99% of people in Xiangxi don't know that I've clocked in for you

Xiangxi, an ancient and natural city in Hunan, China. The land of Xiangxi is a natural textbook. Here, the atmosphere is always filled with nature and classicism. People live off the mountains and the water, always having their own beautiful way of life and path to happiness. They believe in the laws of nature and are convinced that 'a life dominated by material things is pitiful.' We have always known Xiangxi through the writings of Shen Congwen, seeing the Xiangxi embellished by the writer's pen. ~ Vast golden orange groves, the little boat that Cui Cui and her grandfather take to cross the river, the bamboo baskets carried by people on the streets, the cloth dyers, and the colorful clothing and ingenious silver ornaments of the Miao people. Everything is lively and vibrant at the tip of the pen, making one long for and fantasize about Xiangxi ~ . 🚄Transportation Generally, you can first ✈️ or 🚄 to Changsha, then take the Changsha-Jishou 🚄, and arrive in 2.5 hours, then charter a car or rent a car to reach the scenic area. . 👉Itinerary Day1: Qianzhou Ancient City - Qianzhou Ancient City Streets—Sanmenkai City Tower—Wanrong River Pier—Take a cruise—Sleepless City Day2: Aizhai Cliff Walkway - Aizhai Bridge - Wentiantai - Dehang Canyon . ⚠️The ticketing is a bit complicated, pay attention Aizhai Wonder Tourism Scenic Area, divided into Dehang Canyon Scenic Area, Jidou Miao Village Scenic Area, Aizhai Bridge Scenic Area (including Cliff Walkway➕Aizhai Bridge Sightseeing)⚠️Paragliding at Aizhai Bridge 🪂 is charged separately 🎫Combo ticket 💰265 online purchase Aizhai Bridge joint ticket 180 (Aizhai Bridge, Jidou Miao Village, Wentiantai) Dehang Canyon 80 yuan . 👉What to play❓ ✅Qianzhou Ancient City 🎫Free On the first day of arrival in Jishou, you can stay in the city for one night, go to see the night view of Qianzhou Ancient City, then take a boat 🚢 to Xiangxi Sleepless City, the boat ticket is 39/person, while watching the night view light show you can also watch performances up close, the night view is gorgeous and spectacular, and when you arrive at Sleepless City there is also a street of gourmet food and performances, which is extraordinarily lively ✅Aizhai Bridge It boasts the world's four number one bridge wonders, along the cliff walkway all the way to the viewing platform, you can also walk under the bridge, overlooking the Dehang Canyon ✅Wentiantai The 'Asking Heaven' written by the poet Qu Yuan of the Chu state is about this place, with three sides open to the air, peaks arrayed, towering rock pillars, looking down you can see Yuquan Stream, very magnificent, on rainy days you can see clouds and fog, drone photography is very spectacular, this is also a place where the Miao people pray and offer sacrifices, and it is also a location for 'Wonder Woman' in China Wei one scene 👉Accommodation: This time we stayed at the Jishou Xiangxi Sunshine International Hotel in Jishou city area, the environment and catering are quite good . 👉Dining: In Jishou city area, Furong Li Changsha Restaurant (Shengshi Haoting Store) Aizhai Bridge Scenic Farmhouse Wood Fire Restaurant, I have to say that Hunan cuisine is really delicious, the taste is a bit strong, specialty dishes like farmhouse stir-fried meat, Xiangxi smoked meat, and rice flower fish 🐟 are all very tasty .
