I also went to Fenghuang Ancient City this year, let me talk about my feelings.
Fenghuang Ancient City is praised by many people as the most beautiful small town in China. Nowadays, the commercialization of the ancient city is inevitable. A large number of tourists are pouring into the ancient city to maintain the balance between supply and demand and increase the income of residents. Shops will be all over the streets, but this will not affect your mood of visiting the ancient city. The stilted buildings, Tuojiang River, etc. in Fenghuang Ancient City Rock jumping is a beautiful scenery.
Phoenix in the early morning: It’s just dawn and the ancient city of Fenghuang is quiet. Walking by the Tuojiang River and on Tiaoyan Rock is quiet and beautiful!
Phoenix in the evening: As the sun sets, the entire ancient city of Phoenix is enveloped in the sun’s afterglow, which is extremely beautiful!
Phoenix at night: bustling as a dream, neon lights decorate both sides of the Tuojiang River.
- Saving money strategy:
- Tickets. Fenghuang Ancient City will no longer require tickets from April 10, 2016. The nine-view joint ticket is not interesting, and only Tuojiang River Rafting is acceptable. There is no charge for wandering around the ancient city.
- Prevention of pits and precautions:
- There are a lot of silver jewelry in Fenghuang Ancient City, so don’t buy them on the roadside for cheap.
- There are not many public restrooms in Fenghuang Ancient City. Most of them are in residents’ homes, so there is a fee to use the restroom.
- Pay attention to theft prevention. Whether it is Phoenix or other attractions, you must protect your personal belongings.
- Buy the trinkets sold in Fenghuang Ancient City if you like them. If you look at them and play with them, they may break when you get home. If you can control yourself, it is best not to buy them. If you don’t buy them, you won’t be cheated. Another thing is that you can ask for the price. If you negotiate the price with others, you should buy it.
- When it comes to eating, just look at the menu and clearly mark the prices.
- Before I went there, I was worried about how I would be able to communicate with people because I didn’t speak Miao. But my worries were unnecessary. All the merchants I met spoke Mandarin.
Taboos in Fenghuang Ancient City:
- You cannot enter the house with an umbrella. Put your umbrella away before entering the house. It is said that closing the umbrella after entering the house has the meaning of collecting wealth.
- Don’t touch the child’s head.
- Don’t step on the threshold. The threshold represents the shoulders of the owner of the house.
Haha, it happened to be raining lightly when I went there, so I was wearing a raincoat. Anyway, just pay attention to these things out of politeness.
To sum up, apart from meals and accommodation, you can enjoy the ancient city without spending a penny. Is there anything more economical than Fenghuang Ancient City?
So go to Fenghuang Ancient City with confidence and boldness!
