I recommend Fenghuang Ancient Town:
Traffic guide
1. Go to Jishou by train. It takes 25 hours from Beijing to Jishou, and about 70 minutes by car to Fenghuang, from 6 am to 8 pm.
2. Go to Huaihua by train. It takes 20 hours from Beijing to Huaihua, and the last bus to Phoenix at 6 o'clock can only be caught at around 4: 30 pm.
3. Take the inter-provincial shuttle bus from Tongren, Guizhou to Jishou or Huaihua, and get off at Fenghuang. There are not many trains.
You can get off at Zhangjiajie Lotus Airport by plane, and then take the train to Jishou.
I suggest you go to Tuojiang in the old city to find a family hotel with local characteristics, which has good sanitary conditions, convenient bathing and low price. It is your first choice for accommodation. The price of family hotels in Golden Week is around 40-50 yuan/bed, and 20 yuan/bed at ordinary times.
The passes for eight scenic spots, namely Phoenix South Great Wall, Qiliangdong, Huangsiqiao Ancient City, Tuojiang River boating, Shen Congwen's former residence, Xiong Xiling's former residence, Yangjia Ancestral Temple and Dongmen Gate Tower, are 160 yuan/person. Students can enjoy a 10% discount when purchasing a pass.
1. Shen Congwen's cemetery is a must, and the shock it brought me simply made me dumbfounded.
2. Boating on the Tuojiang River: Seeing all the aquatic plants dancing in the river, each of us wants to be an aquatic plant in the Tuojiang River. You can't get close to Phoenix until you cross the Tuojiang River. You can go to Peach Blossom Island. March should be the most beautiful.
3. Miao Village: The most primitive distance from us is the most remote and mysterious amorous feelings. Recommended Miao Village: Jiang Shan Miao Village, Guliang Miao Village and Duluogu Village.
4. Qiliangdong: Qiliangqiao Township, located in the north of the ancient city, five kilometers away from the city. The mouth of the cave, like Longkou, is more than 50 meters high and 20 meters wide. It is famous for its four characteristics: beauty and quietness.
5. Market: the most lively and comprehensive market. Handicrafts on a street in the ancient city are very cheap here. Performance dates of Allah, La 'er Mountain and Jiang Jiaping: the second and seventh day of the lunar calendar; Sanshan, Yanzi Biandanping, the third and eighth day of the lunar calendar; Heku, Shuidatian, Qiangongping, Mujiangping I and VI; Yellow River, Xinchang, Mayong four, nine; There are five or ten Jixin, Tea Farm, Guanzhuang, Lin Liang and ebb well. (that is, the second day, seventh day, twelfth day, seventeenth day, twelfth day and twenty-seventh day of the lunar calendar are the days of commemoration)
6. Huangsiqiao Ancient City: It is the best preserved ancient barracks of Stone Town in China.
7. Fengyang Opera and Tang Nuo Opera: Tang Nuo Opera is an ancient and primitive drama offering sacrifices to gods, and it is a dance to exorcise diseases and evil spirits and pray for Naji. It is the oldest and most primitive drama of Phoenix. Yang Opera is a local opera with national characteristics. Its singing is simple and rough, with lively rhythm, plain local spoken language and humorous plot.
I have been to Zhouzhuang, which is too commercialized and has lost its true colors. Not as good as Phoenix.
