You'll wander Suzhou's UNESCO-listed Garden of the Humble Administrator and Pingjiang Road's canal-side teahouses.

Hike through Zhangjiajie National Forest Park's forested valleys and cliffs on well-maintained trails, wandering among the misty peaks of this UNESCO World Heritage Site. The trip includes a 2-hour trek along the Great Wall's Jinshanling section at sunset, where you'll walk one of the most original stretches.
