Trip Overview Day 1: Enshi Tusi City - Daughter City Day 2: Enshi Grand Canyon - Yunlong Land Crack Day 3: Tenglong Cave - Qingjiang Gallery (Butterfly Cliff) Daily Itinerary Day 1: Exploring the Ancient City, Tracing Folk Customs Arriving in Enshi in the morning, our first stop was Enshi Tusi City. This landmark, the largest and most distinctive Tusi cultural site in China, carries a rich history😃. Stepping into the ancient city, the imposing gate towers and simple city walls transport you back to the era of Tusi rule.

The stalactites, each with its unique form, appeared dreamlike under the illumination. The laser show and folk song and dance performances added another layer of charm to the cave, leaving us amazed.

The water of the Qingjiang River was crystal clear and emerald green, flanked by continuous mountain peaks.

#2024TravelReview #EnshiGrandCanyon is a popular 5A scenic spot in Hubei Province. It has a canyon cliff landform that is as spectacular as the Grand Canyon. The canyon is 108 kilometers long and covers hundreds of miles of cliffs, thousands of feet of waterfalls, towering peaks, primeval forests, ancient villages and other attractions. The landforms are diverse and rich, and it is quite worth seeing! The Enshi Grand Canyon is mainly composed of "karst" landforms, that is, limestone landforms, including cliffs, peaks, cenotes, fissures, caves, natural bridges, underground rivers, vertical shafts, stone forests, peak clusters, hanging valleys, etc., forming a rare three-dimensional lava landform. Walking from the Yunlong River fissure into the Zhongshan area, the main attractions include the Line of Sky, the Cliff Corridor, and a Stick of Incense. There are many strange rocks in Enshi Canyon. "One Pillar of Incense" is a peak pillar that is more than 150 meters high and has a minimum diameter of only 4 meters. It can be said to be the treasure of the Grand Canyon. The entire scenic area is covered by lush primeval forests, with flourishing vegetation everywhere, the air is very fresh, and it is very cool and comfortable to walk. The only drawback is that there are too many people and it lacks a sense of tranquility. #HubeiTourism #Enshi #EnshiGrandCanyon #KarstTerrain

#2024TravelReview #YunlongDifeng, a 5A-level scenic spot in Enshi, Hubei, is a crack formed by the squeezing of strata caused by the orogenic movement thousands of years ago. The Yunlong River flows through it, which is a very rare canyon ground fissure landscape. Walking into the ground crack trail, you will feel a special sense of shade, which is very suitable for a visit in summer. The Yunlong Fissure is about 20 kilometers long, and the narrowest part of the fissure is only about 10 meters wide. The average height difference is about 75 meters, so many waterfalls are formed. The torrents rush down and flow into the Yunlong River. The amount of water is quite abundant. You have to wear a raincoat to watch the waterfall so as not to get wet by the water vapor. Yunlong Ground Fissure is part of the Enshi Scenic Area and is a popular tourist attraction. If you come too late, there will be so many people that you can't get through. It is recommended that you come early and walk through Yunlong Ground Fissure to the Enshi Grand Canyon and Qixingzhai. Don't follow the crowds, otherwise it will reduce the quality of your trip. #HubeiTourism #EnshiGrandCanyon #YunlongGroundFissure

I recently took a trip to Enshi and visited Enshi Tujia Daughter City, known as the "No. 1 Daughter City in the World". After this trip, my feelings are quite complicated. Today, I will share my travel guide with you to help you avoid the pitfalls and let you know how to have more fun! 📍Attraction address: It is in Enshi, Hubei. Just navigate directly to "Enshi Tujia Daughter City". The location is very easy to find. It is very well-known locally. Just ask anyone and they can point you in the right direction. 🚗Attraction transportation: If you are driving there, you don’t have to worry about parking at all. There is a dedicated parking lot in the scenic area. Although it can be a bit crowded sometimes, there is always a place to park, and the parking fee is reasonable. If you don’t want to drive, it is also convenient to take public transportation. There are many bus lines in the city that can take you directly to Daughter City, which only costs a few dollars, which is economical and affordable. If you choose to take a taxi, it will cost about ten to twenty dollars from the city center. It is also very cost-effective if you split the cost with a group of people. 👍️Must-visit attractions: - Featured Tujia architecture: The entire Daughter City is a man-made Tujia ancient city. The featured architecture and Tujia stilted buildings inside are really worth seeing. The flying eaves, brackets, carved doors and windows are full of Tujia folk customs. Any random shot will be a great photo. It is recommended to take pictures in the evening. The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the buildings, which creates a great atmosphere. - Folk performance area: There are often various folk performances here, such as the Hand-waving Dance and Rou Lian Xiang, traditional Tujia dances. The performers are very professional and the performances are very exciting. Be sure to check the performance times on the scenic area bulletin board or official account in advance, and go early to grab a good spot to immerse yourself in the cultural charm of the Tujia people. 🎟️Ticket information: Here comes the important part! Daughter City is free to enter, which is really great . You can go in and wander around without spending a penny. However, some individual recreational activities inside, such as the Ferris wheel, require additional fees. The prices are still reasonable. The Ferris wheel costs about CNY 20–30 per ride. You can choose whether or not to play according to your preferences. 💗Other tips: - Avoid peak hours: There are really a lot of people on weekends and holidays. The streets are full of people, and the experience will be greatly reduced. If time permits, try to go on a working day, which will be much more leisurely. If you can only go on weekends, then leave early. There are relatively few people in the morning, and you don’t have to wait in line to take pictures. - About Trip Moments: It is true that, as everyone said, the roadside is full of Trip Moments shops and people taking pictures. If you want to take a beautiful ethnic-style photo, be sure to compare several shops . Some shops have poor-quality clothes, poor makeup skills, and charge randomly. You can check other people’s reviews online and choose a shop with a good reputation. The price is generally between CNY 300–800, including clothing, makeup, and photography. - Food avoidance: It is not recommended to eat in the scenic area, as the prices are more expensive and the taste is average. Most of the snacks in the scenic area are for tourists and are not very special. You can look for local restaurants in the alleys around the scenic area. The prices are affordable and the taste is authentic . Be sure to try Enshi small potatoes, Hezha and other special delicacies. - Arrangement of visit time: If you are just strolling around, half a day is enough; if you want to take photos and watch performances, it is recommended to arrange a whole day. Daughter City at night has a special flavor. When the lights are on, the ancient city has another kind of beauty . In general, although Enshi Tujia Daughter City has some minor shortcomings, it is still worth a visit as a free scenic spot. Especially for those who are interested in Tujia culture or like to take photos, it is quite interesting to come here to experience the Tujia customs and take a group of beautiful photos . However, it is best to do your research before you go, so that you can have more fun and avoid detours! I hope my guide can help you and wish you a pleasant trip in Enshi!

🌄Here comes the ultimate travel guide to Enshi Grand Canyon! Enshi Grand Canyon is truly a treasure trove in my heart. After visiting it this time, I was simply fascinated by its beauty. Today, I'm here to share my super detailed guide with everyone. Transportation Departing from Enshi city, taking the scenic direct bus is the most convenient option. The journey takes about an hour. Sitting on the bus, you can feel the scenery along the way gradually becoming more spectacular. If you are driving, directly search for "Enshi Grand Canyon" on the GPS. The road signs along the way are also very clear, so there is no need to worry about getting lost. Tickets The ticket is CNY 170, including two scenic areas: Yunlong Ground Fissure and Qixingzhai. I suggest that you must book online in advance, so that you can not only enjoy discounts, but also avoid the trouble of queuing on site. Also, remember to keep your e-ticket safe. You can simply scan your ID card to enter the park. Play time I suggest that you arrange at least one day to play, and if you have enough time, two days would be even more perfect. Depart early in the morning, so you can avoid the crowds and enjoy the most peaceful beauty. Moreover, in the evening, standing on the edge of the canyon, watching the sunset shining on the mountains, that kind of romance is really beyond words. Attraction Recommendation Yunlong Ground Fissure As soon as I entered the scenic area, I was shocked by the Yunlong Ground Fissure in front of me. This is a deep canyon with steep cliffs on both sides and a rushing river in the middle. Walking on the plank road, listening to the roar of the river, it seems that you can feel the power of nature. Moreover, there are many strange rocks here, each with its own story, which makes people can't help but stop and watch. Qixingzhai Qixingzhai is the essence of the entire Grand Canyon. The peaks here are towering into the clouds and have different shapes. My favorite is "A Pillar of Incense". The straight stone pillar is like a magic pen falling from the sky, standing in the valley. Climbing to the top of the mountain and overlooking the entire canyon, that kind of open view is really refreshing. However, the process of climbing the mountain is a bit hard, so everyone must wear comfortable shoes and take sun protection measures. Food Recommendation There are many local delicacies near the scenic area. I highly recommend that you try Enshi's Tujia bacon. The taste is really fragrant but not greasy. You will never forget it after one bite. There is also Tujia community rice, which contains bacon, dried tofu, and peanuts. The combination is just right and it is super delicious. If you want to eat something sweet, try Ciba. It is soft, glutinous and sweet, which is really amazing. Shopping There are many stalls in the scenic area selling local specialty souvenirs. I bought a Tujia brocade pendant. The workmanship is very exquisite and it has ethnic characteristics. It is more than suitable to take it home as a decoration. However, when you buy things, remember to bargain, so you can buy more affordable things. Accommodation If you want to stay near the scenic area for one night, there are many B&Bs to choose from. The B&B I stayed in has a very good environment. You can see the mountain view by opening the window. Moreover, the owner is very enthusiastic and will recommend delicious and fun things to everyone. However, you must book in advance, otherwise there may be no rooms available.

| All Downhill & Effortless One-Day Tour Guide. Enshi Grand Canyon Travel Guide: Climb mountains, see the ground seam, and practice your courage! If there is a place in Hubei where you can "tremble on the cliffside path in the morning, feel cool in the ground seam in the afternoon, and crave smoked pork in the evening," it must be Enshi Grand Canyon! This is not only the "Chinese version of the Colorado Grand Canyon" but also a "natural museum" of karst landforms—with strange peaks, ground seams, waterfalls, hanging coffins, and a group of Tujia locals who know how to enjoy life even more than you do (they even build their houses on cliffs)! 📜 Why You Must Visit Enshi Grand Canyon: 1. Yunlong Ground Seam, "Earth's Most Beautiful Scar": A 75-meter deep and 3.6-kilometer long ground seam. Walking inside feels like stepping into the set of "Journey to the Center of the Earth"—cool and exciting. 2. "A Stick of Incense" Spectacle: A slender stone pillar 150 meters high that has stood firm against wind and rain for millions of years, truly a "natural tumbler." 3. Cliffside Path: A glass path hanging on a 300-meter high cliff. Not for the faint of heart (or bring a safety belt). 4. Fewer Crowds and Beautiful Scenery: Compared to the crowded Zhangjiajie, there are half as many tourists here, making it suitable for "socially awkward travelers." 🤣 Humorous Tips: - On the cliffside path, "weak legs for 5 minutes, photos for 2 hours" is the basic operation. - If you ask the guide, "Will the 'Stick of Incense' fall?" they might smile and answer, "If it falls, consider yourself lucky." 🚶‍♂️ Efficient Itinerary: 2 Days 1 Night "Grand Canyon Rhapsody" Day 1: Qixingzhai + Cliffside Path (Leg Workout Special) - Morning: Conquer Qixingzhai, see "A Stick of Incense" and "Welcoming Pine." After climbing 26,000 steps, your WeChat Sports will be legendary. - Noon: Eat smoked pork fried rice at the scenic area (so delicious you'll want to pack it, but you can't carry it while climbing). - Afternoon: Challenge the cliffside path. The glass section has a 300-meter deep abyss under your feet. It is recommended to walk while holding the wall (or crawl with your eyes closed). - Evening: Stay at Nv'erzhai Hotel (budget-friendly, CNY 300/night) or return to Enshi city for late-night snacks. Day 2: Yunlong Ground Seam + Tujia Customs (Relaxed Version) - Morning: Explore Yunlong Ground Seam, watch the waterfall cascading from the top of the seam, like a natural air conditioner (super cool in summer). - Noon: Eat He Zha mixed rice (Tujia version of "tofu brain rice bowl"). - Afternoon: Visit Tusi City or Nv'er City, watch Tujia song and dance performances, and buy some selenium tea as souvenirs (don't ask "what is selenium," just think of it as a "longevity element"). 🍜 Nearby Food: You Need to Eat Well to Have the Strength to Climb 1. Smoked Pork (full of smoky flavor, perfect with rice). 2. He Zha (bean dregs + vegetables, Tujia version of "low-carb set meal"). 3. Fried Potatoes (crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, don't worry about them getting cold while walking). 4. Bowl-Smashing Wine (drink a bowl of rice wine and smash a bowl, Tujia version of "decompression artifact"). 🤣 Humorous Tips: - When eating smoked pork, don't ask "Is it fatty?" The Tujia people will reply, "Is it still smoked pork if it's not fatty?" - The amount of Bowl-Smashing Wine ≈ "slightly drunk set meal." It is recommended not to challenge the cliffside path immediately after drinking. 🏨 Accommodation Recommendations: You Can Sleep "On the Edge of a Cliff" Even on a Budget 💰 CNY 100-300/night 1. Budget hotels in Enshi city (Home Inn, Hanting, convenient transportation). 2. Nv'erzhai Homestay (in the scenic area, mountain views from the window, CNY 200 in the off-season). 3. Youth hostel bed (CNY 50/night, suitable for "special forces" backpackers). 🤣 Humorous Tips: - The principle of choosing accommodation: "Close to the scenic area = can sleep 10 minutes more in the morning." - If you stay in a youth hostel, be careful of roommates reciting "Tujia Folk Songs" in the middle of the night. 🚗 Transportation Guide - High-speed train: Wuhan → Enshi (4 hours), then take a bus to the scenic area (1.5 hours). - Self-driving: 3 hours from Yichang, the scenery along the way is so beautiful that you'll want to stop and take pictures. - Group tour: One-day tour approx. CNY 200-400, including transportation and tickets (suitable for lazy people). 📌 Practical Information - Tickets: Qixingzhai + Yunlong Ground Seam combo ticket CNY 200 (CNY 10 cheaper if you book online). - Best season: April-October (summer for escaping the heat, autumn for seeing red leaves). - Things to Avoid: - Don't wear slippers for climbing (the ground seam is slippery, and the cliffside path is rough). - Don't buy "expensive selenium tea" in the scenic area. It's more cost-effective to go to the supermarket in the city. 🤣 Final Words: Enshi Grand Canyon is suitable for "outdoor enthusiasts + geology fans + foodies"—you can be an explorer in the morning, a gourmet in the afternoon, and doubt your life in the Bowl-Smashing Wine in Nv'er City in the evening: "Did I come here to travel or to work out my legs?" 🏞️📸 (This guide is a compilation from major travel websites, and prices are for reference only. A Stick of Incense wants to give you a thumbs up!)
