    the only problem is the last train from zhangjiajie leaves at 15:50 which is early especially for a 23 minute train ride

    Thank you for the nicely edited but yet informative Furong town destination. It does capture the town's atmosphere ( as it is) - not pretentious and I enjoyed watching it. Looks like there is another place to venture when touring Zhangjiajie. Appreciate your efforts. 👍👍👍

    • @gibbontravelogue
      @gibbontravelogue  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, very doable indeed. A day trip will be sufficient. However, the night scene in Furong is quite amazing so stay late and take the last train, or spend the night at Furong.

    Hi bro, tks for you video! Was amazing and so useful! Question: 1) The train from Zhangjiajie to Furong is in the principal Zhangjiajie Station? 2) For moving from hotel to station, Furong station to Furong town you use a car app or a taxi? Is it easy to find a taxi available?

    • @thiagocamilo138

    • @gibbontravelogue
      @gibbontravelogue  29 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Great, glad that you find the video useful. Yes, Zhangjiajie west station is the main station. You can find accommodations around there, near the Zhangjiajie City. Moving around Zhangjiajie, you will need to 打车 using Didi. While you can flag a taxi, then tend to overcharge you by asking for a flat fare and not going by the meter.
