0718-8988555A 61-year-old woman traveled to Enshi for 7 days and 6 nights.
Enshi, Hubei, a tourist destination full of natural wonders. A 61-year-old woman traveled to Enshi alone, visited Daughter City and Tusi City, saw Xianshan Gongshui, climbed mountains and visited the four major geological wonders. She didn't feel tired or sore, challenged herself, and succeeded! 🏞️ Day 1: Arrive in Enshi and visit Tujia Daughter City at night. See the big embroidered ball, visit the food street, and enjoy the bonfire party. 🏞️ Day 2: Carpool to Luyuanping, a karst landform formed by 250 million years of evolution. Stay in the Grand Canyon at night. 🏞️ Day 3: Visit the Grand Canyon, known as the "most beautiful scar on earth." Carpool back to Enshi (buses are available). 🏞️ Day 4: The road is slippery and the scenery is not beautiful due to the rain, so take the opportunity to rest and relax. Visit Tusi City in the morning, take bus No. 30. Visit Xianshan Gongshui in Xuan'en at night, take a ride-hailing car. 🏞️ Day 5: Visit Suobuya Stone Forest, an Ordovician landform formed 460 million years ago. Take a bus to and from the passenger center. 🏞️ Day 6: Visit Dixin Valley, the world's longest karst gorge area. Take a minibus from the passenger center, and take a train back to Enshi from Gaoping Station. 🚌 Day 7: Say goodbye to Enshi. ⭐ 7 days and 6 nights, cost CNY 1,479 (excluding round-trip transportation from other places to Enshi), including CNY 584 for scenic spot tickets and transportation (half price for seniors aged 60–69). CNY 358 for transportation outside the scenic spot. CNY 180 for food (including fruits and dry food). CNY 357 for accommodation. Except for the second night in the Grand Canyon, the other five nights were spent in Qiyu Homestay next to Enshi Passenger Station. Cross the road to enter the passenger center. Public transportation is convenient, and so is eating. The room rate for five nights is CNY 256. The accommodation fee in the Grand Canyon is more than twice as expensive as that around Enshi Railway Station and Passenger Station. ✌️ This trip to Enshi not only overcame the fear of climbing mountains but also overcame the fear of heights. I met many young and middle-aged people along the way, who were panting and some even had to sit on a sedan chair. The 61-year-old woman traveled alone for a few days, didn't feel tired, and didn't feel sore after the trip. How did I do it? ⭐ If you don't want your legs to hurt, try to walk downhill as little as possible. When going downhill, turn sideways, hold the railing for support, and slowly land on the forefoot from the toes to the heel. ⭐ If you don't want to feel tired, don't rush when going uphill. Since it is a trip, walk slowly, stop and go, and enjoy the scenery more, so you won't feel tired.

Enshi Grand Canyon (2 days and 1 night, 1000 per person)
Zhengzhou🚄Enshi I found that hiking is truly a refreshing and exhilarating experience. The muscle soreness, the mental relaxation, and the sight of vibrant greenery everywhere can make you forget all your worries. In short, this was a spontaneous trip, with tickets booked just 12 hours before departure. It was a weekend trip that didn't require taking any leave. 🚊Transportation Friday night: 23:59 Zhengzhou - 08:40 Enshi Sunday night: 19:13 Enshi - 04:00 Zhengzhou 🏠Accommodation There are many hotels and homestays around. The one we stayed in is not recommended; it cost 400 per night, the room was small and not soundproof. 📆Itinerary Day 1: Luyuanping 8:40🚄 Arrived at Enshi Station, contacted the pre-booked car driver (500 for a day), and drove to Luyuanping. Around 10 o'clock, we passed a tea garden, where we stopped to take some photos. At 10:40, we continued our journey. It started to ☔ on the way, and the rain got heavier as we went deeper into the mountains. We were worried about whether we could reach our destination smoothly. Fortunately, the rain gradually subsided, and we arrived at Luyuanping around noon. ⛰️Surrounded by high mountains, we took the world's longest inclined elevator to reach this last primitive village without road access. It felt like we had stumbled into a paradise, deeply captivated by the scenery here. There are various hiking trails and natural waterfalls, with the most notable being the Xuanlu Rift, formed 250 million years ago‼️. Its extraordinary beauty is a testament to the wonders of nature. 16:30 We left the scenic area, and the driver took us to the guesthouse. We had dinner at the guesthouse's restaurant, but the taste was very average and not recommended. Day 2: Enshi Grand Canyon We had breakfast at the guesthouse. To avoid the crowds, we arrived at the scenic area around 8 o'clock. ▲Enshi Grand Canyon has two main areas: Qixingzhai and Yunlong Rift. Qixingzhai is on the mountain and requires hiking, featuring cliffside walkways, peculiar rocks, and spectacular views of peak forests and sea of clouds. Yunlong Rift is at the foot of the mountain, relatively flat, showcasing canyon waterfalls and river rifts, and is also known as the "most beautiful scar on Earth." Since we had seen the Xuanlu Rift the previous day, we only visited Qixingzhai today, focusing on hiking. Itinerary reference: Visitor Center🔜Ground Cable Car🔜Qixingzhai🔜Uphill Cable Car🔜Yixiantian🔜Cliffside Walkway🔜Welcoming Pine🔜Yizhuxiang🔜Downhill Elevator🔜Visitor Center. This itinerary is suitable for those who are not in great physical condition, but it is relatively expensive. Those in good physical condition can choose to hike up the mountain. Since we only visited Qixingzhai today, we leisurely strolled until 3 PM before leaving. There were many food options on the mountain; the small potatoes and large sausages were delicious, but the cold noodles were average. At 15:30, we took the bus back to Enshi city, which took about 1.5 hours. We had dinner in the city and happily ended this trip. Trip Expenses💰: 🚕Car rental: 500 💌Luyuanping ticket: 480 (including elevator and sightseeing car) / 2 people 🏡Accommodation: 400 📧Enshi Grand Canyon ticket: 580 (including cable car and elevator) / 2 people Return bus: 50 / 2 people 🍚Food: 150 🌈Total 2160, 1080 per person

Enshi's Xianju, the most beautiful Luyuanping
🌟Highlights: Shenlu Sky Ladder, inclined at 45º, with a drop of 500 meters 👍Most recommended: Canglu Divine Waterfall Group Xuanlu Earth Rift ⏳Tour Time: Walking and stopping along the way, taking photos for five hours 🗓Itinerary: Enter the scenic area parking lot, don't stop, you can drive further down. The visitor center is below. There are two roads after entering the gate, the cliff plank road on the left, and the Shenlu Sky Ladder on the right, A one-way trip is 90, if you choose to go down, you need to buy a ticket at the visitor center. If going up, you can buy a ticket at the uphill station. The Shenlu Sky Ladder also requires a walk on the cliff plank road. After descending the plank road, you will pass through attractions such as Luyuan, Wangfu Bridge, Yunnü Cave, Chunyang Peak, etc., and then there will be a branch. One side is the Canglu Divine Waterfall Group with four levels of waterfalls. After viewing the waterfalls, you can choose to take the slide, with a ticket price of 20 yuan, or return the same way. Back at the branch, the other side is the Xuanlu Earth Rift. On the way back, there is a magic carpet, priced at 25, but it's actually not far. The exit is at Wangfu Bridge. Then return the same way to Luyuan, where you can choose to walk the plank road or take the uphill sky ladder. We relied on our legs for the entire journey, walking twenty thousand steps a day, and the final plank road was really tiring 📝Note tips: The waterfalls are beautiful, the earth rift is beautiful, both are worth seeing. You can take transportation, which is very physically demanding. Also, those with heart disease, high blood pressure, acrophobia, or those who are older and not physically strong are not recommended to come. Because whether you take the sky ladder or not, you have to walk the cliff plank road, and the sky ladder is also unbearable for those with acrophobia.

Everyone in my Moments is asking where this is
I've always wanted to visit Enshi, and I finally made it there! The scenery in Enshi is truly beautiful, even though the light rain adds a misty touch, the fog-enveloped Luyuanping feels like a fairyland. I suggest setting out in the morning, especially after rain; you might encounter the morning mist, which is incredibly beautiful. You can enjoy a leisurely walk with friends and complete the short circuit by noon to reach the inn.

Enshi is great, but I won't come again next time
That's impossible. After seeing Enshi in winter, I'm even more captivated by the thought of how green and beautiful it must be in spring and summer. It's no wonder that 'National Geographic' rated it as 'the most beautiful place in China.' The cliffs are stunningly perilous, the mountain streams crystal clear, and the caves vast and mysterious. On Day 3-4, I went to 1) Tenglong Cave and 2) Luyuanping. 1) Tenglong Cave was on the way because I planned to trek the ancient Qingjiang riverbed. I happened to have a ticket that allowed me to enter for FREE, saving the 150 yuan entrance fee. I visited with a 'since I'm here, I might as well' attitude, and it exceeded my expectations. I had forgotten to check the reviews, which were mixed, but as someone who loves trekking, I found it to be an interesting spot. There's a distance from the visitor center to the scenic area. The center will ask if you want to buy a ticket for the scenic area shuttle. If you're driving, you can totally drive in yourself. I chose to walk in and take the sightseeing car back (round trip 10 yuan). Inside the cave, it felt like an adventure of tomb raiding. The overall visit was less than two hours and fairly relaxed. 2) Luyuanping has cliffs and precipices, a high-altitude plank walkway, crevasses, and waterfalls. It's less crowded, and the area is quite large. I hiked down to the bottom of the mountain to the junction of the crevasse/waterfall. With limited time, I chose to explore the crevasse (the natural scenery is recommended), took the magic carpet up the mountain, and the elevator back to the top, which took about 2.5 hours in total. The three-day trip to Enshi ended with a self-drive of 701km. I recommend self-driving to tour Enshi because the attractions are quite scattered and far apart. You can start early at around 8 am and begin visiting the attractions before 11 am. Avoid the tour groups by traveling at off-peak times. Wait for the large groups to arrive after you've left, and you'll perfectly avoid the crowds.

Lu Yuanping
Lu Yuanping is located in Xintian Village, Banqiao Town, Enshi. This is the only ancient village in Enshi that is not accessible by road. Lu Yuanping is deeply trapped in the crevice of the canyon, surrounded by cliffs. It is said that during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, a pair of Pei brothers discovered a flat area with lush trees at the bottom of the valley while exploring the terrain for planting rice. A river flows in the middle, with hundreds of waterfalls hanging on the side. Later, they were led out of the predicament by mountain deer, so they moved here, multiplied and thrived. It was first called Lu Yinping, but because deer often visited people's courtyards, they named it Lu Yuanping. The legend about the divine deer adds more legendary color to this place!
