      No one from Taiwan would say he or she's from Province of China.
      If you are from Taiwan and you think Taiwan is a province of China, then you should use your legislative right to correct that and make Taiwan a province of China.
      Talk is cheap, anyone can say anything.
      Currently China has no control of Taiwan, and Taiwan government has removed the provincial government from their system. So there is no physical province in either China or Taiwan government.

    My suggestion is that after you visit Zhangjiajie, the neighbor in Zhangjiajie is Xiangxi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, another 5A scenic spot, with the famous ancient town Furong Town. You can also enjoy the traditional cultural architecture and customs of the Tujia and Miao ethnic groups. The journey from Zhangjiajie to Xiangxi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture is about 2 hours by car. It's also a cheap way to see more of China's most famous sights, from Xiangxi Autonomous Prefecture to Chongqing Municipality (above on map) or Guilin in Guangxi Province (below on map). It can be reached directly by car or high-speed train

    How amazing it was as a foreigner to travel the Zhangjiajie National Park all by yourself! The park was so huge, and there were 4 routes A, B, C, and D. From the video, I guess Yours was supposed the B route. You have to plan and know your route very well or you will certainly get lost. I'm from Hong Kong and was there 5 days ago at your exact locations. Love it and I know how busy you were at the same time shooting videos and finding the right roads. Zhangjiajie Park is so beautiful and definitely a must-see, and China has so many gorgeous mountains awaiting you and other foreigners to visit. Enjoy and have fun!

      NO,中国名山之首是泰山,中国3000年以来,帝王几千公里都要去的泰山,2000年以前,皇帝从西安步行到山东省泰山,接受上天的册封。称为封禅。这样的传统经历3000年不变,持续进行。直到清朝灭亡。而且自认为有功绩的皇帝才会去泰山。自认为治理国家不太好的皇帝不会去,中国最值得去看的山: 张家界,华山,黄山,五大名山:泰山,华山,恒山,嵩山,衡山。中国人最喜欢游山玩水。

    The red stuff soak in the herbal drink is good for your eyes, if you say there is ginger in it, ginger is good for body circulation keeping you warm.

    I've just returned from China and I've noticed that the public transportation system and tourist attractions there are very well-developed. However, what's lacking greatly is the availability of information for trip planning and communication during travels, especially in English. This has made my trip quite exhausting and led to several mistakes. China has many beautiful places, and I'd love to visit again. Therefore, I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could help improve the tourism information system to better accommodate international travelers.

      This is exactly my impression as well after a month of travelling around. It’s an incredible country that feels like it is so self sufficient, it really doesn’t ‘need’ international tourism. So as an outsider it kind of feels like you either adapt to their system or it’s going to be hard going lol. Hopefully in time there will be more changes to make things international tourist friendly.
