　　Day 1 Changsha - Beijing - Nanluoguxiang

　　On the first day, I bought a special air ticket in advance and flew directly from Changsha to Beijing. The distance is 1450 kilometers, and the flight time is about 2 hours and 40 minutes. I landed safely in Beijing. I chose to stay at the well-reputed Beijing Fushan International Youth Hostel. The bed costs 70 yuan a night, and the six-person room has a separate bathroom. The location of the hostel is excellent, close to Nanluoguxiang, Houhai and Beihai Park, and the distance to the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square It is also less than 5 kilometers away, and you can walk about 800 meters to reach Andingmen subway station, so the transportation is very convenient. Remember one thing in Beijing, if you can take the subway, you must not take the bus. The bus is not only jammed, but also crowded. The key point is that it is very expensive without a bus card.

　　It was four o'clock in the afternoon when I landed in Beijing. After resting in the hostel for two hours, I went out to look for food. Due to the hard journey, I didn't arrange too many itineraries. I chose to have dinner at the nearby [Nanluoguxiang], there are many kinds All kinds of snacks can be purchased selectively according to personal taste, such as Beijing’s special snacks, Yaoji fried liver, stewed fire, bean juice, pea yellow, etc., it must depend on the mood, foreigners really I am not used to it, but since I am in Beijing, I have to try it.

　　Day 2 798 Art District - Sanlitun - CCTV underpants - Wangfujing - Oriental Plaza

　　The next day, I got up early and had breakfast around the hostel. I made an appointment with my classmates to go to the [798 Art District] on the fifth ring road. My caring friend prepared a bus card for me, so it was very convenient. The public transport in Beijing is different from other cities. You have to swipe your card before getting on the bus, and you have to swipe once when you get off. If you don’t have a card, you only need to insert coins.


　　After several turnarounds, it took about an hour's drive to arrive at the 798 Art Zone. It was originally just an idle factory building, but because the unique style of the factory building was favored by many artists, the area gradually formed a multicultural space. There are many kinds of The exhibition halls are free to visit, and some exhibitions are held in this area from time to time, and they are all free. Friends who like art can visit here more and see more.


　　Then my friends and I went to [Sanlitun], just to feel the momentum of the SOHO building, and did not wait until the evening to go to the bar to be happy. We ate something at the Starbucks in the SOHO building in Sanlitun, and then bought some snacks in the nearby supermarket. After lunch, we took a short break, it was already 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and then we took a car to look at CCTV's "big underpants" and took photos as a souvenir, then we went to "Wangfujing Pedestrian Street" and "Oriental Plaza", Friends who like shopping can go shopping more. There is a snack street in Wangfujing Pedestrian Street, which is filled with the smell of seafood. Personally, I don’t think there is anything delicious, and there are squids selling belly everywhere. We chose to have dinner at the food street in Wangfujing, where there are also snacks, and there are all kinds of snacks from all over the country. After walking for nearly 20 kilometers in such a day, I was really not in the mood to see the night view again, so I went back to the hostel early to rest.

　　On the third day, since we have arrived in Beijing, we must visit [Forbidden City] (20 yuan for student tickets), and we must go to [Tiananmen Tower] (5 yuan for student tickets), and go to Chairman Mao’s announcement of the founding of the People’s Republic of China. Get a feel for that position. Remember that the museum is closed on Monday afternoon during the off-season. You can enter the museum at 8:30 in the morning. If you don’t rush late, Tiananmen Square needs security checks. There are many people who go late, and remember that the Forbidden City has implemented a one-way tour route from south to north. All tourists are welcome. Enter from the Meridian Gate (South Gate), exit from the Shenwu Gate (North Gate), visit along the central axis, and pass [Treasure Hall] (10 yuan for student tickets) and [Watch Hall] (10 yuan for student tickets). If you are interested, you can go and have a look, and walk around for about three hours.

　　After coming out of the north gate of the Forbidden City, there are many snack bars around, such as the more famous Huguo Temple snacks in Beijing, Qingfeng Baozi Shop, etc. You can try it, and I don’t know which one is the most authentic; after lunch, you can go to【 Go to Beihai Park] (Student ticket 5 yuan) for a stroll, the park is very large and the environment is very good; then go to [Prince Gong’s Mansion] (Student ticket 20 yuan), He Shen’s mansion, you must remember to take a tour guide and listen to it The story of Heshen is very interesting and interesting; wandering slowly, wandering slowly, choose the Quanjude Roast Duck in [Houhai] for dinner, the meal starts at 5 o'clock, you can buy a group, half a roast duck is 99 yuan, enough for two people, Then go to the store to order some dim sum or something, and you will be full easily.

　　Day 4 Summer Palace - Old Summer Palace - Peking University - Tsinghua University

　　On the fourth day, [Summer Palace] (student ticket 15 yuan) is very big, and it will take half a day to go shopping. You can bring some dry food with you, because there are basically no places to eat in the park, and there are only some small shops, and only instant noodles. And sausages and snacks are provided, and they are much more expensive than outside; the scenery in the garden is also very good, after all, it is the back garden of Empress Dowager Cixi, you can take a tour guide to listen to the history of the Summer Palace; [Yuanmingyuan] (10 yuan for student package: Including tickets for the gate of Yuanmingyuan, tickets for the scenic spot of Xiyanglou ruins, and tickets for the panoramic model) is near the Summer Palace, and you can get there by bus in no time.

If you have time, you can also stroll around the campus of Peking University to feel the atmosphere of higher education. After visiting Peking University, the nearby [Tsinghua University] Of course, Tsinghua Garden of the University] must also be visited. Tsinghua University can only choose to enter on weekends, and it is not open to the public from Monday to Friday. We settled it at [Wudaokou Donglaishun] during dinner time. You can choose a group purchase, the price is affordable, the portion is sufficient, and the taste is not bad.



　　Day 5 Badaling Great Wall - Bird's Nest - Water Cube

　　On the fifth day, [Badaling Great Wall] (20 yuan for student tickets) will take a whole day to visit. I went to the remnant Great Wall in Badaling Natural Scenic Area. I signed up to charter a car with tourists from the hostel, 130 yuan per person, chartered car Round-trip transfers, including Great Wall tickets, take about two hours by car from the city. There are very few people on the remnant of the Great Wall. When we went there, the Great Wall was very windy, but the weather was relatively good. We could see the blue sky and white clouds, and it felt within reach; the higher we climbed, the more spectacular the sight was. I Basically, we climbed to the highest point and took a lot of beautiful scenery. We stopped and stopped on the Great Wall for about three hours, and then we were ready to start our return journey.


　　It was already 5:00 in the afternoon when I returned to Beijing. I went back to the hostel to rest for an hour and then went out for dinner. There are many restaurants around the hostel, where rice and pasta are available, and the price is not expensive. The hostel also provides dinner for guests to choose from; eat After dinner, I went to Beijing’s landmark buildings [Bird’s Nest] and [Water Cube] to see the night view, because the weather was very good at that time, with blue sky and white clouds, and the night view of the Bird’s Nest was also very beautiful. It is worth visiting, but the venues of the Bird’s Nest and Water Cube ( Both need to buy tickets, Bird's Nest student ticket is 25 yuan, Water Cube student ticket is 15 yuan) I didn't go in, I heard that there is nothing interesting, just looking outside is enough.

　　Day 6 Beijing - Changsha Changsha Good Morning Residence Hotel

　　On the sixth day, the trip is coming to an end, ready to return to Changsha. I happened to have lunch with my friends near Zhongguancun, and attended a party in the [Magazine Living Room] in the afternoon. I took some pictures of the wonderful scenes of the event, and the event lasted until 5 pm. Then I took the subway to Terminal 3 of the Capital Airport. Beijing flew directly to Changsha. The plane was at 19:25 in the evening, but due to the weather, it didn’t take off until after 8:40. It was already eleven in the evening when I arrived safely in Changsha. At half past one, take the airport bus to [Civil Aviation Hotel] (ticket 15,5 yuan), and then take a taxi for 20 yuan to [Changsha Morning Hotel], it is a very themed art hotel, when I take When the car arrives near the hotel, you can see the hotel's very distinctive signboard not far away - [Good Morning Sojourn, Live Elsewhere]; I personally like it very much, it is very distinctive. I stayed in a deluxe couple room, 278 yuan per night. Personally, I feel that the price/performance ratio is quite high. After washing up in the hotel, I slept well and ended my trip in my sleep.

　　Travel Tips:

　　1. If conditions permit, you can buy air tickets in advance. The total cost of my air ticket from Changsha to Beijing is about 1,200 yuan, which is not expensive but not cheap. After all, there are 1,450 kilometers and a flight time of 2 hours and 40 minutes;

　　2. Regarding transportation, if you can take the subway, don’t take the bus. If you have a classmate or friend in Beijing, I suggest asking him to get a transportation card for you, which is convenient and cheap. I stayed for nearly a week, and the subway and bus fare was about 70 yuan;

　　3. Regarding the hotel, you must choose a suitable location. It is best to be close to the subway, or live near Nanluoguxiang. It is very close to various scenic spots in Beijing, and it is convenient to travel, because basically all scenic spots in Beijing have subway stations, which can be saved A lot of unnecessary time wasted;

　　4. Regarding food, Beijing snacks depend on your mood, try selectively, and then like Beijing roast duck and Donglaishun hot pot, you can go to a store that has a group buying partner, and it will be much cheaper;

　　5. Try not to rush the route planning. There are many scenic spots in Beijing, and the tickets are very cheap. Don’t rush to see the flowers, don’t run around for the scenic spots, you have to make a choice, and it’s best to walk slowly according to your own preferences;

　　6. If you have extra time, you can go to the hutongs in Beijing. After all, this is the real old Beijing culture, and you can experience the leisurely life of Beijingers.
