The journey

Two Chinas, one trip

Begin in Shanghai — riverfront grandeur, garden lanes and the best small meals in the country. Then fly west to Zhangjiajie, where sandstone pillars walk out of the mist: the landscapes behind the floating mountains of Avatar. Easy walking, cable cars where the mountain is steep, and evenings long enough to breathe.

Shanghai · Days 1–4

The river city

The Bund · Yu Garden · the old lanes · the French Concession

Arrive to a riverfront welcome walk on the Bund, garden hop through Yu Garden, and eat your way through the city's small dishes — soup dumplings included. A day of choice between the skyline view from above or the old water town on the city's edge.

Zhangjiajie · Days 5–9

The stone forest

National forest park · Tianmen Mountain · glass walkways · quiet streams

Stand among the Hallelujah mountains of film fame, ride the world's longest cable car to Tianmen Mountain's cave in the sky, and walk — if you wish — the glass bridge. Gentle trails along Golden Whip Stream keep every day within an easy range.
