Hi Sissi.

Thank you for your email and please accept my apologies for the late reply - I have had to rebuild my computer and there has been a few problems which I have just sorted out.

The whole trip was EXCELLENT.  Everything went very smoothly.  All hotels were in great locations. 

We did add some extra sights into the trip that would recommend to others -

Shanghai - ERA: Intersection of Time
Suzhou - the new museum
Zhangjiajie - Night Cultural Show
Zhangjiajie -Tianmen Mountain
Bieishan Rock Carvings on route to Huangguoshu Waterfall - we felt that to stay all day at the waterfall was excessive.

We were disappointed with Fenghuang - has become to modern.

Would not recommend the overnight train Guiyang to Chongqing - was the worst night train ride we have ever had in all of our three trips to China - very bumpy and jerky ride and the cabin was just so hot.

Would recommend that any traveler doing a trip like ours to have a mobile phone that is able to use a China Sim Card.

Have attached some pictures -
