• Furong Town - This exclusive day tour, complete with an English-speaking guide and private vehicle, takes travelers beyond Zhangjiajie’s renowned national park to two must-see western Hunan treasures, with all-inclusive benefits: entry tickets, a delicious local-style lunch, and cruises at both destinations. The guide and driver will collect guests from their Zhangjiajie hotel, and the 1.5-hour journey to Furong Town is enhanced by detailed commentary on the region’s history and Tujia ethnic culture.
  Upon reaching Furong Town, a 2,000-year-old Tujia settlement known as the “waterfall-hung town,” guests will follow the guide to explore its ancient flagstone streets—lined with traditional stilted houses and local craft shops. Visit the iconic Tuwang Bridge, a historic structure offering panoramic views of the town’s layout and surrounding landscapes, then admire the majestic Furong Waterfall, which cascades directly through the town center, creating a dramatic natural backdrop.
• Fenghuang County - Next, board a cruise on the You River, where travelers will glide past cliffside Tujia dwellings and lush green riverbanks, witnessing the seamless blend of the town’s architecture with its natural surroundings. After the cruise, enjoy a hearty Tujia-style lunch, featuring local specialties like braised pork and sour fish, to experience authentic Hunan flavors.
  Following lunch, a 1.5-hour drive leads to Fenghuang Ancient Town, celebrated as China’s “Most Beautiful Small Town” for its poetic riverside setting and rich cultural heritage. The guide will accompany guests to explore Shen Congwen’s former residence—the former home of the renowned Chinese writer, showcasing his life and works amid traditional wooden architecture.
• Fenghuang Ancient City Museum - Visit the Yang Family Ancestral Hall, a well-preserved example of Miao ethnic architecture with intricate carvings and historical relics, then stroll across the historic Hongqiao—a centuries-old stone bridge that serves as a landmark and offers stunning views of the Tuojiang River. Throughout the tour, the guide will share stories behind each landmark and answer any questions guests may have at any time.
  Embark on a distinct cruise along the Tuojiang River in Fenghuang, different from the You River cruise in its focus on well-preserved stilted house clusters and vibrant local life along the riverbanks. As night falls, the town lights up with warm lanterns that cast glittering reflections on the water, creating a magical, fairy-tale ambiance unique to Fenghuang.

At the end of the tour, the guide and driver will safely transport guests back to their Zhangjiajie hotel, concluding an unforgettable journey filled with cultural discoveries and natural beauty.
