The bridge was opened to the public on 20 August 2016 and ever since the response from the visitors is overwhelming. |
Liang laying on the glass bridge for a daring photo shot. We completed walking up and down the glass bridge and were able to complete it quite fast due to the relax crowd. |
We stopped by at this restaurant for lunch it was another round of Hunan food before proceeding to the Yellow Dragon Cave 黄龙洞 which was on the same route back to Wulingyuan. |
The lunch was good with a little variant of ingredients but the cooking style was about the same. I enjoyed the soup dish. |
The surrounding before at the entrance point is nicely landscaped with interesting plants and beautiful features. |
Huanglong Cave 黃龍洞 (huánglóng dòng) ; literally means "Yellow Dragon Cave" is a karst cave located near the Wulingyuan district. Every year million of visitors will visit this cave. |
The guided tour in the cave would take about two hours which includes a boat ride down one of the underground rivers. |
The Noisy River is one of the two underground rivers found inside the cave which 2,820 metre long and 6 metre deep averagely. The water stays constantly at 16°C or so throughout the year. |
One of the 96 passages in the cave. Indeed there is a fair bit of walking and stair climbing, therefore one has to be fairly fit to endure the 2 hours tour. |
The cave is colourfully lit. |
The passage running through the many stalagmites and stalactites as we ascended and descended along the route led by a local in-house guide. |
The highest stalagmite measuring 19.2m tall and an icon of Yellow Dragon Cave. This structure is so precious that it has been insured for 100 million RMB and looks like a toothpick. |
The tallest stalagmite is also known as the "Sea Suppressing Needle" with a plague stone describing it. |
The entrance and exit point of Yellow Dragon Cave. |
Having a taste if Xiangxi cuisine for dinner. |
Zhangjiajie Cultural Show – Charming Xiangxi 魅力湘西 is located next to Pullman Hotel, hence it was an easy walk to the show. |
Lastly an outdoor performance immediately after the indoor show before we called it a night. A short walk back Pullman Hotel to end Day 4 of the tour. |
