Cancellation Policy
Essentials — After breakfast, drive about 40 minutes to Fanjingshan, a UNESCO biosphere reserve and Buddhist holy mountain nicknamed the “Sky City”. Take the eco-bus and cableway (not included; together with insurance approx. ¥198) to ascend, then hike through primeval forest to sights including Red Cloud Golden Summit, Mushroom Rock and Golden Summit temples. Visit shrines, cross bridges and climb steps up to 2,336 m to overlook the Wuling Mountains. Afterwards, descend and drive on to Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village. At Xijiang, take the scenic shuttle into the core area, check into a stilt-house inn and enjoy free time wandering among wooden houses and terraced fields.
Note: If Fanjingshan tickets cannot be reserved or the mountain is closed due to bad weather, the scenic visit will be cancelled, and the official ticket price will be refunded. If the whole group agrees to switch to another nearby scenic area, any ticket difference will be settled at list prices.
