China Travels: Huanglong (Golden Dragon) Cave, Zhangjiajie (黄龙洞, 张家界)

Initially, I thought that Huanglong (Golden Dragon) Cave was just like any other cave that I have visited before. Shitloads of stalactites  and stalagmites throughout the cave. Boy was I so wrong.

Our first stop into the Zhangjiajie National … Continue reading China Travels: Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon (大峡谷, 张家界)

I don’t usually make such blog posts but this trip has … Continue reading China Travels Through Changsha, Zhangjiajie, Yangtze River, Chongqing (October 2014)
