Practical guide to Enshi Grand Canyon, not tiring for the whole journey

Firstly, it is suggested to buy a Hubei Huimin Card first, a 200-year card, and the first gate tickets for most scenic spots in Hubei are exempted.

Secondly, I want to complain about their scenic spot bus, which must be bought at each scenic spot. Can't it be included in the ticket price? I feel better at least, but they have to blatantly charge me more money.

Here comes the main topic:
Ticket (must buy): 155
Scenic spot bus (must buy): Ground cable + bus 50
Cable car (voluntary): Upward 150, downward 80
Downward escalator (voluntary): 30
Yunlong Difeng sightseeing elevator (voluntary): 30

Accommodation:
The Enshi Grand Canyon is quite far from Enshi, usually more than two hours, or you can stay in a nearby homestay. I chose to stay in Enshi city all the time, where there are many food choices.

Itinerary:
When you arrive at the scenic spot, the tour guide and the scenic spot will generally recommend a route for healthy people: Enter the scenic spot and take the ground cable, then go directly to the cable car up station (the end of the cable car), then climb the mountain to a stick of incense, return, you can take the escalator down on the way back. Then go to Yunlong Difeng, walk to the end and take the sightseeing elevator or climb 999 steps up, then walk back to the visitor center.
This is actually a route that costs both physical strength and money. The scenery does not see much more, and they will not tell you that the ground cable comes down and you can take a bus directly to the entrance of the hike, which depends entirely on your own strategy.

Recommended route:

1. Ground cable + bus (the mandatory 50 yuan scenic spot bus fee) directly to the entrance of the hike.

2. Climb the mountain to the cable car up station, which is the end station. The scenery along the way is excellent and there are very few people, because everyone is led by the tour guide to take the cable car.
If you feel unwilling to climb to the top once, you can climb to the middle sky gate and return to the cable car up station.
Don't climb anymore. Firstly, once you go forward, you can't go back, you must go to the top; secondly, besides climbing the mountain, it's just climbing the mountain, just to get a glimpse of the stick of incense in your heart (Figure 1), it's really unnecessary.

3. Buy a down cable car and come down (80 yuan), just overlooking the panorama of Yunlong Difeng.
At this time, you will find that the exit of the cable car is crowded with people, all flocking to climb the mountain, and there are almost no people at the down place, and you can catch the off-season.

4. Go straight to the entrance of the crack and enter Yunlong Difeng.
At this moment, the people who came with you went to the top, and those who went late were still queuing for the cable car. You have already arrived at the crack, and there are not many people.
You can take your time to take pictures, watch waterfalls, rainbows, and touch the cool and clear spring water with your own hands, which is really cool.

5. Walk to the second waterfall, or see the suspension bridge, you can return. (Walk to the public toilet at the farthest, there is a viewing platform, everyone is taking pictures)
Because if you go further, the scenery is the same, and finally you have to turn back. The narrow road can't get through, you will be scolded, walk to the end, then you have to climb 999 steps, or take a sightseeing elevator, the point is, after going up, you have to walk to the visitor center under the unobstructed sun. How long did it take to enter the crack, and how long it took to go back, it is a complete return. Isn't it fragrant to sway back in the cool crack?

After walking the whole journey, it's not tiring, it doesn't cost money, it's not crowded, the beautiful scenery is also seen, and the itinerary for the second day is not delayed.
