Take advantage of the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, take a head out to relax; I just bought a new car and tried to go around; Living in Shanghai as a child, we have never been to Chongming Island, the "third largest island in China", so the idea of taking our parents on a two-day self driving tour naturally came into being.

In order to save trouble, I ordered a free bag on the donkey mother. I left on June 9 and stayed for one night. I returned on the first day of the long holiday on June 10. It also included two tickets for the resort's entertainment facilities and two tickets for Dongping Forest Park, 450 yuan for two people. I ordered two copies. The price performance is still very high.

Transportation:

Since the opening of the Yangtze River Tunnel and bridge from Shanghai to Chongming, it is more convenient to drive to Chongming by yourself. Xiangyin Road Tunnel - Wuzhou Avenue - Ring Expressway - Shanghai Shaanxi Expressway (Yangtze River Tunnel Bridge) - Chongming Island Chenhai highway, fast and convenient, but the toll still has to be paid, 50 yuan per way.

However, Chongming Island is really big. It's estimated that it will take an hour to drive from the west to the East, so you should choose a good destination for sightseeing, otherwise you will spend a lot of time on traffic.

get accommodation:

In line with the purpose of good environment, I chose YIQINYUAN resort, which is said to be the best resort on the island. It has to be said that the environment of the resort is really good. It's just like a small forest park. Even if you don't go anywhere, it's very comfortable to stroll in the resort. Because of the price limit, we live in the forest landscape house of Building 5; It's not as old as it's said on the Internet. The facilities in the room are OK, and the surrounding environment is also good. However, the Internet said that the better environment is building 7, lake view room; Or if you have a forest cabin, the price will be higher. You can try it again next time.

Play:

Chongming Island is big, and there are many places to visit, such as Dongtan wetland and Yingdong village yujiale in the East, Dongping National Forest Park and Genbao football base in the middle, Xisha wetland and Mingzhu Lake in the west, and countless farmhouses. It's impossible to visit all of them in two days, and the scenic spots are almost the same. You can choose one or two. So at that time, we chose to have a leisurely time in the resort, and then we went to Xisha wetland (free) and Dongping National Forest Park where tickets were sent. We still had plenty of time.

Day1 June 9 Sunday light rain

Shanghai downtown Chongming Island Resort Xisha wetland mutton restaurant dinner

The weather is not so beautiful, with sporadic light rain, but it does not hinder our good mood of travel. As we lived in Minhang and were going to Yangpu to meet our parents, we also went to the Xiangyin Road Tunnel on the way. All the way was smooth, chatting and eating snacks in the car, and soon we drove to the island; In fact, when you get to Chongming Island, you will find that the environment has changed. Trees are planted on both sides of the road. There is green everywhere. Even the air has become fresh.

It was almost half past twelve when we arrived at the resort because we started late. When we drove into the resort, we also sighed, what a big resort, good environment! Go to the general room department to ask for the information, and drive to the No. 5 building where we live to check in. There is a parking lot next to the building, which is very convenient. I went to the room to clean up and asked the front desk to help me call a free battery car. Because the resort is too big, it takes time to walk from one end to the other. The resort arranged a free battery car, which is a good service.

The battery car drove to the restaurant center of the resort. Because it was late and I was a little hungry, I simply had a meal in the restaurant of the resort, and the evaluation of the restaurant was also good. The four people ordered some Chongming special dishes, and they were satisfied with the food. The key is that they had a meal by the lake. They were in a good mood while enjoying the scenery.

After lunch just walk, slowly walk back to building 5, just enjoy the scenery of the resort, really not built! There are tall Chinese fir trees everywhere, as if it were a natural oxygen bar, we can breathe heartily!

We went back to our room, took some things and drove to Xisha wetland. Following the guidance of the navigator, we drove all the way. It was not too close. After driving for nearly 40 minutes, we walked along many paths. At one time, we thought we were going the wrong way. It's nearly 4 o'clock in Xisha wetland. Fortunately, it doesn't close. The parking lot charges 10 yuan. In fact, you don't have to pay for parking on the nearby path.

Asked when the park closed, the staff at the gate said that as long as you go in before the closing time, it doesn't matter, you can come out at any time. I thought that all the people had gone out, but I didn't expect that when I walked inside, I met many tourists from time to time. Originally, we wanted to walk around in a small circle, because it rained a little, but we were not willing to, so we accidentally spared a big circle.

The roads in Xisha wetland are very easy to walk. They are all wooden plank roads. On both sides, there are reeds floating in the wind. It's very pleasant to watch. If you look carefully, there is a wetland under the reed marsh. Many small holes are the places where little crabs come and go! At first, my husband took a pole to catch crabs, but the crabs ignored him. Later, when I saw that many people were catching crabs, I found that they were using special tools. When I put them on the claws, the crabs took the bait. It's so simple! So we just picked up a pole on the road, and we also picked up the crabs, but we didn't bring any other tools, so the crabs were released after looking at them.

It's 5:30 when I get out of the park. There's a farmer's market nearby. I went to have a look at some stalls and tasted the Chongming cake. It tastes good. It's waxy but not sweet. I bought some pieces to eat at home. Then we have to consider where to have dinner. Chongming Island's mutton is also very famous. We searched a Huang bingqiao mutton restaurant and drove there. There were not many tourists. We ordered braised mutton, hairy crab New Year cake, native chicken soup and other dishes. The mutton and hairy crab New Year cake were very delicious! However, the local chicken soup was really tasteless, and no one ate it.

I went back to the resort after I had enough to eat and drink. I just gave two tickets for entertainment in the resort. In the evening, I used a chess and card room. It was fun for four people to play automatic mahjong together.

Day2 June 10 Monday light rain clear

Fishing in holiday village - Dongping National Forest Park - farmhouse lunch in Qianwei village - return to downtown Shanghai

When you wake up naturally, you can take a battery car to the catering center for free breakfast. There are many kinds of breakfast here. After you are satisfied, you use another entertainment coupon to replace the fishing bucket, fish food and fishing rod (we also bring our own fishing rod) to go fishing by the lake. Let alone, there are many people fishing.

Do all the preparatory work, throw down the fishing rod, the fish didn't bite, the fish food disappeared, my husband and I kept repeating the actions of putting the fish food, throwing dry, and the fish food being eaten, while my mother helped us rub the fish food; Next to a family for a while a fish, for a while a fish on the hook, and soon caught five fish! And we didn't catch one! The gap! Later, my husband finally worked hard to catch the only fish. Later, we released him!

After fishing, I walk back to my room. It's about 12 o'clock when I go back to my room to clean up. I just check out and drive to Dongping National Forest Park. In fact, it's not far away. It's just across the road from the resort. The parking lot costs 10 yuan. Send tickets to the special window to get, the original price tickets to 70 yuan a ah! If we don't, we won't come.

Entering the park, there are not many people. One person rents a bicycle and rides it slowly. It costs 10 yuan an hour, which is almost an hour. After a long ride around the forest park, I continue to enjoy the lush trees and breathe the fresh air. It's really nice to be in the nature! On the way through the barbecue area, there are a lot of barbecuers; I found a more comfortable place, ate my snacks and rode back to the gate for just one hour. At this time, there were more tourists. It seems that the army has arrived and we just left.

It's time for dinner again. Where to eat? I still read the comments. The comments on farmhouse music in Qianwei village are relatively high, so I drove to Qianwei village again. I really feel very avant-garde! Every family is a Happy Farmhouse! It's really hard to find the one mentioned on the Internet. When you enter the village, someone will charge you 10 yuan for parking, and you won't care about it. Ordered a few recommended dishes, all very fresh and delicious! In particular, there is a cauliflower dry roast meat, the taste is very unique! And their home's sliced chicken and salted river shrimp are also delicious, because they are super fresh（ The picture is a bit blurred)

When we came out of the village with enough food, the weather was gradually clearing up, and we were about to leave. Along the Chenhai highway all the way to the Yangtze River Tunnel Bridge, blue sky and white clouds, all the way smooth, very comfortable. The two-day itinerary is relatively loose. It's time to eat, play, and breathe enough fresh air. Happiness is the most important thing! It seems that Chongming Island is really a good place for leisure and vacation!

It's over.
