    Highlights: Fenghuang Ancient Town gained fame after author Shen Cong Wen's famous piece "Border Town". The town was built during the reign of Emperor Kangxi during the Qing Dynasty. The residents living there now are mainly from the Miao and Tujia ethnic minority. Ranking as the ancient town in China, Fenghuang Ancient Town is a guidebook for people to know the past life in the pre-modernization period. Wooden houses and stone roads are the typical scenes here. The scenery after rain or in the misty morning is like a traditional chinese painting. When the town lights up at night, it feels like you are immersed in a fairyland. It is recommended to stay for a night to fully enjoy this town.

    "It is worth experiencing. The environment in the car is better. It is not that there are not many passengers on the holiday, and the ride is more comfortable. The scenery along the way is good. It is best to take it at night and look better. Range Rover Station is the best-looking Internet celebrity site."

    "The scenic spot is generally ornamental. The tickets booked on Trip.com are 98 yuan as the tickets at the gate of the scenic spot. In addition to looking at the stone or the stone, there is no Songtao Qianlong Cave and Tongren Jiulong Cave to see the head, and the tickets are expensive. However, the traffic is still very convenient. It will be there for a while after getting off the highway, very close to the high-speed rail station in the ancient city of Phoenix."
