Zhangjiajie: the wisdom of crowds
OK, so we're over-achievers. Give us a mountain and we'll climb it. However, at 37°C (99 F) in the shade, climbing mountains is just not such a bright idea, as we've learned. Wulingyuan Scenic Area, near the city (and village) of Zhangjiajie in Hunan province, is one of the most spectacular natural parks in the world, with thousands of strangely …
Tianmenshan - Glass Walkway on a Cliff!
After three days north in Xia Ping, we returned to Zhangjiajie city to visit another mountain park to the south. It's called Tianmenshan, and it's easy to reach. There’s a long distance cablecar departing right from the city.
G: Today we rode on the longest cablecar in the world and walked on a glass walkway sticking out from a thousand foot high vertical cliff wall. What more can I ...
Not for the faint of heart (by Ben)
... the cable car... I suppose because they just felt very secure. I think the highlight for both of us was the glass walkway, which as the name suggest is made out of glass, walls and floor. That was good fun and something we had been looking forward to. We also looked at a big cave thing, not really a cave, more of an archway i suppose. Frankly not worth the 999 steps to get to it!
The next day we didn't do too much. Walked around town for ...
Lift to the Sky, Life in the Parks, and.... WOW!
... how to get there. Thank you, Hong Lin!
We traveled to Xia Ping with our German friends, Holger and Jutta. It all worked well, despite steadily increasing rain. A taxi took us from Zhongtian Mansion to the Wulingyuan entrance of Zhangjiajie National Park. A helpful official ushered us to the correct park bus, and we reached the BaiLong elevator. Glass enclosed, we were swiftly transported up a vertical cliff wall, with just enough gaps ...
Choo-Choo-A- Woo-Woo
... long and the delays didn't help but we spent most of the journey sleeping and resting our tired legs from the previous 3 days of trekking. We arrived in Chengdu only to find out it was protest day. Apparently the Chinese and Japanese are arguing over a the ownership of an Island and as a result of this they were protesting through the city of Chengdu. So this meant parts of the city were shut off to local transport and meant we had to walk to our hostel, without ...

“ Not so international ”
Reviewed Jul 24, 2011
The amenities in this hotel are in good shape and clean. However, few staff speak English ('international' appears to refer to the Korean gift shop) and the breakfast buffet in the European restaurant consists of fried Chinese food and some toast. As in many Chinese hotels, the breakfast buffet is cleared half an hour early. Getting some sleep here may also become an issue, what with the street noise and honking tour buses at 6 a.m. Lastly, the tourism department turned out to be non-existent, but the concierge can be helpful with directions and information on transportation.
