鳳凰古城

Bought the night cruise for my elderly mum and auntie instead of the package combo as I thought the entrance fee for seniors above 70 is free for the other attractions. But it is only free for seniors who are China citizens. Just managed to catch the night cruise as they just reopened due to the upstream dam releasing water 1 day ago. The cruise is just 20 to 25 min long but it offers a chance to capture the night view from some nice angles which you can't captured from land.

The insides of the visits are nothing exceptional in my opinion but I really enjoyed the boat tour it is short and slow paced but you het a nice smell of the water. I also enjoyed the art museum.

The attractions are all within walking distance and there is no roads for car to travel in the walking streets. Some attractions are very small and not worth visiting. The museum and wanshou gong are the better ones. The night view for the river cruise is the most worthy attraction and we managed to just catch it as it was closed from previous day due to high water level from the upstream dam releasing water.

The place is beautiful with a lot of heritage sites to appreciate but people are not very friendly and patient, especially owners of eateries. The six-scenic spots tickets are not worth it. Only a few attractions are worth it such as the museum and river cruising. You can get as much fun by touring free sites.

This was a great way to pack a lot of the highlights in, within a short period of time. The only thing that could make this better would be a walking tour guide / order to complete the inclusions in to save time, however I would not hesitate to purchase this again and I highly recommend this.
