Fenghuang guide

For all of my friends,especially for jeremy!.Hi,jeremy!,there is a guide for you.Thanks for the Flickr mail.

Enjoy!Welcome to China!

 

Beautiful Ancient Town--Fenghuang

Besides the Fenghuang Ancient Town, Fenghuang County is also famous for its Huangsiqiao Ancient Town, its Ancient Great Wall in the South, and its Qiliang Cave. Tourists can take a bus from the County Long-Distance Bus Station to all these scenic spots. The bus ticket is priced at three yuan.

Fenghuang County is a place inhabited by national minorities such as the Miao and Tujian, so it features strong ethnic charm. Tourists can enjoy the Miao customs by visiting the Shanjiang Miao Village. If you are lucky, you may have a chance to experience the Miao's local fair in Alaying.

 

How to get there

(1) Travelers arrive first in Jishou, Hunan, by train, and then go to Fenghuang by bus.

(2) Travelers can also travel by air to the Daxing Airport in Tongren, Guizhou, and then go to Fenghuang by bus.

 

Stay in Fenghuang

Tourists are recommended to stay in the houses on stilts along the riverside. A night stay costs 20 to 30 yuan per person. The hotel Home on the Tuojiang River is the best choice. If you mention China Pictorial, maybe the hotelkeeper will take you on a boat ride to appreciate the moon. Bao can entertain you by singing folk songs.

 

Fenghuang local snacks

Fenghuang has many local snacks, of which the sugarcoated ginger is a must for tourists. There is a snack store beside Shen Congwen's former residence. The sugarcoated ginger this store offers is the best of its kind, so it is sold at a higher price. Another local delicacy is meat fried with mushrooms.
