Visiting Zhangjiajie During Summer Vacation
Actually, there's nothing particularly special to bring—just the usual things you'd need for a regular trip.
The weather has been hot lately, so no need for thick clothes.
If you're going to hike, be sure to wear well-fitting shoes.
Because even if you take the cable car up and down the mountain, you'll still walk for nearly 4-5 hours.
The temperature in the city is around 33 to 35 degrees Celsius. Inside the scenic area, the temperature difference between morning and evening is about 5 to 6 degrees lower than in the city, while daytime temperatures are similar to the city!
Clothing: As the weather is hot, it's recommended to wear short-sleeved shirts, skirts, shorts, thin T-shirts, open-collar short-sleeved cotton shirts, and other cool summer clothing. During the day, it's hot and easy to sweat, so it's advisable to use anti-dehydration cosmetics and use less foundation and blush. Also bring some sunscreen! Carry cold medicine to prevent colds (better safe than sorry).
Special transportation within the scenic area: The world's highest outdoor sightseeing elevator (height: 326m, time: 1 minute 58 seconds) -- Bailong Elevator, 56 RMB per person per ride
Tianzi Mountain Cable Car: 52 RMB per person per ride, about 8 minutes
Ten-Mile Gallery Sightseeing Train: one-way 23 RMB per person per ride, round-trip: 33 RMB per person per ride, takes about 30 minutes
The above special transportation options are chosen based on your physical strength. If you're in good shape, you can hike to the top of the scenic area and avoid taking the elevator. Hiking takes about 1.5 hours and over 1,500 steps. It's recommended to choose a cable car when going down, because as the saying goes, "It's easier to go up than down"! If you don't take the cable car down, walking down takes about 2.5 hours, over 3,500 steps, 5 uphill slopes, and 5 downhill slopes (locals call it: five ups and five downs).
