Hello, drive from Chengdu to Hubei and Hunan, visit Enshi Grand Canyon, Zhangjiajie, Fenghuang Ancient City and Changsha and return to Chengdu. This route will go backwards according to the order of play arranged in your question. We should try our best to avoid going backwards when designing the self-driving route scheme. Taking the circular route can increase more play experience. It is suggested that the chosen tour sequence should be Chengdu-Enshi Grand Canyon-Zhangjiajie-Changsha-Fenghuang Ancient City-Chengdu. You can reach it in one day from Fenghuang Ancient City to Chengdu, or you can take a stopover in Chongqing. Let's use a picture to illustrate the planning idea of this route.
In the picture, 1 is Enshi Grand Canyon, 2 is Zhangjiajie, and 3 is Fenghuang Ancient City. If you go to Fenghuang Ancient City first and then to Changsha, you need to go back to Fenghuang Ancient City from Changsha and then to Chengdu via Chongqing. Choose to go to Changsha directly from Zhangjiajie, and then go to Fenghuang Ancient City after Changsha's visit. Take a loop and add a passing point, Changde Taohuayuan, as a rest adjustment, because the trip a few days ago was mainly based on climbing mountains, which will be tiring. On the way from Zhangjiajie to Changsha, there is Changde Taohuayuan, which can be played by the way, so it is smoother to walk and you can play one more place. First, determine the driving route, which is divided into two stages.
Before planning a self-driving route, if we have a determined destination, we need to design the driving route according to the sightseeing situation of the scenic spots. From the scenic spots you have determined, Enshi Grand Canyon and Zhangjiajie are both very exhausting scenic spots, especially Zhangjiajie, Wulingyuan, Tianzishan and Jin Bianxi, which basically climb mountains and walk. Although there are ropeways, they have to walk at least 1 miles every day.
Therefore, according to this situation, the basic principle of our driving arrangement is not to be too compact, especially from the end of the trip to Enshi Grand Canyon to Zhangjiajie, we should try our best to slow down the pace.
according to the scenic spots determined along the route, the whole driving route can be divided into two stages, the first stage is Chengdu-Enshi Grand Canyon-Zhangjiajie-Changde-Changsha, and the second stage is Changsha-Fenghuang Ancient City-Chishui-Chengdu, which is about 13 kilometers. Plus the distance between the two sections and the hotel, the total mileage is about 29 kilometers.
According to the scenic spots set in your topic, list the driving route map, and find out whether there are other places around the road that are suitable for sightseeing. It is suggested that you should always pay attention to searching for scenic spots near the road during a long-distance self-driving trip, and sometimes you will miss a place with high degree of sightseeing if you are not careful. Go on road trip can't just drive and swim, but also take the initiative to find it, which can also be called "self-driving to find a tour". Second, determine the basic itinerary and increase scenic spots along the way
In the first stage, there are three routes from Chengdu to Changsha
There are roughly the same distance from Chengdu to the first stop Enshi Grand Canyon. Nanchong and Dazhou are recommended, and the traffic volume along this road is relatively small. Enshi Grand Canyon suggests to visit for 2 days, and then go to Zhangjiajie for 4-5 days. On the way from Zhangjiajie to Changsha, you can rest in Changde Taohuayuan.
Changsha to Chengdu in the second stage
There is basically nothing particularly worth visiting when you return to Chengdu from Changsha and pass through Fenghuang Ancient City. When you return to Chengdu after visiting Fenghuang Ancient City, you need to pay attention here. There are two main routes to choose from. One is to take Chongqing and visit Chongqing for about 2 days. The other one takes Zunyi and Chishui and plays along the way; It is recommended to take the route of Chishui. Chishui is a place worth visiting, and it is a relatively small place with good scenery and few tourists. This tour will take about 4 days. Third, detailed itinerary and food and accommodation recommendations
On the first day, Chengdu-Lichuan Tenglong Cave-Enshi Grand Canyon, the driving distance is about 62 kilometers
Today, the main play arrangement is Tenglong Cave. It takes about 6.5 hours to get to Tenglong Cave from Chengdu, about 2 pm, and the ticket for Tenglong Cave is 16 yuan, which is relatively expensive. In fact, the main reason for arranging here is that the Qixingzhai Scenic Area in Enshi Grand Canyon is not open at present, so
At present, Tenglong Cave is the largest cave in China, mainly for enjoying various natural wonders and watching performances. There is still a distance from the tourist center to the entrance of the cave. It is suggested to take the scenic bus to the entrance of the cave at 1 yuan's expense. After entering the entrance of the cave, take the battery car in the cave all the way to the back hole to watch all kinds of wonders and laser shows in the cave. After watching the performances, take the battery car back to the entrance of the cave to watch the Tujia song and dance performances. It takes about 3 hours to play and watch the performances in the whole scenic spot. After the tour, stay near Enshi Grand Canyon Scenic Area.
The temperature in TIPS Tenglong Cave is relatively low, so it is necessary to prepare thicker clothes in advance. There is also a 2 yuan who rents clothes at the entrance of the cave. The performance time of the laser show in the cave is 3: 2 pm, and the song and dance performance is 4: 3. Pay attention to the time and don't miss it.
Today's food and accommodation recommendations
Accommodation hotels suggest choosing Nverzhai Resort Hotel near the ticket office of Enshi Grand Canyon, and you can walk to the scenic spot by putting your car at the hotel. The price in December is about 35 yuan a night. If the accommodation is cheaper, the price of the farmhouse hotel is about 1-15; There are many farmer's restaurants around Enshi Grand Canyon, which recommend Tujia bacon, Tujia sesame seed cake, sauced pig's trotters, steamed rice cakes and kang potato, etc. The average consumption per capita is about 7 yuan.
On the second day, Enshi Grand Canyon-Yunlong Ground Fissure-enshi tusi castle, the driving distance is about 6 kilometers.
There are two major tours in Enshi Grand Canyon, namely Qixingzhai and Yunlong Ground Fissure. However, Qixingzhai was temporarily closed on October 3rd due to potential address problems, and the opening date is yet to be determined. Therefore, at present, only Yunlong Ground Fissure can be visited, and the tour time is about 2 hours, mainly to enjoy the nature such as rivers and waterfalls along the way. After playing at noon, I will have dinner in a nearby farmhouse, and then drive to enshi tusi castle for about 1 hour.
Tusi City is built by imitating castles where Tusi lived during the period of ancient Tusi system, which presents the lifestyle and customs of ancient Tujia people and Tusi in various forms, mainly visiting Jiujin Hall of Wangfu and Tusi City Wall, and getting tickets to 5 yuan. You can also rent clothes to take photos and taste various snacks. The whole play time takes about 2-3 hours.
Tips there will be a Tujia folk show in Tusi city at 3pm, so when you come from the Grand Canyon, you should make good time so as not to miss it.
Today's food and accommodation recommendation
The homestay in Daughter City is recommended for night accommodation. The night view is very beautiful, and there are many local snacks in Daughter City. It is also recommended to eat snacks here for dinner. At night, you can also participate in the bonfire waving dance in your daughter's city. The standard price of lodging in a homestay is around 3, and it is recommended to taste snacks such as fragrant oil, Tujia dregs-dropping sesame cake, baked rice cake, mixed dregs, etc., and the normal per capita consumption in the snack street is about 4-5 yuan.
On the third day, Enshi-Lion Pass-Zhangjiajie, the driving distance is about 3 kilometers.
Today, I went to Zhangjiajie from Enshi, and recommended a Lion Pass scenic spot in online celebrity. If you often play Tik Tok, you will see a floating bridge in a green water, and the car drove past and made ripples, that is, Lion Pass. This place is about 6 kilometers away from Enshi, and it is also the only way to Zhangjiajie, so I suggest going on a trip. You can drive into the Lion Pass to play. The ticket to 12 yuan is mainly to experience the online celebrity pontoon bridge by car. The rest of the scenery feels ordinary in December, especially drifting, which is still a big highlight in summer.
Tips it's inconvenient to eat in the lion pass. I suggest that you can prepare some fast food yourself if you want to play for a long time, or there is a Shadaogou town where you can have lunch after coming out of the scenic spot and before taking the expressway along the 29 National Road.
Arriving in Zhangjiajie in the afternoon, there are many scenic spots in Zhangjiajie, which add up to more than 1, and the price of a single ticket is higher than that of 1 yuan. The specific length of your visit depends on your own actual situation. If you visit all the places, it is estimated that one week is not enough. According to the principle of choosing the best scenic spots to visit, it is suggested to give priority to Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, Tianmen Mountain and Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon, as well as Huanglong Cave, Baofeng Lake and Tujia Style Garden. In particular, the winged flight of Tianmen Mountain and the glass bridge, which are popular on the Internet, are highly recommended.
Today's diet and accommodation recommendation
Accommodation in Zhangjiajie should be selected according to the scenic spots you will visit. Since self-driving is not allowed in the scenic spots, you can choose to stay in the urban area, leave your car at the gate of the scenic spot when you are playing, and take the bus of the scenic spot during the tour. Generally, the price of accommodation in ordinary hotels is around 2, and it is better to be above 5. During the visit to Zhangjiajie, Tujia is the main food. Tujia-style chicken, three pots, loach-drilled tofu, peasant stir-fried meat, sour fish and so on are all local representative foods, with spicy taste and high consumption level, and the average per capita consumption is about 8-1 yuan per meal.
On the fourth day, it takes about 8-1 kilometers to walk in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, the first line of Tianzi Mountain.
Little knowledge about Zhangjiajie
Zhangjiajie is really too big. If time permits, we can follow the main scenic spot National Forest Park for 3 days, Zhangjiajie Tianmen Mountain for 1 day and Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon (glass plank road) for 1 day. This is the main play part, and the essence play part is Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, which is Wuling. It takes three days to play only the essence of this scenic spot, and four days to play deeply, and it takes a lot of roads every day, which is a great test for physical strength. We mainly introduce the most essential parts of Zhangjiajie: National Forest Park and Grand Canyon.
Today, Wulingyuan recommends a tour route. After entering from the ticket gate of Wulingyuan, take the scenic bus to Shili Gallery, and then transfer to a small train to climb the mountain on foot. All the way to climb the mountain, you have to climb over five hills to reach the top of the mountain to watch Yubi Peak. After watching it, you can return to the Nantianmen by the original road. After going down the mountain, you can take the cableway to Tianzi Mountain, He Long Park, WulongZhai and the other direction. I need to remind you here that there are many wild monkeys in the scenic spot, so you must take care of your things. It is best to lock the zipper on your backpack, and the monkeys will open the backpack and turn over the food.
Tips as you come down from the mountain, considering that you will visit the first line of Jin Bianxi the next day, you need to stay at the south gate of the scenic spot today, and then go to the east gate after visiting the first line of Jin Bianxi the next day, so that you can visit the first line of Yuanjiajie later.
On the fifth day, Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, the first line of Jin Bianxi, takes about 8 kilometers to walk all day.
Today, I visited another classic route of the forest park, from Huangshizhai to Jin Bianxi. First, I went up the mountain from the cableway of Huangshizhai, visited the top of the mountain, then walked down the mountain, visited the scenic spots such as Dinghai Shenzhen and Dianjiangtai along the way, and finally walked along Jin Bianxi (all of which are very flat cement paths) for about 6 kilometers to Shuihu Gate.
On the 6th day, Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, Yuanjiajie Line, Bailong Elevator, it takes about 6-7 kilometers to walk all day.
Today, to visit Yuanjiajie Line, first, take the scenic bus to Bailong Elevator, then take the elevator up the mountain. After playing on the mountain, take the bus to the Hanging Garden, where the gods will station troops, then go to Xianren Bridge, Yuanjiajie, the first bridge in the world, and return to Jin Bianxi until you walk around the water and return by bus.
The whole tour of Zhangjiajie is rather tiring. Basically, it's all about climbing mountains and walking, but the scenery is also very beautiful, with infinite scenery and physical and mental fatigue. How to play depends on your actual situation. In addition, it should be noted that there will be many peddlers soliciting customers during the visit in Zhangjiajie, so be careful not to take any notice to avoid into the pit.
On the 7th day, the trip to Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon-Changde Taohuayuan is about 23 kilometers.
Since I have been climbing mountains in Zhangjiajie for three days in a row, I suggest that I only visit the glass bridge of the Grand Canyon, instead of hiking in the Grand Canyon. When I buy tickets, I only need to buy tickets for the glass bridge, and each person will pay 138 yuan plus 5 yuan for shoes and 5 yuan for deposit. The experience of the whole glass bridge is different for everyone, but as a scenic spot in online celebrity, it is recommended to go. As for the play effect, different people have different opinions. After coming down from the glass bridge, go to Changde Peach Blossom Garden.
Peach Blossom Garden is named after Tao Yuanming's famous Peach Blossom Garden, and the whole scenic spot is not very big. It is suggested that 2 yuan take a battery car tour, stay in the hotel at night, and watch the performance of Peach Blossom Garden by boat. Choosing this place is mainly a rest stop on the way, and it will be tiring to get to Changsha directly.
Today's food and accommodation recommendations
The average inn in Taohuayuan is cheaper, about 1-15, and the price of a better boutique inn is 3-5 yuan. The food recommended is tea, duck in soy sauce, rice noodles, spicy meat, etc. The taste is spicy, and the per capita consumption is around 6 yuan.
On the eighth day, it's about 2 kilometers by car from Changde Taohuayuan to Changsha.
It takes about 3 hours to get to Changsha from Changde Taohuayuan. When you arrive in the morning, you can visit Yuelu Mountain first and get tickets to 5 yuan. It takes about 2 hours to play, mainly visiting Yuelu Academy, Love Evening Pavilion, Yunlu Palace, one of the four ancient academies, and many ancient buildings in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The tour route is recommended to enter from the east gate of Yuelu Mountain, then take the cableway and bus to Yuelu Academy and Aiwan Pavilion, and return by the same way after the tour.
Orange Island is mainly for viewing the scenery of Xiangjiang River and taking a boat trip. The trip route is to go back to the original road, and it takes about 3 kilometers to walk. It is suggested that Hua 2 yuan take a battery car to the Zhijiangshan directly, otherwise it will be tiring to walk.
Today's diet and accommodation recommendations
There are many snacks in Changsha, with Hunan cuisine as the representative, such as fish head with chopped pepper, fat sausage in a dry pot, chicken in a local pot, braised pork in Mao Shi, steamed bacon, etc. These are all local delicacies, and the per capita consumption is about 8-5%. In addition, snacks in Changsha, such as tasty shrimp, stinky tofu, and sugar and oil Baba, are also very distinctive. Pozi Street is the gathering place of Changsha snacks, and there are various kinds of flour, steamed dumplings, pot dumplings, etc., which are worth recommending. The normal per capita consumption is 5-6 yuan. The price of a general business hotel is about 15-2.
On the 9th day, Changsha-Shaoshan-Fenghuang Ancient City, the driving distance is about 48 kilometers
