Returning to Hefei, my view of consumption has been subverted!

Family👋, just came back from Hefei playing around, this trip really shocked my consumption to "sparse"😲. I thought that traveling is about spending a lot of money, but Hefei gave me a big surprise. The value for money is beyond imagination! Now I can’t wait to talk to you about my trip to Hefei. Prepare before departure Before leaving, I was still confused about how much budget to bring, after all, everything costs money to play out. I simply packed my luggage 🧳, loaded up a few sets of comfortable clothes 👚, toiletries, sunscreen (always no matter when sunscreen can not be less), and photography essential charger 🔋. Of course, ID cards and a small amount of cash are mandatory in Mainland China, although it is very convenient to give money now, just in case. Transportation costs, focusing on an affordable ✈️ I took a plane to Hefei Xinqiao International Airport, after getting off the plane, I thought the transportation to the city would be a not small expense, but I found that there is an airport bus 🚌, only twenty dollars can directly reach the city, this price is quite cheap! 🚄 If you take the high-speed rail, the transportation of Hefei Station and Hefei South Station is super convenient, you can directly transfer to the subway in the station🚇. Hefei's subway lines can basically cover the main attractions, fares range from 2 - 7 yuan according to the distance, which is really very friendly. And I found that there are especially many shared bicycles in Hefei. Sometimes to go to a closer place, ride a shared bicycle for only a few dollars, and you can enjoy the scenery along the way. Accommodation, super high value for money The hotel I stayed at this time was located right in the city center, very close to several attractions. I thought the price of a hotel in this kind of location would be very expensive, but I found a super high value for money, only two hundred dollars a night, the room is clean and tidy, the facilities are very complete 🛏️. The key is that you can find all kinds of food and convenience stores just a few steps downstairs, which is too convenient. The attractions are great value for money 🎈Anhui Museum: Free to visit! It is simply a paradise for lovers of knowledge and art. The collection is rich and diverse, from ancient artifacts to modern artworks, each piece bears the historical and cultural heritage of Anhui📚. I wandered around all morning and was still not satisfied. And it’s easy to make an appointment, make an appointment in advance on the WeChat account and you can go straight in at no extra cost. 🎡Hefei Integrated Culture and Tourism City: Although I spent some money to buy tickets, it's really cheap! There are many exciting and fun rides, such as a big hammer and a roller coaster🎢, which made my heart beat faster and addictive. There are also all kinds of exciting performances that don’t get boring all day long. What surprised me the most was that you didn’t have to queue up to play many projects in the off-season. 🌳Xiaoyaojin Park: Another free treasure attraction. It is shady with green trees, the lake is rippling, and it is full of the charm of old Hefei. I was lounging in the park 🚶‍♀️, watching the children laughing and playing on the grass, feeling the slow life of Hefei, it was so relaxing. Food, cheap and delicious 🍜Yunzhou Roast Duck: This is Hefei's signature delicacy, crispy skin and tender meat, fat but not greasy, paired with special stewed sauce, one bite, full of happiness. The price of the whole roast duck is not expensive. It only costs a few tens of dollars per person to eat with friends. It's really satisfying. 🥟Yuzhou soup packets: small and slim soup packets, thin skin and large filling, rich soup. Take a bite, the delicious broth bursts in your mouth, the taste is gone! A cage of soup packets only costs 10 dollars, which is super good value for money. 🍲Fat Western Old Hen: The soup is fresh and delicious, the chicken stewed until soft and seasoned, nutritious and delicious. I ate at a local small restaurant. A set with chicken soup, rice and side dishes was only $30. 🍢Huaihe Road Pedestrian Street: This is simply a paradise for food, with a wide variety of snacks. Stinky tofu, toasted gluten, candied gourd... a portion of each, it doesn't cost much, you can taste all kinds of delicious food, it's so happy. Playing tips 🎫 Tickets: Book tickets in advance on the official website or public account, sometimes there will be discounts, you can save a lot of money. And be sure to pay attention to the opening hours of the attraction to avoid emptying. 🕙 Time: Plan your tour time reasonably and arrange the nearby attractions on the same day, so you can save transportation time and costs. 🍜Eat: Don't go to restaurants in scenic spots to eat. They are expensive and not necessarily good. Go to the residential area near the scenic spot, where there are many small restaurants frequented by locals, which are affordable and taste more authentic. Family, this trip to Hefei really made me re-examine my view of consumption. It turns out that travel can do big things with a small amount of money, have fun and have fun. Hefei is really a treasure city. I highly recommend everyone to visit it! 💕
