    Zhangjiajie.Zhangjiajie Downtown Area
    >100km from Shishou
    Highlights: Tianmenshan National Forest Park is named after the natural wonder "Tianmen Cave". When visiting the Attraction, you must take a cable car about 7,500 meters long. You can overlook the Tongtian Avenue and the beautiful scenery of the mountains hovering between the cliffs below. The brave ones can also walk on the glass plank road hanging on the wall and experience the excitement of walking in the air.Tianmenshan National Forest Park is close to Zhangjiajie city. The Tianmen Cave in the mountain is a natural cave that penetrates the mountain. Local people believe that it can lead directly to heaven. For ordinary tourists, Tianmen Cave is not open all year round. In winter every year, due to snow and ice on the road, Tianmen Cave and Tongtian Avenue (a winding mountain road with 99 bends) leading to Tianmen Cave will be closed.The lower station of the Attraction's cableway is located in Guanliping, Yongding District, and the upper station is at the top of Tianmen Mountain. In 2020, the Attraction opened an express line, with the lower station near the gate of Tianmen Mountain and the upper station near the Tianmen Cave parking lot.Tianmenshan National Forest Park is full of towering ancient trees and entwined vines. The Attraction is divided into several main areas, including Tianmen Cave, the middle line, the east line and the west Attraction. Visitors can choose different routes and areas to play according to their preferences and physical strength.The core attraction of the middle line is the Tianmen Mountain Temple and the "Child-Seeking Cave" near the temple. According to folklore, the Goddess of Complimentary appeared here, and if you make a sincere wish, you will get children. The highlight of the west line is a 60-meter-long "glass plank road" built on a cliff. The road under your feet is made of transparent glass. When you walk on it, you can see the abyss under your feet. While you are terrified, you can also feel the joy of walking in the air. Currently, the east line and Panlong Cliff have also opened up glass plank roads about 60 meters long.You can't stay in the Attraction, so you can only visit it in one day. There is a "Cherry Bay Restaurant" near Tianmenshan Temple, which provides snacks and fast food.Near the lower station of the Tianmen Mountain Cableway, there is a shuttle bus that takes you to the Canyon Grand Theater, where you can watch the live performance and the magical musical "Tianmen Fox Fairy". The story is adapted from the myth "Liu Hai Cuts Wood", and tells a touching love story between a man and a fox. Live music, lighting, and fascinating scenes such as the oversized moon, the transformation of the fox spirit, the flying snow, and the high-altitude flying bridge fully display this legendary love.

More than 3,000 mountain peaks of various shapes are congregated here in the park, forming a spectacular scenery. The park was thrust into foreign travelers' eyes after the booming success of the movie “Avatar”, in which the Hallelujah Mountains were inspired by the Heavenly piller of Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. The main attractions in the park are Yuanjiajie, Tianzi Peak, Golden Whip Stream and Yellow Stone Village. The mountains have peculiar shapes, often surrounded by fog and mist giving visitors a view similar to the drawings of a traditional chinese painting.
