During the whole trip to Guizhou, I trusted Ctrip. I also found that Ctrip has great functions and provides more and more services. The travel time is from July 20th to July 27th. The climate in Guizhou is very comfortable, it looks like 25-30 degrees, short sleeves are fine, and you don’t need to turn on the air conditioner when you sleep at night. There is no mountain climbing in this itinerary. Girls can wear skirts, bring rain gear and sun protection. The ultraviolet rays are still very powerful. Although I can't feel the sun, it is still a lot darker after a few days. Zhejiang ID card tickets are half price, so there is no need to book online in advance. Tickets for scenic spots are not very crowded, within the tolerance of patience. Guizhou's special food is sour soup (with fish or beef, etc.), spicy chicken, silk baby (didn't eat it), and rice wine is very good.
D1: The plane arrives at Guiyang Airport at 22:40 at 20:15. The air ticket price totaled more than 700. At that time, considering that the air ticket on Saturday morning was more than 900, it was better to go one day in advance to have more time. Ctrip booked a pick-up. Staying at Atour Hotel Guiyang North Railway Station, the room is ok, relatively small, relatively price, the price is not high.
Pick-up and drop-off can be reserved for rides. However, considering that it would be troublesome to communicate with the driver if the plane arrives late, Ctrip does not need to have these concerns in terms of pick-up time, so I chose Ctrip's special car. Later, when sending off the plane, I made an appointment for a ride, and the price was half of the difference.
D2-D3: Guiyang North Train departs at 9:25 and arrives at Kaili at 10:03. Chartered car to Xijiang Miao Village, about 1.5 hours, 120 yuan. The car outside can only be delivered to the gate of the Miao Village. The gate of the Miao Village is quite far from the places to play and stay inside. We contacted the private shuttle bus inside through the inn proprietress and sent it to the gate of the inn. 10 yuan per person. When checking out, the inn will contact the car to send us to the gate of Miao Village, the price is the same. The Miao Village is like a big park, surrounded by a river, and tourists are on both sides of the river. The two sides are built against the mountains, and there are layers of inns, which are purely a collection of commercial tourism.
You can also choose to take a scenic sightseeing car to go in. Miao Village sightseeing shuttle bus, the price is about 20 yuan for a round trip, and you can pick up and drop off 4 times, because we took another car to go in, so we didn't buy a sightseeing bus for the scenic spot, and I don't know the specific situation.
Miao Village mainly visits the commercial street and viewing platform. We live in Flying Time Yashe Inn. The location is good, it is very convenient to travel, it is very close to the viewing platform, you can watch the night view directly in the room at night. We booked a family room, which is in the attic type. The interior decoration is relatively simple. The advantage is that there are two 1.5-meter-large beds, which are more than enough for four adults. Good value for money. I ordered fish in sour soup recommended by netizens at the inn. After eating at another place, I found that his place was expensive and not delicious.
The Heji Beef Restaurant in Miao Village and the online celebrity shop Houjiazhuang have good food. There are several fat mothers in the chain, and the taste is not bad.
The breakfast in the inn is not very good, not recommended. Later, I found out that there are quite a lot of breakfast spots in Miao Village. You can eat our southerners’ breakfast, fried dough sticks, buns, solid buns, porridge, etc. You can find them when you go out and walk around.
D4: Through the ride, I contacted a driver and took a half-chartered car to Zhenyuan Ancient Town. The journey took about 2.5 hours. The ancient town has green mountains and green waters, and the scenery is not bad. We lived by the Zhusheng Bridge and visited Qinglong Cave. The locals told us that Banping Mountain will be developed for free after 6 o'clock, but we felt so tired after taking a little bit of shooting, so we gave up. When I went shopping at night, I found that Sifangjing Lane is quite interesting and worth a visit. The Water View Hotel we stayed in is not recommended, it was the failure of this trip, it was a family house in the 1980s, so I won’t say much here.
D5: In the morning, take bus No. 1 at the entrance of the inn to the train station, and the green leather train departs at 10:09 and arrives in Kaili at 11:21. I rented a car through Ctrip and drove by myself. There is no car rental point in Zhenyuan. We made an appointment to pick up the car at Kaili Railway Station. After lunch, we set off for Libo to visit Xiaoqikong. Ctrip renting a car is very convenient and the price is reasonable. We rented a 1.5-displacement automatic transmission small off-road vehicle with unlimited mileage. The price for two days is 411 yuan. The traffic management in Guiyang is relatively strict, and there are a lot of illegal parking and courteous pedestrians being snapped. It is a pity that we received a high-speed ticket. Be careful when choosing self-driving.
Arrive in Libo after 3.5 hours, and stay at the Select House Inn in Libo Town, decorated in Chinese style, the price/performance ratio is not bad, but it is a bit small.
D6: After checking out in the morning, take the expressway again and head for Libo Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. After about 30 minutes, you will arrive at the scenic spot, which is divided into Wolongtan, Yuanyang Lake, Water Forest, Qikong Bridge and other scenic spots, which are picked up by the scenic spot sightseeing car, so sightseeing tickets must be bought. It is recommended to bring waterproof sandals, which are used for boating in the water forest and Yuanyang Lake. Don't go to Tianzhong Cave, it is a very ordinary underground cave, and it is still a self-funded project. Due to time issues, we also gave up on the water forest, but we don't know exactly how. The Yuanyang Lake cruise is very interesting. If you have enough time, it is recommended to try it. There is no special restaurant in Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. There are some roadside vendors on the edge of Yuanyang Lake, who eat fried rice and boiled noodles. The fried rice is 15 yuan, a large portion, and one person can't finish it.
Return to Kaili Railway Station at around 17:00, return the train at 21:00, and return to Guiyang at 22:07. Stay at Xi'an Qingya Hotel.
D7: Book a round-trip tourist bus ticket from Guiyang to Huangguoshu Scenic Area in advance on Ctrip, depart at 7:00, and return to the city at 16:30. It takes about 1.5 hours to drive to Huangguoshu, and it takes 3 hours to arrive by bus, because it has another pick-up point, and it takes a detour. There are many people in Huangguoshu. Waiting for the sightseeing bus will test the patience of tourists, so the time for visiting is relatively short. The scenic spots are mainly divided into Tianxing Bridge, Great Waterfall and Doupotang Waterfall. Because we finally had to take a car at the Doupotang Service Center, we gave up the Tianxing Bridge and went directly to the Great Falls. The Huangguoshu Waterfall is very spectacular, and the harvest screams. Remember to buy disposable raincoats in advance, you can use them in Shuiliandong, the price is very reasonable, 2 yuan a piece. There are also fruit, sweet potato, and corn sellers at the door. You can buy some to satisfy your hunger when you play, and the price is very cheap. There is a restaurant at the entrance of the Great Falls, where you can cook and eat. The average price is 50 yuan for a meat dish.
D8: On the return flight at 5:00 p.m., I originally planned to go to Qianlingshan Park to see the monkeys, but I felt quite tired, so I strolled around the hotel and then went back to the hotel for 80 minutes. If you have the energy, you can go to Qianlingshan Park or Jiaxiu Tower, I heard it is not bad.
Travel Tips:
1. If you live in Guiyang, I strongly recommend Xi'an Qingya Hotel in Huaguoyuan District. The room is large, newly renovated, and the decoration style is also very comfortable. It is positioned as a hotel specially designed for women, and the price is affordable. It is convenient to the airport and train station , in fact, Guiyang city as a whole is not big.
3. You can consider renting a car and driving yourself in Kaili. Because Zhenyuan Ancient Town, Libo Xiaoqikong and other scenic spots are all around Kaili. To go to Huangguoshu Scenic Area, you can rent a car after returning to Guiyang, and the time is relatively free. It is recommended to rent a car locally and return it locally, the price is more affordable.
4. Because the time is tight, it is a pity that Zhenyuan Ancient Town has not been visited in detail, so it is better not to be too greedy when you come out to play, always thinking about playing one more place, which is actually counterproductive.
5. The management of all tourist spots in Guizhou is relatively standardized, there is no case of slaughtering customers, and various charges are relatively reasonable.
6. Xijiang Miao Village has a strong commercial flavor, mainly for taking pictures and wandering. If you are not very interested in these, you don't need to stay for two nights.
