DAY 1
Yuanjiajie & Tianzi Mountain
First part · Discuss an entry time and access via the Bailong Elevator, then follow Yuanjiajie’s linked viewpoints.
Later · Continue by scenic shuttle towards Tianzi Mountain’s panoramas, choosing a descent to suit the day.
Moderate walking and repeated steps; elevator, cableway and shuttle tickets need itemised confirmation.DAY 2
Golden Whip Stream & Ten-Mile Gallery
First part · Choose a manageable section of the Golden Whip Stream corridor beneath the sandstone walls.
Later · Discuss Ten-Mile Gallery and its walking or local transport options, with time for breaks.
A selected stream segment is not the full 7.5 km route. Agree endpoints and walking capacity first.DAY 3
Mountain morning & city connection
First part · Choose a short local interest that fits the confirmed departure time.
Later · Make the agreed rail or other connection and settle into Changsha.
Do not reserve an ambitious mountain visit against an unconfirmed train time.DAY 4
Changsha city interests
First part · Discuss city interests such as Yuelu Mountain and how much walking you prefer.
Later · Allow time for local food interests and your onward connection.
Named venues, opening times and transport are checked before the itinerary is finalised.
