Southern China with Wendy Wu Tours

Last week I was lucky enough to travel to Changsha & Zhangjiajie in Southern China with Wendy Wu Tours, we received the warmest welcome from the Chinese people in all areas and were treated to some spectacular sightseeing and incredible cultural shows.

The famous floating Avatar Mountains were a real highlight, and I would highly recommend this area to anyone who loves outdoor and adventure travel, not for the faint of heart when it comes to heights, you travel in the world longest outdoor elevator up a cliff that is over 300 meters high within 88 seconds.

As one of the oldest cultures of the world there were many stories shared and the belief systems of the older generations and clans was so interesting to learn, even more special when what we learnt was then showed in theatres.

If you have travelled with Wendy Wu you will know the all-inclusive tours are a fantastic way to travel and you will be spoilt along the way.
