About Zhangjiajie

I started watching 'Happy Camp' when I was in elementary school. I used to think that only Changsha in Hunan was worth visiting, but it wasn't until I found out about Zhangjiajie that I realized how ignorant and ignorant I was back then

Time and People

Six years of classmates and nearly ten years of friends, after college, most of them have to go home for holidays to get together. They don't go out to play together many times. This time they went out for a staggered trip, avoiding the peak tourist season of Qingming, but not the rainy weather

This time, I chose to drive myself

It took more than four hours of high-speed rail to Zhangjiajie for self driving, and then I chose to rent a car for self driving. It's a girl's nature to love shopping, and laziness is my nature. I would never walk by car if I could, because renting a car for self driving is really convenient. After using Yihai Car Rental, I realized that it's still possible to play like this when going out. If it's just one person, it may not be cost-effective, but the three of us are very affordable. New users will get cheaper. However, this time I encountered a credit card payment discount activity, which is also much cheaper, convenient, easy, and affordable. I'm not sure about other families, but Yihai has pick-up points near airports or stations in almost every city, with comprehensive coverage. This is quite good

Day 1: Helong Park - Yuanjiazhaizi - Yuanjiajie

Spring always seems to come with rain. On the first day in Zhangjiajie, it started raining and the temperature dropped several degrees. We were supposed to go to Tianzishan, but for safety reasons, we cancelled the trip and went to Helong Park after the rain stopped

In the afternoon, I went to Yuanjiajie and met many monkeys on the mountaintop. They looked like golden monkeys and other monkeys. These monkeys are not like wild monkeys and do not steal things from tourists. When someone feeds them, they will obediently sit on the railing and eat. On the other side of the railing is a bottomless abyss, and the agile monkeys are completely unaware of the danger

Check in at the filming location of 'Avatar', every mountain in Zhangjiajie seems like an independent one, and no matter which angle you look at it from, it presents a green landscape before your eyes

Day 2: Jinbianxi - Shili Gallery - Charm of Xiangxi

In the morning, I went to Jinbian Creek. Many people came with the tour group and wanted to avoid coming earlier. Actually, there weren't many people

The little train at the Ten Mile Gallery really amazed me. The scenery along the way was beautiful, and spring was full of greenery. Will autumn bring a different kind of scenery

I went to watch a charming performance in Xiangxi in the evening. The tickets were purchased by the inn owner, which was cheaper. The performance introduced Xiangxi culture from multiple aspects, and the exciting part was not only the stage effect, but also its overall story, costumes, and so on

Day 3: Tianmen Mountain - Changsha

Today, we only arranged a trip to Tianmen Mountain. We went down to Changsha. It took less than two hours to drive from Wulingyuan National Scenic Spot to Tianmen Mountain Scenic Area. After two days of cold weather, today's weather is no longer gloomy

Climbing up the ladder is really a physically demanding job. Climbing up in one go and looking back, I have already conquered nearly a thousand steps

The glass walkway is very narrow and seems crowded. This kind of hanging plank road is my first experience. I am not so afraid to walk along with the crowded crowd. When walking, I must not look down and feel dizzy

When I was going down the mountain, I happened to catch up with a tourist group and had to wait in line for a long time before buying a return cableway ticket. The cableway took nearly half an hour, which was also the longest cableway I had ever taken. It took me five hours to drive from Zhangjiajie to Changsha, but fortunately the journey was smooth and it was not too late when I arrived in Changsha

Day 4: Huangxing Road Pedestrian Street - Taiping Old Street - Hunan Provincial Museum - Pozi Street Fire Palace

Today's Changsha, the first thing I do when I come to Changsha is to buy a cup of tea with beautiful appearance. I am addicted to internet famous products and cannot extricate myself, but the taste is indeed good

Stinky tofu is the leader of Changsha snacks. No matter what city's snack street, there is always a taste of Stinky tofu. Not to mention that in Changsha, several people bought a total of one and tasted it. Some people look bright on the surface, but actually their forehead has been sweating

 

Taiping Old Street is an ancient city street that preserves its original layout. There are many time-honored brands on the street, as well as many internet famous creative shops, which serve as a treasure trove for strolling after meals

In the afternoon, I went to the museum. The visiting procedures for museums in each place are similar, and tickets need to be reserved in advance. I need to swipe my ID card to enter. Compared to the Hubei Provincial Museum and the Shaanxi Provincial Museum, the Hunan Provincial Museum is not as large in scale and not as crowded, but the design is very beautiful, and it is also very comfortable to visit

At night, Changsha has just begun to liven up, and the Fire Palace is illuminated by a fiery red light. Despite mixed opinions, there are still many people coming here. There are hundreds of Changsha snacks gathered here, whether you want to eat or not, it is also quite good to experience them

Day 5: Hunan TV Radio and Television Center - Xie Zilong Image Museum - Hunan University - Yuelu Academy - Wenheyou

For breakfast today, we had a bowl of noodles for one person in the morning. This small shop was stumbled upon near a homestay, and although the storefront is run down, the fragrance of noodles can be smelled from afar. There are many side dishes, and a small bowl can satisfy the appetite for the whole day

The children who grew up at Hunan TV have finally come to the broadcasting center to clock in, but they can only take photos outside the building. We don't have a pass, and coming here really brings back endless memories

Where is the best place to take photos in Changsha? The answer, of course, is the Xie Zilong Image Art Museum. The museum is based on a beige color scheme, and not only can we take photos, but we can also visit art exhibitions. When we went there, there happened to be two exhibitions, which are not held every day. It seems that we were quite lucky

We haven't delved deep into Hunan University yet. Not far from the entrance, we can see the statue of Comrade Mao Zedong and the brick red main building, which is visible to the naked eye in history

I didn't visit Hunan University for a long time because I had to come to Yuelu Academy. Yuelu Academy, one of our four major academies, is located at the foot of Yuelu Mountain. Every mountain, tree, grass, and tree here exudes a historical atmosphere, and it is truly one of the oldest academies in China

The next key itinerary is Aiwan Pavilion, which is surrounded by green trees. I wanted to take a good tour, but it rained halfway through, so I had to wait in the pavilion until the rain stopped before continuing

In Changsha, it seems like you can see Wenheyou everywhere, and the internet celebrity crayfish is even more likely to come and check in. I thought there would be a lot of people queuing up, but I didn't expect so many. After queuing up, I strolled around the store upstairs and downstairs, and every corner was in a retro style. This stroll lasted for more than an hour

Finally able to eat! Three people ate over two hundred, but each person only ate a hundred, which is not bad

Day 6: Orange Island Head - South Gate

The last attraction of this time - Orange Island Head, the scenic area is quite large, and Orange Island Head is also a landmark building in Changsha. I only came on the last day

The roadside snacks at the south gate may be authentic Changsha snacks, such as Stinky tofu at five yuan, sugar and oil baba at four yuan and shaved noodles at more than ten yuan per capita. It's delicious and inexpensive. I feel that these roadside stalls are really better than delicacies

Before leaving, I came to check in again and bought some souvenirs. I really hope to open a branch in another city,
