You'll then visit Tai Kwun, where decades-old heritage buildings gained a new life and a lively, artistic vibe fills every corner, and take the Central-Mid-Levels Escalator, the world's longest outdoor covered lift.

Later, enjoy gorgeous views of Victoria Harbor from the Star Ferry, a down-to-earth way of making the crossing, before stepping into Wong Tai Sin Temple for a closer look at the locals' Taoist beliefs. You have the option to draw a fortune stick in a traditional "kau cim" ritual here!

Taking the Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car, you'll enjoy a sweeping view of verdant mountains and towering residential buildings on the way to Ngong Ping Village, a cultural-themed village where you can pick up local crafts as lovely souvenirs.

Later, step into the century-old Po Lin Monastery to feel its serene, calming vibe. You have the option to stay for lunch here and try its delicious vegetarian food paired with a pot of tea. Sitting at the hilltop, the 34-meter-tall Tian Tan Buddha is one of Hong Kong's most famous landmarks.

Day 5: Marvel at Zhangjiajie's Avatar Mountains

Kickstart an amazing day in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park by taking a scenic train ride to admire the towering sandstone peaks. From the glass windows of the 326-meter-tall Bailong Elevator that clings to the cliff face, you'll take in the breathtaking vistas of this UNESCO World Heritage Site from a different angle. In Yuanjiajie, the sandstone peaks' grotesque shapes form an other-worldly realm that inspired scenes from the Avatar movie. The views here become more atmospheric on a rainy day, with the mountains shrouded in a light veil of mist.

Continue your exploration as you proceed to Tianzi Mountain, where more awe-inspiring scenery awaits. A cable car ride downhill then takes you through the forest of stone peaks and creates the perfect end to a day filled with awe and excitement!

Luckily enough, you may also encounter monkeys that call this area home!

Later, hop on the world's longest cableway, which spans over 7 kilometers, for a scenic ride to the top of Tianmen Mountain. From there, a thrilling, 20-minute walk on a glass-bottomed walkway built on the cliff face brings you unparalleled views of the verdant mountains. Be awed by the stunning Tianmen Cave, a colossal, naturally-formed arch between two mountains carved out by forces of nature.

Second Honeymoon My wife and I celebrated our 20th anniversary by spending a few weeks touring around Asia. We loved how Odynovo worked with us to craft a tour of what we wanted to see and how we wanted to see it. This was our first time traveling with a private tour guide, and it was truly amazing. they took care of all transportation, tickets, and everywhere we went we had someone who not only spoke our language, but was also very well-versed in the places we were visiting. We saw Beijing and then took a bullet train to Xi'an. In both cities we had tour guides who had done this "a thousand times," and as a result knew all the tricks on where to take the best pictures, what lines to stand in, where to eat, and what not to waste your time seeing. At one point our guide pulled out ponchos from her backpack when it started to rain, while another helped us haggle for a good price on a new suitcase. We were surprised by how much we loved China, and it is safe to say that is because of the quality of service we got from Odynovo. Oh, and the hotels were great, too! In our first hotel my wife fell in love with her breakfast soup that she had to have every morning, while in Xi'an we were right around the corner from the Muslim Night Market and were able to get to it in less than 5 minutes of walking.We are already looking to see what tours we will be doing next through Odynovo, as the service was amazing, the quality was remarkable, and the cost was very worth it for what we received.

Fabulous! We had a fabulous experience with our guide and Odynovo walking the Great Wall of China, and all other sites in Beijing. We loved our Peking duck dinner. It was fabulous. Thank you, Sammie/Jing for a great experience.

Amazing travel experience My name is Zarah M. Babangida a Nigerian and i visited Beijing with my colleagues from the office. During our 5 day stay in Beijing, Ms. Eva Ma, was our Tour guide and from the minute we came through the Arrival Gate of the Airport, we were embraced by her alluring smile and warm welcome. She remained consistent with her warmth, a kind and intelligent professional who exuded unique passion not just for her job as a tour guide but, even more so as a proud Chinese woman. Her outstanding insight and knowledge of the sweet Chinese history and heritage left us in awe. I couldn't be more proud and thankful that she was assigned to our group and she made our stay exciting, fun-filled effortless and knowledge packed. I absolutely commend her dedication to work which she depicted throughout our stay. I recommend her to every visiting tourist because to know Eva, is to love her. If it were up to me, i will increase her bonuses or upgrade her salary as i am sure most tourists would want or revisit for her sake first and then perhaps other reasons.Thank you Eva and keep the passion up🙌.
