Tickets and booking
Admission is paid at the site: 20 RMB in the off season and 30 RMB in peak season, charged daily year-round. The data pack flags these figures as reference only, with the scenic area’s same-day posted price governing, so treat 20-30 RMB as the expected range rather than a fixed quote. No online-booking channel is documented in the pack; the reliable move is to pay at the gate, or call the scenic area at 0875-5851399 to confirm the current rate before setting out.
Entrance and routes
The sight is a single village POI: Jiangdong Ancient Ginkgo Village, in Gudong Town, Tengchong City, Baoshan, Yunnan. Access runs on two seasonal windows: the village is open around the clock from April 1 to August 31, then on fixed hours of 08:00-18:30 from September 1 through March 31, seven days a week in both periods. The pack names no separate gates or internal routes, so plan on a self-guided visit once inside; in the September-March period, arriving outside 08:00-18:30 means the site is closed.
Photo spots
The pack lists no named viewpoints or photo platforms; the subject is the village itself, an ancient ginkgo settlement as the name states. Work within the posted hours: from September 1 to March 31 the site closes at 18:30, which bounds any late-afternoon shooting, while the April-August all-day opening leaves timing fully open. Since no specific tree, courtyard, or lookout is documented, treat the ginkgo trees and the village around them as the general subject and scout on the day rather than targeting named spots.
Timing and crowds
Allocate one full day, which is the pack’s suggested duration. Hours split by season: around-the-clock access from April 1 to August 31, and 08:00-18:30 from September 1 to March 31, so in the fixed-hours season an early start is what secures a full day on site. The pack carries no visitor-volume data and does not date its peak season; the two-tier ticket (20 RMB off season, 30 RMB peak) confirms a busier period exists, but which months count as peak must be confirmed with the scenic area at 0875-5851399 or on the day.
Walking and effort
This is a village visit, not a hike: the pack lists no trails, distances, elevation gain, or difficulty ratings. The one-day suggested duration points to an unhurried, walk-at-your-own-pace outing rather than a strenuous one, and nothing in the pack indicates special fitness requirements. Budget the day loosely and scale your loop to your own energy; no route lengths are documented to plan around.
Getting there
The pack contains no bus routes, transfer points, fares, or driving times. What it fixes is location: the village sits in Gudong Town, Tengchong City, Baoshan, Yunnan. Treat onward transport from Tengchong as something to confirm locally, via the scenic area phone line at 0875-5851399, rather than relying on published schedules, since none are documented here.
Cost breakdown
The only cost documented is admission: 20 RMB in the off season and 30 RMB in peak season, applicable daily across the year. The pack notes these are reference figures superseded by the scenic area’s same-day disclosure, so budget to the 30 RMB ceiling and expect possibly less. No other charges — parking, internal shuttles, guides, or equipment — appear in the pack; that means undocumented, not free, so confirm any extras on site.
