Day 1 arrive in
Zhangjiajie
Upon arrival in Zhangjiajie (you can either
fly in or take the train), you will be met by your
English-speaking guide, who will then take you to
your hotel. Zhangjiajie is famous worldwide for its
pristine national scenery and the government’s
potent policy on tourist infrastructure construction
in recent years has boosted the region’s tourist
industry and made it one of the new-rising popular
tourist destinations in China.
Zhangjiajie’s main tourist draw (what we will see
tomorrow) is the Wulingyuan Scenic Area, which was
added to the UNESCO World Heritage list for its lush
vegetation, unique sandstone pillars, pristine
waters and a wide variety of species of flora and
fauna. It contains three major sights including the
Zhangjiajie Forest Park, Suoxi Vale, and Tianzi
Mountain, with a total coverage of 396 square
kilometers.
Once you arrive at your hotel the rest of the
evening can be spent at your own leisure.

Day 2 Zhangjiajie-departure
(B, L, D)
Following breakfast we’ll get started with the day’s
activities with a visit to Tianzi Mountain, by way
of cable car. Tianzi Mountain Nature Reserve is a
mesa in the northwest of Wulingyuan. Up on the mesa,
the field of vision is widely opened up and it is a
perfect location to have a panoramic view of the
nature reserve. Tianzi Mountain has four scenic
wonders, namely Cloud Billows, Moon Brightness, Sun
Glow and Winter Snow. The cloud billows are ever
changing, morning and evening sun glows vast sky,
moon shines in the still night, winter snow falls
enchanting the scenery, like a lyric, like a
landscape painting. Here in the Tianzi Mountain,
scene majestic is in all its variety. There are five
main scenic zones and over ten scenic spots in the
Tianzi Mountain area.
After coming down from Tianzi Mountain we’ll pay a
visit to the Yellow Dragon Caverns. Yellow Dragon
Cavern is a typical Karst cave, an area of irregular
limestone in which erosion has produced fissures,
underground streams, and caverns. So far, the
discovered cave is about 15 kilometers long and 140
meters high, covering an area of 48 hectares. The
Cavern can be divided into two parts. One is the dry
cave, and the other is the water cave. Even in the
Yellow Dragon Cavern, there are caves inside caves,
and one cave may lead to many others. Sometimes
there are caves under the ground too. Stalactites,
stalagmites, stone blossoms, stone curtains, stone
branches, stone canals, stone pearls, and stone
macrospores can be seen here and there in the
cavern, which constitutes a fantastic yet natural
scene.
When our full day excursion is complete, you will be
taken to either the airport or train station, and
you will travel on to your next destination. |
