Chang Tai Piao Lu is north east of Zhang Zhou and a whole lot of fun. We hired a taxi for under 100 yuan each way from Zhang Zhou and it takes less than an hour to get there. If you want to catch the bus to the town it's about six yuan but this area doesn't have taxis yet. If you're game you can hire a motorbike for a 100 yuan both ways with three people and the rider.

Ultra light flying. This is fantastic and worth every yuan and minute. You fly around the surrounding area for ten minutes viewing the river and mountains. The advertised price is 168 yuan per ride but with connections from local people you can get it cheaper. I wanted to video the flight but wasn't allowed so you need to come and find out for yourself.

White water rafting. This is about 2 hours and you'll need to bring a change of clothes because you will get wet.The advertised price is 168 yuan and just like the ultra light can be cheaper with the help of knowing some locals. If you don't have a change of clothes or you forgot you can buy shorts and t-shirt for 30 yuan.

The mountain hike. This takes 5 hours and includes food, during the peak season you might need to make a reservation. This cost 100 yuan per person and can be cheaper.

The firing range. If you want to blow off some steam or feel powerful for a short while then go to the firing range. One bullet cost 5 yuan but this gets addictive once you fire the first shot.
