Zhangjiajie Four Days Tour Itinerary

Zhangjiajie is a world-class tourist city. The natural landscape here can give you a mood of returning to the primitive planet. It is all the divine work of the Creator to let you enjoy the most wonderful scene. Here is a detailed strategy for you.

Zhangjiajie is located in the northwestern part of Hunan, the middle and upper reaches of the river. It is the most important tourist city in Hunan and one of the most important tourist cities in China. It has many tourists every year and is also the prototype of Hallelujah Mountain in the year of Avatar.

Route:

Day 1: Shanghai-Zhangjiajie-Ancient Street in the West

Day 2: Huangshizhai-Golden Whip Creek-Ancient Love in Zhangjiajie

Day 3: Ten Mile Gallery-Yuanjiajie- Yangjiajie

Day 4: Baofeng Lake-Shanghai

Transportation guide:

Taking a plane to Zhangjiajie is the most convenient. There is an airport, and the airport bus can go to some parts of the city, but it's not very convenient. Most of them need to change cars, so if there are many people, it is recommended to take a taxi to Wulingyuan Scenic Area for about 120 yuan.

The high speed train is not yet available, so the train is slow. If it is near the city, no problem. If it is farther away, it is not recommended. Zhangjiajie bus station is close to the train station and there are shuttle buses to the scenic area.

Hotel Accommodation:

It is not recommended for individuals to stay in the city, it is quite far from the scenic spot. It is recommended to stay near Xibugu Street, where there are more hotels. You can also take a stroll.

Fare:

The main attractions in Zhangjiajie now are Wulingyuan Scenic Spot, Tianmen Mountain National Forest Park, Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon, and Zhangjiajie Ancient Love. You can choose the place you want to go and buy the ticket. If Zhangjiajie is ancient love, it is better to book in advance, sometimes it is hard to find a ticket.

My itinerary includes tickets to three attractions.

Wulingyuan Scenic Area:

Wulingyuan Scenic Area includes many classic attractions, such as Ten Mile Gallery, Yuanjiajie, Huangshizhai, Suoxi Valley, White Dragon Stairs, Yellow Dragon Cave and so on.

Opening time: 7:00-18:00

Sounds expensive, but the ticket is valid for 3 days. Fingerprints are required to enter the park. The ticket provided is a card, so don't lose it.

The ropeway and the mini-train are charged separately.

Baofeng Lake Scenic Area:

Admission: 96 yuan, including entrance fee for attractions and boat trip.

Opening time: 9:00-19:00

Please show your ID when you purchase the ticket to enter the park.

Notes:

1. If you arrive at Zhangjiajie airport, it is recommended to call a car online, otherwise it is easy to temporarily increase the price to take out the customer, and peers will also encounter. If you ask for extra money in the middle of the day, you must be careful. The attractions are so busy, this situation really can not be avoided.

2. Summer is very hot, but mosquitoes do not rest, remember to bring a variety of anti-mosquito supplies.

3. Umbrella is a must. In fact, Zhangjiajie is more beautiful after the rain, cloudy.

4. There are many monkeys in the scenic area. Try not to wear clothes with too bright colors, such as yellow and red. Monkeys are more likely to reach the claws directly. Don't feed them freely if you have food. Some monkeys are aggressive, you can watch it from afar.

Detailed introduction of four-day tour to Zhangjiajie

Day 1: Shanghai-Zhangjiajie-Western Ancient Street

To go to Zhangjiajie in Shanghai, you have to take a plane. The whole process is about 2.5 hours. When you arrive at Zhangjiajie, it's already 1pm. You take a direct taxi in front of the airport, no bus. Because the bus also need to transfer, not very convenient. It cost 110 RMB to take a taxi to Xibugu Street. The driver was very nice, did not increase the price in the middle of the journey, so I have a good initial impression of Zhangjiajie.

Lived in Suoxi Mountain Residence - Zenland, right next to Xibu Street, eating and traveling are very convenient.

The environment is quiet and Zen-like, with clever details.

Stroll down nearby West Street. In fact, there is a river beach here. Many tourists and locals are playing in the water there. It's a great place to watch the sunset.

Next to the inn is Suoxi Mountain House Restaurant. You can try all kinds of delicious food here. My girl here is so hospitable that she can come to the mountains and the hills. Don't worry, the rice wine here is produced from sweet silk. Girls can also make a few bowls when they come here. If the boys have it, they won't miss it. Fellow travelers are eager to experience the ethnic flavor here, so it's not for nothing.

Hunan specialties, a variety of bacon, chopped pepper fish head is also to taste. Minced pepper fish head is indeed a major feature of Hunan cuisine. It is very tasty and flavorful, and I feel that I can smell the strong flavor of fish and chopped pepper.

As night falls, take a look at the night view of Xibugu Street. There is a suspension bridge on the street. If you have time, you can wait for the lights on the suspension bridge to turn on one by one. There are bars, restaurants, swimming, dating and the locals love it.

Day 2: Yellow Stone Village-Golden Whip Creek-Ancient Love Affair in Zhangjiajie

The Yellow House is the first location of the legendary Avatar. It cannot be said that Zhangjiajie's fame was brought by Avatar. But the expansion of its international impression must have something to do with becoming a prototype.

The ropeway at Huangshizhai must be experienced because some of the carriages are glass-bottomed and transparent. This kind of ropeway can only seat 5 people, but the regular carriages seat more people. If you are not afraid of heights, it is recommended to sit on this completely transparent. The excitement is doubled. Of course, I did not sit there, worried about Mulberry.

As a sunshine baby, it was sunny everywhere I went, so a lot of the overcast scenery was easy to miss. After I took a sunny photo, some of my friends silently snapped the last photo taken on a rainy day. The mountains are cloudy, the peaks are hidden, and the valleys seem to float. That's why it looked like a floating mountain in Avatar. But as far as the scenery is concerned, it's already beautiful, with the peaks and the green mountains.

There are lover's peaks here, which you really have to imagine to realize. The imagination of tourists is also astounding, and without any explanation, they actually manage to find the exact spot.

There are monkeys here that are meaner than people. Haha, they're the only ones who rob you. While I was taking serious pictures, a female monkey growled behind me. Visitors exclaimed and I paced slowly as if nothing happened. In fact, I was terrified. When the monkey gave me a paw, I couldn't take it anymore.

So although monkeys are cute, don't mess with them easily. They really snatch things from others to eat.

It really depends on your mood if you want to play by yourself or not. An hour is enough to go in a small circle. A couple hours walking in a big circle wouldn't be too much. It depends on your stamina. When you come down from Huangshi Village and stroll along the Golden Whip Stream, you would think that Zhangjiajie is famous for its divine prestige, but you wouldn't want to have such a beautiful and elegant place.

Sometimes you see wedding photos with green forests, babbling brooks and tinkling springs. It's a good place for young couples to date. It's also said to be the location where "Journey to the West" filmed Piggy's daughter-in-law, so you really have to compare carefully to see it.

The Zhangjiajie Thousand Years of Love opens at 10pm. Easy shopping in the morning is a good choice, and in the afternoon to go to the thousand ancient love is also a good choice. You can play directly into the evening. Tickets here also allow multiple entries. Just remember to brush your face.

You can buy tickets directly in the lobby. Of course, I still recommend booking the show in advance. Because it hasn't been open for long, bookings are still hot and the lobby is full of quaint and mysterious atmosphere.

The program schedule in the park should also be clear.

I've actually been to other places. Each place has its own characteristics, but one thing is **** the same, that is, I must get the park guide, read the time schedule of the various performances, and rationalize the time of the show, because there are really a variety of programs.

The entrance corridor is quite Japanese garden style, decorated with oil paper umbrellas at the top, which is quite ethnic.

Enter the park and walk around Dayong Ancient Street. Zhangjiajie ancient name Dayong, naturally full of ancient flavor. There are many stores, so we feel as if we have traveled to the past.

The little man at the door of this handicraft workshop looks like a real person from a distance, making everyone gasp in amazement, and only when we look closely do we realize what is going on.

There are craft stores, hanbok stores, and all kinds of your favorites, no takeout needed. There are countless food options, and you can even have a bowl of wine to drink.

Arrived at the ancient love scene is about noon, hungry. Of course we have to go straight to the point, eat. If the food in Dayong Ancient Street doesn't appeal to you, then go to another food street.

Most of the restaurants on that street are yogurt, jellies, fruits, dumplings and skewers. What you want to eat depends on your choice. The yogurt is really good. Please recommend it.

There is also a hanbok rental store here, so you can switch to the small garden next door to take photos.

Or buy a windmill and go with the wind. Different people naturally have different ways to play.

After you've eaten and drank, catch the first show on your schedule. The location is near the Lover's Sea. There is also a white sandy beach. It's nice to play in the sand. Kids really love it. Just give your kid a sand digging tool and you can play for half a day.

Of course, once the trapeze show starts here, everyone's attention will be completely drawn away.

The high-flying maneuvers that sell the tricks keep everyone on their toes. The parasol comes in handy if the little brother makes the mistake of spilling water on the crowd on a whim.

After watching the trapeze show, lay back on the beach and enjoy the relaxation of the Ager. Enjoy the sun and the breeze. Of course, you can also take your kids to Rotten Apple Land, which is a paradise for little kids. It's a scaled down version of the adult amusement park with various carousels.

There is also a small library where you can have a drink, take a break and blow on the air-conditioning, not to mention how cool it is.

The Jianghu flash mob in the program is located in the ancient street of Tai Chung, which is definitely not to be missed. If you wear ancient costumes, you will be overwhelmed in summer. Every time this time of year, the roadside is jammed. It seems as if the scenic spot is full of people, which is one of the characteristics of ancient love.

The performances here are one after another, scene after scene, throwing embroidery balls. Mind you, the toastmaster's son-in-law interacts with visitors. Dudes who get hit by an embroidered ball can go up on stage and have a bowl of toast with a girl.

The little brother who goes up there is so funny, the crowd erupts in harrumphs of laughter. Of course, it's okay to miss some of the performances. A lot of them had repetitive lyrics that we can watch next time.

For the Ancient Love Scenic Area, these performances are just appetizers, and the main event is naturally Zhangjiajie's Ancient Love.

The show is divided into six acts, preface "Canghai Mulberry" - Act 1 "Wuling Wonderland" - Act 2 "Legend of Tianzi Mountain" - Act 3 "Small Town Past" - Act 4 "Mazang Tree" - End "Love in Xiangxi".

Here you can see the beauty of Zhangjiajie, listen to the sound of clear water and feel the power of love.

The beautiful choreography here is really amazing, and the opening is a big move. It's definitely the best show I've seen this year.

Sequence "The Sea of Change":

This nature is full of magic, as the stars move, the mountains reclaim, and the peaks rise, creating a majestic and magnificent landscape.

Fish swim, the ancients hunt, and the species are endless.

Bill "Wuling Fairyland":

Nature is dominated by beauty, song and dance, recreating the appearance of the various tribes of Wuling.

And this acrobatic show is also amazing, with all kinds of styling all over the place.

The second bill, The Legend of Tianzishan:

After the light, there was darkness. It was a backward time, and the decadence of the toff system plunged the young couple into endless misery, much like the Scottish aristocracy of the Braveheart years.

This is a history of struggle. There are always sacrifices in the struggle, but they bring good results.

Act III, "Once Upon a Time in a Small Town":

Love is poetry, the source of all beauty, beauty in the moonlight, boating on the lake, murmuring between lovers.

This stage is beautiful and the scene makes you feel something.

The border people here have pure and beautiful hearts, a form of life that is 'beautiful, healthy and natural' that does not contradict human nature."

Act IV, Episode 4, "The Masang Tree":

If love is waiting, giving, enjoying, and grieving, then there is another kind of love, which writers have called great love. Once it starts, there is no turning back.

The mother and wife waiting under the mulberry tree may not always return, but it is blood, sacrifice for the country, for the nation, true love.

I thought the one-man show was worth the price of admission. The sound was beautiful, the staging was top-notch, and the actors performed with an emotion and intimacy that will stay with you for a long time.

Next to the theater, there is a historic gift store. Again, it's all about buying and shopping. The neighborhood is really lovely.

From the theater, the bonfire started. Everyone held hands and danced together.

Don't walk away after the bonfire. There is also a bubble show, the bubbles in the evening, the gold color of the sunset. After playing, there is more gorgeous beauty. Adults and children have a great time together, giving way to no one.

Here is the rhythm of playing from morning to night. I want to keep playing in the water. It's a kid's world.

Or challenge your courage and walk through the air.

See if you're brave enough for the haunted house.

Try it when it rains, too.

In short, whatever you want to play. When night falls, let the wind blow and cool off.

After eating at the scenic spot, you can go back to your room and just rest and have a contented day.

Day 3: Ten Mile Gallery-Yuanjiajie-Yangjiajie

Wulingyuan Scenic Area is really big, with a lot of gates, so make sure you know which scenic spot to go to. If you come to Ten Mile Gallery, you can't miss the sightseeing train here. It's open all the way, and it's not too hot, and you can take pictures. Of course, you can choose to walk by yourself and you will have more time to stop and take pictures.

All you can see in the Ten Mile Gallery are rocks, all kinds of strange shapes and patterns.

One of the more interesting things to see here is a small monkey park. The monkeys here are much more docile than those in Huangshizhai, probably because they are often fed. There will also be some poses where tourists will stop to take photos, making it a unique scenery.

If you want to relax, there is a VIP bus here, which of course is much more labor-saving than the free shuttle bus from the scenic area. You don't need to wait in line. Use the Kauste van, enjoy yourself, and take the Tianzishan cable car. It will go over the peaks and all the other mountains look dwarfed under the sky .

From Herong Square down, you can see the typical Zhangjiajie landscape.

There are many peaks and rich layers. If you are hungry, you can have lunch at the scenic spot. Jiahe Tianzishan Eco Restaurant is still good, self-service, with many choices of dishes. Scenic area has such a restaurant, cost-effective has been very satisfied.

After lunch go to Yuanjiajie. Here is a circle. Turn around will always come back, do not worry about getting lost. There is the first bridge under the sky, which is more suitable for a distant view. There are many observation platforms. You can see this natural bridge hanging between two peaks from different angles.

Many people will cross the bridge more to ask for a favor, and I am no exception.

This is a pearl in the southern sky, the prototype of Love in Xiangxi. Overlooking the stone forest, imagine the scene under the clouds.

The peaks are uniquely shaped, with different forms that fit together, but there are sayings such as Five Finger Peak.

Viewed from different angles with different aesthetics, a detour is recommended.

Not far from Yangjiajie Yuanjia Street, a 20-minute walk. It's nice to have a VIP car. It's a great labor saver. Kudos to the Great Wall of Nature. It's so perfect. It really feels like a city wall.

When you're hungry on the way down you can eat a cow and dabble with the walled garden.

In the private room on the second floor, you can also look outside. The sunset is beautiful along the riverbank. The owner really knows how to pick a place. The main course is a bowl and vegetables, not a large amount, but it looks quite spectacular. Well, I write myself hungry more successful.

Day 4: Baofeng Lake-Shanghai

Baofeng Lake, one of the locations for Journey to the West, was the first time I took a minibus to the lake.

There seemed to be smoke and fog

The boat had its own guide, and many places could be explained. On the shore, there were brothers and sisters singing and expressing their love.

The end of the lake tour, near the exit of the scenic area, there is the original site of the Waterfall Cave, perfect for punching in.

Walking about an hour to go out, and then fly back to Shanghai, relax for 4 days, fun and delicious.
