Hunan Zhangjiajie Pure Independent Travel Guide 5 Days 4 Nights

DAY1⃣️ Early morning ✈️ Landed in Changsha at 1:00 AM First slept until naturally waking up 😴 Took the subway 🚇 to Orange Isle, then a sightseeing bus to the statue. I only took photos 📷 in front of the statue plaza and was quite satisfied! Directly took the subway 🚇 to Yuelu Academy, definitely worth visiting! DAY1⃣️ Evening 🚄 Direct train to Zhangjiajie West, took a taxi to the hotel passing by the Seventy-two Wonders Building. Casually took a photo, don't recommend going down to visit it ❌ Just enjoy the lights 👌 Accommodation 🏠 at a small hotel very close to the scenic area, extremely run-down, not recommended 🤐 DAY2⃣️ Had rice noodles at a random breakfast place 😋 10-minute walk to Wulingyuan National Forest Park, Bailong Elevator, Yuanjiajie (Mihun Platform, World's First Bridge), Tianzi Mountain, Yubi Peak, Helong Park. We had a misty, drizzly day. Returned to the hotel at 4:00 PM to rest and eat. Watched Charming Xiangxi show at 7:00 PM, highly recommend 🌟🌟🌟🌟 DAY3⃣️ Rainy morning, we hesitated between Golden Whip Stream and Tianmen Mountain, finally chose 🚖 Tianmen Mountain. There's a detailed guide for this - we took Route A, not tiring 👏🏻👏🏻 (cable car up the mountain, Yunmeng Peak, escalator to Tianmen Cave, stairs down) ⚠️⚠️ Friendly tip: If there's fog or light rain, wait a bit. The weather changes quickly. We waited and saw the "Heaven's Gate" opening, beautiful 🤩 Took lots of great photos 📷 during the wait, perfect for social media 💯 DAY3⃣️ After dinner, definitely recommend getting a massage 💆‍♀️, super comfortable, full of energy the next day 👏🏻 DAY4⃣️ Morning 🚄 Direct train to Fenghuang Ancient Town, only 1 hour, very convenient 👍 A comfortable, leisurely day in the ancient town, exploring Shen Congwen's "Border Town." In the evening, went to a pre-booked photography studio for photos, also saw the night scenery, absolutely beautiful! DAY5⃣️ Morning 🚄 Direct train to Changsha, visited Hunan Provincial Museum! This was the most tiring day, my feet were killing me DAY6⃣️ One day 🚄 back to my lovely Qinhuangdao, where my bestie was waiting for me
