Zhangjiajie National Forest Park: 4 Days of Adventure in Avatar Mountains of Hunan China
Follow my 4 days adventure to Zhangjiajie National Forest Park where the highlight of this Zhangjiajie travel guide focuses on national park, Avatar mountains, Zhangjiajie Hunan's food, Xibu night market, the infamous Zhangjiajie bridge, the spectacular view of the heaven view from a cable car and the Tujia Minority. The main attraction which is the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park is where lies the heavenly view of the natural scenery. Located in Hunan, Zhangjiajie Park's beauty even attracted legendary film maker, James Cameroon to select the Zhangjiajie Mountain as the backdrop of the Hallelujah Mountain in the mystical planet of Pandora in the movie, AVATAR. My 4 days of Zhangjiajie itinerary and travel guide as below:
★Day 1
The first day of my Zhangjiajie trip brought me to the Yellow Dragon Cave aka Huanglong Cave. Yellow Dragon Cave, known as the wonder of the world's caves, is one of the largest caverns in China. It is a karst cave, full of stalagmites, stalactites, underground streams, and large caverns. Exploring the cave, I need to navigate up and down the stairs as well as taking boats to reach the others part of the cavern.
During the night I explore the ordinary street of Zhangjiajie.
★Day 2
Second day starts by a tour to Hallelujah Mountains (previously knowns as Southern Sky Column). Hallelujah Mountain is located in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in the Wulingyuan Area of Hunan Province. The beauty of these natural wonder inspires the floating mountain in the world of Pandora of James Cameroon's Avatar. Hallelujah Mountains is accessible by cable car. Avatar Mountains China 2018
At the night, I explored the tourist must visit pedestrian walk, Xibu Street. Here, there are plenty street performance, cultural shows, street foods, restaurant, local delicacy, exotic food and many hand made souvenir.
★Day 3
After 2 days of wonderful scenery shock, it's time for me to relax. My first stop on the third day is the Jinbian Stream aka Golden Whip Stream. This is where you can relax with pristine water, verdant mountains and cool weather.
Second stop of the days is the 10 miles natural gallery. To explore, you either either choose to walk or take the train. As the name implies, 10 Miles Gallery feature a wonderful view of natural mountain that resembles human, animal, god and beast. At the end of the 10 miles natural gallery is the Monkey Garden. Had some fun with the monkey over there!
Third stop of the day is the highlight my Zhangjiajie trip, the longest and highest glass bridge in China at the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon. Experience the thrilling feeling of height of Zhangjiajie National ForestPark glass bridge by standing on transparent glass bridge. It might be scary at first but it become normal later on. From the Zhangjiajie glass bridge, I go down to the bottom of the canyon through the cliff plank road. Halfway through, I am given choice of taking elevator or keep going through the cliff plank road. I chose the plank. And my perseverance was rewarded when I met with a local Tujia minority couple and have a short conversation with them. Pushing downward, I was welcomed by a calm turquoise lake. At the end of the route, I leave Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon by boat.
★Day 4
The fourth and final day, I visited the TianMen Mountain. Tianmen mountain is famous for its spectacular view from the cable cars, 999 steps Heaven's Gate and glass plank road or glass walkway. To be honest, the view from the tops of TianMen is the closest resembles of Heaven on the Earth. Last day of the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park trip ends and we travel to Changsha for a flight home.

The Most Beautiful Place in China: Avatar Mountains Of Zhangjiajie (China Vlog 2019 张家界)
China's Zhangjiajie national park is home to perhaps the most unique landscape you'll ever see. The Zhangjiajie national forest park holds over 3,000 quartzite rock towers that form an incredible forest in the sky, complete with foggy peaks and lush greenery. These pinnacles, some of which are over 1 kilometer (!) high, were the inspiration for the floating mountains in the Avatar movie. Let's go get some vertigo, shall we? ;)
We cannot recommend visiting the Avatar mountains China highly enough if you are (thinking of) planning in the region! 张家界

My First Trip to Zhangjiajie 张家界
Welcome to Hanif's Video. Hope You really enjoy it...
================
Zhangjiajie (simplified Chinese: 张家界; traditional Chinese: 張家界; pinyin: Zhāngjiājiè) is a prefecture-level city in the northwestern part of Hunan province, People's Republic of China. It comprises the district of Yongding and counties of Cili and Sangzhi. Within it is located Wulingyuan Scenic Area which was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1992 as well as an AAAAA scenic area by the China National Tourism Administration.
The new name of Zhangjiajie City was adopted in 1994, after the National Forest Park in the Wulingyuan Scenic Area (武陵源) in order to give it more prominence and after this site had been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1992. The National Forest Park had been given the name of Zhangjiajie after the name of a small village located within its bounds, and now a popular tourist attraction within the park. The three-character name (张家界) can be interpreted as follows: Zhang (张) is a common surname in China; jia (家) can be translated as family; and jie (界) can be translated as homeland, giving the completed translation of Zhang family homeland. It has been reported that at least one tourist guide has said that the name may have been chosen to convey the idea or impression of Open the family door to welcome the world (张开家门引进世界), but this is not the locally accepted and directly-translated meaning of the name. The official version of its name is linked to a Han general, Zhang Liang, who resettled in the area after a suspicious Liu Bang, the Han emperor, started to persecute his staffs and generals who had contributed to his becoming emperor. It was so named to signify that the Zhang family had set up home there.
The Wulingyuan Scenic and Historic Interest Area comprises the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, the Tianzishan (天子山) mountain ranges, Baofenghu (宝峰湖) and the Suoxi Valley (索溪峪), and is a very popular filming and tourist destination.
Also in the Zhangjiajie area, Huanglongdong (黄龙洞) and Longwangdong (龙王洞) are caves known for many natural rock formations (much like Wulingyuan) and its underground cataract.
The Bailong Elevator is also located in the area.
Each year, Zhangjiajie hosts the International Country Music Week Festival,[4] which has featured international acts such as American Country Music group Lucy Angel.
The Zhangjiajie Airport services scheduled service to major airports in China. It is about 5 km away from the downtown and 30 km away from Wulingyuan Scenic Area. There are domestic flights available between Zhangjiajie and other cities, such as Changsha, Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou etc. Flights between Zhangjiajie and Seoul, Busan are also available.

Changsha, the Gateway to Zhangjiajie — China | The Travel Intern
So you might have heard of the Avatar Hallelujah Mountains and all of its grandeur. HOWEVER!! It can get pretty tricky planning a trip there.
But before we let you in on our tips~ Here’s an article for you:
CHANGSHA (00:33)
00:40 - Huangxing Road
This walking street stretches SO a couple kilometres, but even if you walk from one end to the other, it won’t feel like you’ve walked several rounds around the track because there are endless things to eat, see and buy!
01:11 - Yuelu Shan (Mount Yuelu)
01:25 - Chuan Shi Po Lake
Also known as Yuelu Mountain, it’s a pretty sweet getaway from the city of Changsha!
*Pro-tip: Bring your student IDs for 50% off tickets up!
01:41 - Meixihu Cultural & Arts Center
Feels like you’ve stepped into another world.. Really. The infrastructure is crazy huge, and even with our lil mavic birdie up in the air to the MAX ALT HEIGHT, it couldn’t capture a top-down shot encompassing the whole campus!
01:53 - Juzizhou (Orange Isle)
Here’s where you can visit the iconic landmark of Changsha — Chairman Mao’s head! Tour the museum to find out more about his background and life story~
02:20 - Xihulou (West Lake Restaurant)It’s not everyday you get to dine in Asia’s largest Chinese restaurant… The food is pretty sick too, and you get to choose between different mini restaurants inside!
ZHANGJIAJIE (02:43)
02:46 - Laowuchang
This is believed to be the best sunrise spot in Zhangjiajie National Park, recommended to us by locals!
02:58 - Avatar Hallelujah Mountain
Here’s what you came for — the very, very, very famous Hallelujah Mountain. It was used as the inspiration of the Avatar movie’s other-worldly landscape.
03:09 - Bailong Elevator
It’s quite an experience, descending into the depths of ZJJ National Park!
03:22 - Baofeng Lake
Take a soothing, serene boat ride through Baofeng Lake to end the day~
03:35 - Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge
This is also another super famous and iconic landmark in ZJJ, but beware though, at ALL hours through the day, it’s going to be a crowded time. But don’t let that stop you from exploring different ways to pose for a picture ;-)
*Pro-tip: Get inspo from the locals themselves, they’re pretty solid at that.
03:57 - Tianmen Mountain
04:09 - Glass Bottom Cliffside Path
Tianmen Mountain is situated nearer to the city of ZJJ, not high up where the national park is, so do take note! Also, yay to more glass bottom bridges and paths!!
Next Wednesday, we’ll be bringing you more in-depth tips on how to scale Zhangjiajie, it’ll be super duper useful, so stay tuned!!

My Biggest Mistake in China? | Zhangjiajie National Forest Park
Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in China's Hunan Province is known to be one of the most stunningly beautiful places in the world - a UNESCO World Heritage Site that inspired the movie Avatar with its more than 3,000 sandstone pillars and peaks, some higher than 200 meters/660 feet. Unfortunately, my adventures in the Avatar Mountains with its glass bridge and grand canyon and Tianzi Mountain didn't go as planned...Around the 3:50 mark, I talk about how my friends and I have been rethinking our framing around regret and 'bad' decision making. I'd love to hear your thoughts on that or anything else in the video!
