When people travel in the mountains and gorges, they are drawing pictures. The wall loves double screens, and the sky sees one line.
Apes cry everywhere, and ancient wood leaves are clustered. When the sun returns at night, the spring sounds and winds on both sides of the river.
It is talking about Zhangjiajie, Zhangjiajie, and the ancient work Dayong. The name of that time has a bit of a fairy spirit, and so does the scenery.
In 1982, Zhangjiajie established China's first national forest park, filling the gap in China's absence of national parks. Later, Dayong City was renamed Zhangjiajie City because Zhangjiajie National Forest Park was famous at home and abroad.
Zhangjiajie City is located in the northwest of Hunan, in the middle and upper reaches of the Lishui River. It is the most important tourist city in Hunan and one of the most important tourist cities in my country. Many tourists come here every year.
This is also the prototype of Hallelujah Mountains in Avatar.
Itinerary route:
DAY1 Shanghai-Zhangjiajie-Xibu Ancient Street
DAY2 Huangshizhai-Jinbian Creek-Zhangjiajie Eternal Love
DAY3 Shili Gallery-Yuan Jiajie-Yang Jiajie
DAY4 Baofeng Lake-Shanghai
About transportation:
The most convenient transportation to Zhangjiajie City is by plane. There is an airport. The airport bus can go to some parts of the city, but it is not very convenient and most of them need to change buses. Therefore, if there are many people, it is recommended to take a taxi. It is about 120 yuan to take a taxi to Wulingyuan Scenic Area.
The high-speed railway has not yet been opened, so the train speed is relatively slow. If it is close to a city, there is no problem, but if it is relatively far away, it is not recommended.
Zhangjiajie Bus Station is close to the railway station and there is a shuttle bus to the scenic spot.
About accommodation:
Personally, I don't recommend living in the city. It is a long distance from the scenic spot. I recommend living near Xibugu Street. There are many B & Bs and hotels, so you can also visit by.
About tickets:
The main scenic spots in Zhangjiajie now include Wulingyuan Scenic Area, Tianmenshan National Forest Park, Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon, and Zhangjiajie Eternal Love. You can choose the place you want to go and buy tickets. If Zhangjiajie Eternal Love is Eternal Love, it is better to book in advance. Sometimes it is really hard to get a ticket.

Notes:
1. When arriving at Zhangjiajie Airport, it is recommended to hail a taxi online. Otherwise, it will easily occur to customers with temporary fare increases. Some friends in the same industry have encountered this. If you ask for additional money on the way, you should be careful. The scenic spot is really too prosperous, and this situation is really inevitable.
2. In the hot summer, mosquitoes don't rest, so remember to bring various anti-mosquito items.
3. Umbrella is a must-have. In fact, Zhangjiajie is more beautiful after the rain, surrounded by clouds and mist.
4. There are many monkeys in the scenic area. Try not to wear clothes with too bright colors, such as yellow and red. It is easier for monkeys to claw directly. If you want food, don't feed it at will. Some monkeys are aggressive, so just watch from a distance.
The following is the dividing line of the text----------------------------------------------------------------
DAY1 Shanghai-Zhangjiajie-Xibu Ancient Street
I had to fly from Shanghai to Zhangjiajie. The whole journey took about two and a half hours. When I arrived in Zhangjiajie, it was already 1 p.m.. I took a taxi directly at the airport gate and didn't take the bus because the bus also needed to be transferred, which was not very convenient. It cost 110 yuan to take a taxi to Xibugu Street. The driver was kind and did not increase the price halfway, which gave me a good initial impression of Zhangjiajie.
I stayed in Suoxi Mountain Residence-Zen Jing, which is next to Xibu Street, making it convenient to eat and travel.
The environment is quiet and full of Zen, and the ingenuity can be seen in the details.
Stroll around Xibu Street next to it. In fact, there is a river beach here. Many tourists and local residents are playing in the water there and watching the sunset. It is a very good place to go.
Next to the inn is Suoxi Shanju Restaurant, where you can try all kinds of delicious dishes here. The girls here are hospitable, and you can also come to the mountains and rivers.
Don't worry, the rice wine here is sweet. If girls come, they can make a few bowls.
Boys should not be missed. All of our friends are eager to try and experience the ethnic customs here. It is not in vain.
Hunan specialties, all kinds of bacon, chopped pepper fish head, you should also try it.
The fish head with chopped pepper is indeed a major feature of Hunan cuisine. It is delicious and delicious. As I write, I feel that I smell the rich flavor of fish and chopped pepper.
When night falls, take a look at the night view of Xibu Ancient Street. There is a suspension bridge on the street. If you have time, you can wait for the lights on the suspension bridge to turn on one by one.
There are bars and restaurants here, where you can play in the water and date. The locals also like it very much.
DAY2 Huangshizhai-Jinbian Creek-Zhangjiajie Eternal Love
Huangshizhai is the first location where the legendary "Avatar" was filmed. It cannot be said that Zhangjiajie's reputation was brought about by "Avatar", but the expansion of its international impression must be closely related to its becoming a prototype.
The cableway in Huangshizhai is a must-experience, because some of the cableways are glass bottomed and transparent. This type of cableway can only accommodate 5 people, while the general cableway can accommodate more people. If you are not afraid of heights, I would suggest sitting in this completely transparent one, which has a double degree of stimulation. Of course, I didn't sit there, so I'm worried.
As a sunny baby, it is sunny everywhere I go. As a result, many rainy scenery are easy to miss. After I took photos of sunny days, a friend silently exposed the photos taken on the last rainy day. The mountains are misty and misty, the peaks are faint, and the bottom seems to have floated. That's what it looks like in Avatar, but in terms of the scenery alone, it's already very beautiful.
There are many peaks and lush mountains that stretch as far as the eye can see.
Lovers Peak here really requires imagination to know. The imagination of tourists is also shocking. They can actually find accurate points without anyone explaining it.
Also, the monkeys here are fiercer than humans. Haha, they are the only ones who snatch your things. When I was taking pictures seriously, a female monkey roared past me, and the tourists exclaimed, I walked slowly as if nothing had happened. In fact, I was scared. I couldn't bear the monkey's paw.
Therefore, although monkeys are cute, don't provoke them easily. They really eat them directly from others.
In fact, if you play by yourself, how you want to walk depends on your mood. A small circle will be enough for an hour. A small circle will take you for a few hours. It depends on your physical fitness.
After coming down from Huangshi Village, I took a stroll around the Jinbian River. I thought Zhangjiajie was known for its greatness, but I didn't expect there to be such a beautiful place.
I sometimes see wedding photos taken.
Surrounded by green forests, gurgling streams, and ding-dong springs, it is a suitable place for young couples to date.
It is said that this is also the location where Pig Bajie carried his daughter-in-law in "Journey to the West" was filmed. You really have to compare it carefully to see it.
Zhangjiajie Qianggu Qing opens at 10 noon. It's easy to stroll around in the morning, but it's a good choice to go to Qianggu Qing in the afternoon. You can play directly until evening.
Tickets here can also be used to enter the park multiple times. Just remember to brush your face.
You can buy tickets directly in the lobby. Of course, I still recommend booking the performance in advance, because it has only been opened for a long time, and bookings are still very popular.
The hall is full of simplicity and mystery.
The program schedule in the park should also be clear.
In fact, I have been to the ages of other places. Every place has its own characteristics, but one thing is in common, that is, you must get a tour guide and see clearly the schedule of various performances. Make reasonable arrangements for good performances, because there are really a variety of projects.
The entrance corridor is quite in the style of a Japanese garden, and the oil-paper umbrellas at the top are embellished with some ethnic customs.
When you enter the park, start shopping from Dayong Ancient Street. Zhangjiajie was called Dayong in ancient times. This place is naturally full of ancient atmosphere.
There are many shops, making us feel like we have traveled to the past.
The little person at the door of this handicraft workshop looked no different from a distance than a real person, which made everyone exclaim. Only after closer inspection did they discover the clues.
Here, there are handmade shops, Hanfu shops, all kinds of shops, and there are all kinds of shops you like, so there is no need to bring in food. There are countless delicious food here, and you can even have a bowl of wine and drink.
It's about noon when you arrive at Qiangu Qing Scenic Area. You're hungry. Of course, you have to go straight to the theme. If the food of Dayong Ancient Street doesn't attract you, go to another food street.
Most of that street are restaurants, including yogurt, jelly, fruits, dumplings, and skewers. Whatever you want to eat depends on your choice.
Yogurt is really delicious, I recommend it.
There is also a Hanfu rental shop here, which you can change into and take photos in the small garden next to it.
Or buy a windmill and travel with the wind. Different people naturally have different ways to play.
After eating your fill, hurry to see the first performance on your schedule.
The location is near Lovers 'Sea. There is also a white sand beach. Playing with sand is also a good choice. The children really like it very much. As long as they give the children a sand-digging tool, they can play for a long time.
Of course, once the floating trapeze show here started, everyone's attention was completely diverted away.
The high-level and difficult movements made everyone extremely excited. If the little brother was on a whim, he would even use it to sprinkle water at the crowd, so the parasol would come in handy.
After watching the water trapeze show, lie on the beach and have a geyou paralysis, enjoy the sun and breeze, and of course, you can also take your children to play in Rotten Apple Park.
This is a playground for young children. It is a scaled-down version of an adult amusement park. There are carousels and the like.
There is also a small library here, where you can have a drink, rest, and blow on the air conditioner. It's so great.
The Jianghu flash show in the performance is on Dayong Ancient Street and is definitely not to be missed. If you change into ancient costumes, you will have a lot of fun in summer.
Every time at this time, the roadside will be blocked. It seems that everyone in the scenic area has arrived here.
This is also one of the characteristics of eternal love.
The performance here is one loop after another, scene after scene, throw a hydrangea ball to learn!
There is a way to interact with tourists when a toast is recruited. The handsome guy who is smashed by a hydrangea can go on stage and have a bowl of wine with his sister.
The little brother who came up was very interesting, and the crowd broke out with laughter.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you miss some performances. Many of them have repeated lyrics, so you can watch it next time.
For the Qiangu Love Scenic Area, these performances are just appetizers, and the highlight is naturally Zhangjiajie Qiangu Love.
The performance is divided into six acts, the preface is "The Changing Sea and Mulberry Fields"-Act 1,"Wuling Wonderland"-Act 2,"The Legend of Tianzi Mountain"-Act 3,"Past Events in a Small City"-Act 4,"Ma Sang Tree"-and the end,"Love in Xiangxi".
Here you can see the beauty of Zhangjiajie's extraordinary craftsmanship, listen to the clear sound of water, and feel the power of love.
The stage design here is really amazing. The opening is a big move, which is definitely the No. 1 performance that I have seen this year.
Preface to "The Changing Sea and Mulberry Fields":
This nature is full of magical power. It moves around, fills the sea and builds mountains, and peaks rise from the ground, forming a majestic and wonderful landscape.
The fish swam, the ancients hunted, and the species lived forever.
Act 1 "Wuling Wonderland":
The fairyland is naturally dominated by beauty, singing and dancing, recreating the style of all ethnic groups in Wuling.
And this acrobatic performance is also amazing, with all kinds of shapes at your fingertips.
Act 2,"Legend of Tianzi Mountain":
After the light, darkness struck. It was a backward era. The decadence of the Tusi system plunged the young couple at that time into endless pain, just like the Scottish aristocrats 'sin in "Brave Heart".
It was a history of struggle. There were always sacrifices in struggle, but it brought good results.
Act 3,"Past Events in a Small Town":
Love is poetry and the source of all beauty.
Beauty under the moon, boating on the lake, lovers whisper among themselves.
This stage is extremely beautiful, and every scene is immersive.
The border people here have pure and good souls, which is a form of life that is 'beautiful, healthy and natural' without violating human nature."
Act 4 "Masang Tree"-Epilogue "Love in Xiangxi":
If love is waiting, giving, enjoying, and heartbreaking, then there is another kind of love called the great love of home and country. As long as you set out, you will never look back.
The mother and wife waiting under the Masang tree may not be able to wait to return home, but it is blood, it is for the country, for the sacrifice of the nation, and it is true love.
I feel that the performance alone is worth the ticket price. The sound effects are beautiful, the stage technology is first-class, and the actors 'performance is full of voices and emotions, which makes people remember for a long time.
There is actually a gift shop for Qiangu Qing next to the theater. It's buying and buying again. The surroundings are really super cute.
After coming out of the theater, the bonfire party began. Everyone held hands and danced together.
The bonfire party is over, don't go away, there is still a bubble show.
The bubbles in the evening are stained with the gold of the sunset, adding a bit more gorgeous beauty to the fun.
Adults and children have fun together, and no one will let anyone else.
This is the rhythm of playing from morning to night. If you want to continue playing in the water, this is the world for children.
Or come and challenge your courage and walk in the air.
Go to the haunted house to see if you are brave enough.
You can also try calling the wind and rain.
In short, you can play whatever you want. As night falls, blow the wind and enjoy the coolness.
After having dinner in the scenic area, you can rest directly when you go back to your room. It's a satisfying day.
DAY3 Shili Gallery-Yuan Jiajie-Yang Jiajie
Wulingyuan Scenic Area is really big, with many doors, so you must be clear about which scenic spot to go to.
If you come to Shili Gallery, don't miss the sightseeing train here. It's driving all the way, it's not hot, and you can still take photos. Of course, you can also choose to walk yourself, and you will have more time to stop and take photos.
Shili Gallery looks at stones, all kinds of strange rocks, forming different patterns.
What's more interesting here is that there is a small monkey garden. The monkeys here are much more docile than those in Huangshi Village. Probably because they are often fed, they will also put some poses out. Tourists stop to take photos, making it a unique scenery.
If you want to relax, there are VIP cars here, which is of course a lot less effort than the scenic area's own free shuttle bus. There is no need to queue up. Use the Coster van and have fun comfortably.
You also need to take a ride on the Tianzi Mountain cableway. You can pass through the peaks and see the mountains.
From Helong Square down, you can actually see the typical landform of Zhangjiajie.
There are many peaks and rich levels.
If you are hungry, you can have lunch in the scenic area.
Jiahe Tianzishan Ecological Restaurant is quite good. It has a buffet format and a lot of dishes to choose from. There is such a restaurant in the scenic area, and I am very satisfied with its high cost performance.
Have lunch and head to Yuanjiajie. This is a circle. You will always come back after a circle, so don't worry about getting lost.
There is the first bridge in the world here, which is more suitable for viewing from a distance. There are many observation platforms. You can see this natural bridge from different angles, suspended between two peaks.
Many people will walk across the bridge, more to get a slap on the face, and I am no exception.
Here is Nantian Yizhu, which is the prototype site of "Avatar".
Overlooking the stone forest and imagine the scene under the clouds and clouds.
The shapes of the peaks are unique and different. When they are put together, they have different names such as Five Finger Peak.
Viewed from different angles, there are different beauty, so it is recommended to go around it.
Yangjiajie is not far from Yuanjiajie. It is 20 minutes away. It is good to have a VIP car, which saves effort.
Give a thumbs up to the Natural Great Wall. It is perfect and does have the feeling of a city wall.
When you come down the mountain, you are so hungry that you can eat a cow. Go to the bowls of vegetables in the stockade and rub them.
You can also see the scenery outside in the private room on the second floor. Along the river bank, it is beautiful under the sunset. The boss really knows how to choose a place.
The main dish is bowl vegetables. The quantity is not large, but when the quantity is large, it looks quite spectacular.
Well, I was even more successful in starving myself.
DAY4 Baofeng Lake-Shanghai
Baofeng Lake is also one of the locations where Journey to the West is filmed.
Take the minibus to visit the lake first.
There seemed to be smoke on the water, which was hazy, and strange rocks such as camels, peacocks, pig pigs, etc. were also seen.
The boat comes with its own guide and can explain many places. There are also brothers and sisters singing and passing on the shore.
At the end of the lake tour, near the exit of the scenic spot, there is the original location of Shuilian Cave, which is very suitable for checking in.
You can come out after shopping for about an hour, and then fly back to Shanghai for 4 days. It is fun and delicious.
