How to get there:
Bus: During the peak season, there are green minibuses that can reach all the main attractions in the scenic area ("Erlings and One Dragon"). They can be used when there are more than 10 people. The price is very cheap. From the eastern end of the 104 National Road, Yandang Town (Baixi) intersection To Dalongqiu in the far west, it only costs 6.5 yuan.
Taxi: If there are few tourists during the off-season, the buses in the scenic area will not operate according to the "fare schedule". So buses have evolved into taxis, and you can only charter a taxi at this time. However, 80-100 yuan can cover a car for an afternoon (can be reduced to 60 yuan per person). It costs at least 200 yuan to cover a whole day. As long as you relax a little, one afternoon is enough for you to enjoy "Two Spirits and One Dragon".
