Zhangjiajie National Forest park is a MUST VISIT place in China. It is difficult to explain with words how this place is, we are still staggered and stunned after visiting it… It is crazy cool, it is like a city with skyscrapers made out of mountains and greenery with insane formations and among them is misty, full of magical corridors and hollows in which some of them are raining like if it was the last day on earth and another ones chilled drizzling… We spent three days exploring the park and we had enough time to see all the places but the ticket is valid for 4 days, which is quite nice! 💙FEELING THE AVATAR EXPERIENCE💙 . . . #passionpassport #scenicspotguide #seasidephotoguide #summervacation #china

I am staying in Zhangjiajie, close to Dayong town, so booked a taxi to the site costing approximately 90rmb. I made sure to leave extremely early to beat the crowds and arrived at 7am. It was very easy to buy a ticket and considering the ticket gives you access to the park for 4 days, very cost effective. My ticket cost 224rmb. The ticket includes the shuttle bus journeys but not the cable car trips (65-75rmb), glass elevator (65rmb) or sightseeing train (38rmb). These have to be booked separately at the site. This did bump the cost up quite a bit. The park is huge! I spent 2 days exploring. Everything is beautiful and easy to find if you have a map (our hotel provided us with a map and you can buy them on site). There are numerous highlights to see such as the first bridge, the Avatar shooting site, the glass elevator and Tianzi mountain. There are also lots of hiking trails offered and these are clearly labelled on the map. We hiked up Tianzi mountain, it was a fantastic experience that took about 2 hours. The visit requires a lot of walking so wear sensible shoes. There are plenty of food and drink options on site. There is also lots of shopping opportunities, I bought a beautiful oil painting of the mountains. An amazing experience and whether you are in China or not, this is something to add to the bucket list! #naturalwonders #nationalpark #hikingtrails #china #summervacation

Day2 Route：Forest Park ticket station - Huangshi Village - Golden Whip Creek - Ten miles gallery.There are a lot of monkeys at the gate of the forest park and Huangshi village, we met the monkey fight, there are a lot of monkey mothers with little monkeys ask food from tourists, you should better not taking food and bags, or there will be a risk of being caught by monkeys! Huangshi Village is the earliest scenic area developed in Zhangjiajie. Now not many people go there. You can walk for 2 hours to avoid the crowds. Ten Mile Gallery is great place to be visit by a small train. When you enter, you’d better to sit on the left side of the train and when you come out, you sit on the right side of the train. Three sisters mountain is the most significant attention.Although we caught the rain, but after the rain the air more fresh, misty like a fairyland! So beautiful! #besttrip#summerdays #summervacation

Check out the route here🙌 Zhangjiajie's natural scenery is unique and beautiful everywhere! During the Qingming Festival and Labor Day holidays, Zhangjiajie is really crowded😇 If you want to avoid the crowds🫠 and feel the tranquility of nature, follow me and carefully select three small but beautiful destinations! 1️⃣ Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon! The best choice for a spring outing! The flow of people is not even half of that at Tianmen Mountain Forest Park. But the scenery is by no means inferior! 2️⃣ The first bend of Maoyan River and Lishui! Nature's amazing craftsmanship has created a valley and gorge landscape with a depth of 100m and a curvature of 90 degrees, which is majestic and breathtakingly beautiful. You can go to Tianmen Mountain for free! 3️⃣ Explore the center of the Earth, hike the secret regions of western Hunan, and start caving! You will pass through the Gates of Hell, the Gates of Angels, the Gates of Heaven, Jiaergou, etc. Those who love outdoor activities will definitely be satisfied! 📝Outdoor Tips 📍In Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon, there are Line A and Line B, and Line A is purely scenic and also cheaper. It's your first choice if you want to walk and enjoy the scenery for 50💰! But it's mainly walking! Line B package includes various attractions such as the glass bridge, 7-choice-5 items, etc.🫧 📍There is a free cruise in the Grand Canyon, and you can also take a ferry on the way back🫧 📍The first choice for driving to the Grand Canyon from Baoji is Parking Lot 1, so it's more convenient when you return🫧 📍Tianquan Mountain Lishuiyuan is located in Sangzhi County, Zhangjiajie City, and you can drive from Zhangjiajie City or take a bus from the West Bus Station to Shentangping to reach Tianquan Mountain National Forest Park🫧 📍The roads in Zhangjiajie are narrow and winding, so be careful when driving🫧 📍Cave exploration at the center of the Earth. The interior environment of the cave is complex. It's better not to go alone. Find a guide or go with others🫧 That's all for the share, if you have any questions, please leave a comment~ Have a happy holiday everyone🥳

With its massive three-dimensional cave structure, a tourist route distinguished by waterways, and a rich karst landscape, it is known as a 'world cave wonder'. 4⃣Lake classic: Baofeng Lake Zhangjiajie's Baofeng Lake Scenic Area is famous for its unique high gorges and flat lake scenery, the 'Baofeng Waterfall' that cascades down from a height of three thousand feet, and the mysterious ancient temples in the deep mountains. Integrating mountains and waters, and blending folk customs, it is known as a classic of the world's lakes, with a depth of 72 meters and a length of 2.5 kilometers.

The Glass Bridge is located in Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon, while the Glass Skywalk is in Tianmen Mountain Scenic Area. Both require separate admission tickets.

#chinatrip A stunning, breathtaking and awe-inspiring place. The inspiration for Pandora in the Avatar movie. An absolute must-see. The best time to see will be in early winter as the place will appear mythical and magical in the mist. The park comprised of dense forests, deep ravines, deep canyons, unusual peaks, caves, and pillar-like rock formations blanketed throughout the park. These pillar rock formations are what the park is renowned for around the world.

Zhangjiajie's uniqueness, danger, and steepness might be unparalleled, with three thousand peculiar peaks crafted by nature, magnificent and perilous, primitive and lush, with clear lakes, and scenic spots everywhere. When you see Zhangjiajie, you will only feel at a loss for words, so much so that it's insufficient to describe its beauty Note❗️There are many mosquitoes, and the ointment from local pharmacies is super effective.

There is no specific season to visit National park, but you must be ready for thousands of tourists because it’s one of the famous attraction in China. #travel #gooutside #summervacation #nationalpark #zhangjiajie #zhangjiajietravel #hunan #chinatravel

Address: Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, Wulingyuan District, Zhangjiajie City Zhangjiajie Hehua Airport is the nearest airport to Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, about 40 km away. To get to the destination you can take a flight to Zhangjiajie Hehua Airport, then take city bus 402, 4 or taxi to Zhangjiajie Central Bus Station, then take a bus to Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. Tickets: CNY 228/person, valid for 4 days. Sightseeing bus is included (Bailong elevator is excluded). I've been crazy about this place for years (after watching Avatar movie of course), but it was a bit far and kinda complicated to get to, so I couldn't fulfill my dream. But finally it happened! It was breathtaking and it's one of the must-visit places in the world. As a part of the natural heritage – Wulingyuan scenic area, Huangshi Village has been well-preserved. Therefore, there are many wild animals living in the mountain, especially wild monkeys. Don't take any food with you (or try to hide it at least), coz monkeys can attack you. #zhangjiajie #avatarmountains #themepark
