TRIPtrotting

This place is so amazing, and it’s what inspired the landscape for Avatar. 

Welcome to Zhangjiajie National Park in China.

Here’s an activity every traveler should try: go cave exploring in the Kunming, China. In this Triptrotting activity, Triptrotters will be able to not only visit the caves, but visit an authentic jade factory, relax in a Chinese spa and visit the a tea house.

Fun fact: The Jiuxiang Cave is home to the largest limestone cave in the world. 

If you’re planning on visiting China, definitely make a visit to the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in the Hunan Province. The park has beautiful pillar-like rock formations, and was named the country’s first national forest park in 1982.

This doesn’t even seem real! We’d love to visit Pearl Shoal Waterfall in the western Sichuan Province of China. Has anyone been?
