My wife and I are both 73, we have been driving since retirement, for more than ten years, we have almost traveled all over the mountains and rivers of the motherland, and we have driven more than 30 countries, driving 250,000 kilometers, which can be regarded as an old self-driving.
Due to being at home for too long due to the epidemic, my wife and I revisited Jianshui, Maitreya, and Guizhou in Yunnan before May Day.
After running for more than a month, the distance is nearly 9,000 kilometers, and I have experienced a lot along the way, mainly three points
First, there are more and more shuttle cars, ropeways, and elevators in scenic spots, and the price is getting more and more expensive. Because we are old, some scenic spots have come, some scenic spots originally did not have a regional car, this time found also added a regional car, the parking lot was originally very close to the scenic gate, now you move far away, to the scenic gate can only take the regional car, discerning people know at a glance, this is the scenic area to increase income set up, if you want to visit the scenic spot, you have to obediently pay money, a scenic area shuttle car, elevator fee, ropeway fee, it will cost more than 700 yuan. We played for more than a month, just the shuttle car, elevator fee, ropeway fee, two people spent more than 3,000 yuan.
Second, not all scenic spots are free for 70-year-olds. The scenic spot is free of charge for 70-year-olds, reflecting the country's care for the elderly. But some scenic spots, especially privately contracted scenic spots, 70-year-old people are not free of tickets, all the way down, privately contracted scenic spots are more than before, a province a privately contracted scenic spot tips, 80-year-old people free tickets, try to ask, how many 80-year-old people can still travel everywhere? We go this way, not to mention 80-year-olds traveling, that is, people over 70 years old travel very little. make
For the tourism industry, whether public or private, there should be a unified fee policy.
Third, many scenic spots do not allow drones to fly.
We took the drone with us on this trip, and originally wanted to shoot some scenery films. But the reality is different from what we think. There are obvious hints at the door of many scenic spots. It is normal for "scenic areas to ban drones" and not allow drones to fly for many reasons. I just didn't expect the density to be so large. On the road, I met two riders, they were complaining, and as soon as they took out the drone at the scenic spot, they were stopped by the security guards. How did I take out my drone and bring it back intact. It seems that you must be fully mentally prepared with a drone on the road, and the road to spend a lot of money to buy a drone to shoot the scenery is getting narrower and narrower?
