A New Attempt to Hold Exhibitions at High-Speed Railway Stations

This is a new attempt in Zhangjiajie's tourism promotion and marketing," Cheng Danfeng said. "Photography serves as a matchmaker, and light and shadow convey emotions. I hope that through such a photography tour, travelers taking the high-speed rail from south to north can see the beauty of Zhangjiajie, fall in love with Zhangjiajie, and come to Zhangjiajie."
