The Hunan trip is mainly for Zhangjiajie National Forest Park

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park is located in the northwest of Zhangjiajie City, Hunan Province. It is the first national forest park in China established in 1982 with the approval of the National Development and Reform Commission, commissioned by the State Council

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park alone is enough to play for three to four days, but how can young people only play in the forest park

Schedule:

1. Dalian Zhangjiajie City

2. Zhangjiajie Forest Park

(Wulingyuan National Scenic Spot landmark gate - Bailong Tianti - Yuanjiajie - Yangjiajie - Tianzi Mountain - cableway - Wulingyuan National Scenic Spot landmark gate)

3: Furong Town round-trip

4: Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park - Phoenix Ancient City

5: Fenghuang Ancient City - Changsha City

6: Changsha

7: Go home

Domestic preparations are routine, and specific details will be explained slowly in the main text

9.3 Zhangjiajie

Try to choose a plane to Zhangjiajie Hehua Airport as much as possible, otherwise Changsha Huanghua International Airport is really far away

After getting off the plane, you can go to Zhangjiajie Central Bus Station and take a bus to Wulingyuan National Scenic Spot. At 06:30-18:00, the daily shift lasts for 15 minutes. When the passengers are full, you can walk for 13 yuan/person

I take a taxi directly to the Liujia Hotel (Wulingyuan National Scenic Spot Branch, Zhangjiajie) 107 yuan

Wulingyuan National Scenic Spot is the hotel near the scenic spot. If you want to walk to the sign gate in the morning, try to choose the location within Yuquan Road

The above picture is the entrance of Wulingyuan National Scenic Spot symbolic gate of Zhangjiajie National Forest Park

My hotel is separated from the landmark by a small river, and the inns across the river are generally decorated in a traditional Chinese style. I don't like it, so I chose Liujia

After putting down my luggage, I went to have dinner. Besides, I don't know if it's due to the sixth grade or the general situation, but the hotel room is a bit damp

Two people from Xiangjian Tu Restaurant ordered three pots and a cold bamboo shoot salad, but they didn't want any kiwi juice

Xiang cuisine is really appetizing. When I made the payment, I found out that his house and Master Gong's local restaurant should be the same

After dinner, take a walk around nearby. August melons are not delicious

If you're not interested in Charm Xiangxi, you didn't go. If you want to pass the time, it's recommended to learn about it in advance

The next day when entering the mountains, prepare dry food in advance

9.4 Wulingyuan National Scenic Spot

A hearty breakfast is needed before exploring the beautiful scenery

After breakfast, depart to start the one-day tour route of Zhangjiajie National Forest Park

Ticket purchase on the right side of the sign gate with ID card, 228 yuan/person, valid for four days

After checking in and entering my fingerprints, I took the eco-friendly bus according to the signs. My first stop was the Bailong Sky Ladder, which cost 65 yuan per person for a one-way trip

Be careful to avoid monkeys when carrying snacks, otherwise it will be a real robbery

Standing up from the ladder is the backyard of the Yuan family, just follow the crowd

Pigsy Looking in the Mirror

This is the scene from the movie Avatar

It's like the avatar on the old version of 100 yuan

The First Bridge in the World

Yuan Jiajie ends his journey by taking an eco-friendly car to Yang Jiajie

Get off the car and follow the signs to walk to Wulong Village. It takes an hour and the journey is slightly dangerous. Climbing to the observation deck is worth it

On the way, only one person could pass through the cave, and later there were no stone steps left. Instead, steel bars were welded onto iron steps to reach the observation deck

Don't miss this stone screen

I missed the three-way intersection and went directly to Helong Park Station (Tianzishan) on the original route back to the boarding point

There is a statue of He Long in He Long Park

Xihai, in fact, watching too much can also lead to aesthetic fatigue

Tianzi Pavilion

Yubi Peak

Fairy scattering flowers

The Tianzishan Cableway descends the mountain (one-way 72 yuan/person). I only play for one day and will go back to the hotel to pick up my luggage and go to Zhangjiajie City

I personally think it's reasonable to plan for only one day and play around the mountain

The next day, you can choose to enter through the forest park gate to play Huangshi Village and Jinbian Creek

I drew a rough map, but it may not be clear. I left a private message on the original map

Tickets for Tianmen Mountain Forest Park must be reserved in advance, and other itineraries should be arranged according to the scheduled time period to avoid disrupting the plan due to not being able to book the expected time

9.5 Furong Town

The next day of climbing, of course, I woke up naturally and only arranged for Furong Town

Recommended WeChat mini program Hunan Automotive Ticketing Network, it is very convenient to book car tickets in advance

Northeasterners say breakfast noodles are too happy

Zhangjiajie Central Bus Station - Furong Town, 07:30-17:00, 30 yuan/person, leave when full

It is a super old 13 seater passenger car, with a difficult two-hour journey

Get off at Furong Town Bus Station and there is a yellow small noodle bus. The scenic spot bus seems to cost 3 yuan per person, and it is also more convenient to take this bus back to the bus station

Furong Town costs 80 yuan per person and can be fully explored in three hours

Stage, with performances

The scenic area mainly composed of waterfalls has little water in September, but fortunately the weather is good

There weren't many people in the scenic area, so I ended up eating a bowl of rice tofu (both salty and sweet), which was another two-hour drive away

The rice tofu shop is next to a memorial archway near the exit. If you walk normally, you will pass by without looking for it

Dinner Qin Auntie Pot Rice

Good taste, good service, recommended

If you want to stay overnight in Furong Town, it is recommended to book tickets for the earliest time slot at Tianmen Mountain Forest Park in the morning, go to Furong Town in the afternoon to see the night view at night, and then travel from Furong Town to Fenghuang Ancient City (taking the Taipo Road from Furong Town may be a bit difficult)

9.6 Tianmen Mountain

There are three ways to play Tianmen Mountain: A cable car up the mountain and environmental protection car down the mountain The B-line environmental protection vehicle goes up the mountain and down the cableway C-line environmental protection vehicle up and down. 258 yuan/person

Difference: After a cable car ride, take a tour around the mountain and take a car down the stairs To get off the B line at the foot of the mountain, you need to take the stairs up the mountain (you can take the escalator for 32 yuan/person). If you don't want to take the cableway, you can choose the C line. I couldn't book the A line, so I had to take the B line

Pick up your ticket at the Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park drop off point in the city within the scheduled time, and follow the instructions to take the bus or cableway separately

The bus changes at the mountain entrance and enters the mountain, winding the mountain road for the second half of the journey

To the right of the staircase is the entrance to the escalator

Pretend that I climbed up

The glass walkway is divided into three sections (see the picture below). The ticket is five yuan. It's enough to walk along one section

Back of the cave

Suspension bridge

Xu Yuanlin

I took the instruction map in the park (the original picture was left private), and the gameplay is to go around for about four hours, a scenic spot that is not interesting and unwilling to go

After descending the mountain, I took a casual bite near the bus station and went to Fenghuang Ancient City in the afternoon (a five hour drive)

If you can't find Didi at the parking lot of Fenghuang Ancient City Bus Station, just call a taxi for a price. Turn left from the parking lot and get off at Nanhuamen Station on the right side of the road. Don't listen to anyone who recommends anything on the bus. After getting off, walk back and turn left at the intersection to see Nanhuamen

Suggest contacting the innkeeper in advance, he will tell you the specific way or where he will pick you up

Accommodation in the ancient city: The most beautiful feature of Fenghuang Ancient City is the night view of the Tuojiang River. The Tuojiang River is outside the ancient city walls, with one side facing the ancient city and the other side facing the bar street. The interior of the ancient city is not much different from other ancient cities in China. It is recommended to choose a riverside inn (easy to find)

I ultimately chose Phoenix Izu Boutique Homestay for reference only!

Rest for a while at the inn, come out after dark to take pictures of the night view and have some food along the way

It's really beautiful, I didn't waste the five hour drive

Shrimp is something they found online in Jiangli and then fried shrimp cakes to sell. To be honest, it's a bit

9.7 Phoenix Ancient City

A green flower seedling cake for breakfast costs 12 yuan and tastes good

Ambassador Hotel, the taste of blood cake duck is good, the duck meat is tender, and the fish is not very good

Go to Changsha in the afternoon

If I take the bus, it may take another five hours. I can't stand it anymore. I choose to take the bus from Fenghuang Ancient City to Huaihua South, and then take the Huaihua South high-speed railway to Changsha South

The bus from Fenghuang Ancient City to Huaihua South costs over 40 yuan per person per hour, and you can see Huaihua South Station from the bus station. It takes less than two hours from Huaihua South to Changsha South

Get off at Changsha South Station, do not leave the station and transfer directly to the subway to avoid security checks

I booked an apartment near Wuyi Square on Airbnb in Changsha for two nights. There are many shopping malls nearby, which is convenient

In Changsha, almost every 100 meters in commercial areas, there is a tea shop with a beautiful appearance. It can be said that Youlan Latte is really delicious

9.8 Changsha City

Natural awakening saves breakfast and goes directly to Wenheyou (open at 11:00). Take photos when you arrive early

Some of them are heading to the Hisense Plaza store to eat

After dinner, I checked in at IFS. I forgot to go to the top floor in Chengdu to take pictures of pandas, but I didn't forget in Changsha

It's hot all afternoon, I wandered around the mall, and in the evening I went to Taiping Street. Drinking milk tea all day made me sick

I wasn't hungry at night, so I thought I would leave the next day and went to a lamp instead

You have to wait for the food, it takes a while to serve. The taste is good (stir fried shredded radish, braised rice tofu)

Xiang cuisine perfectly fits my northeast stomach

Hunan trip, particularly close to nature

After writing this travelogue during the epidemic, may the epidemic pass soon and we continue to explore this beautiful world
