Brief Introduction Located in northwest Hunan Province and covering an area of 369 square kilometers, the Wulingyuan Scenic Area comprises the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in Zhangjiajie City, the Suoxiyu Nature Reserve in Cili County, the Tianzi Nature Reserve and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour du lịch phượng hoàng cổ trấn] the Yangjia-jie Scenic Area in Sangzhi County. It is famous for its "five wonders", namely queer peaks, tranquil valleys, elegant rivers, deep forests and ancient karst caves. It is ranked as a national AAAAA tourist area. Wulingyuan features some 3,000 towering sandstone pillars and peaks, 243 of which are more than 1,000 meters high and most are over 200 meters high. Of these, the Imperial Pen Peak, in excess of 100 meters above sea level, has several parallel apexes of different heights. It is regarded as being the best representative of the peaks at Wulingyuan. There are 32 streams, each with a length of at least 2,000 meters, in the Wulingyuan Scenic Area, and the Gold Whip Stream and the Suoxi River both run through it. The Gold Whip Stream was formed naturally and gets its name because it passes by the Gold Whip Rock. It extends 5,700 meters through the steep cliffs and queerly-shaped peaks. With limpid water and luxuriant vegetation around, it has been recognized as one of the most beautiful waterways of Zhangjiajie. Meanwhile, Wulingyuan boasts large numbers of karst caves. The well-known Yellow Dragon Cave has a ground area of 100,000 square meters, is 7.5 kilometers long, and has a vertical height of 140 meters. It is rare among the world's karst caves in terms of the scale, number and shape of its stalactites. Transport The Zhangjiajie Hehua Airport, about five kilometers away from the downtown, has opened flight routes to over 20 cities. However, with the exception of Shanghai, Beijing,Guangzhou, Chengdu and Changsha, these services are not available on a daily basis and are often subject to changes, so tourists should refer to the flight numbers as displayed on the computer of the local booking offices. Through the Shimenxian-Changsha Railway and the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway, Zhangjiajie is linked with over 10 large and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour phượng hoàng cổ trấn] medium-sized cities by train. In the scenic area itself, environmentally-friendly buses shuttle passengers between any two of the scenic spots. Mini-buses travel frequently between the downtown of Zhangjiajie City and the Wulingyuan Scenic Area, a distance of some 30 kilometers. In addition, the [http://www.dict.cc/?s=Zhangjiajie%20National Zhangjiajie National] Forest Park and the Suoxiyu Nature Reserve are connected by a highway, and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] the Tianzi Mountain Nature Reserve and the Yangjiajie Scenic Area by the Liangyuan Road. Catering Within the scenic area as a whole, the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park has the most developed supplementary facilities. In regard to catering, Zhangjiajie cuisine belongs to a branch of Hunan cuisine, but features a greater degree of traditional farmhouse cooking styles such as smoking and baking. The main characteristic of the cuisine is its distinctive peppery taste. The price of food in the scenic area is comparatively high, but here one can taste such special local dishes as the Sauteed Preserved Meat with Kudzu Root, the Rock Edible Fungus, and the Stir-Fried Eggs with Sour Corn. Shopping Wulingyuan has many special local products. The kiwi fruit, the Qingyan Mingcui Tea, the Longxia Jasmine Tea and pine mushroom are all renowned; the Sangzhi Salt Dried Bean Curd was served as a tribute during the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911): the Kudzu Root Powder is pure natural beverage; the Maoping Maojian Tea features a light fragrance and beautiful color; and the Lameizi series of foods with local flavor are also highly recommended.

In China Airlines Plug apos;all You Can Fly apos; Deals To Pierce...

BEIJING, July 28 (Reuters) - China Southern Airlines on Tuesday rolled out an 'all you can fly' pass, becoming the latest in a fleet of cash-strapped carriers to join a promotional craze that analysts say has helped revive a coronavirus-ravaged air travel market. At least eight of [http://www.healthable.org/?s=China%27s%20dozens China's dozens] of airlines have introduced similar deals since June, often priced around $500 for [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour trương gia giới] in some cases unlimited flights. Industry watchers say the packages have been a shot in the arm, with costs offset by otherwise empty seats being filled in a [http://www.exeideas.com/?s=country country] where daily flights last month recovered to 80% of pre-coronavirus levels. The global aviation industry is keenly eyeing China as a pilot for air travel recovery trends, as the country reopened its economy months earlier than other places after managing to bring the pandemic mostly under control - at least for now. But Luya You, transportation analyst at BOCOM International, said these promotional packages - ranging from unrestricted flights to an array of terms and conditions - can only stimulate demand when coronavirus risks are already sufficiently reduced. "While these packages may work in domestic markets, we do not expect similar rollouts for outbound routes anytime soon," she said. The "Fly Happily" deal launched by China Southern, the country's biggest carrier by passengers, allows buyers to use passes for as many flights as they wish for destinations across the country from Aug. 26 to Jan. 6 for 3,699 yuan ($529.03). As with other deals, passholders also pay a small tax to the airline - about 50 yuan - per flight. Meanwhile China Eastern Airlines' 3,322 yuan "Fly as you wish" deal, launched in June, only applies to weekend travel. Hainan Airlines' 2,699 yuan package is only valid on flights to or [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] from Hainan province. China Eastern has sold over 100,000 passes, state media reported. That helped boost passenger loads on its domestic routes to over 75% on recent weekends, according to aviation data provider Variflight. "I'm going to Changsha this weekend and Guangzhou the next weekend," said Elaine Shen, a Shanghai-based insurance professional just back from an eight-day trip in the country's northwest using the China Eastern pass. "The experiences are great," Shen said. "I would not be flying this much if it weren't for this pass." It's not just Chinese airlines that have jumped on the deals bandwagon to revive the travel industry. The Marriott Group said it was aiming for a fresh promotional campaign in August 2020 in the wake of a successful April deal giving buyers the chance to eat a month's worth of buffet breakfasts in any of its 146 China hotels for 588 yuan.

FRANKFURT, March 17 (Reuters) - Volkswagen, the world's largest carmaker, said it is preparing to shut down its factories as a way to curb the spread of the coronavirus and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] warned that 2020 will be a very difficult year. "Given the present significant deterioration in the sales situation and the heightened uncertainty regarding parts supplies to our plants, production is to be suspended in the near future at factories operated by Group brands," Chief Executive Herbert Diess said on Tuesday. Production will be halted at Spanish plants, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour du lịch phượng hoàng cổ trấn] in Setubal in Portugal, Bratislava in Slovakia and at the Lamborghini and Ducati plants in Italy before the end of this week, he said. Most of the other German and European plants will begin preparing to suspend production, probably for two to three weeks, VW said. By contrast, production in China has been resumed with the exception of the VW factories in Changsha and Urumqi. Chief Financial Officer Frank Witter said, "2020 will be a very difficult year. The corona pandemic presents us with unknown operational and financial challenges. At the same time, there are concerns about sustained economic impacts."

The firm, whose name has not been revealed, specialises in selling cosmetic products, according to the news outlet which is affiliated to Changsha Legal Channel. In a social media video, the two company officials can be seen putting their palms together as they walk down the aisle and bow towards the stage, where the group of eight staff members are already sitting on chairs behind basins of water. The employees are said to have achieved the best sales figures. The executives kneel on stage in front of the staff members and begin removing their shocks to cleanse their feet in the unusual ritual, which is reportedly meant to boost their morale.

Some people said the ceremony was a clever way for the boss to avoid giving her staff bonuses. One such web user commented: 'The boss is so cunning. Washing feet for employees means they cannot ask for financial rewards.'
