5.00Really beautiful!!! Good organization, super nice and helpful staff and the flight was perfect! 45 minutes or so, at sunrise, just my best experience in China by far! The staff doesn’t speak English, but it doesn’t matter, we still manage to understand each other. Ps: be careful it takes at least 2 people to fly. I recommend without hesitation. Just magic. 😊❤️
