Travel Guide|I declare that autumn in Xiangxi is truly a human ideal.

Bluestone slabs, stilted buildings, Tuojiang River, and a leaf boat. Many people's impression of Xiangxi is still limited to Fenghuang Ancient Town. Until this time, I really traveled around Xiangxi and saw another side of it under the bright lights. Its true beauty is understated yet resounding. Xiangxi is no longer mysterious, just waiting for you to come. - ⛰️4-day itinerary in Xiangxi Day 1: Fenghuang Ancient Town Day 2: Dehang Miao Village➜ Aizhai Bridge➜ Tianwen Observatory➜ Biancheng Chadong Day 3: Wulongshan Grand Canyon (Ruo Mi Cave)➜ Liye Ancient Town➜ Liye Qin Jian Museum➜ Bamianshan Day 4: Ruoba La➜ Furong Town • 🚉How to get there 🚄High-speed rail: Fenghuang Ancient Town Station ✈️Airplane: Arrive in Changsha➠ Take the maglev train/airport bus to Changsha South and transfer to the high-speed rail🚅 ⚠️You can choose to take a taxi🚗, bus🚌, or maglev🚊 from Fenghuang Ancient Town High-speed Rail Station to the ancient town scenic area. The bus and maglev have fixed stops and require more walking. Taxis have more freedom in where you can get off. • 🗺️Travel Guide ▪️Fenghuang Ancient Town The Tuojiang River reflects the brilliance of the three thousand lights of Fenghuang City. However, I prefer the way it looks when it just wakes up, with fog covering the river and birds chirping. ▫️Dehang Miao Village The original Miao village style, surrounded by mountains, so quiet that it doesn't feel like it's on earth. The ticket includes a visit to the Miao Village, Liusha Waterfall, and Astronomical Observatory. ▪️Aizhai Bridge A rainbow bridge spanning two sides surrounded by mountains. It's hard to imagine the magnificence before you see it in person. ▫️Astronomical Observatory A naturally formed stone platform with a bottomless canyon below and cliffs above. It has a strong immortal-xia style, and you can take great photos📷 without aerial photography. ▪️Biancheng Chadong The prototype of "Biancheng" is not Fenghuang, but Chadong. Located at the junction of Hunan, Chongqing, and Guizhou provinces, the Huayuan River flows through it. You can take the "Lala Ferry" mentioned in the car to Cuicui Island. In the evening, it's so beautiful to eat by the river with the wind of Xiangxi. ▫️Wulongshan Grand Canyon The Ruo Mi Cave is amazing. It's so cold in the summer that it smokes. None of the caves I've been to before are as large and open as this one. The "Nine Dragon Divine Pillars" and "Sharingan" formed by hundreds of millions of years of waiting are worth seeing. ▪️Liye An ancient town surrounded by the You River. The Liye Qin Jian Museum houses three national treasure-level bamboo slips, not to be missed. ▫️Bamianshan See the cliffs and sea of clouds❗️At an altitude of over 1,000 meters, there are homestays on the mountain and you can also set up your own tent🏕️. ▪️Ruoba La The "beautiful and beautiful place" in Tujia language. The palace built for the TV series is very photogenic📷. ▫️Furong Town An ancient town on a waterfall. It's not comparable to Fenghuang, each has its own characteristics, and both are worth checking in. • 💡Tips: A taxi from Fenghuang High-speed Rail Station to the ancient town costs💰24, starting with three people. Fenghuang Ancient Town lights up at 7:30 pm. Liusha Waterfall in Dehang requires a high water period. The "Snack Bar Parking Lot" on Aizhai Bridge is a great angle to take photos of the bridge. The "One Fish, Three Provinces" fish pot in Chadong is delicious❗️ You can navigate🧭 to the Sun-dried Clothes Rock for the sea of clouds on Bamianshan. The black building in Ruoba La is at the end of the road. Furong Town lights up at 7 pm.
