Chengdu, Chongqing

July 31st to August 8th (I didn't play on August 8th, it was a morning flight)
Weather:
Because I went in summer, I can refer to the things mentioned in my travelogue if I went in summer.
cost:
The cost of plane tickets, accommodation, scenic spot tickets, and various miscellaneous expenses is about 3500-4000 yuan (I'm not good at math, I don't want to calculate it. The main reason is that the plane tickets I bought were too expensive, costing over 1000 yuan, because I made a last-minute decision. Actually, other aspects of the money are very cost-effective)

DAY1
On the morning of July 31st, the flight scheduled for 9:45 was delayed to 11 due to air traffic control, and arrived at Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport at 13:10.
Then take the airport shuttle bus (8 yuan) to Dongfu Square (which happens to be Line 2), then take the subway (2 yuan) to Dongmen Daqiao Station, and walk for 10 minutes to reach the hotel.
I heard from others before that Chengdu and Chongqing are super hot, but when we arrived, there was light rain and sometimes it didn't even rain. The weather was unusually cool, haha, very comfortable!!
Around 3:30 pm, we were planning to stroll through Kuanzhai Alley (I personally think Kuanzhai Alley is too dark during the day, but the lights are too dim at night). When we went there that day, there were very few people and it was very comfortable.
【 Tips: There are three alleys and three vertical lines on the map, with a total of six entrances. Everyone must remember which entrance the traffic was at when you came, and you need to walk back to visit the scenic spots. 】 We didn't remember at the time, but later we went out at another entrance. It was too dark, so we turned back and took a taxi back to the hotel.
We found a delicious three ear hotpot in the alley, accompanied by the melodious sound of the zither, enjoying dinner very comfortably.
get accommodation:
Chengdu wren humanistic boutique hotel
The architectural style of the hotel is also a combination of movement and stillness, with "movement" being created in every detail of the hotel decoration. Birds come into view as soon as they enter the hotel's long corridor, and throughout the guest rooms, bird shaped decorations echo the hotel's name - the wren;
Quiet "falls in the antique courtyard with green and black bricks and tiles, where every blade of grass and every tree is serene, and every bamboo and table is elegant. Each guest room here has its own poetic and picturesque name, as if it is full of life and vitality!
The breakfast is also very warm. When checking in, the butler will inquire about the dining time and taste preferences, which is very thoughtful. You can choose Chinese and Western food, and also pair it with fruits, dried fruits, and various pastries, which are delivered to the room by the butler! Full of love.
Living here is truly leisurely and comfortable, embracing this beautiful scenery alone and enjoying the carefree fun!!
DAY2
In the morning, we took a leisurely nap and left the hotel after 9 o'clock. We bought breakfast at the supermarket downstairs, with a focus on drinking the Chengdu yogurt that we had been longing for. It's worth recommending.
Take a bus to Wuhou Temple, and the place where you get off the bus is Wuhou Temple. (The ticket seller won't come to see your student ID! You just need to tell him to buy the student ticket price, you understand! But of course, it's best to have a clear conscience, in case he gets caught, right? It's embarrassing.).
Drunken in Love, Wuhou Temple of the Three Kingdoms
At noon, I was also hungry. At that time, I happened to go to Jinli Street for dinner. After admiring the Wuhou Temple, you would walk to a very large and wide flat ground. It seemed like there were exits on both your left and right hands. Walking through the exit on the right, you would see many people,
That's right, this is Jinli. As soon as we step out of the exit, we'll head towards the nearby direction. Is it close enough
I hadn't even realized when I came out yet, so I thought how could there be so many people and so much food. Halfway through, I realized it was actually Jinli. I fainted, it was too much. However, Jinli is so much more than one person!!!!!!!!!!!
We ate all the snacks that Chengdu should have eaten, except for those with strong flavors. The snacks there are very delicious. I'm going to poison.ha-ha. After walking out of Jinli, there happened to be a station across from us because we were all a bit tired from walking, so we went back to the hotel and slept for a while. It's strange to say that I feel tired just walking that little. I don't look like me, I lack exercise. I went to eat something near Chunxi Road in the evening and then strolled around Chunxi Road. There's nothing to talk about in the commercial street. The day has come to an end.
DAY3
One day tour of Qingcheng Mountain
We originally planned to go to Qingcheng Mountain the next day because we saw the weather forecast that it would rain, so we changed to the third day. Hey, first roast, the scenery is really good, but half a day is not enough, and I mean the back mountain!!!
[tips: If some people want to play Dujiangyan Irrigation Project and Qingcheng Mountain in one day, they should go to the front of Qingcheng Mountain. It must be a day in the back of the mountain, otherwise it will be super fast, too cruel]
The best way to play in these scenic areas is to slow down, breathe the fresh air there, and leisurely.
Some people may ask, why do I go to those scenic spots all day long? There's nothing I can do, because I love mountains, water, and other scenic places. I like to blend in with nature, so I'm not afraid of the fatigue of climbing mountains, haha. That's why I'm a tearful person.
Listen to me slowly. First of all, there are 15 yuan trains from Chengdu to Qingcheng Mountain. We set 6:53 at that time. We thought it was too early, but this was the best time for us, who were on a tight schedule. Then we arrived at the railway station in Qingcheng Mountain. After leaving the station (just one exit), we walked to the left. There was 101 bus to Qianshan, minibus to Houshan, and Dujiangyan Irrigation Project. All these cars are in one place with clear signs and instructions, so you can rest assured. At the same time, you will see some people, just follow them and walk together. But you will encounter many private car drivers who attract customers, just ignore them. It's quite convenient, the good thing is that the traffic there is very clear and not chaotic at all! When you get on the minibus, you can leave when the number of people is full. It costs 13 yuan per person. In addition, those who want to return to Chengdu on the same day should pay attention to the time when the next minibus returns to Qingcheng Mountain Railway Station, and it should be connected with the time of the train ticket you bought. After arriving at the mountain, buy tickets. If you want to buy tickets at discounted prices, he wants to see! of
【 Tips: Then the key is to book your outbound tickets a few days in advance (don't hesitate). Don't expect to book them on the same day, they are all fully booked, especially for the flights between 7 pm and 10 pm. You can often check the 12306 website and other websites that display balance tickets, so that you can have a clear idea. 】
During the journey, I walked into Feiquan Gou, not Wulong Gou! After entering the gate of Qingcheng Mountain, the entire scenic area is a circular road, starting and ending at Tai'an Ancient Town. To the right is Feiquan Gou, and to the left is Wulong Gou. See where you want to enter. I personally don't think it's necessary to climb to the top unless you enjoy being abused and there's nothing to watch. It is worth noting that everyone should carefully read the small map on the ticket, or do their homework in advance. If someone is unwilling to take the cableway, they must carefully read the black line on the map, which is about to reach Cuiying Lake (insert a sentence, there is a lake here, you must take a boat, 2 yuan per person, it feels good). You need to find this road, walk to another village, and then go down (in the direction of Wulonggou). Don't miss the black line, I will miss it, and later I can only climb higher and higher... High.... High.... In the end, I could only take the cableway for 45 yuan per person, and there was nothing to see on it. I was really tired when I climbed up, it was too high. If you enter from Feiquan Gou, the upward path is very steep!!, So people who enter and exit Feilonggou from Wulonggou should pay attention to safety. It takes a long time to walk in the scenic area.. Long... Long..., We are in a hurry again and exhausted. Leaving Wulonggou, we happened to see a 5-yuan scenic car heading to Tai'an Ancient Town. Without hesitation, there is still some distance to travel, so friends who are tired from walking can consider it.
Roast: After leaving the gate of the back mountain of Qingcheng, I will complain, because our later schedule limits us to take the minibus to Qingcheng Mountain Railway Station at 12:30 on time, because we have to catch the 13:53 train. It was originally more than enough! But I never expected that it would take an hour and a half to get back after spending 30 minutes on the way here!!!!! The road is congested, like a snail crawling, because on a very narrow road, there are many tourist buses! Drive in, we have to give way if we want to go out. Secondly, there are many farmhouses and private cars along the roadside!! Stop and ask, some feel unsatisfied after driving in, and then pour it out to continue searching! I'm going crazy, it's no wonder it's not blocked like this!!! In addition, many people drive in the morning and arrive at the scenic spot at noon, so I missed my scheduled flight beautifully
[tips: Then tell everyone, if you can't catch the train, it doesn't matter, because you can also transfer. You can take the train to Xipu first, and then take the subway line 2 Xipu Start Station to the downtown area of Chengdu. Hahaha, the total ticket price is cheaper than that of 15 yuan. If it's not easy, you can take a bus for more than 2 hours to return to the downtown area of Chengdu for more than 20 yuan, or take a bus to Dujiangyan Irrigation Project after the train.]
I took the 18:58 high-speed train to Chongqing and stayed at my relatives' house. My classmate has something to attend to and has returned to Shanghai.
DAY4
Take the earliest 8:04-K train of the day from Chongqing Railway Station and arrive at Wulong Railway Station around 10:15 pm (it seems that the last train back to Chongqing is before 5:00 pm in the evening, please pay attention to the time), preparing to go to Wulong Bus Station.
【 Tip: Don't take a taxi, because it won't take you to the bus station at all. Don't look at other people's online posts that say it's 4 yuan to get to the bus station, nonsense!! The driver thinks it's too close and won't pay attention to you, and it's the same when they come back, so don't waste time unless you plan to take it directly from Wulong Railway Station to Xiannv Town. Carpooling with more people will be cheaper, with an average of about 25 yuan per person. We walked directly from the train station to the bus station, thinking it was a long walk, but it's actually okay, 10 minutes. 】
Then I bought a ticket for 8 yuan per person to go to Xiannv Town, where there are minibuses to Xiannv Town (tourist center) and directly to Xiannv Mountain, so I need to figure out whether you are a town or a mountain. The ticket seller will ask you when buying the ticket. There are many people waiting in line for the bus, and the schedule is very slow, so when one person buys a ticket, the other person can queue up. We didn't go to Fairy Mountain to join in the fun this time. It's said that there are too many people and the hotel is fully booked. We arrived at Xiannv Town in about half an hour.
Our hotel is located right next to the tourist center, super, super close. It's a villa complex with a beautiful environment, and most importantly, it's close to the center. That's why I chose his home.
In addition, there are many restaurants next to the villa complex. After we arrived at the hotel at noon and had some casual food, we went to the tourist center to buy tickets for Tiansheng Sanqiao,
This white pointed place is the tourist center
【 Tips: If you are an adult, it is recommended that you book your ticket on Ctrip 3 hours in advance, as it can be cheaper by more than 10 yuan. If you are a student, it is also convenient to buy it on-site, and the ticket seller does not look at your student ID, you understand. Haha. 】
After we bought the tickets (the scenic spot ticket includes the scenic spot transfer bus), we walked downstairs and the transfer bus stopped there,
Here's a tip: Generally speaking, tourists go to Tiansheng Sanqiao in the morning and Longshuixia Dijian in the afternoon because these two attractions are very close, but this way there will be a huge number of people. And we went to Tiansheng Sanqiao in the afternoon and Longshuixia Dijian the next day. I can say, it was so comfortable, there wasn't even anyone in the Dijian! Really, hahaha, that feeling was amazing
I don't need to say much about the beauty of the scenic spots. After all, my favorite attraction during my travels these days is the one in Wulong. Tiansheng Sanqiao played around 4 o'clock, and we walked leisurely. Then we took the free shuttle bus from the scenic area back to the tourist center and went back to the hotel to rest.
DAY5
Check out the next day. We are going to buy tickets for the ground sewing. The tourist center will sell tickets on time at 8 o'clock, as there have been people queuing up before. The earliest bus to Tiansheng Sanqiao in the morning is at 8 o'clock. There are many people waiting in line for the bus, but fortunately there are also many flights. The transfer bus in the ground seam was at 8:30 am, and there was no queue. They got on the bus directly, and there were not many people on board. Looking at the person next to Tiansheng Sanqiao waiting for the bus, I feel a bit embarrassed, hahaha.
After watching it around 11 o'clock, take the transfer bus back to the tourist center. Then we are preparing to go to Furong Cave, where there are no cars to the tourist center. We need to take an 8-yuan minibus from the tourist center back to the bus station first,
【 Tips: It depends on your luck whether you can take this 8-yuan bus back to the county town as soon as possible. When we finished playing Tiansheng Sanqiao and returned to the tourist center at 4:30 pm the day before, we specifically went to find out. First of all, the bus stop was on the opposite side of the villa group road, and then we saw a whole row of people waiting for an hour and a half! Then I petrified. In addition, they also gave me a gun lane. This is not the starting station, the bus is driving back from Xiannv Mountain. If there are still passengers on the bus, there are only a few people in line who can get on because of that point. Not very willing to have an empty car!! Then we saw a private car next to us. When we approached and asked, there were no more than 7 people taking the car. The total cost for one car was 200 yuan, and it was heading to the bus station. If it was heading to Furongdong and then returning to the bus station, the total cost for one car was 400 yuan. Then we went to ask the people in the hotel, and they found a private car that costs 150 yuan per car for 4 people. It goes back and forth to the bus station at 500 yuan to Furong Cave. So if you're in a hurry to get back to the bus station, then carpool
However, we came back after 11 o'clock and had good luck. As soon as we arrived at the station, there were cars coming, but they were still empty. We booked them, hahaha. After arriving at the bus station, there is a bus from Wulong to Jiangkou outside. You paid 9 yuan (including the money for the small van behind you) to get on the bus, changed into a small ticket, and arrived at the terminal. Someone picked you up and gave him a stamp with the small ticket, taking you to continue taking the small van (the bus was a bit broken, and we were repairing the road at that time, so we had to walk for a while before taking it again). After visiting the scenic spots in just over an hour, the Furong River is right next to it. Friends who have time and are interested can go and play.
Return journey: minibus+bus. There are private cars outside the scenic area to attract business, so there's no need to ignore them. Go back to the train station and return to Chongqing.
Here's a visual picture for everyone [applause]!!!
In summary, the overall management, environment, and other aspects of Wulong, Chongqing are top-notch, not at all chaotic, and the scenic spots are also very beautiful. Walking around is not very tiring. You can visit a scenic spot in no more than 2 hours.
DAY6
A one-day trip to the city center of Chongqing, my brother-in-law is a Chongqing Road user, so I didn't worry about changing between buses and subways, haha, so I can't remember many of them. My brother-in-law asked me to take bus 210 from Caiyuanba to the final station (Baigongguan Station).
After the tour, he asked me to walk to Zhazidong and experience the taste of climbing the mountain city. Haha, actually it's not very far. After seeing Zhazidong, I truly feel that the people at that time were really great.
Afterwards, carpool with others for 10 yuan per person to the magnetic booth.
I visited the ancient town, ate Chongqing noodles, Chongqing yogurt, and bought Chongqing Chen Fried Dough Twists. Eat well! Then take the 808 bus to Liziba Station on the rail transit, and take Line 2 of the light rail to see the moment when you pass through the building.
The cable car that I have been longing for.
【 Tip: Get a transportation card and take the cableway for only 1.8 yuan!!! Yes, you heard it right!!!! But as a tourist, buying a ticket costs 10 yuan per person. 】
Monument to the people's Liberation, we also went to eat the delicious street. The braised pork kebabs are very delicious, as well as the hot and sour powder. Unfortunately, we ate them without taking photos.
Dinner, He Wang's skewers, hahaha. This is my first time trying this kind of grand dining, it's quite delicious.
Walking at Hongyadong at night. I didn't go inside, I just took a look at the night view of the river
By the way, Chongqing's old popsicles are super delicious. I've been thinking about them all along. I've had no less than 5 of them, and they're not expensive.
DAY7
I ordered it on Ctrip in the dark valley with a group, because the price is basically the same for self-service and group buying. Why don't I worry a bit. The original plan was to enter through the north gate, but due to other reasons, the tour group changed to enter through the south gate. Haha, it's just a coincidence!
【 Tips: 1. If you enter from the south gate, you definitely don't need to buy a cableway ticket for 30 yuan (I was the only one who didn't buy a cableway on the bus that time), because it's super effortless to walk down. If you enter from the north gate, you can handle it and buy it if you're tired, because after all, it's an uphill road and the road is relatively flat. But you must buy that electric scooter!!!! The road from the scenic spot to the north gate is really beyond your imagination!!!! 30 yuan. 】
Dinner, Sichuan cuisine
DAY8
The Chaotianmen Square is under construction and cannot be accessed. You have to follow the Chaotianmen Pier down a long distance. At the end, you will see the clear Jialing River and the dirty Yangtze River intersecting, which is amazing.
I hope my tips will be of great help to everyone!
Conclusion: This is not my first self guided tour. I was too lazy to write about the previous times, but now I have forgotten a bit. I will write about it when I remember.
