Jiaguyuan Hostel
(嘉古院客栈)
Living in the shadow of its YHA big brother, the Jiaguyuan is a smaller, more discreet hostel in a side street of the Ciqikou Old Town.
It's as good a place as anywhere to get started, with a temple right across and a whole alley of small cafés and souvenir shops where you can escape the nightmare that is the Ciqikou main drag on a Saturday...
