-The whole journey on foot in the Three Gorges
D 1: Take K49 train from Beijing to Yichang at 22: 14 the night before, and arrive in Yichang at 9: 00 a.m. (hard seat 103 yuan/person). There are many travel agencies to take care of children at the railway station, so don't pay attention. Rest, eat, take a taxi to 8 yuan, Huangbaihe Wharf. You can see Gezhouba on Huangbaihe Bridge, and it's not too far to walk there. The hydrofoil at Huangbaihe Wharf is only available in the morning. We missed it. A small passenger ship with a travel agency package docked here. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, we took a two-hour bus ride to Shipai, and the fare was 10 yuan/person. You can watch Gezhouba from the boat in the middle. The travel agency buys tickets at Shipai Club. You don't have to worry about them. You can go ashore or go directly to Deng Ying Canyon by boat. Shipai is a scenic spot. From Shipai to the shore, all the way is a sightseeing road built along the river. You can walk to Deng Ying Canyon in half an hour. You have plenty of time today. If you disembark at the entrance of Deng Ying Canyon, you should be able to play in Deng Ying Canyon. I don't know if I can evade the ticket because I haven't been there. From the entrance of Deng Ying Canyon to the path along the river, you can soon reach Dangyangtou Group where the village party secretary lives. It takes an hour and a half to reach the home of Dangyang Tou Er Group Zhang. There is a concrete floor in front of his house, and 5-6 tents can be set up. The room is spacious and convenient for accommodation and eating. However, the lives of mountain people are relatively poor. Their meals are only vegetarian dishes, sour beans, eggs, bacon and rice porridge. We are basically like this on the trip. It is recommended to bring more food without a tent. People in their family are also very enthusiastic. They gave us some plums to eat. They are sweet and sour, and they are very delicious. I suggest you take some with you when you go on the road the next day.
After breakfast, Zhang showed us the way. After walking on the flat ground for a while, he began to descend. The road was covered with gravel. Pay attention to non-slip. After 40 minutes, he came to rest on an abandoned bridge by the river. Because there are two girls around me, it is sad to hear that there are two places in front of me, so we continue to let him lead the way. Later, when we passed by, it didn't feel too difficult. Just watch, hold it firmly and step on it. Climb the gravel slope about 10 meters high from the side of the small bridge to the plank road. This section of the road is not bad. Half an hour later, we passed two difficult places, and the three of us gave 40 yuan for two meals and tour guide fees. Further on, there are some narrow paths, with thatch and thorns on both sides that are more than one person high. At this time, you should change into long-sleeved underwear, and the plank road is basically flat. In some places, thatch will bury the path, but you can still find it if you look closely. 1 hour, 40 minutes to Nantuo (no supply all the way), where you can take Akebia (motorcycle) to Sandouping. Because I heard that there is a shuttle bus from Doushantuo to Sandouping, I kept going. It's very hot and there are many forks. We walked for 40 minutes to expressway, 10 yuan stopped a van to take us to Sandouping (the road from Nantuo to Doushantuo was all groping in the ground, which was meaningless. It's too tiring to walk by road, so we suggest giving up. The distance from Sandouping to Badong is very long, and the roads are all along the river, which makes no sense. It is best to go sightseeing by boat. The price of hydrofoil spacecraft is 58 yuan/person, 1.5 hours. We took the general passenger ship farewell party (standing ticket) of 13 yuan/person, which took four hours. Standing on the deck, you can enjoy the majestic posture of the Three Gorges Dam. At 8 o'clock in the evening, the ship docked in Badong, and the old city was basically deserted. There is only one row of restaurants near the pier, with accommodation, which is about 10 yuan/person. It should be possible to make a counter-offer. Due to the heavy physical consumption of marching at noon today, for safety reasons, we took a taxi 10 yuan to Badong Hotel and opened a standard room 120 yuan. Starting from the path on the right side of Badong Hotel, there are night markets on both sides of the avenue. It tastes good. Some things are different from here. There is also a 24-hour Internet cafe called Light Dance Flying.
D3: I ate (steamed stuffed bun, porridge, soybean milk) in the morning market next to the hotel. There is a van on the roadside to the riverside sand brick factory, 2 yuan/person, which takes 20 minutes. Badong must prepare enough water. There is no one on the road of Flame Stone, and there is no spring water. At first there was no road, so we walked along the river. Basically, it is a rocky slope inclined to the river. Pay attention to keep balance. There should be no problem. After arriving at the "show me around" place, the plank road is very comfortable to walk with a little difficulty in the middle. There are no stone steps. It's best to hand in your bag first, then climb up and get into the thorns. The second half of the flame stone is basically there. As we started late (165438+ 0: 00 a.m.), it took a lot of time to find our way on the road, so it was already 6: 00 p.m. when we crossed Lianzixi (5 yuan/Renren) and arrived at Lianzixi Village. As it's getting late, we added 20 yuan's money to let the boat take us directly to Yangjiapeng and climb to Yangjiapeng Primary School in the high place. It's already 8 o'clock in the evening. You can find tian teacher here to arrange accommodation and dinner. The room on the third floor is very cool. Tian teacher's wife's small potatoes are delicious, and you can take a bath on the roof. It's raining at night, and lightning and thunder are accompanied by ships coming and going on the river, which is another scenery. There are no big ships docked at Lianzixi and Yangjiapeng, but only small passenger ships are available at 10 from 2: 00 am to 3: 00 pm. If you get up early that day, you should be able to stay in Nanmu Garden.
D4: After breakfast, I paid for 40 yuan's room and board, and continued to walk along the gravel beach by the river to Nanmu Garden. I met the first snake on this trip here and disappeared in a flash. Animals are afraid of people after all. After walking for forty minutes, we saw a gap. We tried the waterway, but it didn't work. The Woods up are too dense. We had to stop a boat on the water and go straight to Shi Pei. Bypass the gap and find someone fishing there. The experience is that when we see the gap from a distance, we find an upward path, leave the river and bypass the gap from above. After crossing the gap, you will soon be able to get on the plank road. The location of the plank road here is also very distinctive. The whole mountain seems to be split by a sword, which is very spectacular. It is estimated that you should be alert if you want to walk. It takes 1 hour to get to Nanmu Garden by boat. Seen from the boat, the road from Nanmuyuan to Shi Pei is really difficult and the distance is very long. I suggest taking a boat. It was past noon 12 when we arrived at Speer. We had a simple meal in a small shop by the dock, swam in a nearby stream and spent the hottest noon after lunch break. At 3 pm, continue on the road. The road from Shi Pei to Qingshi is easier. Although it is still a two-foot-wide path, it is still thatched grass and thorns one person high, but the road at the foot is very clear. Last year, farmers in Beijing fell off a cliff here. After we left, we felt that it was enough to focus on the scenery instead of walking. There is a big hole in the road, which contains many messages and encouraging words, but there is still a considerable distance from Qingshi. Finally, we came to a concrete step road leading to the riverside pier. Don't be too happy. We have to walk for more than half an hour to get to Qingshi. This is just to see the twelve peaks of Wushan on both sides of the strait. Goddess peak is opposite to Qingshi, and she constantly encourages us to reach our destination when it is dark (it took us four hours to cultivate the stone to Qingshi). Qingshi accommodation can go to the famous Changqing Guijia (accommodation: 15 yuan/person; Catering: 5 yuan/person), if you bring a tent, you can live on the stone platform by the river, there are about 6-7, and each cement platform can have two accounts. There is an abandoned bamboo building by the river, you can live in it. There is also an old man who can cook for a living.
D5: I was awakened by two rains in the morning and came out to see the beautiful Wushan Yu Yun. The weather in Wushan is changeable, especially in goddess peak. Be sure to put away your raincoat, and be prepared for rain when camping at night. In the morning 10, a small passenger ship (1 yuan/person) crossing Shennv Creek docked and boarded 5 yuan/person. Two hours later, when we arrived in Wushan, the dock was crowded with people, so we came up along the path and left our bags in 3 yuan/Dabao and Guoguang Hotel. Take a taxi from 8 yuan to eat fish head hot pot in Xincheng. It's delicious. Just be careful when ordering noodles. Our 4 Liang noodles were charged 12 yuan. There is no bus to Futian after 2 pm. We chartered by 130 yuan, and it took us 3.5 hours to reach futian town. If there are few people, find someone to pack it on the way to Futian. It is estimated that each person is more than 20 yuan, which is similar to the price of taking a shuttle bus. Futian town is very lively. There is a road with shops on both sides. We stayed in 8 yuan, Furong Hotel and air-conditioned room in 20 yuan. The proprietress is good-looking, warm and thoughtful, and she also vacated the roof to hang clothes for us. The restaurant at Nail Road intersection tastes good. You can also eat in Liangshan Hotel, eat on the roof and see the scenery. It is also a place where people chat and experience folk customs. There is a stream near the town, where you can go for a bubble at night. If you don't want to go by land, it is said that there is a small passenger ship to Wuxi in Wushan, and the fare is 15 yuan/person, so you can see the Three Gorges and avoid the ticket. However, this kind of boat should be at the intersection of Daning River and Yangtze River in the east of the dock, so be careful not to take pictures when sitting on the boat to prevent being caught by management personnel.
D6: There is a bus from futian town to Dachang Ancient Town early in the morning, usually 5 yuan/person. You must leave early and get to the big factory for lunch. This is a passenger and freight car. Don't be too comfortable sitting inside. It takes 1.5 hours to stand in the trunk. There are beautiful scenery along the road. My experience is that it is best to take a bus to huilong town in the upper reaches of Daning River the afternoon before. The scenery here is so beautiful that you can go up and see Wuxi. The scenery here is much better than the Three Gorges, and it has the flavor of Guilin landscape. I will go to the big factory the next morning. Get off the bus, have steamed stuffed bun and soybean milk for breakfast, walk a short distance, then turn right to Dachang Ancient Town, with wooden houses in Ming and Qing Dynasties on both sides, and finally walk to Wen Jia Courtyard, 5 yuan/Renren. The descendants of the house will introduce its history to you for free. There are still many people selling the Three Gorges Stone in the street, which should be picked up from Daning River. Go back to Wushan by boat without going to Dachang wharf. You go all the way from Wen Jia Courtyard, and there is a small pier to the south of Gushimen. Shimen has a unique shape with an old tree growing on it. Tickets from Dachang to Wushan 15 yuan/person. The scenery along the way is very good. It takes three hours to Wushan, and we can catch the last bus to Daxi before two o'clock. We missed it, but we found the boat to Fengjie and agreed to dock at Daxi, but we bought a full ticket to Fengjie for 14 yuan. Two hours later, get off the boat at the north bank of Daxi, get on the plank road and walk to the signal station soon. There is little water along the way, so you should buy good water in Wushan. Starting from the signal station, it is still a two-foot wide path with several landslides in the middle. Pass carefully and quickly, put on your pants, and thorns are still stabbing your legs along the way. You should be able to walk to the storm gorge in an hour and a half, and you will see a big hole in the distance. Since then, it has been a repaired avenue with guardrails beside it. There is no problem walking at night. It takes an hour from Fengbo Gorge to Chijialou, from which you can look back at the spectacular Kuimen. It will take half an hour to get to Baidicheng. Taking the plank road is equivalent to taking the back door, so the 50 yuan ticket is saved. At this point, the Three Gorges on foot came to a successful conclusion. From Baidicheng, you can go to Fengjie by chartered bus or by boat, but it's not too late. Recently, this road should be repaired. The road is closed and you can only take a boat. Since the boat to Fengjie was delayed until after 1 in the evening, we slept on the second floor of the boat dock, where we got the warm help from the dock staff Wang Pangzi.
D7: Take a boat to Fengjie 3 yuan in the morning, have breakfast, take a spaceship to Wanxian, and visit Zhangfei Temple on the way. When we arrived in Wanxian, there was no spaceship to Fengdu. We took a large passenger ship, which was very slow. We crossed Shi Baozhai in the middle of the night, but we all fell asleep. D8: Go to Fengdu Ghost Town at 6: 00 in the morning, stay in 2 yuan/person, enter 60 yuan/person, and take a tour bus to visit the 18th floor of Hell, 4 yuan/person. I didn't find it interesting after I went there. Fengdu goes to Chongqing and takes a long-distance bus to 54 yuan. You can also go to Fuling by boat to see Baiheliang (you can only see it before and after the Spring Festival or in the dry season), and then take a bus from Fuling to Chongqing. Chaotianmen Bus Terminal has Chongqing Hotel, with preferential standard room 188 yuan. There is a Du Yu Guest House next to it, with four people 15 yuan (closed at the end of August) and hot water. In order to eat better, we will live in worse places. Tidy up, visit the Liberation Monument on foot, then go to the snack street FB of Bayi Road, and then go to the reading club to surf the Internet, 3 yuan/hour. After dark, take a taxi from 30 yuan to a tree viewing platform across the river to see the night view of Chongqing. This is the best viewing position, viewing platform 5 yuan/person. Pavilion +5 yuan/person. Then take a taxi from 4 yuan to FB, Quanshuiji Street behind the mountain. Take a taxi back to the hotel or 30 yuan. There's nothing to say all night. Pay attention to theft prevention in key buildings!
D9: Roadside breakfast, there is a special bus from 3 yuan to Shapingba at the gate, or take any bus to Shapingba, take the 220 bus in the opposite direction, 1 yuan to Guzhen Cikou, which is enough for you to kill 2-3 hours. If it is afternoon, you can also go to the teahouse to perform folk art. This restaurant is characterized by an adequate blood supply. They all call themselves Lao Tzu. Try one. There are other special snacks, such as salted peanuts, barbecue and dough twists. Some buildings are newly built, and deep in the alley are Ming and Qing quadrangles and Hanlin ancient houses. Baolun Temple is in town. Porcelain mouth now also has its own products, there are specialty stores, and the gift package contains hot pot ingredients, saliva fish, soy bean curd and bean paste. Porcelain mouth is very close to Geleshan. You can go and have a look when you are free. Take bus No.220 from Ciqikou to Shapingba, the terminal, and then take bus No.2 1 0 to Caiyuanba Railway Station, which is also1yuan/person. Pay attention to the time on the road. It took us nearly two hours to get to Cikou by car from the hotel. In the afternoon 15: 08, I took the super slow train from Chongqing to Zhengzhou for 2222 times, which took 26 hours to arrive in Zhengzhou. The hard sleeper fare was 173 yuan/person.
Others:
1) By September 2002, the Three Gorges Dam began to store water. By June 2003, the water level could reach 135 meters, and all the rockfill dams above the dam were flooded.
2) The boats on the Three Gorges are basically 10 from morning to 2 pm. It should be noted that missing the boat will delay the time.
3) If you can't get to Chongqing, you can take a boat back to Yichang from Fengjie and then return. The scenery going up is meaningless. Zhangfei Temple will move to the North Shore and Shi Baozhai will have a retaining wall. The ghost town is a bit exaggerated, and you can't see the white crane beam. Attractive are Chongqing's scenic snacks and hot pot, which will greatly increase your expenses from Fengjie.
4) Due to the soil erosion in the upper reaches and the construction of the Three Gorges Dam, the water in the Yangtze River is basically muddy yellow, and the rapids in our impression have long since disappeared. The best scenery for hiking in the Three Gorges is its plank road.
5) With regard to equipment, considering the weather, intensity and difficulty, it is recommended to bring more food instead of tents. Accommodation along the way is not too expensive. Plan the time, arrive at the station before dark, and never walk at night.
