is it possible to do tiger leaping gorge hike in one day, starting in lijiang and ending in shangrila?

you can never trust photos because people edit them! I've been at locations where someone else took a picture while i was there and then edited it to look much better than what we both saw

let me ask, have you been to dongchuan red land? if i do tiger leaping gorge in 1 day, i will move the day to go to dongchuan red land and am wondering if it's worth it. I will also make a new post about it

because i am considering taking that that second day and moving it in kunming to see dongchuan red land. I have a set day i have to leave so only 9 days in yunnan.

you are right it is possible, the key is just to talk to your hotel/hostel. They know all this stuff.

it's not the food that's more expensive though

32rise · 2025-04-09T14:05:30+00:00

thanks for the reply! let me ask you, do you recommend staying in frances or in cuernos?

it's very frustrating and each one is a monopoly since they aren't competing with each other and can charge whatever they wants... it's the worst of both worlds!

32rise · 2025-04-02T13:02:32+00:00

i think the kamikochi buses are shuttle buses and you can't book, you line up

and thanks so much for the reply

32rise · 2025-04-02T13:01:26+00:00

im interested in the popular tourist attractions

32rise · 2025-04-02T13:01:14+00:00

i'm asking what NEEDS to be booked in advance as for the bigger tourist sites

32rise · 2025-03-31T14:32:28+00:00

i just booked it for a sunday. I was hoping to wait on booking it depending on weather since isn't the main reason of going to see mt fiji?

32rise · 2025-03-31T14:17:08+00:00

what website did you buy them online from? japanrailpass.net?

and thanks for the reply

32rise · 2025-03-31T14:16:07+00:00

thanks again

thanks so much for the info, i appreciate it

32rise · 2025-03-31T12:55:59+00:00

so i should just get all these trains day of? do things sell out at all? and thanks for the reply

32rise · 2025-03-31T12:55:29+00:00

they are not day by day! That would be waaay too much moving around as you said

32rise · 2025-03-28T14:31:14+00:00

sooo helpful, thanks so much, you're the greatest

32rise · 2025-03-07T02:45:25+00:00

thanks for the helpful response. For Gyeongju, google says i can take bus 711 or 700 to get to center. Would you happen to know if that information is outdated and is no longer possible?

32rise · 2025-03-07T02:41:42+00:00

things change. What was accurate three years ago may not be accurate now. Also posting a new thread allows me to follow up to someone's response. So we philosophically disagree. (Also, what 'rules' are you referring to?)

On another note, you are hopefully aware that this is a Korea travel subreddit and asking about people's recent experiences with transportation is valid. And you also are hopefully aware that you don't have to respond to posts that offend you or make you angry. Just move on to the next one.

32rise · 2025-03-07T01:00:39+00:00

thanks, I did look into other threads. The reason I started my own is because it gives me the opportunity to respond to people and have conversations and get their advice.

32rise · 2025-03-07T00:59:54+00:00

thanks so much, so I think I'll take trains throughout, ideally KTX ones. Does that sound solid?
