Chongqing Wushan | A severely underestimated place
Wushan is a severely underestimated place. A friend from Chongqing told me that before the Three Gorges Dam was built, it belonged to Sichuan, but it was not given attention, transportation was very inconvenient, and there was only waterway in and out, so many people have only heard of Wushan but have never been there.
After the Three Gorges Dam was built, the old county town of Wushan was flooded, the Three Gorges Hydropower belongs to Wuhan, Hubei, and Wushan still did not get development.
Wushan County, located in the northeast of Chongqing, is in the core area of the Three Gorges Reservoir, bordering Hubei. During the Warring States Period, it belonged to the Wu Prefecture of the Chu State, and the Wushan County was established during the reign of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, and this name has been used to this day.
Why is Wushan severely underestimated? Because its cultural and tourism resources are very rich, it is the core of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River. Among them, the Small Three Gorges is the first batch of national 5A scenic spots. In addition, there are Shennv Peak, Shennv Creek, Dachang Ancient Town, Qingshi Ancient Town, Xiazhuan Tianlu and other scenic spots, as well as some places that have not yet been developed.
In addition to the beautiful scenery, the food in Wushan is also very good. The most famous is Wushan Grilled Fish, which is the best grilled fish in Chongqing. The taste is very good. Even I, a Guangdong person who doesn't eat spicy food, can't help but keep eating even if it's spicy.
Today we took a boat to visit the Small Three Gorges scenic area. The whole journey took four hours. The scenery along the way was magnificent. The river was sometimes wide and sometimes narrow, the mountain top was sometimes waterfall and sometimes cloud and mist, various landscapes came oncoming, it was dazzling, and there were ancient hanging coffins on the stone walls on both sides. You can enjoy the scenery and listen to stories, and the four hours passed without knowing it.
The ticket price for the Small Three Gorges cruise is 120 yuan. If you ask me if the ticket price is worth it? I think it's very worth it. You should know that the fare for a four-hour car ride is more than 120 yuan, and the fare for a four-hour high-speed rail is even more expensive. But this 120 yuan cruise can enjoy the scenery all the way, which is pleasing to the eye. Unfortunately, the mobile phone camera can't capture the grandeur of the Small Three Gorges, and the boat is always moving and can't take aerial shots, so you can only enjoy it with your eyes.
PS: After visiting the Small Three Gorges, we continued to take a boat to Shennv Creek. Tonight we will stay in a homestay by the river. When we open the window, we can see Shennv Peak. Unfortunately, the top of the peak is always shrouded in clouds and mist. Looking forward to a good weather tomorrow to see the sunrise.
PPS: Now the transportation in Wushan is very convenient, not only has it opened up highways, but also high-speed rail and airplanes. It only takes two hours to get here by high-speed rail from Chongqing.
If you want to take a boat, you can go for three hours. Hahahahaha is too worth it. There have never been an attraction that can take such a long boat. I took an hour of bus first. There are hanging coffins on both sides. The scenery is also good. The fare is very worth it.
I took my parents to avoid the peak period and went directly to the third floor. I think these 30 people are really good value. They are counted back and forth. It happens that the weather is very cool. It is not sunbathing on the third floor. Making tea, blowing the wind, watching the small Three Gorges, it is really too pleasant! ! !
Very quiet and beautiful, the whole four hours, there is a promotion of local products, but there is no forced consumption, in short, the scenery is pleasant, and I saw the little monkey on the shore, planted grass, and I will come again if I have a chance.
Although it is winter, the green mountains on both sides of the Straits are still refreshing... Come to Wushan to experience the small Three Gorges. The 4-hour round-trip waterway is worth the fare. The narrator on the boat is also very enthusiastic. It doesn't feel boring all the way. Of course, the most important thing is because the scenery is so beautiful!
The overall experience is very good, the whole journey is four hours round trip, although it is winter, I feel very comfortable, recommended. All the service staff I met were very good. But I also want to give a suggestion. As a 5a scenic spot, there is really a lot of time to recommend products on the return trip. Although it feels very hard and has a good attitude, it is really not suitable. It is recommended to find other forms to combine to sell goods. In addition, there are three floors of the boat. When you go to the first and second floors, there is no extra charge. The top floor needs to add 30 tea fees. When you return, you can sit on the second and top floors after paying 30 tea fees. Free tourists are on the first floor. But on the return trip, it seems that everyone can come to the second floor and the top floor (not very sure), resulting in no location on the second floor, at least for a while. The flaws are not concealed, and a sentence of comment is still a good trip.
Traveling on the boat for a long time, the scenery along the river bank is beautiful. If it does not rain, the third floor of the boat is a good place to observe. Green water and green mountains can be reflected here. There are explanations on the boat along the way. It is very beautiful to follow the explanation.
Exceeding the expected value, it is worth taking a boat tour, it is worthy of being a famous scenic spot, it is estimated that when there are red leaves, it is estimated that it is beautiful. We are out in the off-season and it is also beneficial. The tourists are moderate, quiet and not noisy, suitable for friends to gather and travel!
