Last day in Zhangjiajie - Grand Canyon and National Forest Park

On the 7th day, it was the last day for us to be in Zhangjiajie, we went to the Grand Canyon.







The entrance.







Looks so steep and narrow.







Not good for those with acrophobia!







Steep stairs too!














And all the way we slid down along this path~







Waterfall.







The great mom.














It's really nice walking here. Fresh air, beautiful scenery and less crowd.







There is a sign "downhill the flying fox rushing". LOL







My mom looks so young!







Satisfied :)







Rivendell in China.







Dragonfly~







Like watercolor. 







^_^







Another cruise to go~






Mirror.







Lunch again.













"Old fashion" restaurant~ hahaha







Next destination:







The green train.







You can choose to walk too!







Foggy day still~







They call them the 3 sisters.










































Food again, dinner!
Awesome fish soup it was!







Chicken soup is good too!







Yeah, dinner time is beer time.







fatty meat!







Oh yum! My fav century egg!














The tour guide said, without the chillies, the chef would not know how to cook a dish here in Hunan. LOL!







Well that's all for Zhangjiajie now. Next we went to Macau and went home. Since I've been to Macau, there's nothing much to write. Next will be my solo trip to Thailand!



Cheers!

Zhangjiajie scenic park - Wu lingyuan

The excited day has finally arrived! We went to visit the Zhangjiajie Scenic and Historic Interest Area or in Chinese, Wu Lingyuan, a UNESCO world heritage site!




Walking towards the entrance!







CNY 245 for this ticket, which allowed us to use for 2 days.






Going to take the Bailong Elevator!
It's claimed to be the highest and heaviest outdoor elevator made by glass.






Take a pic first~






This is considered as less people queueing.






Woooo hoooo~~~ zoom zoom zoom~~~






So excited to see first time!






Mom was being stylish. 






On the way to the enchanting stand~






Panoramic view~













I think the view would be even better if it was clear.








So grand~






^_^






You can find stalls like this in Zhangjiajie, they have all sorts of local made souvenirs you want to have.






Can you spot the turtle?






Fresh air~






Be prepared if you are planning to visit Zhangjiajie, steps are everywhere. Lots of them!






The natural link bridge!






Lunch time!






Chicken soup, best!






Limited source they have on the mountain. 






LOL, very catchy!






Well, the view was not this of course.

Unable to take a pic of it as it was very narrow, and only the photo booth photographer with a special standing place could take it.






Statue of a famous general in Zhangjiajie.






Taken while in the cable car.






Cable cars going between the mountains, so awesome!






Content was something like "ba zang"~






In China, man-tou and condense milk is the pair.






Best chicken skewers! 






Our Chinese guide.






After dinner, we went to watch another show.






The Charming Xiangxi Theatre~






We're early.






With some of the team mates.






Again, we had a pretty good seat.






The show began with drums performance.






Then singing and dancing~






Then acrobatics.













In charming xiangxi show, there were 2 stages, one indoor and the other one outdoor.






Remember to move quickly!
Our driver and guide were nice enough to reserve good seats for us.






More than 1000kg this man was holding.






Walking on the giant sword!






Another day  ended. It was quite a good show, not bad trying :)
