Zhangjiajie National Forest Park

Zhangjiajie National Forest Park is divided into Huangshizhai, Jinbianxi, Yuanjiajie, Yangjiajie, Tianzi Mountain and Suoxiyu. It is a must-see attraction in Zhangjiajie. More than 3,000 strangely shaped peaks rise from the ground, and the scenery is green. Clouds and mists linger between the peaks and valleys, and waterfalls and streams can be seen everywhere. The floating mountain "Hallelujah Mountain" in the movie "Avatar" was also filmed here. I believe that movie fans will not be unfamiliar with this place.Zhangjiajie's nicknameZhangjiajie has too many names, which often confuses many tourists. Before visiting, you must first understand the relationship between these scenic spots and attractions.Zhangjiajie and Zhangjiajie National Forest ParkZhangjiajie is a prefecture-level city in Hunan Province and a popular tourist city in China. The city's scenic spots include Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, Tianmenshan National Forest Park, Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon, etc. Most people come to Zhangjiajie to visit Zhangjiajie's core scenic spot - Zhangjiajie National Forest Park.Zhangjiajie National Forest Park and Wulingyuan Scenic AreaZhangjiajie National Forest Park and Wulingyuan Scenic Area are actually the same scenic area, with the same ticket, but with different names. There are five ticket stations in the scenic area, of which Wulingyuan Ticket Station and Forest Park Ticket Station are the two main entrances.Highlights of the scenic areaYuanjiajie: Landing on Pandora from AvatarYuanjiajie is the filming location of the "Hallelujah Mountain" in the movie "Avatar". Here you can explore the magical world of floating mountains and dotted with stars in the movie. If it happens to rain in the mountains, or wait until the sun clears up after the rain, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of foggy and overlapping peaks. The Mihun Terrace is an ideal viewing point. Standing on the terrace, there are hundreds of stone peaks standing around, which are magnificent. Here you can also see the world's first bridge that spans between two mountains with a vertical height difference of 357 meters.Tianzi Mountain: The Emperor Returns Without Looking at MountainsWhen you visit Tianzi Mountain, you will see various strange geological landscapes and peaks, such as Yubi Peak, Fairy Offering Flowers, Dianjiangtai, Sky Garden, and Fairy Bridge. You don't have to worry too much about whether these natural shapes look like or not, because the "original scenery and natural beauty" are the charm of Tianzi Mountain. Especially in the hazy fog after the rain, it feels like being in a fairyland. When winter comes, the mountains are covered with silver, and the scenery is even more charming.Huangshizhai: Climb to the top and see all the other mountains"If you don't climb Huangshizhai, you've been to Zhangjiajie in vain." Huangshizhai is a viewing platform in Zhangjiajie Forest Park, surrounded by cliffs and lush trees, and the top of the village is often covered with clouds and mist. Climbing to the top of Huangshizhai and looking around, you can experience the pride of "looking down on all the mountains".Yangjiajie: Seeking excitement amidst dangerYangjiajie is mainly characterized by pristine scenery and natural beauty. It has high mountains and narrow roads. It is famous for being "dangerous" and is very popular among backpackers and explorers. Wulong Village in the scenic area is a very magical place in Zhangjiajie. Bandits from western Hunan used to live here. It was later renamed according to the TV series "Wulong Mountain Bandit Suppression". The cottage is built on the mountain, and there is a road up and down the mountain. You need to use both hands and feet to climb to the top of the mountain.Suoxiyu: Natural ink-splashed landscape paintingSuoxi Valley is also called Suoxi because the shape of the stream in the scenic area is like a rope. Unlike other places in the forest park, it is surrounded by clouds and mist all year round. The clear stream flows all year round, and beautiful peaks can be seen everywhere. The Ten-mile Gallery is the highlight of Suoxi Valley. In the 5-kilometer-long canyon, there are fragrant wild flowers and strange peaks and rocks. Walking through it is like walking into a natural landscape painting.Golden Whip Stream: Filming Location of Journey to the WestThe Golden Whip Creek Canyon is the earliest developed area in the scenic area. A clear stream runs through the valley, with towering peaks on both sides, and the view is full of green. This is also one of the filming locations of the classic version of "Journey to the West". Movie fans can come here to see classic scenes such as the Water Curtain Cave and Splitting the Mountain to Save the Mother.
