The night view of Fenghuang Ancient Town is really nice!

The lights along the Tuojiang River at night are dazzling, and if you look closely, they are all super bright lights from photo studios and ladies dressed in various ethnic costumes. There are also the chaotic blue and purple lights from the bars across the river, it's so magical! 🌃Night View Strategy: Be aware that there are no online ride-hailing services locally, and there are only about 150 taxis in the whole city. If you arrive at Fenghuang Station at 8 pm, forget about getting a taxi; you can only take the ancient town shuttle bus (public bus, no guaranteed seating), Line 2 can take you to the Nanhua Gate Visitor Center, about half an hour. There are many steps on the way into the ancient town, and it's not easy to carry luggage, so don't bring large luggage. The evening is the prime time for photo studios; many local photo studios open in the afternoon and close at midnight. Recently, the ancient town has been vigorously developing travel photography, with a photo studio every ten steps, which is no exaggeration, and the quality varies, so you can look at more reviews to avoid the bad ones. Wandering around at night, heading towards Hongqiao is beautiful, there are performances on the river that last until 12 am, during this time living by the river can be quite noisy, but staying in a riverside room with a river view is also very convenient, as you can watch the night view from the balcony🎑. The mountains and forests of Xiangxi and the emerald Tuojiang River give Fenghuang a unique ancient town appearance, and without the commercialized shops, Fenghuang is still very beautiful~
