D1: K267 12:57 Beijing West Railway - the train Jishou
D2: 14:57 to Jishou railway station, a station Jishou Railway Station to the Phoenix long-distance car, after more than two hours to Phoenix, I got out after the walk to Hongqiao (taxi 2 yuan, with pricing starting at their general 3 kilometers is two dollars, taxis are "antelope"), to find Inn (near Hongqiao many Diaojiaolou, it is recommended Tuojiang two families lived near the Inn, or one day, we must live in the Diaojiaolou Linjiang years, because the next morning just get up and open the Diaojiaolou can see Hongqiao).
Description: Tuojiang people inns, Rangers bar, while Rangers also have a bar next to the inn no name, the boss is very nice, is the Mandarin poor off-season when the 40 yuan / S, the peak season for 100 yuan / Standard Room.
D3: Phoenix city walk around inside, You Shen Cong-wen's former residence (20 million), Xiong Xiling House (20 million), Yang shrine (shrine can be seen a lot of Phoenix, but they almost, tickets do not remember) and so on the afternoon boat to the Shen Cong-wen's tomb to look at the (round-trip tickets 30 yuan, you can continue up to the Peach Blossom Island, but only one path for the development of tourism, no meaning, to Peach Blossom Island, plus a boat needs money), to Kikunami Hill, Shen Cong-wen you can walk back to Phoenix after the tomb of the city, very close, but there will be another round boating Tuojiang charm. At night you can get to the other side of North Gate, recommended scenic House Inn (off-season 20 yuan / person, 40 yuan / standard room), a good boss, just Tiaoya right off. Ambassador Hotel night dining, cheap, and vegetables are full of volume. 4 by 50 yuan. Must be taste-brewed rice wine! Story of the evening can go to town bar (Tel :0743-3225960) take a ride chat days, where there are a lot of Mix, share experiences, but also free Internet access!
D4: yellow wire bridge, Allah, the South Wall, to be honest these places are really not up to much. Yellow wire bridge was built in the Tang Dynasty, and later the Qing Dynasty is used to prevent Unmanning Hmong rebels, Tang黄丝桥古城20 yuan / person, personally think that there is no need, because it is nothing to read. Village house to switch need to pay two dollars for cleaning expenses, leaving the ancient village from Yamen, Furui, etc., but it must be brought by the villagers to see, because if no one pointing, you will not find these places . Electric tricycles can sit out黄丝桥古城to Allah (1 yuan / person), fifth day of every Lunar New Year, 15, 25, have set. In the vicinity of the Miao and Tujia people will come to go to the market, and the scene is very grand, things are very cheap. However, if not go to the market the day you have nothing, there is no need to switch. Here you can sit to the Phoenix's long-distance trucks, the South, under the Great Wall (2 yuan / person). South Great Wall is now only a watch tower is the original, and the rest as if, like Badaling, all new, totally does not make sense to go! The Great Wall from the south the car back to Phoenix a lot, 3 yuan / person; Phoenix - Yellow Silk Bridge: 5 yuan / person.
Also: Yellow wire bridge near a Miao Village, which despite performing in nature, but not how to develop it's worth a go. Phoenix ride to the yellow wire bridge long-distance truck drivers would recommend you go to the (presumably, he will give a person a commission per bag), or themselves, but the tickets will not be discounted!
Night you can stand to eat in the city of Phoenix to Hongqiao road a lot, you can eat hot pot and barbecue, taste good, reasonable price! Diaojiaolou the hotel is not recommended to go for dinner, the price is very expensive, and the vegetables very small, and tastes normal! Bluestone pub meal can go to sit with me (near the House, Inn), were opened in Shenzhen, the boss is very warm, but also free Internet access.
D5: Mountain River is strongly recommended to take a look at the original Miao Village, chartered Phoenix - Mountain River 20 yuan / car, 30 minutes (Wu master 13,974,300,693), to the Mountain Town, after the government get off (the master can set the length, so that he the afternoon to pick, it is recommended 5 hours later then), asked the locals to a friend Village Road, need to take the path more than 1 hours, it is best to find people who take you to the town government (we are looking for the town government's science and technology the old cadres in Europe, were very good, he lead the way is not to the money, just hope more people understand here, but personally think this is very troublesome people). Friends Village in order to drum famous people there will be drums, it is recommended to bring a number of stationery to the little children, or buy their own woven cloth, even the poor bar!
Prior to departure, each to their village who control drum 20 yuan, and their drums were broken, repair drum needs money!
Wan Su Phoenix!
D6: Phoenix - Jishou (10 yuan / person), Jishou Bus Station and get off and pour into the Huayuan long-distance vehicle (climbing 15 yuan / person, but at least in Jishou turn more than 1 hours before departure; Express 20 yuan / person ), Huayuan Bus Station and get off, sitting Huayuan - chadong a small plane (5 yuan / person); chadong Shen Cong-wen into the beginning of the original land has never been developed in an old alley away feeling back to the past, Lara boat ride (3 wool / person), you can feel the Tracy and her grandfather, then pull the boats scenarios. To live the other side (of the Chongqing); Pro with shui river there is a Hong An hotels, but health conditions, a problem (10 yuan / person), recommended: Hong An hostels right too, there is a tuck shops, and shopkeepers can be consulted Aunt living to her house, you can wash 10 yuan / person. Accommodation can be arranged after the rent of the boat to Tracy to go take a look at and listen to crew talk about the history of that era. Tracy really this man Yo!
D7: early in the morning to get up to the old alley of the restaurant to eat breakfast, and then sit chadong - Huayuan a small face, Huayuan get off, sit Huayuan - Jishou long-distance car, Aizhai (you can tell her to go to the next junction Deben vehicles), and then take small pieces of about 2 yuan / person (we're not sitting, it was not clear). To De Ben Miao Village. Deben junction Aizhai to 5 kilometers away from Miao Village, but the scenery along the way very good, it is recommended to make a re-ride.
Deben tickets 48 yuan / person, can cross the Miao Village to quicksand Falls, 20min walk around quicksand waterfall is very beautiful, a great gap, it is worthwhile to see.
15:00, Miao Village, there are performances, but they are professional troupe of performers, and personally believe that no means!
Reading performance, the car to the Aizhai, and then sit Huayuan - Jishou long-distance car, more than 1 hours. Jishou long distance from the station, a taxi to the train station 3 yuan.
Buy Jishou - Changsha train, 88 yuan / person hard seat.
Or buy Beijing West train tickets, off-season should be able to buy a sleeper 370 / person (capped).
Western Hunan is worth slowly to taste, beautiful scenery can be seen everywhere, but the good people are rare, few, like so simple as Xiangxi good people.
So, even if it is winter in the cold and wet in western Hunan, your heart is still warm!
