This journey is not merely a trip; it is a narrative of a civilization, where you will walk the ramparts of ancient dynasties, lose yourself in landscapes that inspired blockbuster films, and feel the electric thrum of a nation charging into the future. From the solemn prayers of emperors at the Temple of Heaven to the dizzying heights of a glass skywalk, every day is crafted to immerse you in the diverse soul of this mesmerizing country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour journey begins in Beijing, the heart of Chinese history, where time seems to fold in on itself. Stand before the colossal stone dragon of the Mutianyu Great Wall, feeling the weight of a thousand years of history beneath your feet. Contrast this ancient majesty with a leisurely stroll through the Summer Palace, where emperors once sought poetic tranquility by Kunming Lake. Yet Beijing is not a city frozen in time; its pulse beats strongly in the contemporary 798 Art Zone, where industrial relics have been reborn as galleries and studios. Wander through the serpentine Hutongs, the city's living maze, and explore the sprawling Forbidden City, a golden testament to imperial power that still captivates the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 14 Days Beijing Zhangjiajie Guilin Shanghai Tour then catapults you into a world that feels utterly extraterrestrial. Zhangjiajie's National Forest Park is a realm of vertical wonder, where the \"Southern Sky Column\" rises like a skyscraper of stone, inspiring the floating mountains of Pandora. You will navigate the dizzying heights of Tianzi Mountain and challenge your nerves on the Glass Skywalk, suspended over a void 1,400 meters above the earth. Descend into the tranquil valleys to walk beside the crystal-clear Golden Whip Stream, a meditative retreat into nature's cathedral. Here, in this UNESCO wonderland, the ancient peaks of China tell a story of geological violence and breathtaking beauty that leaves every visitor in awe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"width: 100%; aspect-ratio: 16\/9;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZVVuKpezc7U?si=IfjGwwJ2ZXV-ZzVR\" title=\"YouTube video player\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeaving the jagged spires behind, you glide south by high-speed rail to the softer, poetic landscape of Guilin, where the world is painted in watercolors. A cruise along the emerald Li River reveals a serene paradise of rounded karst peaks reflected in mirror-smooth waters, an image so iconic it graces the nation's currency. The charming town of Yangshuo offers a delightful fusion of East and West on its ancient West Street, while a bicycle ride through the Ten-Mile Gallery lets you pedal through a living masterpiece. Here, the pace of life slows, the mist hangs gently over the rice paddies, and the landscape invites quiet contemplation, a soothing balm after the adrenaline of Zhangjiajie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"width: 100%; aspect-ratio: 16\/9;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PnvxooNF96k?si=9xAJQih71gA9ummb\" title=\"YouTube video player\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, the grand finale of your 14 Days Beijing Zhangjiajie Guilin Shanghai Tour unfolds in Shanghai, the dazzling metropolis that defines China's modern pulse. As night falls, the Bund presents a stunning dichotomy: the colonial heritage of the West Bank facing the hyper-futuristic skyscrapers of Pudong, a visual symphony of light and glass. Ascend the Jinmao Tower for a sky-high perspective, and drift along the Huangpu River to fully absorb the city's vibrant energy. Contrast this urban spectacle with a serene day-trip to the ancient water town of Zhujiajiao, and explore the intricate beauty of Yu Garden. From the ancient Great Wall to the summit of Tianmen Mountain and the neon glow of Shanghai, this tour is a meticulously crafted tapestry, offering the ultimate journey through the many faces of China.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHighlights\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFobidden City: a sprawling imperial palace complex that served as the home of emperors for over five centuries\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMutianyu Great Wall: as one of the best-preserved parts of the Great Wall, the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall used to serve as the northern barrier defending the capital and the imperial tombs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTemple of Heaven: the site used by emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties to offer sacrifice to heaven and pray for bumper harvests\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSummer Palace: an imperial garden during the Qing dynasty built by the Chinese Empress Cixi as a pavilion for quiet retreat\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHutong Tour: explore the Beijing's ancient, narrow hutongs and traditional courtyard residences, a deep immersion into old Beijing culture, history and daily life.\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Bund: the soul of Shanghai where every building tells the story of Shanghai's century long vicissitudes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHuangpu River Cruise: a relaxing way to have a panoramic view and feel the pulse of the metropolis Shanghai with the west-meets-east, tradition-hits-modernity feature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJin Mao Tower: reach the 88th floor of Jin Mao Tower and get an aerial view of the nighttime Bund.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZhujiajiao Ancient Town: known as the \"Venice of Shanghai\", the 1,700-year-old water town features well-preserved Ming and Qing dynasty architecture, a labyrinth of canal network, and 36 ancient stone bridges. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eZhangjiajie National Forest Park: a wonderland of towering sandstone pillars, lush forests and breathtaking landscapes that inspired the floating mountains in the film \u003cem\u003eAvatar\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eTianmen Mountain National Forest Park: second to the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, this national park is renowned for the awe-inspiring Tianmen Cave (\"Heaven's Gate\"), the world's longest mountain cableway, thrilling cliffside glass skywalks, and the \"99 Bends\" road.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLi River (Li River Cruise): an emerald river dancing through a vast range of karst peaks, which represents a very charming living Chinese ink painting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYangshuo Ten-Mile Gallery: a world-famous picturesque landscape belt that features dramatic karst peaks, clear rivers and endless fields that all create a very charming Chinese ink painting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeneral Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCode of Tour: CTT0000064\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLength of Tour: 14 Days\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArrival City: Beijing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDeparture City: Shanghai\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePrice of Tour: please make an inquiry\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CTT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51337873719589,"sku":"CTT0000064","price":0.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0959\/8871\/1717\/files\/The_Forbidden_City_Beijing_tour_China_travel_11.jpg?v=1782465387","url":"https:\/\/www.chinatraveltime.com\/products\/14-days-beijing-zhangjiajie-guilin-shanghai-tour","provider":"China Travel Time","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
