Foreword: This is my first time to write travel notes. Although I always think that I can write travel notes on the way or when I come back to record the pace of my youth, I forget it after I come back from every trip. Maybe the prosperous metropolis is easy to lose direction. But this time it's different. This time I'm determined to write a travel note. Although I won't write many gorgeous sentences, I will write the travel notes conscientiously. If there is something wrong, I hope you can point out that I will accept it with an open mind.

Autumn tour of Jinan, Qufu and Tai'an

It is said that autumn is especially suitable for mountain climbing. This time I have a holiday. If I have never traveled in autumn, I prefer to go to Mount Tai. By the way, I went to Jinan in autumn. It took me 8 days to go there and about 2000 yuan to travel. This is also a poor trip. Of course, the first choice of transportation is the train, because the train has a feeling of being on the road, That sense of vagrancy is something that airplanes and high-speed rail can't offer.

Day 1: Guangzhou -- Jinan

Starting from Guangzhou, the train arrived at Jinan at 20:20 p.m. on the 10th and 18:18 p.m. on the 11th. After leaving the station, you can walk to the right side of the railway station for 5-10 minutes to see the bus stop. Brt5, the north gate of Daming Lake (Aibu chain hotel). The hotel was ordered on Ctrip. At that time, you also saw that everyone's evaluation was good. It was very economical and affordable, mainly because the transportation was very convenient, It's only ten or twenty minutes to the railway station, and it's very convenient to go to other scenic spots. There's a lot of food nearby, and the price is reasonable. It's very close to Jinan east railway station, and it's about five minutes' walk.

The next day: Hongye Valley -- Jiefangge -- heihuquan -- Quancheng Square

Transportation: 10 minutes walk from the east gate of Daming Lake to the north gate, east gate of Daming Lake -- erqixincun station (No.36), erqixincun station -- hongyegu (No.65), erqixincun station -- heihuquan (No.36)

I've long wanted to see the red leaves in autumn. It's said that they are very beautiful. I read the travel strategy before I set out and said that the red leaves in the Red Leaf Valley in autumn are very beautiful. I set out by car early that morning. Because the strategy was not complete enough, I didn't know I had to go up by car when I got to Hongye valley. I wanted to go up on foot, but I didn't get there for a long time. Later, a kind sister gave me a part of the way.

The classic tourism route of Hongye Valley: entrance of gate -- Lily Garden -- gorgeous autumn lake -- Huanxiu road -- European style Valley -- lover's Valley -- Wanye tower -- Xingjiao Temple -- Tianqu garden -- Rose Garden -- cherry garden -- entrance of gate

Because it's autumn season, it's mainly red leaves. There are no lilies, tulips, roses... Even chrysanthemums. But the whole mountain is decorated with red leaves. Tulips in the valley of European customs have just planted their seeds. They can be planted 360 times on the Wanye pagoda ° View the whole valley from different heights and angles

At about 2 o'clock, I had a tour of the whole valley. Then I took the bus back to heihuquan station. As soon as I got off the bus, I could see "Jiefangge". Without admission, I could go in and visit it. Next to it is the way to heihuquan, which is not far away. In the afternoon, when you go to heihuquan, you can see the residents nearby coming to fetch water with big buckets and small buckets. Some people are holding buckets with ropes. Everyone is busy fetching water and pouring water into the buckets. Some people are waiting in line to fetch water with buckets at the prescribed water intake place... After playing in heihuquan, you can take a bus to the station and go to Quancheng Square, only 2 stops. The music fountain in the evening doesn't start until 20:30. You don't have to go so early. If you go early, you can go shopping there. The square at night is also very busy. There are shopping malls, people waiting to see music fountains, children learning pulley, people selling airplane models, people selling luminous things (fluorescent sticks)... The music fountains at night are also very beautiful. With the rhythm of music, the seemingly weak water suddenly dances, full of vitality, following the rhythm of music, Wave to your heart's content... At 21:00, the music fountain will be over, and there is a through train to the east gate of Daming Lake on the opposite side of the square. Of course, the day's tour will be over

You can see the memorial archway as soon as you take the bus to the front. Some of these parking cars are for carrying passengers up the mountain. There is still a long uphill road to the ticket office of Hongye valley. It's better to take the bus.

The third day: Jinan Qufu Jinan

Jinan Qufu (g63:07:26 -- 08:04) Qufu Jinan (g316:17:43 -- 18:36)

Tour route: Confucius Temple -- Confucius Mansion -- Confucius forest -- wumaci Street

At 7:00 in the morning, I will take the bus to Qufu, ready to have a good tour of "three holes". It's more than 30 minutes' drive from Jinan to Qufu. As soon as you get out of the high-speed railway station on the right hand side, there is a bus directly to the Confucius Temple, which is very convenient. It was only a few minutes after we got off the bus at kongmiao station, when we met the big sister of the post-80s generation. We all came from Jinan to play "three Confucius". Soon we knew that we had the same place of departure, the same route, the same destination and the same shuttle bus. It happened that we were all one person, So we started our one-day self portrait tour ~ ~ ~ we went to the Confucius Temple first, and then to the Confucius Mansion. These two places are very close. We can walk to the Confucius Mansion from the exit of the Confucius Temple, which is very close. Kongfu can go to Konglin by rickshaw. It's only 5 yuan for two people, and they are all licensed drivers. Moreover, the rickshaw puller is not bad. We asked him which shop has better pancakes. He patiently recommended them to us. It turns out that they are really good. Rickshaw pullers will take you to the entrance of Konglin. There is still a short way to go. Rickshaws are not allowed in, but there are many shops selling food, bamboo slips, souvenirs... We simply solved the problem of lunch there. In Konglin, we took the sightseeing bus for a brief tour, and also listened to the guide of the same sightseeing bus for a brief introduction. In this way, we simply visited "three holes". We took a rickshaw to return to wumaci street, which is very close to the bus stop we went back to. It's another shopping street, so we strolled there... When we got there, we took the bus back to Jinan, ending the day's journey

Day 4: Daming Lake -- underwater world -- qushuiting Street -- Furong Street -- Baotu Spring -- Wulongtan

This day's journey is almost on foot. Opposite the hotel is the old district of Daming Lake. Just walk across the road for a few minutes. In the morning, you can see the old people doing morning exercises. Daming Lake, you must naturally think of crape myrtle's "emperor, do you still remember the summer rain lotus on the Bank of Daming Lake?" it's a pity that it's not the right time to go. There is a sense of desolation in the maintenance and construction of that place. In the old district of Daming Lake, there are tea houses, underwater world, amusement park... Underwater world is to watch sea lion performance, water ballet and so on. Out of the Hunan gate of Daming is the old district of Jinan. There is a street across the road, qushuiting street. In Jinan, it is still a special street with some snacks, souvenirs and tea houses. If you continue to walk in, you will find xigeng street, Wangfu pool. After you walk out of the alley, you will find Furong street, a famous snack street. Because it's noon time, there are not many people on the street. You can see that there are almost all the snack bars there. There are several noodle shops with special features, but there are many people waiting in line, and there are only a few fried buns, A lot of people are queuing up to buy. By the way, I solved the problem of lunch in Furong street. It's enough to have a taste of those snacks. Furong street is not far from Baotu Spring. It's only ten to twenty minutes' walk. In the afternoon, not many people went to Baotu Spring. They probably strolled around the garden and saw the three long-awaited springs, "three big springs, rising from the bottom of the pool, two or three feet high on the surface"... The spring water there is very clear, and the fish at the bottom of the pool can be seen clearly. Baotu Spring is not far from Wulongtan. You can walk for more than ten minutes. At the entrance of Wulongtan, there are five dragons standing there spraying water. The scenic spots include the former site of Shandong provincial leading organ, the former site of qinqiong's house, the former site of guliting and Wuzhongqi's calligraphy and seal cutting works. When you enter the pavilion, you can enjoy the beauty of Longtan. The water is crystal clear. All kinds of goldfish are dotted in the pool. When you throw fish materials down, the large group of goldfish immediately come to "compete" and the colorful fish drop into the clear lake water

Day 5: Shandong Provincial Museum -- Hongjialou -- Tai'an

Transportation: brt5 direct

Daming Lake East Gate station is about 30 minutes away from the Provincial Museum. There is an art museum next to the Provincial Museum. Due to the travel problem, I only went to the Provincial Museum. The provincial museum can definitely be called high-end, grand and elegant. The hall is even more luxurious and magnificent... The museum is divided into four floors, including Xia Shang Zhou Culture Museum, Shandong archaeological achievements, specimen world... This museum is not only tall, but also very characteristic. You can spend half a day to have a good look, and you can also go to the art museum next to the museum, From the appearance, it looks very tall. Because of the time problem, I didn't go to the art museum. Instead, I went to Hongjialou. A few stops back from the provincial museum is Hongjialou. It is a double tower Gothic building, which was built in 1901 and completed in 1905 (Hongjialou Catholic Church is also called 1904). It is one of the three famous Catholic churches in China. A building with unique design, whether from the roof of the building, or from the building on both sides of the wall, we can see its unique beauty. After visiting Hong's house, I take the bus back to the hotel to take my luggage to the railway station and go to the next station, Tai'an. The train only takes an hour to arrive, and another bus can go to Hongmen. At that time, it was Baidu bus. It was said that No.1 Middle School of the city got off to go near the hotel, and then took the bus around the city. It took more than an hour to get there. If I got off at Hongmen at that time, I could save more than half of the time. Then I asked a elder sister for directions. Maybe Mandarin was not standard, and she pointed out the wrong place to me, Later, I asked the traffic police to find the right way to the hotel. When I got to the hotel, it was more than eight o'clock and I was hungry... After checking in, I put down my luggage and went out to look for food. The area near the hotel was about to be demolished, and there was nothing to eat. I had to walk more than 20 minutes to find something to eat. By the way, I went to the supermarket opposite to buy something to eat and prepare for tomorrow's mountain climbing, Then I went back to the hotel to wash and sleep, and the day passed like this

Day 6: Mount Tai, grand ceremony

The classic route up the mountain: daizongfang Guandi temple yitianmen Confucius' boarding place Hongmen Palace wanxianlou monument to revolutionary martyrs boundless wind and moon carved stone Sanguan temple Doumu palace Yuanjun temple jingshiyu Fengan monument Bodong hutiange huimaling Zhongtianmen yunbu bridge Wudafu pine wangrensong Chaoyang cave Shibapan shengxianfang Nantianmen

The classic downhill route: tianzhufeng houshiwu route, with beautiful peaks and various pines and rocks, is not inferior to Zhangjiajie in natural beauty. It is the best route for adventure and self-help tours. However, compared with the other three roads in Taishan, the tourist service facilities along the way are slightly incomplete, and there are few shops on the way, so they need to provide their own food and drinking water. Classics on the way: tianzhushengjingfang, xihequan, sanzhefu waterfall, tianzhufeng, wangtianmen, yunnuquanshi, Yuanjun temple in houshiwu, beitianmen, zhangrenfeng, jizusong, dongxiyaoguanding, etc.

Day 7: Dai Temple

As I climbed Mount Tai the day before, it's normal for me who don't like sports. I had a rest in the hotel for a long time. At noon, I packed my bags and returned the hotel. Then I went to have lunch and bought a ticket for daimiao. I went in to spend the afternoon's leisure time. The scenic spots are: daimiaohang, Zhengyangmen, tanghuaiyuan, Tianfu hall Copper Pavilion, iron tower, city wall, etc. After walking around the garden, I went to the so-called city wall and started to go back to the hotel to take my luggage to the railway station. The train returned to Guangzhou at 18:13 p.m. On the train, they met a post-80s elder sister who went to Guangzhou on business. They chatted about the food, drink and entertainment, the climate in Guangzhou, what they saw and heard about Mount Tai, and the grand ceremony of Fengchan (later, the elder sister went to see Fengchan after going back on business).

Day 8: Mount Tai - Guangzhou

The time of the day was spent on the train. Later, because the train was late, it arrived at the railway station at about 17:00. After 22.5 hours, it finally returned to the familiar place. The hot weather, the blocked roads, the heavy traffic and so on ended the 8-day journey.
