is plenty of time, which is why most people like to take the form of self-help travel now.

First of all, I recommend the special dish of Zhangjiajie-Three Gorges Pot. The so-called "three-mouth pot" is called hot pot in the local language.

Generally speaking, there are two ways. One is an instant griddle, which is made of three main ingredients and stewed in hot pot instead of soup. "Master Hu's three kitchens" is very representative. Usually, the price is not high, and the weight is enough to eat. It is suggested to stew dried rice rolls, dried walnut kernel and Xiangxi bacon together, and you can also order a sour radish while eating, which is crisp and sour; The other is a soup pot, where the chicken, duck, pig (sheep), dog (cow) and Tujia bacon are processed first, then the guests order good dishes and then mix them together for stew. When eating, they order lotus root, taro, potato, kelp and so on. Cooked with bone soup. That tastes so cool! I'll make you sweat! Sister Tang has three pots, which is very representative.

In many restaurants around the city, you can also eat small game: wild pork, eight-haired mice, muntjac meat, bacon, wild mushrooms, fir mushrooms and so on. We recommend local specialties: yellow meat and Miao sour meat.

2. Living in Zhangjiajie

(1) Accommodation in urban areas (including Wulingyuan District):

Stay in an ordinary hotel, 30-40/ person; If it is required to block the second high point, the two-star double standard is 50- 100 yuan/person; Samsung is in 150-300 yuan/room; Four stars in 280-400 yuan/room; 400 yuan/room with more than 5 stars, the price in other business hotels ranges from 100 to 600 yuan/room. In the urban area, the most concentrated hotels are Jiefang Road, Renmin Road, and near railway stations and bus stations.

The price of Gaoyun Village Villa in Wulingyuan District (Suoxiyu Town) is 60- 180 yuan/double standard room (according to the off-season, depending on the facilities and services).

(2) Accommodation around the scenic spot

There are also accommodations in towns and villages around the core scenic spot of Wulingyuan in Zhangjiajie, such as Zhonghu Village and Tianzishan Town. Although the township hotels around the mountain are not as good as those outside the scenic spot, living in and around the mountain can save a lot of time and avoid going back and forth to the scenic spot.

At present, there are still a few marginal places in Zhangjiajie Scenic Area, which have been transformed from the remaining farmhouses into family hotels, located in Yang Jiajie, Yuanjiajie and Daguan Platform. Due to various reasons, it is not included in the normal management, the facilities and services are not standardized, and the quality and tourism safety are not guaranteed. Although some guests like it, we don't recommend tourists to choose such a place to stay.
