Talk about travel

To see the world, the key is to be on the road, to think about what needs to be thought about, to marvel at the life that needs to be thought about, to reminisce about the past that has flowed away, that's all, and to enjoy only the process. Perhaps the world is not as exciting or beautiful as we imagine. There is a terrible saying: life is a journey full of unknowns, what matters is the scenery along the way, what matters is the mood of seeing the scenery. Travel never ends because of the beautiful scenery along the way, like life that cannot be turned back or stopped.

If you stay at this moment, you will miss out on better scenery. Maintain a sense of peace and clarity, enjoy every moment of feeling, and appreciate every scenery. This is life.

I like the feeling of being on the road, but I like the feeling of being carefree, the feeling of being unfamiliar and lonely..

Zhangjiajie Tianmenshan Mountain

On the first day, Tianmen Mountain arrived in Zhangjiajie around noon. I didn't want to waste time, so I went to Tianmen Mountain in the afternoon to see some scenic spots. The travel time to Tianmen Mountain is usually around 3-5 hours, so returning to the city from 6pm to 7pm is just enough for dinner, shopping, and rest.

The following was taken by cable car to Tianmen Mountain. This is the Ghost Valley staff path, the distant mountains are very beautiful, the scenery is picturesque, and the people are even more beautiful!

Zhangjiajie Forest Park

The next day: Entrance - Oxygen Bar Square - Golden Whip Creek (along the way, you can see Mother and Child Peak - Purple Grass Beach - Thousand Mile Meeting) - Chaotic Slope (if you don't want to walk so tired, you can continue from Thousand Mile Meeting to Water Circle Four Gates, take the Hundred Dragon Elevator RMB76/person, and then take the sightseeing car to Yuanjiajie) - Yuanjiajie

Here are the itinerary pictures of Yuan Jiajie in Jinbian Creek:

On the third day, we originally planned to go to Laowuchang the day before, but today we wake up at 5:30 in the morning (also to watch the sunrise). There are more than N cars from the entrance of Dingxiangrong Village Committee to Laowuchang, and we have arranged a car for ourselves (at our own expense). Laowuchang is a scenic spot that has not yet been developed, with two attractions: Sky Countryside and Divine Weapon Gathering. It is really beautiful. It seems that the children's shoes that I have been to in the guide are not bad. I thought they were average, but when I got closer, I was shocked, admired, and liked them. The round trip by car and sightseeing takes about 2 hours. We were lucky to have good weather during those days, so we enjoyed watching the sunrise beautifully. Shocking!!!

This feels so beautiful, it's really a fairyland... I came back from the old house and checked my luggage into the hotel arranged by Xiao Chen in the city. On the previous day, I took a sightseeing car from the entrance of Dingxiangrong Village to Shentang Bay, where I visited two scenic spots. After visiting, I took a car for 2 minutes, walked for 20 minutes to Tianzishan Parking Lot, passed the snack stall, and arrived at Helong Park. The crowd was huge, and since there were almost no people on the road the day before yesterday, there were already 10 people, so so so so many people couldn't adapt. After taking a photo, I continued to go to the bronze statue of Helong. It took 2-3 hours to walk all the way. If you are tired here, you can choose to continue from Helong Park to the parking lot and take the sightseeing car to Tianzishan Cableway Station for 67 yuan/person. The scenery along the way is as follows: He Long Park - He Long Bronze Statue - Tianzi Observation Deck - Yunqing Rock - Painting Midstream - Turtle King Fossil - He Long Tomb - Imperial Brush Peak - Tianzi Pavilion - Moon Pass - Tiantai. Then five uphill slopes and five downhill slopes reach the Ten Mile Gallery. At this time, it happens to be noon. Then we will take a small train to visit the Ten Mile Gallery (RMB 30) one-way.

The fourth day: We went to Mengdong River Rafting for RMB168. At 7:30 in the morning, the car in charge of Mengdonghe arrived at the hotel to pick us up, which was great. There were about 20 people in the car, and we took about 1.5 hours to get to the Mengdonghe ticket station. They helped us issue tickets, and within a few minutes, the tickets arrived in our hands. It went smoothly, so we got on the boat and drifted for about 2-3 hours. There are dangerous shoals, rapids, water fights, big suns, waterfalls, and brief moments of boredom and fatigue. After drifting up, the car was pulled to Furong Town. The ticket to Furong Town is 80 yuan, including Liu Xiaoqing's rice tofu specialty snacks. The scenery inside is quite good and worth a visit. After playing in Furong Town for an hour, I rushed to Phoenix. We were arranged to board a tourist bus to Phoenix, where a beautiful tour guide arranged seats for us before departing for Phoenix.

One day was spent taking a car, drifting, and enjoying the scenery. Everyone was tired, and as soon as we got on the Phoenix bus, we started to sleep soundly. I didn't even pay attention to the scenery along the way... I don't know how long I slept or how long I drove, but when I woke up, I saw a scene of lights in front of me. We should have arrived in Phoenix, and they have arranged a hotel for us. Put down your luggage, take a break, and cheer up. Phoenix Night View is here.. It's so beautiful!

Fenghuang is also a place where the Miao and Tujia ethnic groups thrive in the western border of Hunan province

Phoenix Town

In the evening, I went to Fenghuang Ancient City and found a famous local restaurant to eat delicious food. Many locals go to this food restaurant for traditional firewood cuisine. There is a big stove with a large pot on top, and then a fire is lit inside the stove to make delicious food. It has a bit of hotpot flavor, but this is the real firewood hotpot. This is my first time eating firewood cuisine, and the taste is really amazing. I really like it and I completely love it. I recommend everyone to visit Fenghuang Ancient City for tourism and be sure to taste this firewood hotpot cuisine at this restaurant!

Phoenix Ancient City does not require admission tickets. The Eight Scenic Spots Pass (148 yuan) allows you to take a leisurely stroll through the "Jumping Rock" of the Tuojiang River and the small stone streets in the style of the Ming and Qing dynasties. Then, follow the direction of the floating ginger candy and stroll along the folk street. You will find a wide variety of handicrafts such as Tujia silver jewelry, Xilan Kapu, and bamboo utensils in the small shops on the street. Tasting local specialty snacks will stimulate your appetite and make you unforgettable. Experience a truly leisurely trip to Phoenix Ancient City! Around 11 o'clock, we returned to Jishou and had lunch. We boarded the Phoenix direct bus arranged by her to Changsha. Returning to Beijing from Changsha...

Traveling to Zhangjiajie can help relax and exercise, it's not bad, but it's really painful in the feet. This is my first time writing a travelogue, it's quite ordinary. I'm laughing.
