Before driving:

This year's Spring Festival is really a bit special and scary. Due to the impact of the new coronavirus, there are really few opportunities to go out. Fortunately, I was able to have such an idea for a self-driving tour before the Spring Festival and put it into action.

The company issued the Spring Festival holiday notice very early in advance. We had a holiday early and started the holiday on the 16th. Thinking that it would be difficult to stay at home all the time during the long holidays, it was time to take my mother on a trip every year. I made a large number of self-guided tour guides to Thailand and Bangkok. I always felt that my English was poor, and it was quite dangerous to take my mother and children abroad. Especially for someone who longed for leisurely travel and was obsessed with road travel, I struggled for many days. I still think it's good to travel by car. My friend's hometown is Yiyang Anhua, Hunan, so let's go! There is just no need to plan too much routes and go as you say. Thanks for meeting you!

Day 1: Guangzhou-Changsha Road

Departure time: At 9:00 a.m., four seniors and one junior set off in a car.

We are also people with small plans. If we want to go straight to Changsha, the drivers will still be tired. The original intention of our self-driving is to travel leisurely, why make it so tiring? Let's stop for one night. I want to go to Shaoguan for a night in the hot spring, which is just right, and you can soak away all your fatigue. Later, I thought about it and I would have to drive such a long journey the next day. Let's go to Xiaodongjiang in Chenzhou to have a look. Forget it, 5 days is still relatively tight (My man only has five days of annual leave, so it doesn't seem very possible to want to take a leisurely trip)

As we set off all the way to our destination, we stopped and stopped at the service station along the way, and found that there was already a little traffic jam on the highway that was about to enter the Spring Festival. My man said, Let's go straight to Changsha tonight. I don't want to jam the car for another day tomorrow. Well, whoever holds the steering wheel has the final say. Drivers who don't feel tired and drivers don't seem to have the right to say tiring...

Someone was in the driver's seat from 9:00 in the morning until around 23:00. It was a great feeling! After arriving at the hotel, he said directly, okay, you take care of the rest, I'm going to bed. Then he turned around and made a snoring sound.

Twenty minutes before arriving at my destination, I booked the Home Inn Piper Cloud Hotel in Changsha. I really felt that the environment was average, the smell was strong, and the sanitation was average. The queen bed room I stayed in was also fine. It would be better than the standard double room, but it still doesn't recommend it.

I thought I would encounter rainy days, so I was grateful for the weather.

Because the highways along the way are relatively congested, in addition to experiencing temperature changes on the original road, we basically spent the first day on the road and at the service station. It needs to be mentioned here that we really don't eat the buffet at the service station. After eating, we will either have diarrhea or stomach pain, and we strongly do not recommend it.

Day 2:1-day tour in Changsha (Attractions: Taiping Old Street-Wenheyou Small Market in Hisense Square-Yuelu Mountain)

This is my second time in Changsha. The last time I came to Changsha was just passing by to find delicious food. I remember eating stinky tofu all day long.

During this one-day leisurely tour in Changsha, it can be said that our stay is relatively central to the city. It's great to have friends from Hunan here!

After checking out from the hotel, we found a breakfast shop along the way and ate Changsha specialty rice noodles. We wanted to eat flat rice noodles, but later we heard a friend say that Hunan rice noodles with round rice noodles were the specialty. In the end, we chose the right one. It tasted delicious!

After breakfast, head down the road in the direction of Wuyi Square, take a walk, and then take tourist photos. It's so good to have a leisurely time!

Along the way, you can see Changsha Milk Tea Tea, Yanyuese and Wenheyou Stinky Tofu. They are indeed Changsha's Internet celebrity check-in shops. It is no exaggeration to say that when you come down the road, you feel that there are one every 1000 meters, and there must be Wenheyou Stinky Tofu next to tea Yanyuese. I don't understand this model very well.

Because I had just eaten breakfast, I couldn't drink tea anymore. I found a shop along the way and ordered a serving of stinky tofu. As expected, I didn't feel like stinky tofu was delicious when I came to Changsha. Don't ask me why I didn't eat Wenheyou's stinky tofu, because we were going to Wenheyou, a place where Internet celebrities check in, to eat it, wahahaha...

Roche stinky tofu, recommended, delicious, remember to eat it with sauce.

Along the way, we also went to Taiping Old Street. The drunkards were already attracted by the wine shop at the door before they even started shopping. Don't laugh and get drunk with a drop. They tasted the lychee wine. The entrance was good, and we also bought a high-temperature wine of more than 50 degrees. Fortunately, we knew there was still a whole day to go, so it was not good to get drunk early in the morning.

Don't laugh, a drop enters your soul! worth recommending

When they were tasting and buying wine, I found that there was a very sensory photo spot in the small wine shop. I still need to discover beauty while playing.

Walking and patting is also a different kind of fun.

I met my favorite Luffy.

I prefer to walk in deserted alleys and feel more local.

The whole street has a very modern atmosphere, but it is still worth recommending. There will be many small shops in it and it is also a good photo destination. If you think it is worth taking pictures, you can stroll around one by one. However, our ultimate goal is to walk directly to Hisense Square. Eat at Wenheyou Small Market.

Wenheyou Small Market, there are really many people. After we gathered with friends, we found that we needed to queue up for a number. However, we didn't wait long and forgot about it in about a few minutes. Walking along the way, the decoration style of the Republic of China was very felt. It can be said that we have traveled through.

It's a pity that we didn't shop carefully, because there were really many shops inside that were worth checking in. There were many small shops inside, all of which were independently opened and had 6 floors. This time, it was purely for food and a rough look. After watching it, I left a regret that I would go over and check in detail next time. It was also a pity.

Although winter is off-season, there are still many people during meal time.

I ate a lot of delicious food

Strongly recommend beef. It's delicious, but unfortunately the portions are a little small.

These jelly noodles are not bad either. I can actually accept them because I don't like sweets. The most special thing is that it will taste like wind oil.

I really only took photos of this because I don't like to eat snails very much, but they reported that they were delicious and delicious.

Personally, I don't have any feelings for crayfish, but others say it's delicious, so we only dare to order slightly spicy food.

This chicken claw is delicious, recommendation index 5 stars

Delicious, recommend 3 stars, but it is too hot and I dare not eat too much.

When we arrived at Yuelu Mountain, we considered the time and the relationship between the elderly and children, and thought about taking the cable car up and down the mountain, but found that it was indeed a bit late. There was only the cable car up the mountain. We just didn't expect the cable car to be completely naked and suspended in the air. It's okay for adults, but if the child (3 years old) hangs in the air like this, if his hands really slipped or he moved around, he would be a little scared. Moreover, when he saw a young child moving around on the return journey, In order to attract his attention, the mother took out her phone and said,"Let's take a selfie," and then quieted down...

It was a romantic cable car suitable for couples to ride. It was also wonderful to think about it at the time.

Compared with the safety of children, it is recommended that children should walk there if they are not at ease.

The scenery on the top of the mountain is really beautiful, and the people I meet are also very beautiful. I don't know which small shop has a small brother and tourists who meet enthusiastic introduction when ordering tea and beautiful colors. Life everywhere is a beautiful start.

oh! Yes, we finally taste the tea. It's delicious!

Life is always full of regrets to have the motivation to continue next time. When I was going down the mountain, I wanted to say that I would take the slide! What a pity, the staff are all off work and can only walk down the mountain.

Unfortunately, I couldn't experience the slide I photographed down on the cable car, so I'll leave it for next time.

I originally thought of going to Yuelu Academy, but time was really tight. In the end, I didn't choose to give up and went straight to the place where I had an appointment for dinner.

Thanks to our friends in Changsha, we can taste the authentic flavor of Changsha. If we went by ourselves, we would never have imagined that we would have eaten such delicious food in a restaurant that didn't look like a restaurant at all.

This yellow-bone fish is recommended by 5 stars

The pot below is mutton. The stew is delicious and has no mutton taste at all. 5-star recommendation

Do you think those are potatoes down there? No, it's Hunan specialty, rice tofu.

I forget the name of the one below. It seems to be tofu.

I really want to learn the taste of this pork ribs steamed bean drum. It's really delicious and delivers rice well.

Listening to friends chatting about the past and small interesting things in their private bar at night is also a kind of enjoyment of memories.

I had to complain about Changsha's Didi here, and I felt speechless. Considering that we were too tired, we took a taxi back to the hotel in advance. Unexpectedly, when we got down, we found that the Didi Car had automatically cancelled the order. We were also drunk. In the cold wind of the night, I finally got the taxi again, which was also a speechless experience. Sometimes life is like this. Everything is full of surprises.

I went to Changsha twice, but I didn't visit Juzizhou in the end. I look forward to going again next time!

Day 3: Changsha-Anhua (Attractions: Glass Bridge-Haohan Bay)

There is still a little traffic jam during the Spring Festival. It is already past lunch time when we arrive in Anhua County from Changsha. Thank you to our friend and second sister-in-law for their warm reception, allowing us to enjoy a delicious lunch.

I forgot to take many dishes, but only took this one. I guess I was hungry.

When we were on the highway in Changsha, a little incident occurred. Because we could not sense the Yuetong card, we did not record the vehicle information during customs clearance. We ran back to the toll station to get the card again... It was the first time I was running on the highway and I was very excited to think about it. (After many days, I was still fined 6 points, 200 yuan, when I found it parked in the emergency lane)

At the beginning of Anhua, the river scenery along the road looked a little simple and touching, natural and fresh. Along the way, friends even stopped in front of the dam and introduced us with poor guide language (there really needs to be applause here). Dam attractions, if you didn't stop and didn't visit in person, you wouldn't be able to experience the spectacle and touching no matter what.

Floating in the river and beside the small river, the tranquility and comfort are unmatched in large cities. Looking at the river scenery on both sides, I have to admire it. It is not inferior to Yangshuo's mountains and rivers.

Because my friend helped arrange accommodation on Yuntai Mountain, on the way up the mountain, I finally realized that my friend said that the road was not easy to walk at night and I had to go early. Indeed, the rugged mountain roads require caution during the day, and the danger is even more dangerous at night.

When we arrived at the accommodation place, everyone exclaimed "praise, praise, praise." I could deeply appreciate the hospitality of Hunan people when I stayed at the hotel.

The entire Yuntai Mountain is a scenic spot. Although some are under development, perhaps in the off-season, and there are not many tourists, the overall experience is still very good. I always like scenic spots that are not yet very commercial.

It was almost 5 o'clock when I arrived at the hotel. I thought the glass bridge was nearby, so I would go and have a look. I never expected it! I was really lucky enough to have the honor to go up and walk it before closing. Thank you for meeting me.

After dinner, take advantage of the night to digest digestion. We walked to the Haohan Bay Scenic Spot. The entire attraction was full of dolls and the lights were gorgeous. From a distance, it seems very scary, because there are too many puppets of the 108 Hero, and they are silent...

I cooked 5 dishes for dinner. I couldn't eat them. It was really too much. I felt wasted and ashamed.

Places to stroll around at night.

When I reached the highest tower, I saw the falling icicles. I realized the difference in temperature difference between the mountain and the foot of the mountain.

Day 4: Anhua (Attraction: Zhenwu Ancient Temple-Tea Garden)

When the sun slipped in quietly, Little Lucky sounded in our ears, and the weather made us a little excited.

Because the entire staff of Yuntai Mountain was going to attend the annual meeting on this day, the cableway was closed, so we had to drive back and park the car at another entrance where we saw the archway, and then walk up the stairs.

It's really a lucky day. The suspended cable car allows us to experience different beautiful scenery along the way. This journey will make you love life more and the ubiquitous surprises more.

Fortunately, the annual meeting of Yuntai Mountain allowed us to encounter beautiful scenery that we could easily take, which was so beautiful! A casual pat leaves behind beautiful memories.

If you want to walk up the mountain, it is recommended to go out early in the morning and go up the mountain before 9 o'clock, otherwise you will not be able to enjoy such a beautiful scenery.

As we walked down the road, the sound of ice melting, ticking, knocking on the joy in my heart.

The next attraction is the tea garden. I wanted to go and taste the aroma of tea first, but I forgot that no one was left behind at the annual meeting. I could only find the entrance to the tea garden with regret and admire the beauty of the tea garden in winter.

Tea Pulse on the Cloud·Wonderland Tiancheng

The beauty that cannot be expressed with photos is tightly imprinted in my mind, waiting for the arrival of spring.

Looking into the distance, I always feel moved.

Being in the middle of the tea tree, I dreamed of becoming the tea picking girl.

The trip to Anhua gained beautiful scenery and enthusiasm at the same time! Thank you for receiving authentic Anhua black tea and Anhua local chili sauce and fermented bean curd.

At 16:00 p.m. that day, we set out and rushed to a hotel near Chenzhou Dongjiang Scenic Area overnight. We still booked in Vienna, feeling that it would be more reliable.

Day 5: Chenzhou-Guangzhou (Attraction: Dongjiang Scenic Area)

There are different package tickets for entering Dongjiang Scenic Area. We chose Premium Route 2, which includes a round-trip route to Tucita Island by car and boat;

It has always been said that only by visiting Xiaodongjiang in summer can you appreciate the most beautiful river fog color. The beauty of Xiaodongjiang in winter also has its unique existence.

There are few people who like this off-season, but they have leisure time!

There is never a lack of beauty, but there is a lack of mentality to discover beauty.

In addition to the beautiful scenery, what surprised me the most was the fish in Dongjiang. The food beyond words made the tip of my tongue dance. We packed some back when we left.

There is really nothing to say about the Dongjiang Scenic Area. It is beautiful and beautiful. While talking to oneself along the way, there will also be staff who will come to talk to each other enthusiastically and give guidance. This is also what makes me admire.

The only thing I felt was that the round-trip boats were not arranged reasonably. Maybe it was because of the off-season, there were few tourists, and there were no clear instructions on the place to return to the boat. We really rushed there. If we didn't catch the 1:30 boat, we had to take the 16:30 boat...

When you come to Xiaodongjiang, you have never been to Xiaodongjiang before without tasting one fish and five meals! How to put it, I mainly look forward to the raw fish part, which is very chewy and refreshing...

I ordered rainbow trout, but later I heard that I shouldn't eat freshwater fish... but it's really delicious.

The return trip is about 15:00 in the afternoon, and we will arrive in Guangzhou at about 20:00. I have forgotten the details

I am grateful for the hospitality of friends from all walks of the way for a trip that is just as I say.

On the road, you will always encounter all kinds of touching touches, all kinds of surprises, and all kinds of people. This is the simple meaning of travel.
