Special reminder: do not go to the Inna River rafting (farmhouse boss will persuade), do not stay in the Fudi Hotel (some sites persuade), do not follow the tour group (can only browse one-third). I wish you and your friends a pleasant journey!
I. Introduction
Ice Valley Gully is the most worthwhile place to go around Dalian, "small Guilin" reputation, its main feature is that the mountains, water, and the peaks are small and beautiful, independent of each other, the boat ride, quite a sense of the Li River boat. I traveled to Yangshuo is not more than once, well versed in the essence of Guilin's landscape, ice valley ditch, although only its shape, did not get its God, the objective comparison is also much inferior, but in terms of the North, there are such wonders, has been very difficult. For those who have not yet been to Guilin, there is no doubt that this can be an eye-opener, get more than expected visual enjoyment. Of course, looking at the national attractions, Bingyu Gou can only be ranked in the second-rate ranks, compared to Jiuzhaigou mesmerizing lake, Yunnan clear Tibetan style, Hainan Island, the clear blue sea, worse than a chip.
Two, food, accommodation and transportation
Dalian Railway Station is the bus station, does not sell tickets directly to the Bingyu Gou, you must first go to the Zhuanghe City transit. Dalian bus station to Zhuanghe bus station to spend 130 minutes, but Zhuanghe back to Dalian is more than three hours, the reason is that the driver has to turn around to pull passengers, stopping from time to time along the way, so back to Dalian to catch a car friends to set aside more than two hours. From Dalian to Zhuanghe by the luxury air-conditioned car, the return car is very broken, not to open air-conditioning, the ticket price is basically the same, see the small cities around Dalian on the management of tourism is still not very standardized. After arriving at the Zhuanghe bus station, and then buy a ticket to the ice valley ditch, 50 minutes to arrive. Both buses run from morning to about 4pm, half hourly. I heard that Dalian's Beigangqiao bus station has direct access to the ice valley ditch car, but fewer cars, tickets are tight, not much faster, the line along the scenery is also a little inferior, so do not recommend.
Ice Valley Gorge belongs to the town of Xianrendong under the jurisdiction of Zhuanghe City, and the car from Zhuanghe to Ice Valley Gorge will also pass through the town of Xianrendong. Recommended before entering the ditch in Zhuanghe City, dining, Zhuanghe's specialty is big bone chicken, may wish to try. Because the town of Xianrendong is a tourist area, even the small restaurants and farm houses outside the ditch, the price of food is quite expensive. And there are only four restaurants in the ditch, most of which have higher price points than those outside the ditch. Now the ice valley ditch has been contracted by the state to individuals, ice valley guest house is the ditch owner opened, the location is favorable, but the highest price of accommodation and food, a plate of shredded potatoes 35, a big bone chicken more than two hundred, and each do not haggle, to the menu shall prevail. In other words,
is off-season peak season a price. There is also a guest house at the Xiaoguilin reception center, where meals are slightly less expensive, similar to small restaurants outside the ditch, with a plate of fried potatoes for 20 yuan. If you are ready to eat in the immortal hole town, buy tickets in Zhuanghe only to the immortal hole town, after dinner on the side of the road, you can get on the car to the ice valley ditch, a few dollars can be.
Since Dalian can only swim in the sea around July 10, the tourist season around Dalian also began at this time. Since you don't swim in Bingyu Gou, and the peak season is crowded, chaotic and expensive, it's obviously not as smart as going in the off-season. Even in the off-season, eating in the ditch is more expensive than in Zhuanghe City, but it is wise to stay in the ditch in the off-season. One is enough time to play, the second is that you can feel the ditch in the evening nearly 2 hours of twilight, the feeling is undoubtedly far better than living in the ditch outside the town. Of course, the peak season to live in the ditch is also very cool, but more expensive, such as my poor stick if the peak season to come, then consciously point to live outside the ditch it.
Overall, accommodation in the ditch is cheaper than in the ditch; and in both the ditch and the ditch, the off-season price is only half of the peak season.
In general, it is cheaper to stay outside the ditch than inside the ditch, and the price is only half of what it is in the peak season. 50 a room in a farmhouse outside the ditch in the off-season accommodates three or four people, with a TV and hot water, while the same simple hut in the ditch is 100. The level of the Bingyu guest house in the ditch is higher, with a bathroom and air-conditioning, the level of décor varies with the price, and the cheapest standard room in the off-season is 200, and in the peak season it won't be less than 500. The room is not available in the peak season. The first thing you need to do is to get a good deal of money from the government, and you'll be able to get a lot of money from the government.
and all attractions play time is very elastic, Bingyu Gou rough play three hours can be down, fine play to three days, so the itinerary and pace to be based on their own itinerary. But I think, if not in the ditch overnight, not in plenty of time to feel the ditch in the sunset, the evening sun and sunset under the lake and mountains, come to the ice valley ditch half of the fun is lost. And play too fine, and even every little road less traveled also want to go up to find the ghost to see a victory is not necessary, so recommended arrangements for two days is appropriate, the main attractions to the can.
One thing to note is that, do not enroll in a tour, so you will be lucky to experience a three-hour ditch rhythm. Tour guide in the back of the duck-like rush, more tired than military training, and no half a point of emotion, I feel that this rush is better than sleeping at home. Second, do not ask the tour guide, because the natural attractions and museums such as the need for guides to introduce the history of the humanities venues are different, the value of the tour guide is not high, and the perception of the scenery and taboo on the side of someone raving, more taboo on the time constraints, so if there is a tour guide walking around for you to grasp the pace will be very rushed, very uncomfortable, very uncomfortable. The third piece of advice is not to put the focus of tourism on what horseback running, archery, shooting, those rides go to the amusement park to play more enjoyable, Bingyu Gou is the place to see the scenery.
Three, scenic line details
Bingyu Gou travel line is more entangled, originally buy 120 yuan tickets, should be accompanied by a tour guide map, but then in order to take care of the guide's business, it is not a gift, the tourists take the initiative to ask for sometimes you can get it, and sometimes can not. As both the guide map, or tickets printed after the map, or the scenic area of the line map, have the more visitors look more confused about the magical effect, so I here to put the line in detail, suggesting that tourists in the scenic area in the immortal crossing at the shooting of a line map, so that combined with the author's description of the understanding of scenic routes.
Ice Valley Gully in and out of the east and south of the two gates, Zhuanghe to the ice valley gully car first through the south gate, ten minutes later to the east gate, so visitors can choose a door into the ditch. Due to the east gate into the allocation of time and arrangement of the line is more reasonable, so the following according to this introduction.
After entering the east gate, the first free boat ride for fifteen minutes, disembarkation and then walk for 15 minutes to the "Double Dragon Gate". This is the first fork in the road, but also the largest catering and accommodation in the ditch (accommodation and food is more expensive than the small Guilin reception center near the south gate), if you are determined to stay in the ditch at night, it is recommended to arrange to stay, put down your luggage and then travel light.
Afterwards, ask for the direction of the Inna River at the "Double Dragon Gateway" and walk for ten minutes to a large platform, where you will see a large lake, which is the Inna Lake. Here again free boat ride to enjoy the scenery, a round trip of half an hour, the boat will return to the platform at the boarding place. Afterwards, you can walk along the original road back to the Double Dragon sinks, or you can play rafting, take a double (single three people can not) kayak back to the Double Dragon sinks. Because of the rafting along the way scenery is good, and the whole process of their own control, more comfortable, so recommend a play, the price per person 100, off-season can be engaged in 2 people 80. recommended in the evening, one of the moment less people have been able to appreciate the beauty of the quiet waters of the Ning Shan; two is good to get the price in the evening; three is the owner of the boat to see the lesser number of people are not too pushy. Rafting time-consuming completely by their own control, as short as half an hour, as long as unlimited (if the owner of the boat does not rush, if), and some people even bring wine stopped in the lake to enjoy the scenery and dine for a few hours, and then take a nap, it is really enviable. Outside the east gate there is also a rafting, not into the ditch can also play, the price is slightly lower, the scenery is slightly worse, do not recommend. There are very few mountain climbers who will not return to Ssangyonghui from Inna Lake and choose to spend a few hours climbing and enter another travel route at "Other Heaven". Without rafting or climbing, the Inna River route is only about an hour round trip.
After returning to Shuanglonghui, ask for the "direction of Xiaoguilin", and then walk for 5 minutes to another ferry that is only 10 meters wide, where there is no bridge in plain sight, although it is possible to go around the side of the pontoon bridge to cross the river after climbing the mountain for a while, but it is more tiring and most tourists don't know about it, so most of the people are forced to cross the river with the help of the ferry, which costs 2 yuan per person one way. Each person one-way 2 yuan boat fee. After ten minutes walk to the National Culture Park, turn in there are horseback riding and archery rides, but also a few attractions, round trip takes forty to fifty minutes. Back to the entrance of the National Culture Park continue to walk, and then walk for half an hour to the small Guilin Square. Square at the river blocking the road, no bridges, forcing visitors to cross the river by amusement rides, the cheapest amusement rides per person 1 yuan. The author is flying cableway over the ground, feel good, spent ten dollars.
On the other side of the river is the second fork in the road, where asked "the direction of the Goddess Peak" after the march, although there are sightseeing buses can sit, but because it is only through the edges of the attractions, can only see the skin, so do not recommend, at most, when the return to sit a little. The road along the beautiful scenery is quite a lot, is the essence of the ice valley ditch, especially after the other day there is a line of sky, than the double dragon sinks in a line of sky more strange and dangerous. But along the road can not get to the near one line of sky, need to be from the other sky of a spaced boulders composed of a bridge over, along a very steep stone steps along the road or walk along the river, you can reach the "line" below. Of course, you can take a bamboo raft, and it's a good idea to take a bamboo raft here.
The trip starts from Xiaoguilin Square and ends at Hongjin Tombs, which takes about an hour. To Hongzhen tombs have two options, one is the original way back to the small Guilin Square, and then ask the "direction of the South Gate", walk for an hour out of the South Gate. There is not much scenery along the way, basically a simple walk, so it is recommended to take a sightseeing bus between the "South Gate-Small Guilin". The author recommends the second option, that is, after reaching Hongzhen Tombs, continue to walk forward, directly to the south gate. Along the way is a national forest park, red pine forests and gravel forests of large areas of mixing is very rare. And along the way, you will pass by the Immortal Cave, the Bonjour Cave on the guide map, with a thousand-year-old ginkgo at the entrance. This is the core attraction of Bingyu Gorge, where the town of Xianrendong got its name. This route has excellent views, but the road is more difficult to walk, to be about 2 hours.
Fourth, the summary
If, like most travelers, do not take the remote mountain road, then the main attractions of the Bingyu Gorge with six hours can be stepped all over, plus rest, photo, stay time, a day ten hours is more than enough. But because of the drive from Dalian to the ice valley ditch has three or four hours, 7:00 a.m. departure, to the ice valley ditch is also noon, and Zhuanghe back to Dalian car is more than four o'clock stop, so before two o'clock from the ice valley ditch to the return of the Zhuanghe, so the ice valley ditch to the need to allocate at least two days time. If you want to save money, do not stay in the ditch, the recommended schedule is: 8:00 bus station in Dalian, 11:30 to the ice valley ditch, from the east gate into the ditch to play until dark, almost just finished all the major attractions, and then from the south gate out of the ditch, stay outside the ditch, the next morning by Zhuanghe back to Dalian. Or the next morning to go to the nearby Buyunshan hot springs bubble, but I heard that Buyunshan generalization, do not recommend.
If the pursuit of the quality of play, we must enjoy a ditch in the feeling of the night, so that the whole trip will not need to rush, you can leisurely feel the lakes and mountains. Recommended itinerary is: get up at 8:00 a.m., after breakfast to Dalian bus station, noon to Zhuanghe, after lunch, buy tickets to the immortal hole town, the road took an hour. Then from the east gate into the ditch, the first walk to the Double Dragon Hui arranged accommodation, the day only play "Inna Lake" line, first take a free boat ride, and then spend money on their own rafting to dark, ashore for dinner. The next day 7 o'clock, swim another line, from the Double Dragon sinks to the small Guilin Square, and then choose the direction of the Goddess Peak, walk to Hong Zhentian after continuing to travel, see the immortal hole, and then arrive at the south gate, this time should be around 2 o'clock. Then return to Zhuanghe, have lunch in Zhuanghe and return, you can return to Dalian in the evening.
Day trip plan: Bingyu Gou has two entrances, one is the east gate and the other is the south gate. The east gate is more suitable for tourists by car, because every morning from Dalian Beigangqiao directly to Bingyugou big passenger. It is not far to get off the bus and buy a ticket to enter. The south gate is more suitable for self-driving, because driving can directly enter the parking lot of Xiaoguilin Reception Center at the south gate. You need to consider the availability of parking spaces during peak season
East Gate Route: first of all, take a free tour sightseeing boat in Yunshuidu, about ten minutes or so, and get off the boat in Xianrendu. During this period of time the main viewing attractions are lovers island, welcome peak, etc., the location of the boat there is a more famous attractions ? Mainstay of the river? From Xianrendu, you can walk to the service center, which is also called the "Double Dragon Gateway". Shuanglonghui' place. The terrain here is more open and the service industry is most concentrated here. The famous view here is the ? Bright Moon Sword'. When you walk north from Ssangyonghui across two bridges, you can see a pagoda between two peaks in the distance, on which are written the words ? Inna Lake? Nice, pick up the steps up to the Yingna Lake scenic area. Here you can watch the spectacular ? Pinghu Lagoon Jade', where you can also take a free excursion sightseeing boat for sightseeing. The main attractions here are ? Golden Sculpture Rock? The main attractions here are the Golden Sculpture Rock Tianbi Peak? and the movie town where the movie "Bingyu Gou" was filmed. The location of the first eighteen families living in Bingyu Gou is also here, commonly known as the "Eighteen Families". Eighteen Families? Although it is now known as the "Eighteen Families", it is still in the same place. Eighteen Families? no longer exists, but for us local people, it is a memory that can never be erased. After visiting Inna Lake, you need to return the same way. As for the mountain road in the north from Yunmen Smoke Tree to Farewell Heaven, it will not be recommended or introduced for the time being.
Back to Shuanglonghui, there is a self-funded bridge crossing program, two dollars per person [times]. After disembarking from the double-dragon Hui to the west to the small Guilin Square, where there is a battery car can be replaced. The main attractions along the way are Beauty Stone, One Line Sky, Sheep Back Stone, Worship Peak and Xiaoyu Gate. There is a playground in Xiaoguilin Square, and the programs here are of course self-paying. And you need to pay for crossing the bridge, the least is the rolling bridge, one dollar per person [times]. After crossing the bridge, continue west to 'Don't have a sky', of course there is still a battery car here. After crossing the river, the scenery here is already very different from what it used to be. The trees are taller, the forests are denser, and the water is clearer, because this is now the core area of the Immortal Cave Nature Reserve. Along the way, the main attractions are 'Goddess Peak', 'a line of sky' difference with the double dragon sink near, Lingyin Cave and so on. To here, from the east gate? Yunshuidu? to? The other sky? The journey of one day is basically almost the same. Of course, the amount of time you really need depends on how fast you travel. Also, you will need to take lunch and rest during this period. I didn't mention dining places and standards here because I don't want to go off topic or even make tourists think I'm advertising. Then there is a need for more detailed planning arrangements, Lao Hui to add.
South Gate Route: Immortal Cave - South Gate After entering the South Gate, self-driving directly into the small Guilin parking lot. The first thing you see when you enter the south gate is the ? Sacred Water Temple? The first thing you see when you enter the south gate is the Sacred Water Temple, also known as the Lower Temple. The first thing you see is the Sacred Water Temple, also known as the Lower Temple. There is a battery car to the small Guilin parking lot, of course, you can also walk along the way to enjoy the natural scenery, the famous red pine forest is at the south gate.
The route to the south gate should start from the Small Guilin Reception Center, and it is really more appropriate and convenient to use this place as a stopover. Walk north from the parking lot of the Little Guilin Reception Center for about 360 meters or so into the Little Guilin Plaza. From here either to the east? Shuanglonghui? Yunshuidu? direction, or to the west? The direction is the same as that of the east. direction can be, the route with the East Gate, just the opposite direction, not repeated.
Two-day tour plan: two-day tour on the basis of one-day tour of the original route does not require much change. What needs to be proposed is that the two-day tour is best entered at the south gate, the small Guilin reception center as a transit point is indeed very convenient and appropriate. You may think that Lao Hui's selfishness, but you can not eat and stay in my place at all. But you will know whether what I said is true after you walk through all the attractions. Oh, at present I no longer run the small Guilin reception center, but the advice is still valid One-day tour is basically around the Yingna River and the Xiaoyu River Basin, then two-day tour Lao Hui must recommend to you from? The day trip is basically around the Yingna River and Xiaoyu River Basin. To? Hongzhenying? and then to? Bonjour Cave? And then? Forest Park? I'm done. From? Hongjinyeong? to the Forest Park, the trail is out of the Xiaoyu River basin and is basically a mountain climb. However, it is a good place to visit, but of course, it is not recommended for those who have difficulty with their legs or are too old. What distinguishes this part of the trail from others is the high forests and the variety of flora and fauna. We may see squirrels leaping through the forest, or hear pheasants squawking ....... In short, this is a paradise for birds and animals, and it is also the core area of the Xianrendong Nature Reserve.
The main attractions on this leg of the journey are? A Line of Heaven? The main attractions of this journey are the "One Line Sky", the? Tongtian Cave? The main attractions of this journey are Tiger's Head? The first one is in the middle of the river, and the second one is in the middle of the river. Tiziling? and? Watchtower? also known as Wang Hai Towers,? Prajodong? What's the name of the cave? Turning Pine? etc. Recommended? Watchtower? and? Prajna Cave', because standing at the top of Longhua Mountain will definitely give you the feeling of? The view from the top of Longhua Mountain will give you a great view of the mountains. The view will give you a sense of grandeur. This journey is more suitable for couples or small groups.

Get off the highway at Zhuanghe East Station and go straight north for about 30 kilometers to Zhongtun. Zhongtun? Friends from other provinces and cities, and then according to the location of the route plan. The two places you need to pass through are the town of Xianrendong and the east gate of Bingyugou. Visitors coming from Xiuyan do not need to go through Xianrendong Town, but rather pass through the Yingna River Bridge and first pass through the East Gate. For those traveling by car, Lao Hui recommends that you enter through the south gate. This is because you can drive your car directly to the scenic Xiaoguilin parking lot, from which it is very convenient for both sightseeing and lodging in the scenic area. If it is accommodation, the car parked here is also more secure
