You are advised to take a plane to Zhangjiajie first. Upon arrival, you can take a taxi to Middle Bus Station which usually costs CNY11 or so. Then you may take the shuttle bus to FH at the cost of CNY80/person. The bus leaves at 09:00, 12:30, 14:30, 15:30 and 17:20.
In addition, you can travel there in the drizzling rain. This old town will be more antique and authentic under the drizzle and mist. It could be another experience. It is worth noting that you may take the umbrella with you. If it rains heavily, you may not go there at that time.
According to the present data, it will cost CNY450-600 without traffic and accommodation.
