Wuzhen, a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, is one of the best water towns in recent years, so I went there on the weekend. Because Wuzhen is not far from Fuzhou, and it is a half-day drive, I don't want to waste this wonderful time with the group, so I chose to travel freely.
How to get there:
Buy the motor train in Tongxiang first. I take flight D3 102, depart from Fuzhou at 7: 40, 13: 17 and arrive in high-speed railway station, Tongxiang, with a second-class seat of 23 1 yuan. (The high-speed rail should be faster now) There is a K282 bus from high-speed railway station Square to Wuzhen Bus Station, and the fare is 5 yuan. Here's something to spit out about K282. Wuzhen is good everywhere, but the traffic is too bad and there is no point-to-point bus. The bus is very small and there are more than 30 stops on the road. Even if 90% of the people coming down from high-speed railway station are tourists, even if no one gets off and gets on the bus along the way, only this bus can take the bus, and those who get on the bus late can only squeeze for an hour. If this car can be changed into a special bus to the scenic spot, even if the ticket price is raised, at least one person can be guaranteed to have a seat. Rich local tyrants can consider renting a car, and the specific cost is unknown. After arriving at Wuzhen Bus Station, transfer to K350 bus to Tashi (fare 2 yuan, 7. 8 minutes by car)
Where to live: Accommodation is also a matter of different opinions. Because I am very particular about accommodation, I booked a room in Wuzhen B&B on the official website in advance. Accommodation in Wuzhen is divided into inside and outside the scenic spot. Hotels in the scenic spot are all owned by Wuzhen Tourism Group, and most of them are tall and expensive. If you want to eat and live well, go to the star-rated resort hotel for pillow water (unfortunately, it seems not to be near the main river); If you want to experience the water town, you must go to Wuzhen B&B; Local tyrants suggested living in Shengting and Jintang Hangguan. Boutique hotels, Wang Jinli and Shuixiang Post are out of my consideration because of their relatively remote locations. As for the youth tours in scenic spots, they are suitable for single backpackers, not for families. So I booked a box at B&B this time.
Speaking of accommodation, I personally think we must live in Zhaxi Scenic Area. Because the tickets for the scenic spot are valid on the same day, you must buy tickets whether you live in or outside the scenic spot. But if you live in a scenic spot, your ticket will be upgraded to be valid for 2 days. In addition, Tashi closed at 6:5438+00 pm. After the tourists dispersed, it was really beautiful to quietly enjoy Wuzhen under the night. You can get up early the next morning, stroll around the alley and see the dragon-shaped flower sea by the way. Because the scenic spot opens at 9 o'clock, you will find it valuable to live in it after the influx of tourists.
By the way, the most reliable way to book a room in Wuzhen Zhaxi Scenic Area is to book it directly in official website, because the price is the same. At this time, it is useless for Ctrip to go to Taobao. This is called monopoly. Prices are divided into weekend and non-weekend prices, because this time is not right, and going on weekends is much more expensive. Friends who have holidays still suggest going on weekdays, which is cheap and few people. Moreover, the XX Inn and XX B&B you see are not rooms in the scenic spot, but all-in-one family hotels. Online comments are very good. I heard that the boss will drive to pick up things, but they are not in the scenic spot, which makes no sense at all. The only advantage is that it is cheap. It is more expensive in the scenic spot because it is a monopoly. As for the room type, I personally prefer the one facing the water. It is best to choose a room with a balcony. I live in a room on the balcony with a beautiful woman. It is very comfortable to drink tea and sunbathe on the balcony and watch Wu Peng's boats come and go. Of course, when you look at the scenery, the tourists on Wu Peng's boat are also looking at you. Think of yourself as a landscape. You can choose according to the instructions when booking a room. Different rooms are assigned to different inns. There are about 70 hotels along the Yangtze River, and your hotels will be automatically allocated according to the room type system. Fortunately, I got 29 hotels, which are right in the central area, so it's convenient to go anywhere. Except for a small room, all rooms are basically available, and the room rate includes breakfast. The landlord will let you check the breakfast list in advance, which is convenient and not wasteful.
Later, I made a small research on the homestay by the river, and found that the balcony room of the homestay is the best, because facing the main river, most of the rooms are concentrated in the central area, but the disadvantage is that the rooms are particularly small. General Wu's room looks high-end, but it seems far away. It's near the General Temple, and it doesn't feel close to the main river. Other big beds or double standard rooms are either facing the street or facing the scenery. Friends who like quiet can choose this room type.
B&B 1.5m balcony room is like this. You can refer to it
How to play: After arriving in Tashi in the afternoon, you can visit Zhaxi Street first, and there are some participating attractions to experience, such as Zhanghengxing Lantern Shop and Wu Tao Pavilion. I think it's more interesting to take the child and let her do DIY by herself than to go shopping or something. Other specialty stores are actually similar to most scenic spots in the country. You can stroll around if you are interested. If you are not interested, I think it is good to find a teahouse to drink tea. After dinner, I rented an awning boat and swam down the main river in Tashi at night. The scenery is beautiful. Tickets start from 60 yuan, and charters start from 360 yuan. If it's two big ones, 1, 1.2 meters for children, it's only 200 yuan, which is the most cost-effective. Personally, I think it is more artistic to take a boat in Tashi at night. You can go to Dongzha during the day, and the price is lower than Tashi.
If you are a photography enthusiast, I suggest you wait until after 10: 30, and the tourists are basically over. Only by visiting the ancient town quietly can we appreciate this quiet beauty. And the lights are turned off at 0/2 o'clock in the scenic spot/kloc-on weekends, so don't waste the night view that no one is disturbing.
The next morning, it's best to get up early and go to the Dragon Flower Sea to watch the sunrise, breathe fresh air and enjoy the flowers. Very comfortable. Go around and then go back to the inn for breakfast. Basic tourists also poured in at that time. Just stagger this time. After breakfast, you can suggest going to Dongzha first, because you have no experience for the first time. I went to Dongzha in the afternoon and missed some performances. There is a free shuttle bus from Tashi to Dongzha, which is only 5 minutes away. Compared with Tashi, Dongzha is smaller and more primitive, and the aborigines have not moved out. Most of the scenic spots are memorial halls, such as the former residence of contradiction and the hundred beds hall in the south of the Yangtze River. Some performances in Dongzha have time, so pay attention to the arrangements when visiting. It's a pity that I missed the performance of the high boat. There are only two performances a day, and it is also an intangible cultural heritage project in Wuzhen. It should be more interesting. My route to visit Dongzha is basically to go in along the street of the memorial hall and then take the wupeng boat out. The awning boat in Dongzha is cheaper than that in Tashi, and of course the waterway is short. We don't want to walk, so we have to take a boat. If you want to go shopping, you can go out from the other side, but the shops in tourist attractions are basically the same as Nanhou Street. I'm not interested anyway. The tour time of Dongzha is basically within 2 hours. I came back just in time for the hotel to check out. After check-out, the inn will be responsible for helping guests transport their luggage to the scenic service center for storage. So in the afternoon, you can continue to walk around Tashi's unfinished place, and then you can come back.
What to eat: The food in Wuzhen is actually very convenient and there are many choices. Just like the inn mentioned earlier, each inn has two tables. You can go in and ask the landlord to help you cook a table of home cooking. Every family has the same menu and the same price. The price is very reasonable, except that the landlord may have cooked it salty and light. But the key is to have a place, and the inn will not leave a place for you. This is called being in a hurry. We inquired all the way and found a seat in building 12. I cooked four dishes, 1 soup and beer drinks, and the total was only 166, which was very affordable. If you don't want to go to the inn for home cooking, there are other options. There are several famous restaurants in Wuzhen, such as the educated youth restaurant, the theme restaurant in the Republic of China and the spicy Wuzhen restaurant. You can experience it when you have a chance. In fact, I have been looking for Wuzhen small pot noodles, but I have been unable to find them, so I gave up. On the first night, at the Shusheng Mutton Restaurant, we ordered the signature mutton noodles, 38 portions, and the mutton was quite tender. Other street snacks, such as sesame cakes, radish cakes and Osmanthus Jelly, are all from 3 yuan. Anyway, we eat everywhere. Here, I would like to recommend Wu Meiqing. The plums in it are really delicious, a bag of 25.
This time, I happened to meet Wuzhen Drama Festival, and I didn't find a performance because of my short stay. I just saw many performing groups improvising in the street, or some people dressed strangely and doing performance art or something. Personally, I think Wuzhen is really suitable for walking slowly. If you have time, you can stay for 2 nights and play for 3 days, which will be easier.
