Re: Trip to Zhangjiajie, Hunan, China

Day 6 and 7 Zhangjiajie town The taxi came at 11.00 to pick me up as promised and it took about 40 minutes for the ride to Zhangjiajie city. I got into my room and noticed that the location was perfect. I could see from the window the place where the cable car and buses left for Tianmen mountain. I ...

Re: Trip to Zhangjiajie, Hunan, China

I have been to the one in Ha Long Bay and I still think the one in ZJJ is the best I've seen. The Ha Long one is rather short compared to this one and I can't recall any river or lake inside the Ha Long cave.

Re: Trip to Zhangjiajie, Hunan, China

Day 4 10 mile Gallery This morning I was a bit lazy to get up and then went to the park without having breakfast, thinking it would be easy enough to have something to eat once I’m there. I took a bus to the area called 10 mile gallery. This was basically a valley in between two mountain ranges and ...

Re: Trip to Zhangjiajie, Hunan, China

I have to excuse, there are some illogical orders in the photos. I had a problem with my computer, it was trying to update to Windows 11 but wasn't successful so it took me three tries to post this last one. I am back to my W10 now and hopefully it will work ok. However, it looks like I may need to ...

Re: Trip to Zhangjiajie, Hunan, China

Day 3 continued This time the bus trip wasn’t so long and I arrived to Yuanjiajie area. This was the most packed area in the national park and I guess mainly because everyone wanted to take a selfie in front of the Hallelujah mountain made famous by the Avatar movie.

Re: Trip to Zhangjiajie, Hunan, China

Day 3 I woke up fairly early, wnt to have breakfast and headed for the park. I paid for the four day ticket and got a discount price as I’m over 60. All stories that I had read suggested to go early and start from the Yuanjiajie area where the famous Avatar mountains are located. They warned that un...

Trip to Zhangjiajie, Hunan, China

Day 1 I started my trip again with a train to Guangzhou. I had a working day on Thursday until 15.00 and my train for Guangzhou left at 18.10 from Zhuhai. That was enough time for me to go through the customs at Hengqin and then take a bus to Zhuhai station. One hours train trip and I was in Guangzh...

Re: Thai Football 2023/24

Do you ever feel like you're the only one interested in this topic?
Maybe there's not many of us but I am still interested, even though I left Thailand 16 years ago.

Re: News of the Weird - this just in!

Well, honestly, I can't see why it would only affect one particular group. Would the female or male sex workers not be affected? But as your post is only a screenshot, it's not possible to tell what the whole story is.

Re: News of the Weird - this just in!

So more alt-right propaganda about climate change. Who in their right mind would believe in this?

Re: The Beer Thread 2

Just bought 0,5 l Harbin beer in a Guangzhou supermarket for less than 18 Baht. Not a bad taste either.
