Wulingyuan to Fenghuang (Phoenix Ancient Town), China 凤凰古城

Visit China's hidden gem, Fenghuang, also known as Phoenix Ancient Town, on an unforgettable adventure. This charming town in central China oozes history through its cobblestone streets and leaves centuries of history on every corner. Reaching Fenghuang from central Hunan province is an experience due to the scarce bus timetable and lack of direct trains and a newly opened expressway.

The local ticketing system makes it difficult for foreigners to get on the early bus, setting the stage for a journey full of uncertainty but authentic encounters. This voyage reminds us of the joys of off-the-beaten-path travel, when the journey becomes part of the story.

Due to China's rich culinary legacy, breakfast in China has introduced me to dishes that rival bacon and eggs. It's the unexpected moments that define this voyage, like seeing a fellow traveler's misfortune or stretching one's legs at a rest stop that offers luxury amidst the journey's discomforts.

As Fenghuang approaches, anticipation rises, culminating in an arrival that takes longer than planned but promises an afternoon of relaxation and discovery. The decision to visit Chongqing or Shanghai looms, but Fenghuang's charms preempt Disneyland.

My accommodations beside the River give a simple yet attractive perspective of the historic town, a prelude to the trip ahead. Charm of the guesthouse and promise of adventure in Fenghuang outweigh little inconveniences like the unexpected power outage.

As dusk sets and I search the town's tempting streets for dinner, Fenghuang's splendor emerges, showing a town where time stands still and every turn reveals a new historical wonder.
