Wanfo Mountain

caoyangmu
Overall, the scenery is pleasant and the service is good. The scenic spot is mainly built around a mountainside and the glass plank road. It takes about 2 hours to complete the trip. The scenery has the potential of 5A, which feels like Xiaolu Mountain. The visitor center is too far from the scenic spot, and there are about 8 kilometers away from the scenic spot after arriving at the visitor center. You can't make a mistake in navigation.

There are local characteristics. There are a total of eight villages in the scenic spot, which is suitable for slow down and slow to visit. There are also special snacks and catering services in the scenic spot. It is worth mentioning that the public toilets are particularly clean and satisfying.

The water quality is super good and the scenery along the coast is charming. Unfortunately, rafting is not very exciting. There are more calm lakes. You have to paddle yourself. It is still worth playing

Huangdu Dongzhai is located in Huaihua Tongdao County, Hunan, a national AAAA-level scenic spot, with a unique architectural style and charm. It is very good to feel the characteristics of the Yi nationality, customs, folk customs, and eat Yi cuisine.

Tickets 80, you can enter and exit the scenic spot freely within 3 days, in fact, it is to seal the entrance and exit, circle the three terraced villages, if you only go to one village like us, you feel that the tickets are a bit expensive. The scenery is still good, but because we took the children, the temperature in March was still a bit low, it felt a bit cold, and we couldn't experience the project of catching rice field fish in the field, and the regular sunrise watching, etc., just stayed for one night.
