800 yuan.... ...5 days... Hunan Phoenix tour...
Rainbow Bridge to see the Tuojiang River
If you are interested in Phoenix, first of all, you need to arrange the time, try not to choose the golden week of May 1, 11 to go (said now has been canceled the golden week of May 1 is not it), and there is the Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Ching Ming, these newly added festivals, and the students' summer vacation, the reasons I give are as follows
1.crowd In these Holidays, travel agencies to Phoenix will be a lot of people, I believe you do not want to see in this quiet period of the old town vacation bustling with small yellow visor tourists were a lot of chattering tour guide with a crash it
2 expensive In these holidays, the fastest-rising to be counted in the old town inside the price of hotels and hostels, from dozens of dollars to more than one hundred yuan, the general words are up! About half of the potential price increases in the project and later introduced the day trip travel costs,
Subtracting these factors, I recommend the best time to travel to Phoenix is before and after the first of May, the end of August, the beginning of September and before and after the 11th, I arranged the travel time is in the week after the first of May
Well, to help you determine a good time, and now it is time to think about the ticket
The ticket: Wuhan to Huaihua You can choose k337 fare about 99 yuan, the cheapest and fastest train, the environment on board is very good, the crew service is also good....
Booked tickets, the following is the other preparations, you can learn from some forums or blogs to understand some of the local geography and customs, it is recommended that you can learn some of the local people's language, that is, the Phoenix native language, tourism and accommodation, the purchase of souvenirs of the kanji have to help, the following I quote from the novel I wrote at the time briefly introduced in Huaihua to Phoenix on the way to the learning of the dialect
Then is some of the Miao village in Phoenix taboos, can not casually touch the head of a child, can not casually and young girls or old people to speak, in the Miao village inside the can not whistle can not hit the umbrella into the house . A lot of many, here a little bit can not remember, I will say these more important it
Baggage must bring items: treatment of heatstroke, fever, diarrhea of the standing medicines, umbrellas, slippers, thicker clothes
prepared for the baggage, let's go
Tuojiang River Bridge
To the Huaihua out of the train station in the square after the bus station, 1 yuan (but actually the bus station is also close to the train station, the bus station). (But in fact, the bus station is also quite close to the train station, 5 minutes by car is not necessary to arrive, if you take a taxi about 7 yuan, walk 15 minutes on the line). In the bus station will generally have direct to the Phoenix bus, 31 yuan, the car playing the outdated Hong Kong film VCD. driving time seems to be not too guaranteed, tend to be full of people before driving. So to choose the car inside the more people to sit, the road is about 2.5 hours, the road scenery is very good, a piece of green orange groves in the mountains with the breeze undulation, if you have the opportunity to stop, then recommend that must be in the highway on the side of the fruit growers stalls to buy a few pounds of oranges, you will find that the oranges here is actually so delicious ... ...
Three hours after arriving at the Phoenix Tuojiang ancient town bus station, time is about 5:00 p.m., get off the bus, a very real woman took me to a Tuojiang River side of the inn, is the legend of the Miao people living in the foot of the bamboo building, went in to look at the room, very clean, TV, bathroom, air conditioning, the room is arranged very cozy, very price is also very reasonable, non-holiday standard rooms are
This is where I lived at the time, at the Bamboo House Inn by the Hongqiao Bridge, where the walls and floors of the rooms were made of bamboo, and the price was sixty dollars a day, and eighty for the holidays.
The following is a post on the Internet, said the Phoenix accommodation, to go to the students will be very useful, I use it
Going to Phoenix to play live in the Tuojiang River on the side of the inn is the most ideal, preferably on the river, so that you push open the window to see the quiet Tuojiang River, just to the Hongqiao, you will see the Tuojiang River side of the river is full of riverfront inns, the off-season you do not have to worry about the accommodation, went to choose the best, and the most important thing is that you have to choose the most suitable accommodation, so that you have to choose the most suitable inns. Worry about, go to the full selection of it, until satisfied (every Friday/Saturday/Sun people are relatively more), generally in the 30 - 60 yuan / person. Golden Week time is more expensive, about 150 to 200 yuan / person, and it is not easy to book a room, usually have to pay a deposit before the room will stay. There are many hostels in Phoenix, both private and public. Personally, I thought I should stay in the private inns in the old city especially by the river, so that I can y experience the local flavor. Phoenix's private inns: 1: Hui Bin Inn 13574386920 In the positive Tuojiang River side of the hammock, open the window can see the Tuojiang River water 2: riverside inn (0743-3222920, 13974306603), standard room 30 yuan / room, two people between 15 yuan / bed. 3: Fengjiang Inn 15974326997 4. Tujiang family inn, and Huang Yongyu studio a wall away, located in the Hongqiao downstream of the Cuicui building side, because the prominent piece of balcony is facing the Hongqiao, under the Huilongtan, is the perfect location to view the Hongqiao and Cuicui building, ￥ 20 / person (peak season rose to 50-100 yuan / person, independent bathroom 24 hours hot water (gas) Hot water is available 24 hours a day in the private bathroom (gas water heater).

If you are not tired, you can stroll in the evening riverside stalls, a lot of unknown snacks, fruits, and souvenirs, there will be more than enough to make you dizzy, tired, back to the hostel, a shower, you can sleep, the first day. The first day of the trip ended here....
The next day, get up early, you can embark on the search for the ancient town of the journey, the city is mainly some stores, hotels, restaurants, there is no destination, is to wander around, somehow, have been to a lot of ancient cities and towns, but there is no place like phoenix so interesting, you will be in the milli-consciously will be produced in the mood of fondness and laziness, and she was fond of, intoxicated and tightly feel afraid of losing. Walking on the wall, one side of the store, the other side is the Tuojiang River, up and down, the aisle is full of travelers of all colors, not a few small couples, they hold hands past me, as if it were a lifetime ago.
The path in the rain
If you can walk with your loved ones in the rain in the streets of the old town, the mood may be more feeling than I described at the time, Phoenix is indeed a small town full of inexplicable love and touching
I remember when I bought the most is the roadside granny with a bamboo basket to sell oranges, water and very sweet, and there is a special aroma, a special local varieties, really very tasty.

The main thing is to look at the brand and size. The brand determines the flavor. There are old ginger and new ginger, old ginger is spicy, new ginger is not stimulating. The old ginger is only made out of the time is very exciting, eat to the cool death. The other is 10 yuan 3 bags and 6 bags of flavor no difference, 6 bags of more affordable. Liu's ginger candy, Xiong's ginger candy, Zhang's ginger candy, these are more authentic. It is best to buy so fine packaging better, like so simple package is not so hygienic

These attractions, some of them are later constructed in the imitation of antique buildings, nothing interesting, it is recommended that you can choose to cancel the visit, if you want to go rafting in the Tuojiang River, and then go to see the tomb of Shen Congwen, the Tuojiang River, and then go to see the tomb of Shen Congwen. If you want to see Shen Congwen's tomb, you can rent a boat on the Hongqiao river, the price is usually around 20 yuan, remember not to be boatman very high price stunned, must be cut to twenty to stop...
We rafted together, and then crossed the fast-flowing shoals, in the shallows when the boatman will get off the boat to pull the fiber, you can try to help if you're interested in the boatman will also invite you and he sang songs, you just sing what good, don't look at the boatman is native, but the popular songs may be more than you will be remembered that I held back half a day to hold back the love of the slender man and the big sedan chair, sang! The thief is hard to hear, haha
Here is a small episode, walking in the ancient town at dusk, sunset, in the stone bridge, seven or eight students dressed in youth under the bridge sitting in a row, someone holding an acoustic guitar, someone holding a snare drum, someone holding a triangular fork, together with everyone familiar with the love song, in front of them put a plastic milky white box, tourists pass by, side-eye, put down a coin! I was thinking that if I played the guitar well and sang well, this little life would really be quite pleasant... Ha ha
Evening, Tuojiang River in the night and the afterglow reflected more charming and moving, this time to stroll through the town, there will be different feelings, the evening after a painful bath, I decided to enjoy the long-endowed reputation of the Phoenix night scene, Phoenix night scene is really good, is an ancient city shrouded in brilliant lights, the apparent gold and blue, like a bright pearl, this side of the river is the picking of the wind of the tourists, the other side of the river is the style of different The river is full of tourists, the other side of the river is a variety of styles of bars, unique, and the river is carrying the wishes of the river lanterns, which is a must-do activity for everyone who comes to Phoenix in the evening. If you are tired, you can sit on the jumping rock and put your feet into the cold water, enjoying the beauty of the two sides of the river and the bars and the sound of music.
The evening roadside aunts in the sale of paper boats for blessings, due to the size and price from five to dozens of dollars, you can bargain
The evening back to the hostel when the aunt enthusiastically came over to us to recommend one-day tour and two-day tour attractions, including many Miao villages tour, hook Liang Miao Village, Shanjiang Miao Village, Shenlong Valley Miao Village, Gudong Miao Village, De ram Miao Village, and the town next to a number of scenic spots, such as Huangshi, Huangshi, Huangshi, Huangshi, Huangshi and Huangshi. There are also some scenic spots next to the town, such as the Huangshiqiao Ancient Great Wall, the Southern Great Wall. There are also many waterfalls and the Great Wall. The most exciting when the Mangdong River rafting, Ximenxia rafting, it is said that this rafting is very dangerous, but also died
Huangshiqiao Ancient City (said to be general, the city is relatively small, don't go, it is very unclean), the Great Wall of the South (been to the Great Wall of Beijing do not have to go again, in the following glances on the good), the mountain river scenic area of the Qiliang hole and the ancient demon pool is very good, from the ancient city of the scenic area is also relatively close to the development of the town, there are Wugu (the main climbing what mountain ah). The main thing is to climb the mountain, what mountain ah! simply small hills) and incense burner mountain Miaozhai (inside the farmhouse meal taste good, but also in the Tuogang River upstream canoeing, see the upstream reservoir, the river water is very clear), but also in the Mangdong River or Ximen Gorge rafting.
The best we chose the Great Wall of the South, De Ram Miao Village, Qiliang Cave and Ancient Demon Pool one-day tour and Ximen Gorge rafting one-day tour of these two tours, then found that these two projects are very good, this is also I want to highly recommend
We went to half a day of bargaining after, with my this three-inch tongue, the original price of 300 / person of the two tours cut to 200!
The third day got up early in the morning, went to the barbecue that street next to the square by car, go to the Miao village on the road, our guide is a familiar Miao brother, wearing Miao clothes, a mouthful of southern accent of Mandarin, Miao family brother warm and generous, out of my expectation. Miao people love to sing, it's not false at all, not only in the public **** car for us to sing, but also teach us to sing, the atmosphere on the way is very active. On the way we saw the ancient Southern Great Wall... As we all know, the Miao people are good at singing songs and hospitable. Therefore, when you enter the Miao village, you have to sing with the elder sister of the Miao family before you can go in. Miao song, four lines to count song, less than four lines, can not be called a song, sing and then add "Yo-ho ~ ~ ~ ~" to show that I finished singing. On the way to the guide a sister has taught us songs, the lyrics are like this: sing a good and sing a good boy yo, sing the peach blossom blossom, peach blossom ten open nine yo, there is a wait for you to come, wait for you to come ~ ~ ~ ~ yo roar ~ ~ ~ ~ a very simple song
Singing mountain song, but also to drink a bowl of Miao glutinous rice wine in order to get into the cottage, I did not expect that this glutinous rice wine is sweet and fragrant, but also moist and cool, I do not know in this strange place! I don't know in this strange place what strange method they use to brew such a good tasting glutinous rice wine. After entering the Miao village, I watched a lot of Miao songs and dances, which were very interesting. Walled inside a lot of villagers are selling things, a Miao grandmother to sell their own woven grass sandals are very nice, but did not buy, lunch time six people a table, six dishes a soup, rice tube enough, dishes are put in pots, so many, we all like to eat spicy chicken dish, a moment to eat, I end pots volunteered to go to the kitchen to add dishes, did not expect the guide has not said a Miao family brother has been to the basin full of it, I feel, they are too simple, eat a meal after the Miao family, can be free to move, but pay attention to do not wander, so as not to get into unnecessary trouble, because many customs and habits you are not clear
After lunch, came to the strange beam hole and the ancient demon pool, the attraction is actually a very large canyon, it is very spectacular and very beautiful, to walk down! Still very time-consuming, and then it is in the deep pool to rent a lifeboat to play rafting, a person is 20, I rowed for a while to learn, it is very good to learn, it is very fun, huh
The most impressive is the waterfalls, look at the bottom, point of the water in the cliffs above the fall, there is a suspected Milky Way fall nine days of the spirit, the worst is the tourists walk on the stacks repaired in the waterfalls after the cliffs in the middle of the cliffs, so that you walk in the This journey, look at the feet is the abyss, the heart chills, look at the top of the head is the flow of waterfalls, refreshing, walk in the trestle, through the waterfalls, a little droplets of water falling on your head like rain, it is really a feeling
The fourth day of Ximen Gorge rafting Ximen Gorge is not far away from the Phoenix, as long as half an hour's drive to the. When we arrived at the rafting starting point, we received life jackets and helmets with our tickets, and saved all our belongings, and we definitely couldn't take our cameras with us, so unfortunately we didn't leave any photos of this day's rafting. There are raincoats available, and the boat here seats 8 people with a helmsman. We were attacked just as we got on the boat and were already splashed and soaked. Rush to acquire a weapon - 5 dollars for a water scoop. Seeing each other splashing water, I can be excited, take the water scoop and no matter what to splash. Every rapids, the coxswain will instruct everyone to pull the rope, in the river is relatively wide and flat place, the coxswain will stop, there is a river is very narrow, our boat also stuck to the rocks on both sides of the stranded, a few of us were transferred to another boat, after the *** with the efforts to the bow of the boat to turn around. After nearly 2 hours of rafting, we drifted to the lower reaches, where you can take a bus back to the starting point to change clothes. On the way there are people to take photos for everyone, you can choose to need to print out, but we did not see the right angle of the photo, we did not buy, did not leave the photo is really a pity. Only from the Internet to find pictures posted so that everyone can feel
night back, rest one night,

Different cities, different moods...
Sitting under the drizzle by the river, the dampness permeates around my body, my skin is taut, absorbing the loneliness that belongs to me for a moment, just because he's gone and left my life forever doesn't mean that moment of happiness has been lost...
A cup of tea, floating a few small leaves, sipping fragrant tea in the rain, bitter... Thoughts and flavors are silky...
That happiness, destined to be short-lived...
The mood after this precipitation may just be a white sky, reflecting the blue sorrow...
When a coin falls to the ground, who will penetrate its two sides?
Love, originally is love, a moment of joy, in exchange for a moment of tranquility is no longer...
The heart will drip blood when you think of him, sometimes like a worm, at the end of the night, slowly climbed up to the top of the leaf, just to lick that one teardrop ....
Painting a picture in the heart will always be intact, but in the end it is in pieces, unbearable hurt...
Love, this may be love, coincidental encounters, coincidental brushes, coincidentally disappeared
The world is bustling, time shuttle.
