FENG HUANG LAO CAI GUAN

It was a magical day. I was still in Yangshuo in the morning to watch the mountains and water, and arrived at Fenghuang Ancient Town in the afternoon. After checking in at the hotel, I wandered around in the ancient town. It was just time for dinner here. I read the reviews and found them good, so I decided to settle here at night. [Mint] Environment: The store is not big, but there is another world after entering. The second floor is not small, and there are private rooms. The important thing is that there is air conditioning, which is really life-saving. [Service bell] Service: The boss is very good, very patient when ordering dishes, and will suggest dishes and portions. The price of dishes is also approachable. You can rest assured that the boss recommends here, and there will be no situation of overcharging customers. The dishes, dry pot pig intestines, have a lot of ingredients, so they are very flavorful and taste very fragrant. After eating, the celery and bean sprouts in it are especially delicious with rice. Fried old bacon, the bacon in it is smoked, and stir-fried with dried chili and green pepper, which is particularly spicy. Fish head tofu, the fish head is very tender, the portion is also large, and it is stewed in a casserole with old tofu, which is very delicious and the soup is also delicious. Garlic water spinach, it is no exaggeration to say that this is the best vegetarian dish I have eaten in the 8 days I have been out. The garlic flavor is very strong and delicious. This restaurant is located next to Hongqiao, and I recommend everyone to try it.

Xiangzi Old Restaurant - one of the many restaurants near Hongqiao in Fenghuang Ancient Town. Original price 93 yuan for two people: Blood Duck 48 yuan (small hot pot, chief delicacy, blood glutinous rice and duck, soybean sprouts at the bottom, spicy and good), Minced Pork Rice Tofu 20 yuan (tender and smooth), Pickled Radish 15 yuan (crisp), Tea and Rice Paper 2 yuan each. Special group purchase 29 yuan. Not enough for two people, too full for one person! The store is very friendly and will not discriminate against group purchases. The portion is large and the taste is good overall.

⛳Fenghuang Ancient Town 🕒 Night Tour Time: Best to enter after 5:00 PM! First, watch the sunset gild the stilt houses. After 7:30 PM, the lights come on and the ancient town is instantly engulfed in a "glazed night," where the interweaving of light and shadows and the Tuojiang River is a truly breathtaking spectacle. 🎟️ Parking and Tickets: The main street of the ancient town is free, but smaller attractions like Shen Congwen's former residence require a combined ticket. If you're driving, navigate to the "Hongqiao Middle Road Parking Lot" (10 yuan/day), a 10-minute walk to the core area for hassle-free and traffic-free access. ✨ Must-See Highlights: ✅ Picturesque Bridge: The multi-story covered bridge with flying eaves is the centerpiece of the night view! Warm yellow lights outline the eaves, and the reflections in the bridge arches are dyed blue like diamonds, shimmering in sync with the ripples of the Tuojiang River, creating a feeling of being transported into the Milky Way. ✅ B&Bs: Many of the ancient buildings along the river are B&Bs. Red lanterns announcing "Today's Room Available" hang from carved wooden railings, warm light streams through balconies, and the occasional owner hangs a blue shirt hanging to dry. The air of life is woven into the details. 😋 Dining Guide: 📍Fenghuang Old Cuisine Restaurant (Hongqiao Middle Road Branch) is a must-try! Stir-fried bacon and bamboo shoots with chili peppers (fragrant but not greasy), and beef in red soup (spicy and satisfying), paired with a side of smashed cucumber to cut through the spiciness, offer a truly Hunan-style experience. 📍[Food Season (Fenghuang Ancient Town Branch)] is even more amazing! The chopped pepper fish head is topped with bright red chopped peppers, and the fish is so tender it melts in your mouth. The meaty broth, sprinkled with chopped green onions, is so delicious you could drink three bowls. 🏘️Spend the night by the Tuojiang River, open the window and watch the light boats sway. This is truly Fenghuang—poetry by day, a scroll of fireworks by night. #ComeHereToSeeTheMostBeautifulSunset #AncientTownsAndVillagesWorthVisiting #SummerSelf-DrivingDestinations #PhotoGuideToScenicSpots #WhereToGoThisWeekend

🌈Attractions: The ancient city of Fenghuang on the banks of the Tuojiang River in Xiangxi, Hunan was built in the Tang Dynasty and prospered in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It has a history of more than 1,300 years and was once the political, military, cultural and economic center of Xiangxi. The streets and alleys of the ancient city are freely stretched, the space is flexible and changeable, and the cultural heritage is profound. It is one of the famous historical and cultural cities in my country and one of the top ten cultural heritages in Hunan. It is known as "the most beautiful small town in China" and enjoys the reputation of "Pingyao in the north and Fenghuang in the south". The light show at night gives you a sense of time travel, and the music in the bar and the breeze are beautiful and romantic. I still like this place! ! ! 🎟️Tickets: Free to visit the ancient city, some attractions charge fees such as Shen Congwen’s former residence 🕐️Scenic area opening hours: 24 hours 💗Other tips: There is a tourist information desk just after getting off the highway, which is very considerate. It is best to book a hotel with parking in advance to save trouble. We had dinner at the Old Phoenix Restaurant. The service was great and the food was delicious! ! !

The bigger the pattern, the bigger the stage! This store is not ranked first in Fenghuang Ancient City, but the word "public welfare" on the business is really eye-catching. Well, I came here for this word. [Environment] The store is very cool, which is very friendly to the hot ancient city. [Miao Family Blood Baba Duck Hot Pot] | Miao Family Blood Baba Duck Hot Pot^ You must try it, the taste is super good. Blood Baba is similar to the Korean rice sausage, and it is very fragrant after being sliced ​​and fried. With the participation of chili, the duck meat tastes very much like spicy duck, which is very addictive and tasty. [Signature Stone Pot Fish] Because we brought the children, we chose not to be spicy. The fish soup is delicious, a bowl of ecstasy. The spicy soy sauce provided by the boss lady is so fragrant and delicious. It is the best chili oil I have ever eaten. Sisters who like chili must try it! [Scrambled Eggs with Corn Acid] Corn is corn kernels, and corn acid is corn kernels that are ground and fermented. Because it is fried, it is very fragrant, and the taste is still unforgettable. This dish is also highly recommended! The group purchase set is very large. I hope that sisters who are visiting Fenghuang Ancient Town can try it if it is convenient. Every dish will not be a thunder. For every order we make, the boss will donate to the playground of the mountain village primary school to build a solid running track for children. I also wish the boss's business will get better and better.
