Five-day Self-help Tour in Five Places in the South of the Yangtze River at 1511 Yuan
I. Feelings and details of the trip
I left Wuhan on the evening of the 3rd and returned to Wuhan on the evening of the 8th.
Itinerary: Wuhan → Hangzhou (transit) → Shaoxing → Hangzhou (transit) → Suzhou → Shanghai → Jiashan Xitang → Hangzhou → Wuhan
First stop, starting from Wuhan, we booked a hard sleeper train ticket on the afternoon of the 3rd, and arrived in Hangzhou early on the 4th and transferred to Shaoxing.
On the train from Wuhan to Hangzhou, the bed is clean. It is 6: 11 a.m. when you arrive in Hangzhou, buy a ticket and go to Shaoxing.
The * * flight attendants on the train also have excellent service attitude. What a compliment!
free water before boarding.
clean and tidy carriage, haha, honey! Guess what? Wrong, the first row
First stop: Shaoxing (October 4th)
Rivers can be seen everywhere, flowing in front of and behind every house.
In the legendary brewing place of Gu Yue Long Shan, there are many goods ordered by friends from all over the country in the hall.
I, a little show, like this kind of hollow window.
an old Chinese doctor who carefully brewed medicine in a drugstore.
Art school students who like to capture this serious shot and concentrate on sketching.
aestheticism. . . Quiet living environment, people washing clothes at the bridge. . .
to Shaoxing, I have to go to a place. . .
I was just hungry, so I settled our lunch here.
the dish you must order when you enter the store is fennel beans and a dish of 6 yuan.
Dried beancurd, one for 4 yuan. It's so tempting. I forgot to take a picture. I took it in the middle of it, so I can't read it, hehe.
yellow rice wine, which I can't get used to, we didn't want it. Haha, we used ultra-dry beer with us instead. . .
hehe, go to Shaoxing. Of course, you can't miss this scenic spot. The scenic spots to be highlighted below, our literary giant, my * * worships the hometown of idol Mr. Lu Xun ... o (∩ _ ∩) o ...
Fortunately, when we went, tickets were free, and tickets were collected for free, which saved a lot of rice.
The famous saying of Lu Xun Memorial Hall
accompanied Mr. Lu Xun's life. The * * next to it is a tourist, not an accident.
Mr. Lu Xun's neat and simple room, old-fashioned carved big bed, with his picture hanging on the wall.
the wedding ceremony is very grand.
Panorama of Baicao Garden, the back garden of Lu Xun's family, is also a paradise for children, so I don't need to introduce it in detail. It is in the primary school textbooks.
three pools mirroring the moon, Lu Xun's seat, where the lights are on the left, is marked with a black sign on the wall.
I came out, got some air, bought a fan as a souvenir, and then showed off Shuai Shuai's LG, hehe. . .
Second stop: Suzhou (October 5th)
Originally, the next stop was intended to go to Xitang, because it was near Shaoxing, but we didn't know how long we could stay in Shaoxing and needed to stay overnight, so we booked a return ticket without getting off the bus. So, when we got to the station after the game, there was no bus or train to Xitang, so we had to go to Suzhou as far as possible, but there was no bus in Shaoxing at that time. The 4: 41 train leaves Shaoxing for Hangzhou Station at 6 o'clock. After getting off, book the train ticket to Suzhou. At 11: 31, it's still early, so I will go to my grandmother's house near the station to solve the dinner. The grandmother's house which is specially recommended is crowded and the food is superb. It's not expensive, but I have to wait in line by station. This meal only cost more than 41 yuan for three dishes, and the wine was still super dry that we brought with us, which was hard for my husband. I carried bags of dry food for my couple, and my stomach was bad, so I needed to eat less and eat more. Grandma's photos, when the camera was out of power, I took a few photos with my mobile phone, but the effect was not good, so I couldn't get them.
I can't remember when the bus arrived in Suzhou that night. After I bought the ticket for the next stop to Shanghai, it was already 2 or 3 in the morning, and then I went to find a hotel nearby. Because I have worked here before, I am familiar with it. Suzhou is really small, so I walk to the city center. We will ask if there is a light, but every family is full. At the peak of tourism, I finally asked one, asking for 498. The lighting at night was not bad. We stopped and asked several houses one after another, but they were all full. Later, we really couldn't walk. Look at the watch, it was after 3 o'clock. Forget it. Let's find an Internet cafe and wait for the morning. Sorry, so remind everyone that we must pay attention to the accommodation arrangements during the trip. We are at a loss, but fortunately, we saved a night's rice, so we can quote hundreds of dollars. We booked the special big bed room for the next night directly in the Internet cafe, and fortunately, we got it, the original price was 188 yuan, and the online reservation was only 138 yuan, and we also gave breakfast coupons, which was super cost-effective.
The next morning, we went to visit Shantang Street in Qili, Suzhou.
Shantang Street is located in the northwest of Suzhou, the ancient city. It is adjacent to Changmen, a first-class rich and romantic place in the world of mortals, and to Tiger Hill, the first scenic spot in Wuzhong, in the west. The total length is 3611 meters. Therefore, it is called "Qili Mountain Pond". Shantang Street was built in 825 AD, with a history of more than a thousand years. The newly-built Shantang Street we saw in this trip is very beautiful. The antique small streets and shops are very Suzhou-like, and all of them sell special snacks and special gifts. The buildings along the road and behind the river are also quite distinctive.
because I was tired, I handed over the house at 1 noon and came back to have a rest. In the afternoon, I went to Guanqian Road Pedestrian Street.
Ignore my dull expression. Oh, oh, hehe, I didn't have a good rest last night. I was too tired, and I still didn't recover.
Next to Guanqian Road is Bifengfang, a more prosperous snack street than Shangxiajiu in Guangzhou. It is recommended that "snacks between good people and famous people" is an improved Sichuan cuisine, which is not very spicy. Moreover, there are many snacks, the price is reasonable and the environment is comfortable. We ordered three side dishes to spend 38 yuan! Awesome! The family photo was only half eaten before I remembered to take a photo.
The next morning, we ended our trip to Suzhou with reluctance.
Third stop: Shanghai (October 6th)
We have arrived in Shanghai. Let's come to the magnificent Shanghai Railway Station first. There are still 217 days before the opening of the Expo. (Above: Expo bell tower in the square opposite the railway station, below: countdown board of subway station)
Haha, I bought an auspicious treasure, Xiu Xiu. Isn't it cute? Later, I regretted it a little, but I took it with me all the way, especially in the next trip. When other tourists saw it, they all said that the return rate from Shanghai was 111%, which was embarrassing. . .
Madame Tussauds Wax Museum, the entrance fee is 135 meters, but we didn't go in. Information: Madame Tussauds Shanghai is the sixth Madame Tussauds wax museum in the world after London, Amsterdam, new york, Las Vegas and Hongkong. There are more than 71 wax figures of Chinese and foreign celebrities in the museum. They come from different fields such as science and technology, politics and economics, performing arts and sports, including Audrey Hepburn, Elvis Presley, Clinton and Putin, as well as China's favorite stars such as Liu Xiang, Yao Ming and Jackie Chan. We went shopping, but didn't go in. Oh, hehe
Audrey Hepburn, a famous film actress, is one of the top ten most popular wax figures. There is a photography studio next to the exhibition hall. The business is good. It is specially for tourists to take photos with her. The cost is 31 meters. We took this by ourselves.
There's no need to explain this, Jackie Chan. It's just so famous that it was taken through the glass.
The wax museum also saw some stars, such as Liu Xiang and Andy Lau, which are worth seeing. In line with the principle of economy, we all watch it, hehe. . . Parents who have Mimi can also buy tickets to go in and have a look.
The following is the Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street. Personally, except for the wider streets and more people, the business atmosphere is similar to that of Shangxiajiu in Guangzhou and Jianghan Road in Wuhan, and the attractions are the iconic old shops on both sides of the road.
The advertisement on the sightseeing electric car on Nanjing Road is actually advertised in Xitang, which strengthens our idea of going to this ancient town which is not well-known at present. We have dropped the other two that we have been considering, Zhouzhuang and Wuzhen, and what we want is the more original ecological feeling. _
Come to two People's Parks. It seems that it is a bit extravagant to visit the parks now, hehe, but I like this casual feeling.
My aunt, who concentrates on Tai Chi in the park, practiced so well that passers-by stopped to watch. . .
the railway comes first! China comes first! ! Number one in the world! ! ! Shanghai South Railway Station is a landmark building in Shanghai. After seeing the world's number one circular railway station, we will go to Shanghai South Railway Station and transfer to Xitang, our key tourist destination.
the fourth stop: Xitang (from the evening of October 6th to 7th)
Xitang, commonly known as the ancient town with a thousand years of life, is the first batch of famous historical and cultural towns in China, the national AAA** tourist scenic spot, and the most attractive film and television base in the water town, whether it's Mission Impossible 3 in Hollywood or the youth drama My Youth Who's in Charge, which was a hit last year. . Xitang, a civilian town, everything seems so simple, without the prosperity of Zhouzhuang, the rich state of looking south, and the strong commercial atmosphere. The whole thing is a kind of original ecological beauty!
We arrived at Jiashan Station by train from Shanghai on the evening of October 7th. After leaving the station, a young man greeted us and asked about Xitang. He provided accommodation and a special bus to take us to the town, and guaranteed the tickets to the scenic spot the next day. The price was 211 yuan a night. We didn't want it, and we were going to take the bus by ourselves according to the strategy we searched online in advance, but the man immediately reduced the price, saying that it would be 111. Seeing that he always followed us, he looked very enthusiastic, and it was not expensive (the online ticket was 111/ person), so we got on his bus, and then he took us all the way to the edge of town, stopped and said that we would have to pay 51 tickets for each person, and then add accommodation. My heart was half cold, and I knew that I had been slaughtered. We said we didn't want him to pay for the tickets, so we bought them ourselves, but he didn't agree. Then I made a counter-offer with him for 151, and my husband resolutely refused to live in his house (in his later words, he didn't know how dark it was, so he quickly got out of the tiger's mouth) and let him drive back to the railway station the same way, provided, of course, that we had to compensate him for the fare to and from 21 yuan. This episode wasted more than 1 hours of our time and seriously affected the mood of the journey. Here, I strongly despise this kind of soliciting behavior and remind everyone not to be fooled.
Fortunately, we returned to Jiashan Station and caught the last bus to Xitang. 3.5 yuan/people were all tourists who came to visit Xitang at night. Now we have company. Then, we spoke Mandarin with different accents in the car, and we communicated together, and soon we were in Xitang again, hehe, tossing and turning. . . Later, we went together to find a place to live in the town, and learned that there are many private family hotels nearby, which are much cheaper than those near the river in the scenic spot. Finally, we checked into a hotel called Qingqing Yard, 121/ night, the price was reasonable near the scenic spot and the environment was quiet. The shop owner's daughter went to college in other places, and stayed at home on the 11th holiday. She was about the same age as us and was very kind to others. She introduced us to many scenic spots and matters needing attention. More importantly, we learned from her that it was free to enter the scenic spot before eight o'clock in the morning, which saved us another 211 meters, haha. . .
tidy up the residence, put away the things, and we can't wait to visit Xitang at night. O(∩_∩)O~ takes photos:
Xitang night scene
Beautiful river lanterns. Colorful river lanterns stacked with waxed paper bear one hope after another. The aunt who sells river lanterns tells us that different colors represent different wishes, and the most suitable color is chosen for what you want. Red represents love, * * represents wealth, purple represents luck and blue represents status. . .
Our dinner is chosen here, with a very kind name: Mommy Kitchen, which is located in the corridor along the river. The weight of the food is relatively small, and the cheapest price is more than 11 yuan, but the taste is not bad, and the original feeling. I don't recommend it. I suggest going to another small shop called Qiantang Renjia. At that time, there were many people and we couldn't make it.
three dishes: stewed lion's head, scrambled eggs with lettuce, and dried fried fish in the farmhouse. Plus a bottle of beer, the cost is 58 meters, which is a little expensive.
The specialty bar, "only sells romance, not arranged love", is a brilliant slogan of the store.
because we were tired, we went back to the rented family hotel to sleep after a visit, and prepared to get up early the next day and enter the scenic spot.
at 7 o'clock the next morning, we arrived at the scenic spot, and it was not completely bright, hehe. . . Xitang in the morning is completely different from that at night.
the lazy cats in the town feel very obedient. Later, many similar cats were discovered one after another, and they enjoyed the quiet life here, as if the arrival of tourists had nothing to do with it.
weeping willows are weeping willows. I like this feeling very much. It is not bad with my newly bought shawl, is it? I bought the shawl in a small shop last night. It's 12 meters. It's awesome!
from another angle, the scenery on the other side is also good. . .
Groups of wupeng boats, once in 31 yuan, can reach every corner of the town, allowing you to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the whole town.
I saw the cat again, and I looked at him with another child, and I turned my head shyly, little sample. . . O(∩_∩)O~
How about the shooting point of Mission Impossible 3? Did you find the lens in the film?
Finally, come to Zhang, Linshui Tea House. I like the style and location of this quaint building very much. It's so pleasant to have a cup of green tea here without the noise of the city.
farewell, Xitang, we will come again when we have time.
at 3 pm, we left for another paradise on earth and our last stop: Hangzhou.
Last stop: Hangzhou (evening of 7th-8th)
Let's have a dinner in Hangzhou on the evening of 7th, which is very interesting. Look, I'm so hungry. I just got off the train.
The next day we went to visit the West Lake.
Since I have visited the Dragon Boat Festival before, I plan to go straight up the mountain this time.
In the last photo, our only photo was taken by a fellow traveler who offered us help. I would like to thank this kind brother for his blessing. I didn't expect that in October after that, I quoted this photo to participate in the "Giving diamonds for love" activity of Wuhan Evening News, and I won a prize and got a small diamond. Of course, this is another story.
the yue temple located next to the west lake. When you see the couplets of "thirty fame, dust and earth, eight thousand miles of clouds and moon", you can't help but feel Yue Fei's broad and intense feelings.
I met one of my fellow villagers in Hangzhou Tourism Bureau on the mountain, took my parents to play, came in with him, and saved dozens of meters of tickets!
Song Yue Ewangmu and Yue Yun Yiguan Tomb
Iron-cast portraits, with hands behind their backs, kneeling in front of the tomb, Zhang Jun who framed Yue Fei, and Wan Yi who cast iron portraits, with hands behind their backs, kneeling in front of the tomb, and Qin Gui and Wang who framed Yue Fei
So far, our trip has basically ended. Next, we will make up some photos of the Dragon Boat Festival in Qinghefang Commercial Street.
The tea culture in Hangzhou, look at the bartender behind me, they are all the same.
