In March, where is Shandong suitable for traveling?

Travel Notes and Raiders of Five-day Tour from Shenyang to Jinan, Qufu and Taishan

Since I tasted the sweetness of self-help tour, I don't want to be bound by group tour any more. In fact, I originally planned to go to Hainan again this winter vacation, but I didn't expect the land price, house price and air ticket price there to skyrocket as soon as the idea of an international tourist island was put forward. In short, everything that can rise has gone up. The words "sky-high hotel" frequently come to my eyes. As I have no money, I'm worried that crowding around will ruin my holiday interest. I discussed it with my husband and decided to go to Qilu. Another reason for choosing Shandong can reflect how dedicated I am, hehe:) There are two courses in the textbook, which are related to Mount Tai and "Three Holes" respectively, so this is also to better cooperate with teaching.

Day 1 day Shenyang-Jinan

Take the D 164 bullet train from Shenyang North Station at 7: 5 in the morning (at present, there is only one bullet train from Shenyang to Jinan, which is very convenient), stop at Jinzhou, Huludao, Tangshan and Tianjin, and arrive at Jinan Station at 14: 50 in the afternoon, with a total time of ***6 hours and 59 minutes, which is faster than ordinary trains. You can buy a return ticket at Shenyang North Railway Station, and you have to pay 5 yuan's handling fee for each ticket. It is recommended to buy a return ticket to avoid trouble.

I took a taxi to the North Station in the morning, just got on the taxi, and suddenly remembered that I forgot to bring the dry food supplies I needed on the road, so I went to Tesco in vain and made careful purchases. What a fool! My husband said, I just love those two big oranges. It's stuffy in the carriage. How nice it is to have fruit to eat! I can't help it I ate a box lunch for 35 yuan, which was super bad. The most cost 10 yuan, huge profits!

At 2: 50 pm, the train arrived at the station on time. Jinan is much warmer than Shenyang, which reminds me of Winter in Jinan written by Mr. Lao She-for a person who is used to living in Beiping, like me, it is a miracle that it doesn't blow in winter; There is no wind in winter in Jinan. For a person who has just returned from London, it is strange that I can't see the sun in winter; Jinan is sunny in winter. Naturally, in tropical places, the sun is always so poisonous, so loud and a little scary. However, in winter in the north of China, and the weather is warm and sunny, Jinan is really a treasure. "

I made a reservation at Hanting Hotel in E Long (you can also call 4008-121-1). The location is very good, just opposite the railway station and next to the long-distance bus station, so it is absolutely convenient to travel. Room rate 170 yuan. The room is spacious and comfortable. The most important thing is to be clean and feel warm. After checking in, my husband and I took a taxi to quancheng square. I read in someone else's guide that I can take bus No.3, but I can't find it. ) The starting price of a taxi in Jinan is 6.5, and it is about 8.5 to quancheng square. If you have fifty cents, you'd better give it to the driver, otherwise most of it will be rounded off (only one driver of several taxis in Jinan offered to give us fifty cents). Quancheng square is rectangular, much bigger than Shenyang Municipal Government Square. There are many white pigeons scattered in the square. Although it is very lively, the sanitary conditions in the places where pigeons gather are really flattering. The west side of the square faces the east gate of Baotuquan Park. As it is getting late, we are going to appreciate the charm of this "the first spring in the world" on the day of departure. There is a river along the road. The river is crystal clear. I wonder if it's spring water! After I left quancheng square, I inquired all the way and finally found Furong Street (not far, about 10 minutes' walk) mentioned in other people's raiders. Furong Street is a long and narrow alley with antique architecture, which brings together snacks from many parts of the country, such as hot and sour noodles, rice noodles, Chinese hamburger, mutton kebabs, duck blood vermicelli and so on. There are also small shops selling durian cakes on the street, which cost 3 or 5 yuan each, much more than what I ate in Shenzhen. It's crispy and delicious when it comes out of the oven, and the unique smell of durian spreads all over every taste bud on your tongue. But when you come to Shandong, of course, you should try the famous Shandong cuisine! Huixianlou in Furong Street is a good choice. There are many awards and certificates hanging in the shop. My husband and I ordered a famous Shandong dish-Jiu Zhuan Da Chang (38 yuan), as well as stir-fried dishes (12 yuan), lion's head (one from 4 yuan), noodles with noodles (5 yuan) and rice, making it 62 yuan. Originally, I didn't eat intestines and stomach, but the nine-turn large intestine here is very special, sweet and sour, tender outside and tender inside, fat but not greasy. I recommend you to try! However, I haven't eaten any snacks like oil-swirling scorpions that I saw in other people's raiders before. The night scene of Furong Street is very interesting, with red lanterns everywhere, bustling crowds and a strong Shandong accent. ...

After eating and drinking, my husband and I took a taxi back to the hotel. The driver I met was not authentic. Maybe he was worried about how bad the car in front of the station was, so he dropped us at an intersection and said we arrived ahead. Unfortunately, my husband and I are strangers. We searched for it for a long time and walked a long way before we went back. Fortunately, we caught up with Country Love.

The next day Jinan-Qufu-Taian

The schedule was a little tight that day, so I got up early and had a buffet breakfast in Hanting, 15 yuan/person, not bad, and I was very full. Take a taxi (9 yuan) to Jinan coach station after dinner. I would like to remind you that there is no direct bus to Qufu at the coach station opposite the railway station. The conductor will tell you to take a bus to Jining (Qufu is a county-level city in Jining). Don't do this at Qufu intersection, because the expressway intersection is far from Qufu city! Taking a taxi will at least black 30 yuan money! The bus fare from Jinan to Qufu is 43 yuan, which takes about 2 hours. I've seen it in other people's raiders before. When I got to the bus station, I turned a corner and arrived at the Confucius Temple. But now things have changed. A new long-distance bus station has been built in Qufu, 5 kilometers away from Confucius Temple. When you get off the bus, many taxis will come up to solicit business. You can bargain with him 10 yuan to go to the Confucius Temple. Drivers on the road will constantly advise you to charter a car and take you around Qufu for 60 yuan, and strongly recommend modern buildings such as Confucius Six Arts City and Confucius Institute to you, just to earn a commission on tickets, so everyone must stick to it. My husband and I clearly told the driver that we only went to the Confucius Temple, but even so, he deliberately made a big detour and dragged us to the front of the Confucius Institute. Seeing that we were unmoved, we reluctantly drove to the Confucius Temple.

It was already noon when I got off the bus, and my husband insisted on eating when he saw a restaurant on the roadside. The aunt who greeted the business was very polite. There is a big banner hanging on the door of the shop, saying that she is the 75th generation descendant of Confucius, and she is the same generation as Kong Xiangxi. I don't know if it's true or not, hehe:) I ordered two Confucian dishes, one is tofu (15) and the other is poetic ginkgo (we hesitated, but the boss said we could order half of it, 20 yuan), but to be honest. After eating, I can't wait to witness the grandeur of Xingtan and Dacheng Hall. "Three Holes" coupon 150 yuan, and a ticket to the Champion Pavilion is also presented. If you buy them separately, you can get one each for Confucius Temple 80, Confucius House 40 and Confucius Forest 40, and the student ID card can be half price. I brought my ID card, tour guide card, teacher's card, postgraduate card (expired) and undergraduate student card (fake, sorry) when I went out this time. I will use any one! I won't say much about "three holes" Search online and you will know, and there will be a very detailed introduction. There are many tour guides in front of the Confucius Temple, some with certificates and some without. They will take the initiative to ask you if you need a tour guide service. At first I thought they were just trying to make money, so I ignored them. Later, on the way to visit, I occasionally heard their explanations, which was quite vivid. The cost can be discussed with them. It should not be too expensive. When I went, the sleeping halls in the Temple of the Holy Trace and Confucius Temple were being repaired, but I didn't see them. What a pity! I spent 2 yuan to buy a black and white picture of St. relic, like an old picture book, and I like it very much! After visiting the Confucius Temple, go out from the door of the poetry hall on the right and you will find Confucius. There are so many people in Confucius that it is absolutely impossible to take pictures of yourself at the gate. It seems that my husband and I are not quite right in thinking that "the sword is on the side of the front"! Come out from the back door of Confucius House and go straight to the intersection. It is the champion pavilion. What are the most interesting exhibits in the exhibition hall? Hehe, it is a "big copy" used by ancient candidates to cheat. It's really because it's too big, and the coat and boots are covered with fine print. It is really not easy!

Out of the Champion Pavilion, there are still about three miles from Kong Lin, and you can take a tricycle (5 yuan, no bargaining). You can also take a carriage, which is a unique scenery in Qufu! There is a large area in Kong Lin with battery cars, and 20 yuan is a bit expensive for everyone. Because my husband and I are going back to Tai 'an, we just visited the cemetery of Confucius and his eldest son and grandson on foot, which is also the essence of the whole Confucius forest, and we can also see the tears monument in Zigong on the way.

From the beginning, Hua 20 yuan took a private car to the coach station, bought a ticket to Tai 'an (23 yuan), and finally arrived in Tai 'an at 6 o'clock. 6 yuan took a taxi to the second shop of Longtan Road, a home inn booked in advance. When I checked the budget hotels in Tai 'an online before, I saw that Luco 88 Hotel was recommended, and there were special rooms in 88 yuan. But when I called to make a reservation, the front desk said that it could only be booked 1 2 days in advance, and the number of special rooms was limited, so it was difficult to book. Other rooms1above 38 yuan. So to be on the safe side, I booked the Home Inn in E Long. Room rate 15 1 yuan. Dinner is at the rice noodle shop on the left-hand side of the hotel. It's not delicious at all, it's much more expensive than Shenyang's! I went to three cities this day. After dinner, I bought some dry food for climbing the mountain tomorrow, and I hurried back to my room. After washing, I continued to wait and watch "Country Love". Surrounded by Shandong accent for two days, it is also a pleasure to hear pure Northeast dialect.

Climbing Mount Tai on the third day

In order to watch the sunset and sunrise, my husband and I have decided to stay at the top of the mountain for one night, so we slept until we woke up naturally this morning. Although I woke up naturally, I got up after 7 o'clock. After eating the breakfast buffet at home, I embarked on a journey to climb the mountain. After leaving the hotel, walk right for about 10 minutes, and you can reach the parking lot of Tianwai Village. There are many small shops selling high fragrance along the way, and the price is much cheaper than that on the mountain. My husband and I are atheists, so naturally these burdens are less, hehe:) Of course, we can also take the No.3 bus with two stops (the fare is one yuan) or take a taxi (the starting price is 6 yuan). However, it is recommended to take a walk, so that you can enjoy the warm sunshine in the morning and breathe fresh air!

Buy tickets for Mount Tai and Zhongtianmen at the ticket office in the parking lot. Tickets 125 yuan, one-way 30 yuan. The off-season of Mount Tai lasts only three months from June 165438+ 10 to June 65438+ 10, and the fare is cheaper than that in the peak season. 20 yuan. My teacher's card came in handy this time, but only 20 yuan was saved. There are many scenic spots from the foot of the mountain to Zhongtianmen, such as Stone Valley, Doudou Palace and Hutian Pavilion. But it's a long way. It takes about 25 minutes to drive along Panshan Road. If you walk, you will have great physical strength, and it will be even harder to climb up. So I had to reluctantly give up what I loved and leave my strength in the eighteenth set. In fact, if you don't want to get tired, you can take the cableway directly (one way 80, round trip 140) to Nantianmen, and it can be done in 10 minutes. But in my opinion, since climbing a mountain means hard work, only in this way can we experience the joy after climbing the summit! My husband and I stopped all the way, took photos and ate something. It took about three hours and finally arrived at the worse gate. 18 group of more than 6000 steps is definitely a test of physical strength and perseverance!

I looked up some information about Daiding accommodation on the Internet before. Considering that there should be many rooms this season, I think I will make a field trip and decide where to live. Magic Hotel is the only three-star hotel on the mountain. My husband and I discussed that if it is around 300, we will throw caution to the wind. Unexpectedly, the receptionist politely introduced that the standard room for bathing is 900 and the room for bathing is 600. I was dumbfounded when I heard it. I stole a look at the price list. If I am not mistaken, the presidential set is 18800. So, my husband and I looked at each other and said calmly, we just came up to ask if there is a room, hehe:) The accommodation in this season is very poor, and probably no one can take a bath except the magic hotel. Because of the low temperature, the water pipes are frozen and the bathroom in the room can't be used. The 24-hour hot water advertised by each family is just thermos water. In contrast, my husband and I finally chose to stay at the Sunview Peak Hotel, which is close to Sunview Peak. This is the guest house of Tai 'an Meteorological Bureau. The staff was very nice and showed us the "room where our director stayed when he came"-Yuqiju. The room is not bad, one big bed, two thick quilts, and most importantly, the newly installed air conditioner! Finally, we cut the house price to 300 yuan, which was a bit expensive, but I wasn't cold that night. Nothing is more important than this for me who is super afraid of the cold! After settling down, my husband and I watched the sunset, which is one of the four wonders of Mount Tai! Sure enough, but if there is a sea of clouds, the scenery will be more spectacular Dinner was eaten in the restaurant of the hotel. The young man who cooks is quite simple and honest, wearing a pair of glasses, not much like a chef. Compared with Huangshan Mountain, the price of vegetables here is much more affordable, and my husband and I didn't order anything expensive, such as scrambled eggs with green onions (20) and spicy shredded potatoes (12). The staple food is pancakes and steamed bread. At night, the wind at the top of the mountain is very strong, and it is even worse at night. The ghost cries wolf! It's not easy for the staff of the Meteorological Bureau to stay at least a week before going down to rest!

Day 4 Taian-Jinan

As the saying goes, the moon comes first when the water is near, so the night before, we invited the master of the Observatory to help us predict the weather the next day. Master is very professional. After checking the satellite cloud pictures and other charts on the computer, he clearly told my husband and me that we could see the sunrise at 6: 45. Excited ... in order to witness this spectacle and to be worthy of this 300 yuan, my husband and I set an alarm clock and get up at 6 o'clock. In fact, the open space in the backyard of the hotel is an ideal place to watch the sun. The disadvantage is that the wind there is too strong! The stationmaster of the Observatory told us that the equipment would be blown down when the wind was strong. It takes three to five minutes to walk from the hotel to reach the Sun Peak (Shenqi Hotel has no advantage in this regard). When my husband and I arrived, there were already some people. You can rent military coats at the top of the mountain, new 20, old 10. My husband and I are both wearing mountaineering clothes, and we don't feel cold. In fact, the sunrise is very short. Just stick to it. The clothes there are quite dirty! In our earnest hope, the sun finally jumped out of the horizon just after 6: 45. What a spectacular scene! It was a flash in the pan, and it hung high in the sky in a few minutes, dazzling!

After enjoying the wonders of Mount Tai again, my husband and I packed our bags and prepared to go down the mountain. Because we have to go to Daimiao and go back to Jinan, we decided to take the cableway to Zhongtianmen first, and then take the bus to the foot of the mountain. In this way, the original hard downhill has become extremely easy. After going down the mountain, take bus No.3 at Tianwaicun Square and get off at Daimiao (1 *** 10 stop). Go straight ahead, then turn right, and you will see Dai Temple. Tickets are 20, and teachers' cards are half price 10 yuan. This time, my husband's work permit was finally recognized! Looking at the Wufeng Tower on Zhengyangmen, I suddenly remembered the news that the ancient building in Zhengding, Hebei Province was destroyed by fire last night due to fireworks. I can't help feeling very sorry! Dai Temple has a lot to see, because I knew there was a hibiscus stone and a cypress in front of the Tiangong before, so I also wanted to try my luck. After several turns around the hibiscus stone, I walked to Cooper with my eyes closed. I clearly feel that I am walking in a straight line, but I still walk to the left. After being corrected by my husband, I barely felt "blessed"! Tiantai Pavilion is known as one of the three halls in the East. The other two are the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Forbidden City in Beijing and Dacheng Hall in the Confucius Temple. During this trip to Shandong, I saw Tiantai Hall and Dacheng Hall with my own eyes, which was quite satisfactory. You need to wear a pair of shoes to enter the Heavenly Palace, each Shuang Yi dollar, mainly to protect the magnificent and exquisite "miracle return of Mount Tai" in the temple. For the same purpose, photographs are not allowed in temples.

The fly in the ointment is that in order to welcome the Lantern Festival, many lanterns were arranged in the whole scenic spot, which seriously damaged the overall atmosphere of Dai Temple. After the tour, I had lunch in a fast food restaurant opposite Dai Temple, which was a bit like the city express. My husband and I asked for two dishes, two meals and a striking cup, and then I spent 24 yuan. I'm full! Then I took a taxi to Tai 'an coach station (which seems to be the starting price) and bought a ticket to Jinan (22 yuan). Conveniently, the terminal can choose the bus station opposite the railway station, so that you can get off and stay at Hanting Hotel. Dinner is the original cup of steamed rice next to the hotel, which is delicious. You can also get a cup of hot soybean milk for free with Hanting's room card.

Day 5 Jinan-Shenyang

The departure time of the return D 162 bullet train is 3: 00 pm15, so my husband and I have enough time to visit Baotu Spring. Baotu Spring tickets to 40 yuan are not good for foreign tourists. Personally, I think it's a little expensive. However, "you can't travel until you reach Baotu Spring in Jinan", so Baotu Spring must not be missed! Baotu Spring is the main landscape of the park. Spring water gushed out of three streams from the ground, and the spring water was crystal clear. There are railings around the spring, overlooking the three springs spewing in the pool. There are more than 30 famous springs near Baotu Spring, such as Jinxianquan, Shuyuanquan, Xibo Spring, Liuxuquan, Huanghua Spring, Dukangquan and Bailongquan, which constitute Baotu Spring Group. The scenery in the garden is still good, and it will be more refreshing in spring. The spring water in the garden can be touched or tasted.

After coming out of Baotu Spring, my husband and I came to Furong Street again, and we got to know each other this time. In another restaurant, I ordered another signature dish of Shandong cuisine-fried kidney flower. The taste here is really not as authentic as Huixian Building. It tastes salty and sour, but it just happens to catch up with the rice mouth, and there are quite a lot of people. Take a taxi back to the hotel after dinner, have a rest at the front desk, take your luggage, cross the road and you can get into the station. After 7 hours' drive, I finally returned to my warm home in Shenyang, ending my pleasant five-day tour!

The above is a detailed record of my Qilu cultural trip, and I hope it will be helpful for everyone to travel. I have also referred to many netizens' raiders before, and I would like to thank you!
