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

The area that became famous from the movie Avatar. Photos can never do this place justice. It's one of those areas you have to witness with your own eyes.

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

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

Located in northwest of the Zhangjiajie city downtown, the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park is the first national forest park in China. On September 25, 1982, with the approval of the State Council of the People's Republic of China, the original Zhangjiajie Forest Farm was officially named "Zhangjiajie National Forest Park".The large natural park covers an area of 130 square kilometers and was listed as a UNESCO Global Geopark in 2004. It is famous for its queer stone and peaks, deep valleys and beautiful forests. The forest park contains nearly over 3,000 peaks, some of which are shaped like animals or objects. These unique and splendid peaks together with peaceful streams and strange trees earn countless reputation from tourists over the world.This park together with Tianzi Mountain Nature Reserve, Yuanjiajie Scenic Area, Suoxiyu Nature Reserve and Yangjiajie Scenic Area makes up the Wulingyuan Scenic Area, also known as Zhangjiajie Scenic Spot. This geographic natural park attracts thousands of travelers every year, including hiking lovers. #最型旅行體驗#親子好去處#主題公園指南

Getting There - We took a flight from Beijing direct to Zhangjiajie. From there, our hotel organised a driver to pick us up (6 of us), which cost around 200rmb. Attractions - Zhangjiajie national park! Hotels - we stayed at Zhangjiajie Super Mountain hotel. It had a pool and gorgeous views of the mountains. It was a 10 minute walk (absolute maximum) from the park entrance. It also served great Chinese food, had a pool table and the staff were very accommodating. There wasn’t much else around the hotel in terms of restaurants, just a couple of shops selling necessities. If you’d prefer to be closer to the action, the Pullman and Crowne Plaza were a stones throw away from a different entrance which also had lots of more of restaurants and shops. Food & Restaurants - McDonalds within the park, and a KFC / Starbucks on the outside of the park but within walking distance of the entrances. Shopping - lots of small souvenir shops! #unforgettableexperiences#couplestrip#deliciousfood#historicculture#beautifulsunsets#nationalpark#roadtrip#summervacation#beachvacation#hikingtrails#hotelstay#urbanexplorer
