In the scorching summer, I really wanted to find a good place to enjoy the shade and go sightseeing, so my long-term desire for tourism began to stir again, and finally I chose Zhangjiajie and Phoenix City, which I had long admired.

The first day to Zhangjiajie

Arriving in Zhangjiajie, I chose to stay in a hotel in the city at night. Because the next day's itinerary was Tianmen Mountain, which was very close to the city, I chose to stay in Zhangjiajie City.

The next day Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park

The least poignant attraction in Zhangjiajie and the best climate is Tianmen Mountain. The altitude of more than 1,000 meters on the mountain makes this place relaxed and refreshed and cooler a hundred times. There are thrilling cable cars and glass plank roads. Standing on this highest peak, the scenery you can see can take a panoramic view of the entire Zhangjiajie City. The rolling mountains are very picturesque, and the villas on the cliffs give people a proud beauty above the clouds. The only drawback is that there are too many segmented elevators, which makes qwq tired.

We arrived at Wulingyuan by car at noon and checked in the [Listening Ya 'an Residence Characteristic Inn] that we had booked before. The inn is at the entrance of Xibu Street, very close to the scenic area. There is a bus at the entrance of the inn that goes directly to the scenic area, which is relatively convenient. The inn environment is really good, and the lady owner's service is also very good. She helped us book tickets for the scenic area, explained to us how to play in the scenic area, and gave us a map of the scenic area. This service is very in place! 100 likes are not too many!

The third and fourth days of Zhangjiajie National Forest Park

Food:

On the first night, I had a special meal in Wulingyuan City: Stone pot fish and sanxia pot. We are a Hunan restaurant recommended by many people when making guides. Next to Wulingyuan Bus Station, the stone pot fish and sanxia pot are really good and delicious. There is also a cold cucumber. You need to eat cold dishes in summer, and there is also ice bean curd. This is a real recommendation. The taste is super good. I ate several of them. The service is very enthusiastic. The boss and waiter have a very good attitude. They like his family's service very much and even more his family's delicious food.

Day 5 Phoenix Ancient City

Check-in + Tips for Phoenix Ancient City ~ From Zhangjiajie Bus Station, take a bus to Phoenix Bus Station, 80 yuan/person, and the journey is 3.5h. There are not many trains from Zhangjiajie to Fenghuang, about five or six trains a day. Don't miss the shuttle bus for friends who go there. I took the 12:30 train. After getting off the bus, take a taxi to Hongqiao, which is the entrance of the ancient city, for 10 yuan.

The ancient city of Fenghuang is divided into a New town area and a Laocheng District. Traffic is not allowed in the old city, and the area is indeed not large. You can visit it in half a day. Many shops are on the street, but there are no shops in the deep alleys. But the photos work well.

It is particularly suitable for wearing Miao clothes to take photos in the ancient city. There are also many shops that rent Miao clothes and Han clothes, usually for 68 yuan/hour, and a deposit is required. I rented it in a shop in the middle of Hongqiao for 50 and a half days, including headwear, earrings, and necklaces. I just need my ID card. It's really beautiful to take pictures wearing Miao clothes. I didn't braid it because I had to wash my hair every day and thought it would be troublesome. When the roadside aunt saw you, she asked if you would braid it for 10 yuan and 8 strings. The best way to refuse them was: they had done it. There is no boat, 85 yuan/person, 20 minutes, which personally feels inappropriate.

Fenghuang Ancient City finally found a very special gourmet restaurant. All the food it makes is made with firewood. The taste is really authentic and very delicious. Many stars have checked in to eat this time-honored restaurant. It has a good reputation. It is very popular, so I really want to recommend it! I ate firewood fish this time, and the taste was so great. The only restaurant I recommend for traveling to Fenghuang Ancient City!

At night, the lights are bright. The ancient city became a place full of lights complementing each other. Walking along the Tuojiang River, although the crowd is bustling, the spiritual shock brought by this ancient city is still strong.

I also looked for the accommodation on the reviews, mainly looking at the consumption reviews with pictures. Rest is really important. The inn we found was in the second row of Tuojiang River, far away from Bar Street. It was very quiet at night. It was so important to have a good sleep during the trip.

When leaving, I took a taxi from Hongqiao to Phoenix Bus Station for 10 yuan. Buy tickets on the first floor and get on the second floor.

Regardless of whether the commercialization here is serious or not, the scenery is really beautiful. In order to see this beautiful scenery, it is worth checking in once.

Zhangjiajie, the trip to the ancient city of Fenghuang came to a successful conclusion, leaving me with beautiful memories
