Is there a self-driving travel guide in Shanxi?
65438+1October 3 1 At 9 am, my car and jj's car met at Hayes Bridge. About twenty minutes later, I arrived at Dujiakan toll station and officially embarked on a journey to Shanxi. I walked through Beijing-Shijiazhuang Expressway a long time ago. It seemed that the road had just been repaired and the quality was very good. It feels even worse to walk now. There are many patches on the road, but generally speaking, it is ok. It takes about 40 kilometers to drive out, probably from Beijing. I paid the money once. 15 yuan. Jj's car is in front, I'll follow. Maybe not often. Jj's speed has been kept at around 100 km. Considering that my car is also full and I am not crazy, I have been following. After a short rest at the Xu Shui rest stop, the speed was increased to 1 10 km, and there was no trouble all the way, and the walkie-talkie was useless, so I had to make a joke from time to time to add some fun to the journey. /kloc-arrive at Shijiazhuang service station around 0/o'clock and have lunch. Seven people served five dishes, 1 soup, 10 1 yuan. The food tastes just so-so, but it's ok as a kind of hunger, except that the rice tastes terrible. I think these rice may have been stored for several years and it smells stale. There is half oil left in the tank. Seeing that this gas station is not small, I simply filled it up. Gasoline in Hebei is just cheaper than that in Beijing, 3.03 yuan/liter, 9 points cheaper. I went to Shijiazhuang toll station to pay 60 yuan, but I didn't go into the city. I went on as instructed, and soon I passed Taijiu Expressway, and then I paid 25 yuan. I don't know which section I paid. After entering the mountainous area, the road behind becomes winding and the speed is not too fast. There are fewer and fewer cars on the road, but Beijing brand cars still account for the majority. At night, there are almost no service stations on the roadside, only barren hills and residual snow can be seen. Occasionally I pass by one or two villages, all of which are caves or broken houses. The overall color is grayish yellow. Without some snow, I'm afraid there will be a more desolate and barren feeling. The snow on the roadside is getting darker and darker. It seems that Shanxi really lives up to its reputation and is a land of coal production. I arrived in Taiyuan around four o'clock, paid 50 yuan, and still didn't enter the city. I transferred to Dayun Expressway (Datong to Yuncheng) and heard an exciting news. The expressway has been repaired to Pingyao, so there is no need to get off the expressway and take another section of national highway. However, the road signs of the Universiade Expressway are not clear, and we are encouraged by the good news in running all the way. As a result, I arrived at Wenshui and felt that I was going the wrong way. When we asked at the toll booth, people said it was Taifen Expressway. You have walked more than 30 kilometers to Fenyang. This is the third Beijing bus going the wrong way today, so we have to turn around. It's already 4: 30. It's getting late. I can't help feeling anxious. I hope I won't go the wrong way again and arrive in Pingyao before dark. After more than 20 minutes, I turned back to the Universiade Expressway from Qixian exit, and only then did I find the correct road sign for 50 kilometers to Pingyao. It's getting dark and there are fewer cars on the road. Also, who will run on the road on the evening of the 30th? We drove for half an hour and hardly saw a car (including the one coming from the opposite side). Finally, at about 5: 40, I got off the expressway at Pingyao exit and paid 35 yuan. It's about 600 kilometers from Beijing to Pingyao. The hotel we booked in Pingyao is on Ming and Qing Street in Pingyao ancient city. When I arrived, I called the hotel and asked them to send someone out of town to pick it up. They acted quickly and soon someone came. Because Pingyao couldn't get into the car at 8:00- 17:00, and there was no place to park next to the hotel, after we put our luggage down, the hotel people took us to the yard of a cinema, which was about 5 minutes away from the hotel. The hotel was found online, called Yunjincheng. This is a very good local hotel. It was there that CCTV interviewed Pingyao. We booked four rooms (standard rooms). At the time of booking, it was 150 yuan each. When we arrived, we talked with them for a long time and finally decided it was 1 10 yuan. This is the most distinctive hotel I have ever stayed in. This is a traditional courtyard in Shanxi, with pavilions, carved beams and painted columns. Black painted wooden doors and columns look old, but they are not worn out. The yard is clean, red lanterns are hung high in the yard, couplets are posted on the doors, and red firecrackers are hung, which is a New Year atmosphere. At night, every family will put a small square red double happiness lantern on the windowsill. The four rooms we live in are divided into two compartments, each compartment has a door, and the door is divided into two rooms. Pushing open the door, I face a square table with two plush chairs on both sides. There are two big orchid porcelain pots and two pots of flowers on the table. There is a room on the left and right, one with a big kang (I think it can sleep at least five people, so it is not burning because of the heating in the room), and the other with two single beds. Every room has TV, hot water and heating. There are some calligraphy works and some yellow figures with petty bourgeoisie that look like 1930s style on the wall. The New Year's Eve dinner was eaten in Tianyuan Kui, because this shop is very famous on the Internet. The style of this shop is similar to that of the one we live in, but to be honest, from the outside of the yard, I don't think it is as good as Yunjincheng. I didn't go into the house, but I guess it's about the same. The food is average and expensive, and the amount of food is very small, about half to two-thirds of that in Beijing. Of course, I still bargain with them as suggested by netizens, but it may be the peak season during the Chinese New Year, and I didn't cut much, only 10% off. This New Year's Eve dinner took 150 yuan. Later, we found that the price of vegetables in Yuan Kui was much higher than that in Yunjin, Cheng Gui, where we lived. For example, a plate of oat noodle is rolled in Tianyuan Kuiyao 15 yuan, while Yunjincheng only needs 5 yuan. So the next few meals in Pingyao were all eaten in Yunjincheng. In the next few meals, we also tried various local snacks in a planned way, such as bald bowls, rubbing fish, grilled bamboo sticks, cat ears, oat noodle rolls and so on. But if you eat too much, you will find that although it is delicious, you can make noodles into different shapes, or cook, fry, steam, and then eat with seasonings, which is similar. The tour of Pingyao ancient city is a pass system. 85 yuan can visit 16 scenic spots per person. Among them, elderly people over 70 can buy half a ticket, students (including college students) can buy half a ticket, soldiers can get free tickets, and children don't need tickets. In this way, our seven adult 1 child travel teams only need to buy three full tickets and two half tickets, which really saves a lot of money. The ancient city is not big, so you can usually walk there. If it is a little far from the ancient city wall, you can rent an electric car. The price can be reduced, and it must be reduced sharply. Locals know that most of the people who come here are Beijingers, and the prices are particularly high. For example, the first time we rented an electric car to go to the Chenghuang Temple, he offered 20 yuan, and finally the deal was made in 6 yuan. Not much to say about the scenic spots in the city. The introduction of these scenic spots on the Internet can be described as endless, but I personally have a better impression of Xianya, Richangsheng, Chenghuang Temple, Tongxing Palace and so on.
