It is 71 meters high, with ears as long as 7 meters, the backs of its feet as wide as 8.5 meters, and even its little fingernails are higher than those of a normal person. This giant Buddha was built in 713 A.D., and is a symbol of the ancient people's prayers for peace and prosperity, and protects boatmen from the dangers of the rapids.

Shopping on Nanjing Road in Shanghai was just amazing! It's truly the "First Commercial Street of China", where tradition and modernity blend perfectly. You can find awesome souvenirs and experience the trendy vibes in cool stores. The neon lights at night are just spectacular, shining bright like Times Square in New York. The food here is incredible too. I had a feast for my taste buds. Shanghai, I'll definitely be back!

As a solo traveler from Canada, I was nervous about navigating China alone—but this 11-day tour was PERFECT! From hiking the Great Wall at sunrise (Day 3) to gasping at the Terracotta Army (Day 5), every day delivered ‘pinch-me’ moments. The real showstopper? Zhangjiajie’s Avatar Mountains (Day 7)! Our guide made the stone pillars come alive with stories.
Massive thanks for handling all logistics—bullet train tickets, entry passes, car! And the 4-star hotels surprised me.

Our 2-day Zhangjiajie tour was beyond spectacular! As someone who’s visited Beijing and Shanghai for work, this trip revealed China’s wild, magical heart. Day 1 in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park felt like stepping onto Pandora—I’m a huge Avatar fan, and Yuanjiajie’s floating peaks left me breathless. The misty pillars and lush valleys like pure movie magic!
Then came Fenghuang Ancient Town, we eat dinner beside the thundering waterfall. It seems Unreal! The night views of stilt houses glowing over the river were straight from a fairy tale.
For fellow Avatar lovers and adventure seekers: Don’t miss this bucket-list experience! 10/10 would return.

Q & A
Asked by Dolly from South Africa | July 29,2025 14:53
Can I bring a drone to take aerial photos of the Leshan Giant Buddha?
I’ve seen amazing drone shots online and want to capture my own.
Asked by Isaac from Italy | July 29,2025 14:08
What’s the difference between Mount Emei and other Buddhist mountains in China, like Mount Putuo?
Why is Emei special enough to be a dual cultural/natural heritage site?
Asked by Carey from Canada | July 29,2025 13:39
What’s the view like from the Golden Summit?
The itinerary mentions "Sea of Clouds" and Mount Gongga—how likely am I to see these? Does the weather affect it a lot?
Asked by Jared Hal from Ireland | July 29,2025 13:14
The itinerary says we might see wild monkeys on Mount Emei—are they dangerous?
I’ve heard stories of monkeys stealing bags. Should I avoid carrying food, or is there a safe way to interact with them?
Asked by Cowper from Spain | July 29,2025 11:32
I’ve heard the Leshan Giant Buddha is huge, but what’s the best way to see its full size?
The itinerary mentions climbing up and down, but is the optional boat ride worth it? I want to make sure I get the "wow" moment.
