Generally speaking,
Zhenyuan
A regular tour takes one day, but half a day is enough in Xijiang. Including the travel time between the two places, two days is enough. But there is a problem here. It is best to stay one night in both places. Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village in the evening The bright lights of thousands of houses, the morning mist and the curling smoke from cooking stoves are still worth seeing, and
Zhenyuan
It is a relatively leisurely ancient city, and the night views on both sides of the Wuyang River are also quite charming. The key is to enjoy the evening breeze by the Wuyang River and eat Miaojia fish in sour soup. It is quite pleasant!
Therefore, we usually spend two days visiting Xijiang
Zhenyuan
It’s no problem, but it’s best to have two days and two nights. For example, arrive in Xijiang the night before, so that the itinerary can be arranged easily. I’ll give you a itinerary for your reference.
D0, starting point ~ Xijiang, staying at Qianhu Miao Village in Xijiang
I went to Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village the night before. Ticket sales and environmentally friendly vehicles in the scenic area were operating normally in the first half of the night. If you want to see the night view, it’s better to come a little earlier
D1, Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village ~ Kaili ~ Zhenyuan, Su Zhenyuan
Get up to the observation deck early to watch the morning mist on the Xijiang River, and visit the Miao village in the morning. There are not many places to visit. It is recommended to visit the Miao Museum to learn about the various living habits and customs of the Miao people, as well as the Miao people, witchcraft, etc. It is quite interesting. At around 11 o’clock, queue up at the square to watch the singing and dancing Lusheng performance. After a simple meal, you can go to the Miao Village.

Zhenyuan
At the commanding heights of the ancient city, there is the Miaojiang Great Wall on the mountain. It is suitable for climbing and visiting in the morning and evening. You can watch the morning fog and sunrise in the morning, and watch the sunset and night view in the evening. There is no charge for the morning and evening time. Most of the above places take about half a day. If you have extra time, you can choose scenic spots outside the city, such as hiking on Tiexi River or boat tour on Wuyang River, which each takes half a day. Choose a time in the afternoon or evening to return or move on to the next itinerary.
The above itinerary can be reversed, but

The tour time will be slightly less, while Xijiang will be slightly more.
About accommodation and food

  1. Accommodation.
    Zhenyuan
    It is recommended to stay on the north bank of Wuyang River, which is quieter and has better scenery. Accommodation is generally not too tight, but the inns along the river are more crowded and more expensive, while those on the east or mountain side are cheaper. There are many accommodations in Xijiang, with prices ranging from tens to hundreds of yuan. It depends on the location and facilities of the inn. The scenery near the observation deck is good and the price is high. Generally, you can stay halfway up the mountain. The foot of the mountain is not too far from the observation deck. . If traveling during the holidays, consider booking a room in advance.
  2. Food. The food range in Xijiang is not extensive, just snacks on the roadside are enough.
    Zhenyuan
    It is recommended to try the fish in sour soup. It tastes very good. There is also a tofu curd noodle shop at the foot of Shiping Mountain. The tofu curd and bean curd noodles are very good. It is recommended to try it.
