1. By car: buy Chengdu - Tongren train. (Buy night six o'clock sleeper, sleep on the train, so you can save money on the hotel, the next morning more than eight o'clock to Tongren) I was buying to Huaihua, the ticket price is 208, to Tongren should be more than one hundred and ninety
2. Get off the car: out of the station is simply to go forward, walk a hundred meters or so you can see the opposite side of the passenger station, go in and buy a ticket to the Phoenix can be full of people to send the car. Fares are: 23
3. After getting off the bus, if you still want to save a dollar, follow the crowd on the line, will go through a city gate, you will see the river. The bus is just one stop away, so it's not really worth it, and it's not really clear where to sit. I was trying to save a dollar by following the bus all the way, and it didn't go very far.
4. As long as you don't have a big holiday, there are stores everywhere, so you don't need to book in advance, sometimes the booking is expensive. If you're not too heavy, you can find a store while you're walking around, and you can get a standard room with a shower for 60 bucks, although it's a little shabbier. The better ones are also expensive, depending on your spending.
5. Some stores will ask you if you want to watch the party at night, the price is about 60 or so, voluntary.
6. Bar consumption. Phoenix riverside are bars, I was a girl to go, so they did not enter, I do not know the consumption.
7. Eat: locals go to a place called "Ambassador Hotel" to eat, only the most authentic, blood poop duck, sour soup fish and so on, the price is normal, not expensive. Evening want to eat stalls best not to go to the Hongqiao that, because that is next to the tourists to eat, the taste is general. The locals eat stalls in the new city, is out of the Ambassador Hotel to the left all the way to the night walk to the right to see the stalls. Here is for the locals to eat, the flavor is good, but the price does not feel as good as the Ambassador Hotel. Snacks and other things just buy, are not expensive.
8. Girls are willing to wear clothes to take pictures, rent a dress on five dollars, randomly take pictures of themselves, looking for them to take pictures can be expensive, find a stranger is better than looking for them.
9. canoeing. Because before I heard friends say that the heat will raise the water, if you wear a good boat, with a camera, it is easy to go down to be dialed all the water, so I did not pan, the price is not expensive, dozens of dollars, depending on whether you dare to be splashed.
The above is about right, a **** how much money you need you can add yourself. As for the kind of set of tickets to visit, do not recommend that you go, spend money for nothing but also nothing to see.
