The
Eastern Discovery Tour
Day 9 |
|
|
|

After getting the cable car up, I started
walking back down and around. Having walked all the way up though I
didn't intend to walk all the way down. |
|

Following the signs to the zip line, and
ending up at what looked like a giant garden shed was a little
disconcerting. |
|

On the other side of the shed is this. It's a
giant zip line in which is fast and thrilling, and is set in a
spectacular location. It was my favourite of the 3 zip lines I did on
this trip. |
|

After the zip line I continued the rest of the
way down to look around some of the places I missed near the parks
entrance. |
|

One thing I found was these this carousel and
kiddie train ride. |
|

The last area I visited was the least forested
and busiest area, but also the most spectacular, known as the Lingguang
Temple. |
|

This area had loads of people, including a
huge queue of people waiting to prey inside the Lingguang Temple. This
area was also inhabited by a number of Buddhist monks. |
|

The area around the temple itself was huge,
plus at the back was a large set of steps leading up towards more
sights. You can't see this wall that well in this photo (your not
allowed to take photos any closer) but if features some spectacular
carvings on it. |

steps. |
|

I could have spent longer at Badachu, tracking
down the last of the sites, but at this point I decided to get the bus
back to Shijingshan park. |
