Traveling to Fenghuang Ancient City Essay 1 During the holidays, my parents and I traveled to the famous Fenghuang Ancient City.
Fenghuang Ancient City is located in the west of Hunan. It is one of the rare small towns with Miao characteristics in China. It is named after a mountain in the southwest that resembles a flying phoenix.
In the city, there is a river running through the city, called Tuojiang River, which is the mother river here. Most of the scenery is concentrated on both sides of the Tuojiang River, including gray tile stone-based stilted buildings, smooth stone roads, and exquisite stone buildings.
The arch bridge and the ancient waterwheel, driven by water power, gurgling, babbling, spinning tirelessly, formed the unique style of the Miao family.
In the ancient city during the day, a lively atmosphere surrounded me.
There are many girls in national costumes. They wear silver jewelry and make "ding-dong-ding-ding" sounds when they walk, which is very interesting.
Not to mention the snacks, bacon, ginger candy, plum blossom cake and other snacks made people salivate, and everyone rushed to buy them.
I tried the specialty here - ginger candy. It was sweet at first, but at the end of the meal, there was suddenly a slight ginger flavor, a little spicy, and a unique flavor.
We also visited many other scenic spots in Fenghuang Ancient City, such as the Three Princes' Mansion, the Yang Family Ancestral Hall, and the Former Residence of Shen Congwen... which gave me an immersive experience of their era.
At night, Fenghuang Ancient City is brightly lit and lively.
The red lanterns and colorful light strips hanging on the ancient buildings and Hongqiao all lit up. It became a world of ocean light, and the Tuojiang River seemed to be wearing a colorful dress.
The paths along the river were crowded with people, and it was almost impossible to get through.
There are a variety of specialty shops with a dazzling array of products that are dizzying to see.
The music on the street is deafening, and the passion of the owner is everywhere reflected.
It wasn't until midnight that the town slowly became quiet, and the tired people fell into sweet dreams... We reluctantly left the ancient city of Fenghuang. Its simplicity, beauty, bustle and prosperity are all deeply left in my memory.

Traveling to Phoenix Ancient City Essay 2 In the morning, the sun was shining brightly. My brother and I were woken up by our father in our sleep. My brother and I immediately jumped up and rushed to the bathroom to wash up. Then we immediately changed clothes, packed our luggage and went downstairs to have breakfast.
When we got down to the restaurant, "Tian Dao" was already waiting for us.
My godmother helped my brother and I find a seat with air conditioning to sit down.
"Tian Dao" told us to meet downstairs at 8 o'clock sharp... After gathering, we got on the bus we took yesterday. "Tian Dao" explained to me that today's itinerary was to "Phoenix Ancient City" and said that we would go there.
After a five-hour drive, everyone was lamenting and feeling bad.
But when "Tian Dao" explained the scenery of "Phoenix Ancient City" to us along the way, we felt that five hours had passed quickly.
In the afternoon, we can finally go to the "ancient city".
When we entered the ancient city, we saw many "diaojiao buildings". In front of the "diaojiao buildings" was a branch of the river. The water was not very deep, but the bottom was crystal clear. You could also see algae. I couldn't help but touch the river water. The water was as cold as ice.
Touching the cool river water, I seemed to see the blue sky reflected in the clear river water, making it look bluer. The "diaojilou" reflected in the clear river water looked more classic.
Suddenly, someone patted me from behind. It turned out to be my mother. She asked, "Why don't you hurry up and take more photos?" I agreed.
Along the way we saw many people having fun playing in the water.
We came to the cruise point and took the boat. I took off my shoes and rolled up my pants. The shallowest water in the river was only thirty centimeters. Obviously I couldn't swim in it, but I was happy to feel the river water.
Later, we each bought a souvenir and then went to have dinner.
"The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but I'm afraid it will be dusk." At that time, water lanterns were lit up in the river.
We watched the water lanterns while eating, and to celebrate we drank several glasses of local liquor.
We didn’t know what these lanterns were for, so we asked the villagers, and they said that people who light these lanterns make their wishes and then float down the river... We returned to the local hotel, took a shower and went to bed because I was too tired.

Traveling to Fenghuang Ancient City Essay 3 If Zhangjiajie is an exquisite landscape painting, then Fenghuang Ancient City is the finishing touch on the painting; if Zhangjiajie is a brocade bag embroidered with flowers, then Fenghuang Ancient City is the dazzling light from above.
A pearl.
When I think of Fenghuang Ancient City, my whole body seems to be surrounded by an ancient atmosphere.
I have experienced the magnificence of Mount Tai, and admired the wonders of Guilin’s landscapes, but none of them impressed me as deeply as the ancient city of Fenghuang.
Small bridges, flowing water, green tiles and low buildings, the fresh smell made me feel energetic.
There are red lanterns hanging under the eaves of every house, which makes people feel like they are thousands of years ago.
On some small stools by the door, several old men wearing Miao costumes were chatting happily.
On the small wooden bridge, a beautiful Miao girl walked with light steps while humming a little tune.
Everything seemed so harmonious and peaceful.
On the eaves, a few birds sang sweet and wonderful notes leisurely.
By the river, the willow trees let the wind hold its slender waist delicately, and at the same time played with its long green hair like a show off.
A butterfly was attracted by a pink flower. It kept flapping its patterned wings, as if it wanted to dance for this beautiful scenery.
