High-speed rail direct! The thousand-year-old ancient town hanging on the waterfall made me cry!
I have been watching the waterfall in the mountains for a long time, always fantasizing about being able to live in a place surrounded by mountains and rivers, as if it is a real paradise ^_^
In front of us in China, there is indeed such a place that can realize this wish. This is an ancient and pleasant border town that has experienced a thousand years of history, surrounded by water and the waterfall runs through the entire town.
When night falls, the scattered lights are like a galaxy in the world, and the dreamy waterfall is even more colorful.
This land once became famous because of a movie by famous director Xie Jin, and was renamed for this reason. This place is Furong Town in Xiangxi, Hunan, a severely underestimated niche attraction.
Take advantage of the good season of autumn, why not pack up and set off!
If you choose high-speed rail , you can get off at the "Furong Town" high-speed rail station, and then take a taxi for a few minutes to arrive, or drive to the "Furong Town Tourist Service Center" or "Furong Town Scenic Area Tianze Parking Lot" (the latter requires a ticket purchase first).
The ticket price is 108 yuan/person, valid for 3 days, unlimited entry and exit. The recommended tour route is the entrance of the scenic spot ➡️ Baitang ➡️ Xizhou Copper Column ➡️ Tuwang Bridge ➡️ Tingtao Road Ancient Street ➡️ Guanpu Terrace Yinan Theater ➡️ Huashao Camping Base ➡️ Chushu Tongjin ➡️ Furong Town Big Waterfall ➡️ Viewing Gallery Bridge ➡️ City Gate Wharf ➡️ Wuli Stone Street ("Furong Town" movie location, Liu Xiaoqing's tofu shop)
The special performance time is 9:00-22:00, the scenic spot continuously performs "Flowers Bloom and Furong·Bisca's Carnival", allowing you to appreciate the charm of the Tujia culture. The viewing platform at night is a night view not to be missed. The lights start at 19:30, and you can check in with the same pose as Yang Mi.
In terms of accommodation, the price of homestays in the peak season is slightly expensive, and the price of waterfall-viewing rooms is above 350 yuan; accommodation outside the scenic area is more affordable, and parking is also more convenient.
In terms of food, there are all kinds of special Xiangxi pickles, Liu Xiaoqing's tofu, stir-fried bamboo shoots, hot and sour noodles, rice wine, osmanthus fish, bacon, etc.
In addition, the directly operated Tufeng Miaoyun Boutique Shop in the scenic area (opposite the Furong Grand View at the entrance of the scenic area) provides special products with Xiangxi style, such as secret T-shirts, sunny and rainy umbrellas, silverware, dolls, etc.
The biggest highlight of Furong Town is the waterfall tour at night. Eat the local special pork feet soup, drink a bowl of rice tofu in Liu Xiaoqing's movie, go to the waterfall night tour, the lights at night, several times better than the day, from the back of the waterfall, there is a water curtain hole in front of you, especially great!
The scenic spot is very beautiful, but the ticket service is very poor, the elderly and children on the Internet are free, and they are stopped at the door and ask for a ticket of 10 yuan! The elderly did not even give any receipts! In addition, I found that I can go to the scenic spot by walking the path! Many locals know!
Furong Town is extremely beautiful at night when the yellow lights are on and the town is very lively.I totally recommend having dinner with a view of the waterfall and the picture-perfect town in one of the restaurants in the scenic area.You can book a room in a hotel within the scenic area but you need to buy the entry tickets to the scenic area which cost about 108 per person and almost half the price for students in China.The ticket is valid for 3 days.Furong old town is affordable and worth visiting!
There are many ancient tourist towns now, but Furong Town is an ancient town supported by cultural heritage. Because of the 1987 power supply "Furong Town", the landscape is mainly a large waterfall, from up and down to view the scenery. During the Spring Festival holiday, you can cruise during the day, there is a Tujia hand dance performance, and you can watch the dance drama "Furong Flower Bloom" performance at 8:30 in the evening. It is divided into four acts and tells the love story of young men and women, and the Tujia marriage customs. Tickets are 100 yuan, including cruises and dance dramas. Xiangxi cuisine has a lot of curd, and Furong Town's family makes Liu Xiaoqing rice tofu.
Furong Town has not had a waterfall more than ten years ago. This time I entered the park at around 6 pm. I saw that the night view at night was very beautiful. The lights came out. The whole waterfall attractions were very beautiful. It was worth a visit. There were performances at night.
It is worth going, the night view is beautiful, the lights are turned off at 12 o'clock, you can live in the scenic area, or you can live outside. The scenic area is relatively large, three or four hours can be turned around, suitable for taking pictures at night, there are many snacks and restaurants, many homestays in the scenic area can compare prices
The night view is beautiful, and tickets can be entered and exited repeatedly with ID cards. The main check-in point is the waterfall, and all kinds of snacks and taverns are also quite distinctive. It is said that there are performances to see at the point, and the scenic spot is 1~ 2 hours to walk around.
