It was afternoon when we went there. The weather was too hot. There was no air conditioning outside, so we went inside the pavilion to enjoy the air conditioning. We saw three little pandas sleeping and five big ones waking up to eat. That was all.
We had to gather at 7:30 in the morning in order to get there early. We went through a special channel throughout the whole journey and saw the giant pandas in the opposite direction along the way. It was very suitable. The teacher in the group explained the content very vividly and interestingly. We learned a lot of interesting things and it is recommended to participate.

Sanxingdui tickets were sold out in seconds during the summer vacation. By chance, I saw a comment from a celebrity and booked it, and it worked out perfectly! The team's overall service was simple and clear. The instructor explained while arranging where to stand, which was a very reasonable arrangement. The tour lasted 3 hours, with a 15-minute break in between. I listened carefully throughout the entire process and was able to take all the necessary photos. Great!
It is really necessary to visit a museum and have a reliable guide. I took my son to a VIP private guide for two people. Although there was no microphone and there were quite a lot of people, it did not affect the experience at all. The lady was very attentive and prepared a lot of materials on her phone to accompany the explanation. It was very vivid.

The scenery is pretty good. There weren't many people when we went, and there was almost no queue for the elevator. I feel that when it's crowded, the queue would be very long. In general, the scenery of the Ground Crack is better than that of the Three Natural Bridges. It's just that we went to the Ground Crack later and were quite tired at the time, so we didn't have time to appreciate it carefully.
The place is worth visiting if you have more than 4 days in chongqing. It's beautiful hike and scenery. I just have comment about the company that handled the ticket. There was a misunderstanding with them since not all passengers with me on the trip had the same ticket and driver told us all we have to meet at a certain exit that i didn't have access to with my ticket. But it was resolved. I hope they communicate better with their drivers in terms of what each person's ticket info also a little consideration to non Chinese tourists would be great.

The hotel is located on Bayi Food Street. Just downstairs, turn right and you'll find Jiefangbei. It's a short walk to all the surrounding attractions. The room was clean and comfortable, and the service was excellent. I was very satisfied with my stay.
I went there at noon, and there were not many people. I queued for less than ten minutes before I got on the other side. It was worth the experience. The scenery on both sides was pleasant. There was also an observation deck on the south bank for taking photos, which was very nice. Xiahaoli is not far away, so you can visit it together.

The zoo opens before 8 o'clock. You must go early to see the giant pandas. They are quite lively and the red pandas are also very cute. The tree climbing is 666. The ticket price is 24. Children's tickets are half price. It is very cost-effective and worth spending 2-3 hours to play.

It is the most scenic spot in Enshi. There are many transportation options, which are deliberately designed to charge a lot. The food around is also average. The road leading in is not wide and there is a lot of traffic at night.
The scenery is stunning. While visiting Qixingzhai, the mountains are all around, creating a changing scene with each step. A light drizzle fell, and the white clouds shrouding the mountains were stunning. Yunlong Ground Crack features four large waterfalls. Both Qixingzhai and Yunlong Ground Crack are refreshingly cool, making the visit very comfortable. Qixingzhai isn't actually very large, and each attraction can be reached in a leisurely 30-minute walk—not as strenuous as rumored. Yunlong Ground Crack is relatively flat, so a full day of exploring is not exhausting.

This area is also a treasure trove of folk culture. Stepping into the folk customs area, the bluestone pavements and traditional Bayu architecture exude a sense of historical charm.

After nightfall, the buildings along the river light up one after another, and the scenery is very beautiful. The cruise ship passes Hongyadong, Qiansimen Bridge, and Chaotianmen Square. If you want to see the architectural light show, you can take a boat to see it all. This is a ferry.
We recommend purchasing an upgrade, which gives you a seat on the second floor, with indoor or outdoor seating options. There's also a self-service buffet of fruit, snacks, and drinks. The photo-taking angles and locations are fantastic. Starting from Hongyadong Pier on the Jialing River, we pass Chaotianmen Raffles, where the two rivers meet, and then return to Hongyadong Pier under the Yangtze River Cableway. The entire trip takes nearly an hour.

Baidi City, that famous spot where you can check in to "leave Baidi in the morning amidst the colorful clouds"! Even Li Bai couldn't resist praising it in a poem. Let's just say—the scenery is so stunning that even a passing immortal would stop and post a message! While climbing the stairs, I recommend silently chanting "The light boat has passed through ten thousand mountains" to cheer yourself up. After all, when your legs are shaking, you'll realize how much the poet's romance hurts your knees. 😂 (Friendly reminder: wear sneakers, bring a power bank, and remember to check the filter after taking photos to see if it's ethereal enough.)
I left Baidi in the morning amidst the colorful clouds, and returned to Jiangling a thousand miles away in one day. Finally, I checked in at Baidi City. The sky was blue and the clouds were white, and my mood was particularly beautiful. As I explored, I recited "The Memorial to the Emperor on Leaving the Capital" and commented on historical figures. I also checked in at Kuimen, took photos at the perfect spot, and ate bread in the breeze. The scenery was so beautiful and I felt so good that I didn't want to leave!
