from Huaihua. I entered from Huaihua when I went there.
To go to the ancient town, it is better to stay in an inn by the river, and the scenery will be better. Both sides of the river are inns run by local residents. The living conditions are different, but the general inn is still very safe and comfortable. If you stay in Fenghuang ancient city for a long time, you can consider living by the river for the first few days and living in a quiet street in the ancient city for the next few days. If the time is short, just live by the river, there are also cheap ones. If you go in the off-season, the price of the inn will be cheaper. If it is in the peak season, the price will rise several times, more than 3.
The specialties here are: duck with blood sauce (about 25-45 yuan), fish with pickled vegetables, and tofu boiled in sour soup. There are many other dishes, all of which are good. People who like Hunan cuisine should quite like the taste here. Ginger sugar and kiwi slices are also specialties.
There are many characteristic bars on both sides of the river. If you go, you must go in and sit down. There are also handmade trinkets sold by local people on both sides, which are very distinctive and inexpensive.
the cost is the inn where you stay. In the off-peak season, the accommodation fee is 2 yuan per night, as well as the money for eating and buying souvenirs and special products. Since you are from Harbin, it is estimated that the travel expenses will be higher, but actually it is not very expensive in Phoenix.
