Zhangjiajie, Yangjiajie, Tianmen Mountain, and Fenghuang Ancient Town Pure Sightseeing 5-Day Tour

Morning: The guide and driver will meet the tourists at the airport, railway station, or hotel with a name board, then take an air-conditioned tour bus (enjoying 40 minutes of Xiangxi rural scenery along the way) and enter the scenic area directly from the Forest Park ticket station (the ￥248 ticket is included); hike through the "most beautiful canyon in the world" -- Golden Whip Stream Scenic Area (including attractions such as Guanyin Delivering a Child, Pig Bajie Carrying His Wife, Divine Eagle Guarding the Whip, Cleaving the Mountain to Save the Mother, Journey to the West filming location, Longevity Spring, and Meeting After a Thousand Miles). After finishing Golden Whip Stream, there are two ways to go up to Yuanjiajie Scenic Area at the mountaintop (Option 1: from Meeting After a Thousand Miles at Golden Whip Stream, hike up to Yuanjiajie via Luancuan Slope; Option 2: pay ￥180/person on your own (including the Bailong Elevator ascent and the mountaintop Tujia mountain village -- Yuanjiazhai ticket), take the eco-bus from Water Winding Around Four Gates to the lower station of the Bailong Elevator, then take the world's No. 1 outdoor elevator to Yuanjiajie at the mountaintop. Afternoon: After lunch, visit the core of the World Natural Heritage -- Yuanjiajie Scenic Area (including the prototype of the "Hallelujah Mountain" in the movie Avatar -- Qiankun Pillar, No. 1 Bridge Under Heaven, Nine Heavens Mystic Ladder, Qiankun Pillar, Heart-Linking Bridge, China-Korea Friendship Pavilion, Divine Turtle Asking Heaven, Soul-Enchanting Platform, and other attractions). Yuanjiajie is one of the most peculiar and spectacular mountaintop viewing areas in Zhangjiajie Forest Park, surpassing Huangshizhai and Tianzi Mountain Scenic Areas... Afterward, take about a 20-minute eco-bus to the accommodation at Daguantai. Accommodation location: Daguantai Scenic Area at the top of Tianzi Mountain (convenient for enjoying the magnificent sunrise when the weather is good) Special tips:

Morning: After breakfast, you can watch the sunrise, one of the four wonders of Zhangjiajie (requires good weather). Afternoon: Visit Yangjiajie Scenic Area, the most beautiful part of Zhangjiajie Scenic Area (Tianbo Mansion, One Step to Heaven, Sky Corridor, Three Ghost Passes, Yang Family Female Warriors, Echo Wall, Lover's Peak, Five Finger Mountain, Tianbo Mansion, Wulang Worshipping Buddha, etc.), and Wulong Village, the most famous bandit den in western Hunan. It is named because the village is perched on a dangerous mountain terrain, and when night falls, it looks like a black dragon coiled on the mountain ridge! The scenery of Yangjiajie, like Zhangjiajie, is mainly primitive natural beauty. Compared with Zhangjiajie, Tianzi Mountain, and Suoxiyu, apart from the geological landforms and some peaks being basically the same, it also has its own unique features. It is not like Zhangjiajie, yet even better than Zhangjiajie. It is an excellent scenic area that regular tour groups do not have time to visit... Afternoon: Visit Daguantai Scenic Area (Tianzi Seat, Immortal Bridge, Divine Chicken Pecking, One Step Difficult to Walk), and view the panoramic view of Ten-Mile Gallery from afar; among the Daguantai Scenic Area, Immortal Bridge is the most breathtaking! A stone bridge about 1.5 meters wide and more than 10 meters long spans two sheer cliffs; below the bridge, clouds and mist swirl, and the depth is bottomless! Occasionally, strange sounds of birds and beasts rise from the valley bottom! This adds a touch of mystery to the Immortal Bridge Scenic Area. In the evening, watch the sunset over Tianzi Mountain in Zhangjiajie - brilliant colorful clouds. Accommodation: Daguantai Scenic Area, top of Tianzi Mountain Special Tips: There are many scenic spots to visit today during the tour. Because mountain-type scenic areas mostly involve walking, sightseeing is relatively tiring, and there are few places to buy things in the scenic area. It is recommended to bring some snacks or drinking water to replenish energy and moisture.

Morning: Visit Tianzi Mountain Scenic Area (Fairy Maiden Scattering Flowers, Imperial Brush Peak, Tianzi Pavilion, Cloud Rock, etc.), known as the 'enlarged bonsai, reduced fairyland' and the king of peak forests, Helong Park, and the bronze statue of He Long, one of the ten marshals. Then go to the scenic area at the foot of the mountain. (There are two ways to go down the mountain: First, you can hike down via Wolong Ridge to the Ten-Mile Gallery Scenic Area at the foot of the mountain. Second, you can take the Tianzi Mountain cableway from the upper station down the mountain at your own expense of 52 yuan/person, and then take the scenic area shuttle bus to the Wulingyuan landmark gate.) Afternoon: Take a tour bus for about 50 minutes back to the city, and drive through the 'thousand-year ancient battlefield' Baizhang Gorge to exit the scenic area: the gorge is named because it has stone walls nearly a hundred zhang high piercing the sky, making people afraid to look up. Return to Zhangjiajie City. If the weather is clear, you can also see the majestic Tianmen Mountain and Tianmen Cave, the 'soul of Wuling', from the bus. In the afternoon, arrange a visit to a local life supermarket for guests to replenish travel supplies and choose local specialties. Around 14:30, arrive in the city and check into the hotel. Accommodation: Zhangjiajie City Special Tips: Today there will be frequent transfers between scenic areas and regions. It is recommended to check and carry your belongings properly to ensure a smooth journey...

Full Day: Take a bus to the lower station of Tianmen Mountain Cableway and visit Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park (the 258 yuan ticket and cableway ticket are included). Tianmen Mountain has a profound cultural heritage, is known as the 'soul of Wuling', and has the reputation of the first sacred mountain in western Hunan. It integrates peaks, rocks, springs, streams, clouds, and forests, and combines majesty, wonder, beauty, danger, and tranquility. It is known as an aerial primitive garden. We will take the Tianmen Mountain Cableway to visit Tianmen Mountain: see Tianmen Cave, the 99-bend road wonder (Tongtian Avenue), Li Na Villa, Ghost Valley Plank Road, Ghost Valley Military Formation, Yunmeng Fairy Summit, Tianmen Mountain Temple, Lingquan Courtyard, Wood and Stone Love, and other famous scenic spots. Tianmen Cableway: The cableway line has an inclined length of 7,455 meters, and the horizontal height difference between the upper and lower stations is 1,279 meters. It is the world's longest single-line circulating detachable grip cabin-type cableway, like a rainbow flying between 'the human world' and 'heaven', and also like a giant dragon soaring in the sky, clinging to the mountain and walls, rising straight to the sky, soul-stirring and magnificent. It has become one of the 'four wonders' of Tianmen Mountain Tourist Scenic Area. Tongtian Avenue: The winding road known as Tongtian Avenue has a total of 99 bends, like a jade belt winding around, with bends closely connected, layer upon layer, clinging to the mountain and walls, rushing straight into the clouds. The 'world's number one road wonder' has emerged. Viewed from the cableway, the road is as dense as a spider web, with a vertical height difference of about one thousand meters. Tianmen Cave Opening: Climb 999 steps to Tianmen Cave and pray for blessings. It is 131.5 meters high and more than 50 meters wide, opening north-south on a thousand-fathom sheer wall. It is majestic and towering, a rare high-altitude through-mountain karst cave, and a world-class wonder that fully displays the magic of creation. The 2006 Russian Air Force aerobatic performance at Tianmen Mountain in Zhangjiajie escalated the mystery of Tianmen Cave and once again made it a global focus. Ghost Valley Plank Road: Under your feet is an endless green field, flocks of small birds play in the canyon, and occasionally an eagle skims past your eyes. Close your eyes, stretch your numb legs, with a rapid heartbeat, open your arms, and you can get a most perfect, most exciting, and closest-to-nature SPA. Because, you know, enjoying scenery on a cliff is generally not something humans can enjoy. Around 14:30: Depart from Zhangjiajie City via Jishou to Fenghuang Ancient Town: Fenghuang Ancient Town, a national historical and cultural city, was once praised by the famous New Zealand writer Rewi Alley as the most beautiful small town in China. Along the way, enjoy the scenery of western Hunan and experience the customs of ethnic minorities. At night, view the night scene of Tuo River. When the lights of thousands of homes along both banks of the Tuo River are lit one by one, everywhere is colorful, placing you in a scene of splendid glory. Enter the bars of Fenghuang Ancient Town and experience the noisy yet romantic atmosphere. You can also choose a lotus lantern to make your best wish and put them together into the long Tuo River... Accommodation: Fenghuang Special Tips: There are no suitable restaurants or dining places in Tianmen Mountain Scenic Area, so you need to prepare some food yourself that day; be prepared for a simple meal on the mountaintop...

Full Day: In the morning, guests can visit the Fenghuang Ancient Town combo ticket attractions according to their own preferences [Fenghuang Ancient Town Combo Ticket] (148 yuan included): Former Residence of Shen Congwen, Former Residence of Xiong Xiling, Yang Family Ancestral Hall, East Gate Tower, Tuo River Rafting, Wanshou Palace, Ancient City Wall, Theme Museum, and Nanhua Mountain Park. For you! This ancient town has been waiting for a thousand years! Fenghuang Ancient Town has beautiful scenery, a long history, and many places of interest. Inside the town, ancient city towers and Ming and Qing dynasty courtyards still retain their charm, and the ancient and simple Tuo River flows quietly. View the clear and green Tuo River, and along the way visit the century-old Tujia stilted buildings on both banks. This place is not only beautiful in scenery but also outstanding in people and culture, with many famous sages. Tian Xingxu, the first-rank imperial inspector and Guizhou provincial military commander, who angrily executed foreign lawless missionaries to maintain national dignity; Zheng Guohong, a national hero who fought the British in blood at Dinghai and whose fame lasts forever; Xiong Xiling, the first democratically elected cabinet premier of the Republic of China and the 'Hunan prodigy'; the literary master Shen Congwen; the master of Chinese painting Huang Yongyu, etc. In addition, in your spare time, you can walk on the 'jumping rocks' of the Tuo River, the small stone slab streets in Ming and Qing style, and then follow the scent of ginger candy to stroll along the folk custom street. You will find that the small shops along the street are full of Tujia silver ornaments, Xilankapu, bamboo wares, and other handicrafts. Taste the local specialty snacks, which will whet your appetite and be unforgettable, allowing you to experience a truly leisurely trip to Fenghuang Ancient Town!
