张开家门引进世界
Photos of Zhangjiajie, after an unconscionably long delay:
The road goes ever on and on (one hopes, to the summit and not a ravine)
Vertigo-inducing view from the bus. Apologies to Li Bai for the terrible pun on 蜀道难, but it seems that the mountain roads in the state of 楚 (and half of China, probably) are just as difficult (though much easier to traverse than when the poem was written)
Two views of the 天门洞(Heaven's Gate Hole)
What one sees for miles around.
Climbing in the Wulingyuan scenic area: all the mountains look like this after some time, except for a few memorable ones:
Thumb
Finger
(rest of?)Hand
Three Sisters
And a nocturnal performance in the mountains before we started for the next leg (so to speak) down the Yangtze River through the Three Gorges
