重庆很好 但是不会再来了\n\n查看原文\n\n 1898 个赞\n\n---\n\n## 内容节选\n\n- 洪崖洞夜景确实震撼，但人挤人差点被「火锅调料」！ \n \n （建议避开节假日，工作日傍晚拍照最佳）\n\n- 导航失灵警告️ \n 重庆8D魔幻地形实名认证！跟着导航走错三次立交桥...\n\n- 火锅初体验️ \n 微辣锅底让本广东人辣到灵魂出窍！ \n 推荐菜：鲜鸭血、屠场毛肚 \n 避雷点：不要轻易尝试干油碟

Hello everyone! I've just returned from Chongqing and there are a few things I need to get off my chest! The city itself is quite cool, but some of my experiences... Ugh, they are difficult to describe. I probably won't go back again anytime soon. Here are some tips for my friends who are planning to visit!\n\n* About the taxi drivers - I really want to voice this frustration!\n * Most of the drivers are a bit... umm, unfriendly. They either push various bus tickets or ferry tickets onto you, or express dissatisfaction with your destination?\n * On my first day, I told a driver to take me to Zazong Street (the famous landmark in the center of Chongqing). He exclaimed, "That place is so outlandish!" with an air of superiority. I was dumbfounded: What does it have anything to do with him? After all, tourists will naturally want to see famous places.\n * ️ Note: Get mentally prepared before entering a taxi, as drivers might try to sell tourist packages; politely decline if you don't need them.\n\n* The rampant chaos in tourism severely undermined my experience!\n * Hongyadong (the old and famous street which lights up the night), that is overcrowded with tourists, is a prime example of such chaos - it is extremely hard to see how the actual scenery could be compromised like this.\n * At every step along the way, someone is pushing bus tickets onto you, while others try selling ferry tickets; there are continuous attempts by strangers to capture your attention for taking pictures with them. With so many people already packed into Hongyadong, and the added hucksters, it makes it impossible to enjoy a leisurely stroll unhindered.\n * ️ Warning: In popular tourist spots such as Hongyadong, expect to be hassled for promotions. Decline politely and keep a close eye on personal belongings.\n\n* Chongqing's mountainous terrain, though a feature, is headache-inducing too!\n * Chongqing, the "Mountain City," has numerous steep roads which are indeed fascinating. But after a strenuous day out, facing an endless slope can make you feel defeated!\n * Unless locals show you small sidepaths or you've done an exhaustive online research, you may find it better to take a cab. Though starting fare is just 10 RMB, at times you could almost walk up the hill within a kilometer. Without thorough planning, you may end up spending money for no good reason.\n * Travel Suggestion: Chongqing's terrain is complex, and not always navigated accurately by GPS.\n * Read many travel guides, knowing the challenges of walking distances between sites.\n * Prepare for taxis and ask about approximate distances and fares to avoid being rerouted.\n\n* Getting网约车 is difficult; commuting in the evening is more troublesome!\n * Using Didi (a popular taxi app in China) can be problematic, especially since there are two separate systems for taxis and ride-hailing vehicles.\n * Unknown to me, around 10 PM, many taxis seem to stop working. On several days, we had to drag ourselves, dead tired, back to our hotel.\n * ️ Notice: Taxiing out can be difficult during the late hours of the night in Chongqing, particularly away from the central city areas. Plan your return transportation ahead, or find a hotel in a connected region.\n\n* Some so-called "trending must-see spots", are simply absurd!\n * I suspect some places were created merely to cater to trending topics, which locals don't consider to be notable.\n * For instance, Liuzi Mountain light rail passing through a building, and Guanyinqiao's “I am in Chongqing” big display screen, not exaggerating, these are places where snapping a photo is all you do there. Such places feel created just to fulfill the need of photography.\n * Travel Suggestion: Approach trendy attractions with a calm mindset; some might only suit short-term photo-taking打卡 visits.\n\n* Dialect and possible "tourist attitude"\n * Locals, young and old, mostly speak Chongqing dialect (different from Mandarin, it sounds like Sichuanese). We non-locals who speak Mandarin might easily stand out.\n * Apart from sometimes not understanding them clearly, I felt more likely to be treated differently or scammed. Hence, one needs to be alert!\n * ！！！Important Warning！！！\n * Communication Tips: Communication gaps exist between Chongqing dialect and Mandarin. Although many youths also understand Mandarin, slowing down your speech may help better understanding.\n * Anti-Scam Awareness: With unfamiliar accents due to being an outsider, being cautious against possible scams and frauds becomes crucial, especially while shopping in small stores or hailing taxis where some unscrupulous vendors/drivers might cheat travelers.\n\nIn summary, Chongqing has its own charm and has been well-developed. Yet, if one desires a completely relaxed and happy journey, it could be challenging as per my personal experience. This shared information is just a reference for anyone wishing to know more about this wonderful city.

内蒙游：一场身心俱疲的“草原冒险”

最近刚结束了一趟为期6天的内蒙之旅（8月12日至8月17日），带着五大一小的家庭组合，包了一辆车加司机全程陪同游玩，每天车费1500元，餐食、门票和住宿费用需要自理。

草原风光虽美，但……

草原的风景确实令人叹为观止，尤其是那壮丽的日落景色，让人不禁驻足欣赏。然而，这趟旅程的体验却远没有想象中那么美好。我们去的那几天天气异常炎热，住在蒙古包里简直是一种煎熬——闷热到几乎无法入睡。

除了大草原之外，真的很难找到其他让我心动的地方。至于传说中的羊肉美味，我只能说：可能我的味蕾和别人不一样吧！总之，并没有感受到所谓的“舌尖上的草原”。

高物价与低性价比

住宿的价格也让我感到十分失望。一晚一千多元的房间，不仅不值这个价，连早餐都做得敷衍了事。对于这样高昂的花费，我真的觉得有点得不偿失。

路途遥远且颠簸

整个旅程中，大部分时间都在赶路上。由于景点之间的距离较远，加上路况不佳，车辆行驶过程中非常颠簸，让人疲惫不堪。更糟糕的是，我还因为高温中暑，再加上肠胃炎发作，整个人的状态差到了极点。

总结：再也不想去！

经过这次旅行，我对内蒙的印象从期待变成了抗拒。回家后的两天休养才让我逐渐恢复过来。如果有人问我还会不会再考虑去内蒙旅游，我的答案一定是：Never!

希望我的分享能给计划前往内蒙的朋友一些参考，提前做好心理准备，避免踩雷。
