Zhangjiajie

Zhangjiajie

Zhangjiajie is a world-famous quartz sandstone peak forest wonderland. Thousands of towering peaks rise from valleys, shrouded in mist. It integrates peaks, gorges and caves, an ideal destination for nature sightseeing.

Zhangjiajie is a mountain wonderland like a scene from fantasy paintings. Millions of years of geological changes formed its unique quartz sandstone peak forest. Stone pillars pierce the sea of clouds. When mist drifts over peaks, valleys look ethereal, just like a magical world.

Walk along Jinbian Stream beside strange peaks, or stand on Yuanjiajie to overlook the grand Hallelujah Mountain. Tianmen Cave hangs on the cliff, and thrilling glass plank roads cling to precipices. Mountains, waters, clouds and rocks blend here with rich Tujia culture. Spectacular scenery and ethnic customs create breathtaking natural wonders.
