Taking the green train to Xiangyang

A city of Xiangyang, half of Chinese history. Liu Bei invited Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountains here, and from then on, the world was divided into three parts. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms spans 120 chapters, with over 30 mentioning Xiangyang During the Southern Song Dynasty, the rebel general Liu Zheng said: 'Without Xiangyang, there is no Huai River; without the Huai River, the world is easy to conquer.' Jin Yong wrote about Guo Jing and Huang Rong's final battle in Xiangyang, which was around this time Departing from Chengdu on Qingming Festival, using the least amount of time and a relatively cost-effective way of travel, I completed the main attractions of Xiangyang. For those from Chengdu, a 3-day trip to Xiangyang can refer to the following itinerary: On the first day after work, at 10 pm, there is a green train from Chengdu West Station to Xiangyang, arriving at 11:30 am the next day. The sleeper is cheaper than the second-class seat, and it also saves daytime. On the second day, after arriving in Xiangyang and checking into a hotel, have a meal and then go to Tang City. There are many Hanfu shops outside Tang City where you can change clothes and take lots of photos. On the third day, visit Gu Longzhong, the ancient city of Xiangyang, and truly feel the weight of history. On the fourth day, visit Mi Gongci, 603 Creative Park, Yangchun Park, and Xiangwang Mansion. Stroll through the streets of Xiangyang for a happy citywalk. Take the high-speed train at 5 pm and return to the East Station at 10 pm. Special reminders It's hard to get a taxi when coming out of Tang City at night, it's recommended to walk to the bus station and catch a bus. The stuff inside 603 Creative Park is expensive and not tasty, a tourist trap. It's best to take a taxi out and find a place to show off your meal. The green shadow wall at Xiangwang Mansion is very worth visiting. I almost missed it when I was halfway through my citywalk and saw the sign and realized it was on the way. It's still necessary to hire a guide at Gu Longzhong. I went during the Qingming Festival, and it was too crowded; wandering around on my own was a pity...
