Embark on an unforgettable 7-day journey through China's most breathtaking landscapes, combining the surreal beauty of Zhangjiajie's karst wonders with Guilin's poetic rivers and rice terraces.
Begin in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where you'll marvel at the towering quartzite sandstone pillars that inspired Avatar's "Hallelujah Mountains." Walk the thrilling Glass Bridge at Grand Canyon, suspended 300 meters above ground, and explore the mystical Yellow Dragon Cave, adorned with stalactites and underground streams. Hike along the Golden Whip Stream, a serene valley flanked by lush forests and jagged peaks, and ascend Tianzi Mountain for panoramic sunrise views over a sea of clouds.
Travel to Guilin and cruise the Li River, where emerald waters weave through limestone peaks, passing iconic scenes like Nine Horses Fresco Hill and Xingping Village (featured on China’s 20 RMB note). In Yangshuo, cycle through karst-lined countryside, visit local farmers, and try bamboo rafting on the Yulong River. Conclude with a hike through the Longji Rice Terraces, where dragon-scale-like fields cascade down mountainsides, and immerse yourself in the culture of the Zhuang and Yao ethnic villages.
