A 3-Day Yichang Food Itinerary for National Day (Including Peak Avoidance Tips) Based on the "core business district + time-honored brand cluster," we'll visit 3-4 must-try restaurants each day, balancing taste and efficiency to avoid peak tourist traffic. Day 1: Old Town Fireworks Route (Zhixiang Road/Fusui Road, Xiling District) Highlights This itinerary features a collection of Yichang's most time-honored snacks, all within easy walking distance. Perfect for newcomers looking to quickly experience the local flavors. 1. Breakfast (7:30-8:30): Fang Ma Noodle House Avoid the rush hour and order a bowl of red oil beef noodles (add sour beans for a more authentic experience). The chili oil is fragrant but not overpowering. Afterward, walk 5 minutes to the nearby market to experience the vibrant atmosphere of Yichang's morning life. 2. Mid-morning Snack (10:00-10:30): Zheng Xin Ji Cold Shrimp A classic for Yichang residents, this rice wine cold shrimp dish is a must-try for those who enjoy the summer heat. The combination of sweet rice wine and cold shrimp is incredibly refreshing, and there's virtually no wait time. 3. Lunch (before 12:00 PM): Ci Ma Food Stall Arrive 10 minutes early (around 11:50 AM) to avoid the lunch rush. Must-order the Weird Pork Ribs (crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and sweet and spicy) and the Stir-fried Lotus Root Strips. 4. Afternoon Snack (3:30 PM-4:00 PM): Yuan Jie Radish Dumplings The lines are shorter in the afternoon. Recommend the beef and radish dumplings, freshly fried and eaten, with a crispy outer skin and a savory, savory filling. Day 2: Business District Dinner Route (CBD/Jiefang Road) Highlights: This route combines shopping and dining, perfect for those who enjoy a meal while strolling. For dinner, choose a popular restaurant and make reservations in advance for added convenience. 1. Breakfast (8:00 AM-8:30 AM): Hu Ji Baozi Arrive early and order the red oil beef buns. The buns have a soft, fluffy wrapper and the filling is rich in spicy oil. They go perfectly with a cup of soy milk. 2. Lunch (before 11:30 AM): Juweng (Yiling Yangtze River Bridge Branch) Call one day in advance to reserve a window table (with river views). Order the intangible cultural heritage original-flavor fatty fish (delicious, boneless broth) paired with the Sanyou Fairy Chicken. Approximately 110 RMB per person. 3. Afternoon Snack (3:00 PM-3:30 PM): Wang's Cold Shrimp Located on Jiefang Road Pedestrian Street, enjoy a refreshing bowl of osmanthus cold shrimp after a stroll. Afterward, enjoy a stroll through the pedestrian street shops. 4. Dinner (before 6:00 PM): Han Ge Fish Restaurant Arrive one hour early. Recommended: the yellow croaker hotpot (optional tofu and potato sides), and a side of fried rice. Approximately 60 RMB per person, a great value. Day 3: Specialty Flavor Route (Yucai Road/Erma Road) Highlights: Explore niche specialty restaurants featuring clay pots and home-style dishes. Perfect for travelers seeking novelty without the crowds. 1. Breakfast (7:40-8:10): Fang Ma Noodle House (Ermalu Branch) If you didn't eat enough on the first day, try another branch and try the pig intestine noodles. The pig intestines are cleanly prepared and have a chewy texture. 2. Lunch (before 12:00 PM): Sanqi Clay Pot The clay pots are cooked to order. We recommend the pig intestines hot pot (serve with instant noodles). It has a strong spicy flavor and costs about 45 yuan per person. The restaurant is small and has few tables, so we recommend arriving before 11:30 AM. 3. Afternoon Snack (2:30-3:00 PM): Zheng Xinji Cold Shrimp (Ermalu Branch) This branch is even less crowded. You can choose the brown sugar cold shrimp, which has a moderate sweetness and is perfect for travelers who don't like alcohol. 4. Dinner (before 6:30 PM): Guan Ma This is a top choice for local home-style dishes. The Cross-Bridge Spare Ribs (fragrant ribs with bones, flavored by the side dishes) and the Boiled Pork (tender and flavorful) are must-try. They cost about 70 yuan per person. Arrive half an hour early. General Peak Avoidance Tips 1. Snack shops (cold shrimp, radish dumplings, and steamed buns) should avoid the peak hours of 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM and 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM, avoiding these hours by 1-2 hours. This will minimize queues. 2. For formal dining (Ju Weng and Han Ge Fish Restaurant), please call and make reservations one day in advance, notifying them of your National Day arrival. Some restaurants may reserve dishes (such as fat fish). 3. Transportation Tips: The roads in the old city (Zhixiang Road and Fusui Road) are narrow and prone to traffic jams during the National Day holiday. Bike-sharing or walking are preferred. In the commercial district (CBD and Jiefang Road), parking is available in nearby shopping mall parking lots. 4. Recommended accommodation: Licheng Hotel Pedestrian Street Branch, located on Jiefang Road in the heart of Yichang City, is surrounded by delicious food and tourist attractions, all within about an hour's drive.
